1578 Words
Yuri's POV Jack keeps on insisting to drive me home as he keeps on following me in his car. "I'm okay, don't bother. I'm used to walking. Our house is just near here," I strongly refused. I don't want to be fooled by his kindness even though he's handsome it's not enough reason for me to trust him. It's hard to imagine what he will do to me again. He just shrugged his shoulders in response and then smiled insultingly as he crashed his car and left a solid smoke that caused me to cough so hard. Why did that man behave like that? He was so arrogant and proud. His behavior is so disturbing. Why he always sees me? When will he get tired of bullying me? "Hey, Sweety, are you saying something?" I was abruptly startled when I heard my Mom speak. I didn't realize that she was behind me. I turned to face her and forced a smile. I had just entered the house and I still couldn't get over Jack's arrogance and I couldn't stop talking to myself not knowing that my mom was just around. "No ... nothing, Mom, I'm just remembering our lecture earlier because It might be included in our exam next week," I said to excuse myself. "Oh, okay is that so?" she asked in pure confusion as if she doesn't believe me. "By the way, I'm going to the bakery to look after your father. I heard there are a lot of customers today and he needs my help. Take care of our home. I have prepared snacks for you and your sister, it's in the kitchen. Just eat your part and put your sister's portion aside, " Mom instructed. " Okay, Mom," I answered quickly. After Mom left, I went straight to our room to change my clothes and when I was done I walked right to the kitchen to have my snack but I was stunned and stop myself from getting inside when I heard a little voice as if there was a group of people talking inside our kitchen. I was uncertain and it was so weird to hear strange things in the kitchen for I know that I'm the only one inside the house. I felt so scared. My heart bit so fast because of the inexplicable fear. I took a deep breath before deciding to peek inside the kitchen but I didn't see anyone in it. Our kitchen was very clean and everything was in order. I wondered why I heard something strange like a group of small people chatting. Am I just overthinking it? At first, I was hesitant to enter the kitchen but reasoning that maybe it was just my imagination makes me feel good besides, who can enter here if the whole house is well locked? I went inside and sat on the chair. I opened the covered food that was served on the table. I soon felt hungry when I smelled the aroma of Carbonara. This is one of mom's specialties, she puts four kinds of cheese into it to become more creamy and deliciously tasty. I'm so excited and can't wait. I quickly got a plate and fork. I then went to the refrigerator to get a drink. I saw the four seasons juice in a can and immediately took it. I enjoy eating carbonara with garlic bread. Mom is the best. I have nothing to say, everything is obligated when it comes to us. We are very lucky because she's our Mom and of course, we're so lucky also to have our Dad. We were very fortunate because we have given loving and responsible parents and we had nothing more to ask for. The only thing we could give back to them is to study hard. Suri and I tried to make our studies go well. My only wish is for those bullies in our school to stop bothering me. I want my life to be normal again because it has not been ordinary since I entered OU. I feel so hopeless while sighing. I'm here in our school canteen but I don't have any food to buy. Nothing fits in the money I have in my hand. The foods here are not fair as if only the rich can buy and the poor like me will just stare at them and wait until the end of the recess. I don't complain about the allowance that my parents gave to me, it's just that sometimes it's so hurtful. Even though I know it's bad to be jealous but I can't help myself but feel that way. All the students in this school are born rich and they can buy and get whatever they want easily. I was alone at the table while most of the students were eating in groups. Nobody wants to be friends with me at this school but it's okay, I also don't want to be pliable with them. They have nothing else to talk about but how expensive the clothes, shoes, and bags they are wearing and it's so irritating to hear. Sometimes I even want to put cotton in my ear so I can't hear them bragging. It's so annoying and not helpful. I decided to just stand up and leave. I would not be awarded if I stayed in this place I would be even hungrier. I was about to start walking when abruptly someone pulled my hand, I was surprised to see Shin. I looked at his hand holding mine and then looked back at his face surprisingly. "Why are you leaving when you haven't even eaten yet?" he asked me without even smiling. "Oh... hmmm... I realize that I'm still full so, I'll just go back to my classroom," I replied. He still doesn't let go of my hand and the students look at us in disbelief, others are envious but most are looking so mad at me. What is this man doing? If it was just a bad look that was deadly, maybe I was startled on the floor because of the sharp stares of those girls on me. I wasn't doing anything wrong, Shin is the one who touched on me. I got even more shocked when he dragged me and forced me to sit on the empty chair. I would have spoken to protest but when I looked up, I saw Jack sitting next to me. His eyebrows rose and his forehead furrowed. "What is that girl doing here?" he asked Shin irritatedly. "She's going to eat with us," he said like it was nothing me joining them. "I do__" I was about to speak when the two men in front of me stopped me, they gestured to me not to make noise so I just keep my mouth shut and sat down properly. Shin, immediately called staff at the canteen to serve food for us. I couldn't sit still as if I just wanted the earth to swallow me in irrational embarrassment. Who would be comfortable eating with these two handsome men in front of you? Lots of delicious food was served on the table. It's like Shin ordered all the food in the canteen and it's so unbelievable of him. As he signaled me to start eating, Jack just stared at me intently like he has no plan to eat but to just watch me eating. Will I consider myself lucky because I can eat these delicious foods for free or it's a punishment that I have to finish it all? It was likely I was fighting in a marathon eating contest because I ate so fast. The two are sitting next to me and so surprised as if they had just seen someone strange other than me. I wash away my food instantly so that I can finish quickly and not get stuck in front of them. My situation was so troublesome that I think almost all the eyes inside the school canteen were on me. When will I be free from the punishment of these people? All I want is to study but why is there so much happening to me that I don't wish for? "Now I feel relief because you have eaten a lot. Look how thin and pale you are. It is not nice seeing you like that," Shin told me. I just stared at him. What is his right to criticize me face to face? He was very inconsiderate of how I would feel. "Hey, Shin, are you saying that because you are concerned about her and you like her? It's very unusual for you, " Jack said as if teasing, he had been watching us the whole time. Shin frowned at what Jack said. He looked at him in disbelief. "Never in my whole life that I valued a person most especially a woman like her and it is not in my vocabulary to be serious with them. I am just disturbed to look at this weak creature," he replied irritatedly. "Ha...ha...ha..." Jack laughed out loud as if Shin's anger was not a big deal for him. "Okay, you said that and I believe in you but don't get mad if I take her from you," Jack said trying to piss Shin. Shin looked at him in incredulity. I was just stunned. I couldn't believe they were talking to me as if I wasn't in front of them.
