Raylie
I was surprised and didn’t realize I slipped my tongue. I turned to Vivienne who was throwing a death glare at me.
“I mean nursing her pocket since she was broke, as you said. She accidentally broke my friend's phone.” I immediately amended what I just said.
“Oh, I am so sorry for that. Is the problem has been settled? How am I going to repay you, then?”
“That’s nothing, Mrs. Alfonso.”
“Oh, join us for dinner, then. I'll just prepare the table.”
“Mom! You shouldn’t feed this brute. The stocks were just enough for us for a month!” Vivienne yelled at her Mom who went to the kitchen.
“Nah! Giving him dinner would not hurt. After all, you are indebted to him.”
“Indebted my ass.” She whispered, shooting a dark glare at me. “What book do you need to borrow? Tell me then leave!
Vivienne“Heck! What am I going to do now?” I cursed under my breath.I stayed outside the classroom. I am afraid to enter the classroom. It just now that it dawned to me what I just said to Raylie last night. I've acted recklessly and let my pride ruled over me.What if he told everyone that I am living in slumps? Well, I know how society treated those in the lower class. Not that I am just embarrassed. It’s actually one of the things. But the main reason I want to keep it is to avoid getting my life worst than ever.I turned my back. I was still in doubt. But what if he suddenly grows a heart? I remembered he genuinely said to my mother that he likes our food. That night, I saw a totally different version of Raylie’s personality.“Penny for your thoughts?”I turned to face the guy who talks behind me.“Why are you still outs
Vivienne “Can I have a moment, Vivienne?” Sheena approached just right until we've got dismissed from the last morning's subjects. “Sure.” I smiled. I was still in deep thought. What Thore said lingered in my head. “What is it?” “Didn’t I promised to introduced you to our club president?” “Oh. I almost forgot!” “Let’s go?” The next thing I knew, Sheena and I were walking out of the classroom. On the way, I saw Raylie, leaning against the wall. He seems to wait for someone else. When we met each other’s eyes, he stands up straight and meets me halfway. “Let’s have lunch together.” He bluntly said, looking straight at me. I was surprised to hear that. I honestly prefer him to act like a brute rather than this all gentlemanly. And what is his deal now? What is he planning to do? Why would he suddenly ask me to eat with him? “Whoa! Did I hear it right? Raylie was asking her ou
VivienneWe enter the room and were greeted by two broadcasters still on the air. Luckily the club president was still there and doing something. Sheena introduced me to him. I was easily accepted into the club and given a light task.“We have a club meeting by three in the afternoon, I was expecting the newcomer to attend.”I nodded at Jayden, the club president. We were dismissed after some words. Sheena and I went to the school pantry to get our lunch.“I have packed lunch with me,” I told her in embarrassment.Students of Brixtons were going out for lunch. Some eat and ordered food at the school pantry. But because I wanted to save, I used to bring packed lunch. Sometimes, I skipped lunch when I was too sleepy to do so.“Great! I have mine, as well!” Sheena exclaimed.“You do?” I was surprised to see her pulling out her pa
VivienneI stretched my arm and my shoulder while walking down the university’s parking area. We had a two-hour club meeting. I didn’t expect the meeting to be a lot of fun. I thought the club president was so uptight. But it turns out, Jayden knows how to joke around. The meeting wasn’t boring, thanks to him.I yawned. I was near my scooter but a firm hand grabbed my wrist and pulled me somewhere. Later, I was slammed into the wall. My eyes widened in shock when I finally noticed who it was.I narrowed my eyes on him. “Idiot! What are you doing?!”I tried to get away from him. But Raylie used his strong arms to corner me. He leaned his hands against the wall and looked at me intently.I looked around. Good thing no one’s around. I don’t really want to join Raylie’s little show in front of the other students.And what is this? Why would he catch me and
RaylieAfter several minutes, Mr. Lewis came, brought his book. The cover seems old. When did he buy that one?“Young master, I am going to ask you questions then you have to answer it truthfully.”“Alright. Fire away the questions.” I said and laid my back on the metal bench near the pool while waiting for the questions.“Do you like a girl or a guy?”I threw a dark glare at Mr. Lewis. “Do you have a death wish? Do you think I am gay?!”“Y-Young master, I was just reading the question.”“Then you should not ask me the questions you already know the answer to!” I irritatingly snapped.“I'm sorry, young master.” Mr. Lewis wrote down something on the paper.“Next question is, what kind of girl is he/she? Was she A: demure/gentle or B: snob/brute/wild“I told you already! She wa
Vivienne‘I really wanted to eat with you.’What does it mean? Why would he ask me that way? Is he changing tactics? Sure he is. That egoistic brute! He might not be over it. I don’t mean to put him into embarrassment. It’s his fault that he was embarrassed. He toyed me! He should know that I am not the kind who he can play around with.“That asshole!”“Huh? Are you referring to me?”I turned to Aria who got flustered from my sudden outburst. In front of us are the mountains of pieces of denim we are folding.I smiled at her. “Not you. I was referring to my asshole classmate who used to pester me.”
Raylie“Seriously? She doesn’t like it?”We were in the cafeteria and having a snack. I just can’t take it. Ms. Heartbreaker didn’t give me a second glance.“Who would like that? Your sense of fashion was… horrible.""And cheap.”I glared at the twins.“Have you eaten a leftover moldy food that you suddenly turned to someone we didn’t know?”“Nah! Loki, he must be a fake. He is not the real Raylie. He must have choked our friend.” Logan yelled, exaggerating the situation.
RaylieWhat? A recorded line? Are they kidding me?I just couldn’t help but get annoyed at the announcer. Who is that punk, huh?“Whoa! I couldn’t believe the broadcasting team was that great. They copied your voice, really well.”Loki leaned his arm on my shoulder. I was in the field already. I couldn’t believe Vivienne pushed me hard just like that. Then, I heard the uproar of the students. My voice was heard in all the corners of Brixtons University, proclaiming myself to a girl. I don’t knowUgh!I breathed harshly. What is Vivienne thinking denying it all? She should be grateful, instead. It’s her time to be popular. If she sticks with me, she'll enjoy the same privileges that the Titans had. She can skip classes without getting failing grades. No one will ever bully her
