( y/n ) shot ha-neul an 'are-you-for-real-right-now?' look, knowing that ha-neul was keeping up the nice and polite girl act.

the past 4 months she's spent with ha-neul, she knows ha-neul would've laughed and straight up said "no, you're ugly lol" if the brown haired girl wasn't acting.

( y/n ) sighed, and shrugged heading towards her desk in peace.

she wasn't one to associate herself in those types of situations. they were tiring and wasted time.

her ( e/c ) scanned the room, taking note of those students who did not attend or were busy doing their own things. she caught sight of the 'popular girl' in their class, shooting daggers through a glare at ha-neul.

she recalled the red haired girl's name as jia. often referred to as the popular girl due to always going around and flipping her hair, shooting dirty looks at everyone who passed her.

this act was often stereotyped as the 'mean girl' but popular girl as a nickname to mock the bitch was what the student body preferred.

she was also known for using her circle of friends to corner her victims and lure them into an empty classroom to beat them into pulps.

it was also no secret that the red head had an obvious crush on the male that happened to confess to ha-neul. so, bitter feelings quickly bloomed into the girl's heart as she bit on her nails.

'she might cause some type of problem later on. but i doubt that. she's a complete coward despite her smug attitude. it's her group of friends i need to watch out for.'  ( y/n ) thought to herself, shifting her thoughts to another.

time had quickly passed as different teachers entered and left the class after hours of lectures—which ( y/n ) did not at all understand—

the ( h/c ) haired girl was in a dilemma, gripping her hair with her hands as she banged her head on a wall. "everyone seemed to understand the lesson but why didn't i!?" she cried out

ha-neul sweat-dropped and pat the girl in the back, telling her comforting words in the process. however, the comforting words slowly turned into bullying.

"man, you really are dumb—" she snickered, making ( y/n ) glare at her. she quickly shut her mouth and averted her gaze, holding her laughs.

"i'm not dumb, i just don't understand the lesson" she explained, making ha-neul roll her eyes. "exactly. but don't worry, i'll tutor you later after school"

( y/n ) could only nod with a defeated expression.

"anyways, let's go get our lunch before  they run out of food" ha-neul spoke, already walking towards the cafeteria with her hands buried in her pockets to get atleast a little bit of warmth.

( y/n ) followed after, walking beside the girl as they passed several students in the hallway. whispers were quickly spread as the obvious topic was ha-neul, given that the school's most liked boy had confessed to her and she rejected it.

"did you hear? apparently jia is targeting—"

before the ( h/c ) haired girl could hear the gossip any further, ha-neul pulled her by the wrist.

"c'mon ( y/n )! let's hurry up!"

( y/n ) groaned, annoyed that she wasn't able to fully hear the gossip. but she prayed that it wouldn't be ha-neul.

——————————

the skies were painted a soft purple and blue, the clouds slowly clearing as the sun slowly came down.

several students dispersed in the streets as our main character, ( y/n ) lightly tapped her feet against the concrete side walk.

"what's taking ha-neul so long?" she irritably spoke to herself, her feet tapping on the ground getting more and more agressive as she kept her arms crossed on her chest.

"dude, did you hear? jia's going crazy beating the shit out of the chick who her crush confessed to."

( y/n )'s eyes widened in disbelief as she turned to the unfamiliar student who talked to his friends. she stomped her way towards the group and grabbed the student by the collar.

"where did you hear that?" she calmly questioned, though not hiding her anger through her voice.

"i-i didn't hear it from anyone! i saw it happening on the top floor classroom when i passed by!" the student stuttered, staggering in his steps once the female let go of his unifrom collar.

she ran as fast as she could, praying to gods she wasn't even sure existed and continued to push herself to run even when she was already out of breath.

she debated the possible situation that may unfold, manifesting that lady luck would be in her side.
