Chapter 1
The bully

She continued to write down the notes she was making in her notebook when a fitfyl of laughters coming from the class door. She looked up and saw the playboy, Jeon Jungkook coming inside with his bunch of girlfriends.

His right hand was wrapped around a girl's waist, who was know as his current girlfriend, Areum. While his other hand was caressing the back of the other girl's waist, of which Areum was totally unaware of.

Jungkook winked at Mrs Min, who were currently tutoring the class. Mrs Min rolled her eyes finding his behaviour usual and continued her work, completely ignoring him at which he smirked.

Lisa sighed and lowered her head immediately as she saw him passing by her desk. Her heartbeats went frenzy when he stopped for a few seconds, just beside her desk. She didn't looked up, feeling afraid to meet his eyes.

She heaved a deep sigh when he finally walked past her and sat down on his regular last bench. Lisa adjusted her specs and was going to continue her writing when Rosé, her best friend whispered something in her ear at which she felt her heart skipping few beats.

"He was looking at you just now." Lisa looked at her with widened eyes and immediately shook her head. "No no! He might be looking at something on my desk. You're overthinking." Rosé thought for a while and then again whispered.

"But I carefully watched him looking at you. I'm sure." Rosé confidently told her at which she shushed her. "We shouldn't talk about him. We might end up bringing ourselves into troubles. Let's not talk about him." Lisa told her at which she shrugged and continued to note down on her own notebook.

While Lisa kept her hand on her heart, feeling herself getting a little uncomfortable after getting the piece of information from her friend.

"Isn't it your off today? It's Wednesday right? Than why are you going to cafe today? Wednesday is usually your day off right?" Rosé asked looking at Lisa confusedly when they both were packing their stuffs. "Overtime!" Lisa shortly answered her friend who nodded understanding.

"Lisa, just don't overwork yourself. You might get sick. You didn't took any leave last week and this week also. You should rest. Your mom will get worried for you." Rosé worriedly told her at which she warmly smiled.

"Mom is not here in Seoul. She's in Thailand with her aunt. You know she was admitted to hospital last week because she is a heart patient. So, mom is there to support her aunt. She will be back after few days." Rosé nodded understanding what she said.

"But still, you shouldn't overwork yourself. I know you're a girl with high priorities. But still, you can ask me for help. You know I love you more as a sister then a friend." Lisa smiled and suddenly hugged her.

Rosé got surprised and hugged her back. "I love you Rosé. I know you will help whenever I will ask you to. And don't worry about me. I'm totally fine." Rosé smiled and nodded before pulling away from the hug.

"Now I'll go. I'm getting late." Lisa told her and she nodded before seeing her off.

"You're 10 minutes late Lalisa! Now you will have to stay 10 minutes extra after the leave time." Her boss, Mrs Charles, who was an old scary women, barked at the petite girl who silently nodded.

"Now go and do your work! I hate latecomers!" She pointed her finger at the kitchen while shouting at Lisa who bowed before running inside. "Ah again? She's such a pain in the ass I swear!" Minnie, Lisa's co-worker, also the main cook of the cafe felt bad for the poor girl who passed a brightened smile at her, shaking her head along with her hand, telling her not to worry.

"Minnie, can you help me with this?" Lisa asked turning her back towards Minnie and showed her the apron she was trying to tie. Minnie nodded and tied her apron for her.

"Lalisa! Come out and take order for table no. 6!" Mrs Charles yelled from outside and Lisa immediately grabbed the notepad in her hand and ran outside.

She came out and immediately went to the table no. 6 but instantly regretted seeing Jungkook and his gang fooling around their. It's not first time that they are here, and it definitely won't be the first time that they are going to bully her for working in a cafe.

She sighed and mentally told herself to behave professionally even if they would try to insult her. With that thought in mind, she walked towards the table and smiled forcedly at the bunch of people laughing there.

When she came, they all went silent looking at her which made her feel more self-conscious. "Yo... your...o-order... sir?" She cursed herself mentally for stuttering in front of them.

And taking that as a cue point, they suddenly started laughing at her while banging the table with their palms as if they just saw a clown. "Fo...four... chee... cheeze bur..burger... with...with four... cokes...!!" Areum, Jungkook's girlfriend immitated her at which they all laughed more.

Lisa hurriedly noted their orders and walked away from there. She felt extremely humiliated but it was now normal for her. She was now getting used to their rash behaviour towards her. After all, she's not the only who's victim.

There are other few not-so-rich students who our studying in Seoul High after doing so much hardwork, but still getting bullied by the rich and powerful people like Jungkook and Areum.

"Uh, Minnie can you go and serve this to table no. 6 for me? I'm a little uncomfortable today." Minnie nodded her head seeing how embarassed and awkward Lisa was looking. "Do you want me to give your salary to Minnie as well? Just the way you're giving her your work?" Mrs Charles barged inside the kitchen and growled at Lisa who lowered her head feeling more embarrassed.

Murmuring a small apology, she took the order from Minnie who gave her a guilty pout. Lisa walked out and placed their order on their table and was about to leave when a deep and hoarse voice stopped her in her tracks.

"Lalisa Manoban! Here, take your tip before leaving." She heard Jungkook's voice. But ofcourse, she didn't wanted any tip from them. So she simply decided to ignore them but just as she was going to walk back to the kitchen, her arm was held in a strong grip.

As soon as her body turned around, her eyes immediately closed when something really cold and sticky splashed against her face. She opened her eyes feeling disgusted and saw Jungkook laughing looking at her who was standing their, fully soaked in the coke.
