It was then that she remembered the teen's infatuation with the angel talking to her right now.
Just to add a little more salt to the wound, she cracked a joke to make Mira laugh. She glanced at Zack from the corner of her eyes, watching in cruel delight as he deflates with each passing second.
That's right, the sister of the guy he fought with on day one is getting along with the girl he likes. What's Zack gonna do about that? Punch her?
Hah.
"(Y/N)! Mira!"
Another person joined the conversation. It was only with Zoe's presence that the former realized that the room is already more crowded than earlier.
"Good morning, Zoe," Mira greeted.
"Good morning. Hey, is your brother not here yet?" Zoe turned to the other girl and batted her eyes, for some reason.
"That lazy bum is probably still on his way."
"Aw," the dark haired girl sighed. "Well, it's okay. At least he got plenty of rest!"
(Y/N) looked at her weirdly, just unable to understand what this girl saw in her hopeless brother for her to be constantly asking about him. If it was his face, well, she'd really hate to tell the truth. Reality sucks, she knows.
"Why do you keep hanging off his arm?"
"Yeah, Zoe. Why?" Mira leaned forward, also interested.
Oh, has this corner turned into a gossip zone all of a sudden?
"Well, you know...he's really cute...and nice...also brave and strong~"
(Y/N) closes her eyes, unable to process the words she just heard. Cute, that's just because he's in a perfected body or something. Nice? She supposes, but stupid, yes. Brave and strong? Again, it was because of the dumb taller body.
Besides, if Zoe's going to chase someone, she might as well make sure to pick someone filial!
"There are better options out there," (Y/N) grumbled because she's honestly feeling sorry.
"Why, do you not approve of having me as sister-in-law?"
"Sister-in-what?!"
"You're progressing too fast!" Mira laughed. "You'll break (Y/N) at this point."
Thankfully, (Y/N) was saved from potential brain damage by the sound of three people flaunting about their wealth...
Great. Here we have a trio of capitalists.
But then the door slid open. And in came the so-called "dark horse" of the fashion dept.
"He's here!" Zoe whisper-yelled to the two other girls.
"I can see that," (Y/N) muttered, but the others somehow already got used to her side-comments. They chose to ignore her.
They watched as Daniel came to greet a still-brooding Zack, who was turning his head away from the guy he dislikes. The volume of the chatter in the room dramatically decreased.
At least, until someone rather loudly said, "Daniel Park...he's unfashionable."
"He must be poor."
The entire class froze. And Daniel, for plot convenience, did not hear a word of what was just spoken about him.
Meanwhile, (Y/N) is barely repressing her seething as she feels Zack now glancing at her smugly. Because if Daniel is poor, then that means she is also poor by association.
THIS IS WHY SHE HATES BEING CONNECTED WITH DANIEL PARK!!
She already knows she's broke, okay?!
This time, the new hot topic in fashion department is whether or not Daniel Park is poor.
Some kept glancing at his sister, wanting to ask. But as soon as they saw her sour face, they immediately lose all nerves to ask.
Mira and Zoe all looked at her curiously. Surprisingly, neither of them chose to ask.
-
"Fuck...this stench..."
(Y/N) wrinkles her nose and shoots a dirty look at nowhere in particular. She can smell someone smoking, but can't tell where it was coming from. How come she hasn't encountered one until lately?
When the girl turns a corner, the sight that greeted her was of Daniel struggling to lift a handful of bags with him.
"What is this?" she asked drily.
"(Y/N)! Jay gave these to me. He said he doesn't need them anymore."
"Jay?" she furrowed her eyebrows. That quiet guy sitting by the window? Who never talks much?
The bag is full of clothes, weirdly enough. Did he hear about the gossip in the classroom and decided it would be the best birthday gift for Daniel?
Okay, good for him. But where's for (Y/N)?!
This is really becoming so unfair! How come Daniel gets all these things while she gets none???
If she threw everything carelessly inside the house when she was forced to help...well, that's no one's business but hers.
-
Infuriatingly enough, Daniel went to school the next day decked in probably the fanciest uniform-modification that (Y/N) has ever seen.
She wants to kick him again just for this...
And those girls started swooning over him again just because of what he was wearing! Rich? Frugal? Please, that guy was so lucky an actual rich guy overheard it was his birthday and filled his entire wardrobe.
Almost an hour after school, (Y/N) trudged to her job that day with a disgruntled look on her face. Call her petty, but she was jealous, okay.
"What happened this time?" Yoojun asked her curiously when she appeared in his view.
"Some lucky bastard got an entire wardrobe collection from his sugar daddy," she muttered.
"What?"
"My brother got a really fancy gift for his birthday."
"Oh," the guy stared in surprise. "That was...a rather unexpected translation."
(Y/N) only sighed at him and did her job as she was supposed to. Business was actually pretty smooth that day. But she cannot help the sour looks she casted on the costumers everytime they turned their backs on her.
Lucky, every single one of them...
When she was about to go home a few minutes before midnight, (Y/N) caught sight of a paper bag with her name written on the paper stapled to it.
Naturally, she approached. Who cares if it was a bomb? It was for her anyway.
There was...a couple of clothes inside.
Looking up, she clearly spotted Yoojun's grin. He turned away as soon as his business was done, but she sure as hell understood what he mouthed.
It's for you.
Okay, maybe she's feeling a little less bitter now.

Unedited.
OKAY SO there's currently not much progress with the actual male cast since she's not very close with them yet!😭 Maybe eventually, it will happen. But our oc here just has a little crush, nothing serious.
(By the way, ehem, idk maybe you want to suggest who to cough pair her with hmmmm—)
ALSO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE COMMENTS AND THE HUNDRED VOTES!! I appreciate you all <3333
