Chapter02

I felt someone nudged on my arm and saw a woman in white coat staring at me. I glanced at her nametag.

Mrs. Carrie Arabella.

"The school clinic will be closing now. Do you have someone you can call at home to assist you?" she asked in a professional manner. Her hair is loose and beautifully curled. Her skin was white and her eyes were green.

I shake my head. That woman rarely goes home.

"I'll take care of myself." I took a deep breath before pushing myself up and lean on the wall. She helped me up and clean my wounds.

"You sure have it rough." Mrs. Arabella frowned while dumping a small sanitized cotton on my forehead. She then handed me a pain reliever for my broken rib.

I didn't say anything because what would I say on something that is neither an opinion nor a comment?

I just remained silent since that's the best thing to do.

"Go take a week of rest. You should go to a nearby hospital to get an X-ray to check other injuries. I will inform your teachers for your day off." Mrs. Arabella said after patching up the wound.

I nodded my head and my eyes darted towards the worn off bag which is pathetically lying on the chair. I guess Ethan brought it with him after I dozed off. I clicked my tongue after observing the bag. Was I that poor that I can't even buy a decent bag? The holes were just patched up by some random fabric.

"Will do, Doc." I said and picked up my bag and thanked the Doctor before leaving.

As I closed the door, a huge frame of body was in front of me and a familiar handsome kid was facing the door beside the clinic. His eyes were deep black and his hair is silver. His thin red lips and straight nose will make the girls swoon. And this face is so familiar to me since he's always at my parents' house. The Best friend of my little Brother, Eric Montreal. The setting sun light perfectly illuminates his clear skin making him look more appealing than before. The smile at his face and the soft and gentle gaze makes him suspicious. It's as if he's staring at his lover.

He was my previous crush. Now, I no longer feel the same after seeing him standing before me. He knew that he was one of the reasons why I was being constantly bullied by the others and he, never once, helped me to get out of those tough situations. It's not that he has an obligation but I realized how naïve I was back then for liking someone who never once cared about me. How pathetic I was for liking someone who never cared for my existence. From now on, I would no longer care about how other people perceived me nor would I love someone. I almost chuckled, am I even capable of loving?

"Lineal Kim?" I was pulled back to the present by a soothing and handsome voice. The thick furrowed eyebrows and a knee-melting gaze was directed to me.

"What's up?" I asked in a laid back manner. He seems baffled by my sudden change of behavior. I can't blame him though since the former Lineal Kim is a coward and always speak in a hushed manner. My confidence made him flabbergasted. I'm no longer afraid, I no longer care about other people.

"What are you looking at?" I took a step closer at him and took a peek at the window of the closed door to see what he's looking at. Just the mere conversation tires me out.

"I-it's nothing!" He suddenly covered the window with his large frame, his face flushed and sweat drips on his smooth forehead.

I eyed him suspiciously and a smirk plastered on my lips. "Is it someone you like?" I teased though I don't actually care.

His eyes darted anywhere but me. "W-What are you talking about?" He nervously chuckled.

His expression says everything. He has someone he likes

"What's this commotion?" The door suddenly opened and a familiar person. My heart beats faster and my body shivered. I badly want to throw myself to him and hugged him with all my might. I'm struggling between crying with loneliness and happiness.

"What are you doing here, Bitch? Are you here too flirt with Eric again?" Jenny Klark shrieks like a mad woman. I remember, she's also a part of a committee

"I smelled a stench of trash, I see they haven't picked you up yet." I emotionlessly said. What are you going to do about it little bitch?

"Ooohh." JD Park chuckled, amused at the sight before him. This punk never changed. He always enjoys whenever he sees people fight.

"It's funny hearing that from someone who can barely afford to buy anything without relying on my father. Both you and your mother." Jenny made a faint laugh with words laying on sarcasm.

I looked at her as if I'm looking at a pathetic fly, "Didn't your mother seduced father and get herself pregnant with you? Quit yapping your mouth as if your mother didn't covet someone who already has a lover. Your grandparents only obligated Mr. Klark to marry her. It's not like you were loved by your father either. He's just stuck with you and your sorry of a mother."

Jenny's face paled. She can't believe she was thoroughly humiliated in front of her crush, Eric and other few classmates inside the club room.

Eric was speechless and JD chuckled at the entertaining sight in front of him.

"It was a forced marriage? No wonder her attitude is like that."

"Her mom lacks elegance so that's why." the other students whispered on themselves.

"She's doing the same thing by coveting to Eric, didn't you see how mad she was when that nerd speaks to Eric? As far as I know Eric already has a lover."

You want gossip, Jenny Klark? I'll give you gossip. Since I'm already at the bottom, I'll drag you down with me.

"You bitch!" She raised a hand on me. I reacted on instinct and quickly grab her arm and hit her neck with a chop. I quickly grab her hair and swiftly hit her face with my other elbow. She fell on the ground with a loud thud, the movements were too fast for them to react.

"What the fck just happened?" The other students were dazed.

I stride towards her and stepped on her face. She shrieked while holding her broken nose and tears streaming down on her face, "Don't step on me, Bitch!" she pathetically shrieked while removing my foot on her face.

"I see you still have guts to run off that useless mouth of yours. I don't remember giving you the permission to order me around." I leaned towards her and look at straight in her eyes and spoke in a threatening voice, "Listen, and don't **** with me. The next time I see you shitting my name or my mother. I'm going to make you pay." I glared at her and kicked her fucking useless pretty face. She's all face but no brain.

"Woah, that was cool." JD clapped his hands as if he saw an awesome performance. JD had never seen this side of Lineal before. Had she finally lost it? Hahaha. JD laughed.

When Lineal lifted her foot from Jenny's face, Jenny with tears on her face, pathetically stood up and ran away while sobbing. It almost look pitiful. If you don't know what kind of person she actually is, you're going to think she was the one who was aggrieved instead of the other way around.
