Raylie
I WOKE up feeling irritated the next day. The scene at the school still lingers in my head. That girl’s words bother me a lot? I should not care, right? Why would I feel guilty over something that happened already? I could not change it anymore.
“Young master… it’s time to get up. You'll be late to school.” I heard one of the maids knocked on my door.
Sheesh! How am I going to attend school when I haven’t got the right sleep?
“Leave me alone! I'm not going to school!” I yelled without getting up.
“Young Master, your professors said the examination was near. You have to attend school, even for just a week.”
“Sheesh! Damn it! One more word and I'm going to fire you! And I swear, you'll never get a job anywhere in L City!”
The door suddenly went silent. Good thing it did. That was always the magic word for our maid
VivienneI AM ON my way home, driving the scratched scooter. I asked Vianna to take the public vehicle in going home. The scooter was still in a bad shape, I only opt to bear with it. Just like now, it suddenly stopped running. I tried to start it again but didn’t have any luck. I decided to guide it by hand until we reach the nearest auto shop.I sighed heavily while waiting to get my scooter fixed. I shoved my hand into my pocket only to fished a small card. It’s the schedule for the quarterly examination. And it will be next week. It would also mean that I need to update my tuition fee payment until this month, or I would not get the examination. Even though I was under a scholarship program, I still need to pay the miscellaneous fee and that was a big sum of money.We have lots of expenses right now. Mom's salary from being a service manager in a fast-food wasn't enough to pay all the bills. I don't want to bu
Vivienne WHAT happened to his face? That’s the question that suddenly popped inside my head when I saw Raylie the next day I went to school. He got bruised on the left side of his lips. I can easily tell since he has to pass by on my table before he reached his. Pokerfaced, Raylie took his seat. “What was that?” “That looks horrible.” “I can’t believe you’re coming to school having that on your face. Your such an egoistic guy who never showed his flaw.” Those were the conversation I heard from the back. It seems Raylie’s friends were enjoying teasing him. “I have no choice but to attend class school today.” I heard Raylie said in disgust. “Whoa! I heard Chloe was back.” And who was Chloe? I didn’t realize that I was frowning while eagerly listening to them. “Really?” I heard a series of laughter. It seems the boys were really having fun teasing Raylie.
Vivienne In the locker room… I am still lucky I have a spare shirt on my locker. I quickly cleaned myself and changed into it. I tried to wash the stains in my uniform. I had to clean it, or I won’t be able to attend my class. But the stains were too hard to wash. I almost give up. I made a mental check on how much I am going to earn for this week. Maybe I can still afford to buy a new uniform. Tomorrow is Friday, and it’s our washday. I still have time to purchase a new regular uniform without skipping a class. I sighed and sat on the bench in the middle of the locker room. Why am I so unlucky? I seem to attract all the bad luck in life. I take a look at my uniform. The stains were still visible. I can’t do anything with this. I was about to stand up and put the uniform in my locker when a girl suddenly approached me. She handed me a paper bag. I got confused. I don’t know the girl. Why is she giving me the p
VivienneIt was Saturday. I was busy calculating my allowance and the expenses when I noticed the door of our room opened. Vianna came in.I excitedly show her my first salary and give her some.Vianna smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. Regardless, she accepted the money and plopped on the bed.“I don't know how to conceal you to Mom anymore. What if she got home one night and found out that you are working at the laundry house?” Vianna sighed frustratedly.I almost forgot that we conceal about my part-time job at Mom. It was easy for us since Mom came home once in a while. She was transferred to the other city branch, and it was convenient for her to rent an apartment near her work. It would save her from everyday fare and stress. She wants us to join her, but we are in the middle of the semester, so it would be impossible for us to transfer again. Besides, I was so tired and sick of always moving from one sch
RaylieI was about to enter Romero’s when something caught my attention.No.It was actually someone.Helmet girl was exiting the establishment. Romero’s Café ad Restaurant is one of the fanciest restaurants in L City. And seeing Vivienne coming out from here was kind of a surprise to me. I mean she drives junk. She was under an academic scholarship. Now, I saw her dining here. That confused me.“What a clever girl.”Being poor must just be her façade. She must have really come from a well-off family and didn’t want to show off just like everyone else in Brixtons. Judging from how she acted in school, I think she just didn’t want to be recognized by others.“I even buy a set of uniforms for her when I saw what Szane did. I thought she couldn’t afford to buy a new one.” I whispered to myself.Yeah. I felt sorry for that girl. I tho
Vivienne FLIRT. That’s what was written in my locker when I was about to take my shoes. I looked around and saw everybody was looking at me. I took wet wipes and clean the markings. What did I do this time? I opened my locker but screamed when something startled me. A fake snake just comes off from my locker. I heard a burst of waves of laughter coming inside the locker room. There, Szane and the rest of her group were giggling while watching over me. “Why were you seemed frightened of your kind, Vivienne?” she playfully asked while walking near me. Szane took the rubber snaked and throw it at me. I tried hard not to break down. I hate the sight of the snake. Whether it’s real or not, I am afraid of it. But I tried hard to keep my sanity. I just can’t break down in front of them. “It was just fake, Vivienne. Just like you.” She added and smiled wickedly. I still didn’t move and was forced to calm
Raylie: It seems the whole week will going to be a lot of fun since Loki handed me the deal with Vivienne. It was so nice seeing her doing everything I asked her to do. It’s not because I wanted to play her. I just like seeing her annoyed and all that. I kind of enjoying it. I texted my servant while the teacher was still not in the classroom. ‘I want an ice-cold coffee in a can.’ As soon as her phone beeps, Vivienne took it, have a glance, and then hurriedly went outside. I just couldn’t help but smile to myself. “Don’t you get bored here in the classroom?” Logan asked me while he dunked his basketball. He was busy on the backside of the classroom, playing the ball. Loki was busy with his phone while Thore was checking for whatever checklist he has on his table. “Nope,” I answered while waiting for my servant. Logan stopped from what he was doing. “It’s news to me.” “Ho
VivienneI felt a bit dizzy. The sun was freaking hot, so I decided to take a seat on one of the scattered concrete benches in the school field. I guess it was better if I chose not to attend school today. There's this Homecoming Week, and all of the students and the teachers were busy for the event. The Student Council lead by Thore was on the field to facilitate the event too.This is the reason why I haven't seen him for a while now.“Students are not allowed to hang out here, especially when there's a school activity that was taking place.”I heard a grumpy voice coming near me.“I was just resting.” I bravely answered the guy who was frowning at me. I looked around. “And I don't think I might inconvenience anyone here. The activities were taking place at the high school field.”“Yeah, right. This is the college extension, so what does the high school student doing
