Chapter 3 Whs
- AUDREY’s POV
- "Look at her shoes, I'm sure she bought them from the market of ancient," One of the girls said.
- "And her hair, so rough and snobbish"
- "She looks weird"
- They insulted me and hurried to catch up with Simon, a handsome but rude guy.
- I would have treated their fvck up instead I shot them a hard glare because they’re right, I don't belong here, I don't.
- This is all Mom's fault. Oh no!
- "Hey, Audrey... Right? " Someone called.
- I fought back the wanting-to-drop tears.
- Wait, was I gonna cry? Ugh!
- "Hi" I looked up to him
- Him? Why is it another him?
- "I'm Kyle," He said, smiling widely.
- "You know my name" I replied sheepishly.
- "Yeah Audrey and you are a newbie"
- "Yeah," I said turning away from him.
- Staying away from any more trouble.
- "I saw what just happened and you are still sitting here," He said.
- "Yes? "
- "Are you out of your mind? Those girls or even the guy could hurt you when they return and still sees you sitting here. And well, I don't have a seatmate if you don't mind" He said pointing to his seat which was at the center of the class.
- "And then, some girls would come here too and yell at me again right? " I said adamantly.
- "I'm not leaving this place" I added, shaking my head.
- "Hey, you are a newbie. There is much you don't know, I need to enlighten you" He pulled me by my arm to his seat and made me sit next to him.
- "Be my seat partner" He proposed.
- I rolled my eyes, trying not to smile.
- Well, I'm glad someone is trying to make friends with me.
- "Simon is a very popular guy" He resumed.
- "So? " I smirked.
- "That's why he is so pompous and rude ¿ and so many girls drool over him," The Kyle guy said.
- I gave another eye roll "That's a lame reason, you said the guy is so arrogant ..how would some stupid girls drool over such an attitude? ugh! "
- "Well, as you already know this school is filled with rich students. Simon is the wealthiest, his father owns all the wealth"
- "An over-statement obviously" I scorned. "How stupid of you, boasting about someone else's wealth," I said and he frowned and turned away... That's because I called him stupid.
- "I'm sorry" I quickly apologized.
- I'm still new here, I know I'm so brave but I shouldn't start stepping on people's nerves yet.
- Besides, in a class of 20 students, I think...He is the only one willing to talk to me.
- "I'm sorry" I repeated softly.
- He smiled and turned to me not reluctantly.
- I love this kinda guy. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I'm the kind of girl with multiple crushes. Lol or maybe I am only enjoying his company, it’s not a crush.
- "But, what the hell, he is just a student, not a celebrity or something and you're telling me he is famous? "
- "He is the talk of the internet, you sure have a cell phone, don't you? His father is very prosperous, would you believe it if I tell you he built this school and he owns so many buildings here in Wearous estate even in other estates? " Kyle rushed all words.
- "It's okay; like I don't wanna hear more because I don't care," I said "The key part about the guy is he lacks good manners and you are pretending not to be his friend"
- "Never! I can never befriend " He exclaimed
- "Well, Whatever," I said and he looked at me with keen interest and he smiled. "Uhm? What is it?” I asked.
- "You are different from other girls, you are not crazy or so happy about the fact that I said Simon is the richest guy in the school," He said.
- "Oh. Nonsense, why would I? "
- "You know. Most girls are after Simon because of his money. That's what 99.5% of girls do. When a guy has a lot of money, they stick to you more than glue" He expatiated.
- These words hit me so hard, it's the same mistake my mom made and unfortunately, the guy jilted her _ my supposed father.
- "I hope my instinct about you is right. I dislike Simon and it would hurt me if I find out that you are one of those girls that wants him" He said.
- Ok, please can someone bail me out from this loquacious guy?
- Just in time,
- Oh Good, someone came to save me from this guy.
- "Hi Kyle, Hi Newbie" A girl walked toward us and said.
- "I'm Audrey" I don't like being called Newbie.
- "Meet Elena, my friend," Kyle said and Elena stretched her hands to have a handshake with me. Then we shook hands.
- Wait! The first set of people I met were unfair but, I'm so glad to have them.
- "You are welcome to Wearous High School," She said to me and I smiled - remembering how I never wanted to be here at first because I thought there won't be nice people that would want to make friends with me but here they are; Kyle and Elena.
- "So tomorrow, we would go on a tour around the school and I'll tell you some things you ought to know" Elena offered.
- "Well, I already told her," Kyle said.
- She gave him a light punch on his shoulder and said "When would you stop being a reporter?" and I laughed.
- Right, he's kind of a talkative but jovial one.
- "Whatever, Hey Audrey, I'm all yours tomorrow, we will tour around the school," Elena said to me.
- "Err... Well, I do not need to go walk around the school... There are guides and instructions that I can follow" I told her.
- "Oh Okay. " Elena said and Kyle mocked, showing her his tongue.
- Simon returned to the classroom and those girls were still with him, the three of them.. acting like mosquitoes. But seriously, don't they have work to do?
- As if he was looking for me, He ( The Simon guy) turned to where I sat and I froze.
- He scoffed and went to his seat. Maybe Kyle was right. If I hadn't left, he would have been on my neck.
