The Nerd 👓 [Kang Ha]

7.1

Warnings: rushed, crappy kidnapping scene

Ha was walking the halls.

"You got some nerve." Ms. Han pauses him with her words. "In all my years I've never seen a scholarship kid who'd wreak havoc on everyone at Jooshin High."

Then she tried to walk away.

"That's what I came here to do." Ha's normal set smile was off his face, showing that the 'first impression Kang Ha' was gone.

"Hm?" Ms. Han turned back around.

"To make things right no matter what. And to catch who killed my brother." Ha stared dead in her eyes at this, seeing the slight shake with her pupils.

"The person who killed In-han...is part of Jooshin High's staff." Suyin whispered in his ear.

"Are you sure?" Ha whispered back, looking in her eyes.

"Definitely."

But something told Ha that this specific teacher was very suspicious.

"I'll never go back and prevent what they did on that day." Ha continued. "But I can absolutely get revenge on everyone of those bullies. I'll get justice by bringing them all down."

Ms. Han slowly looked to the side.

"Please don't tell me, that you're one of those people." Ha stepped closer. "Are you?"

Ms. Han didn't answer, just stared. And so did Ha who walked off after two seconds.

"Hey!" Yun-seok slammed his desk and made haste to Ha. "You call the cops on me. Really? For drugs and bullying? Got fucking evidence?"

"Seriously. You barely even know me. What gives you the right?" Ba-da slowly raised her voice. "I've done nothing to you!"

"What'd you hand over to the police? What was it?" Yun-seok got up in his face. "I wanna see your little videos. Come on. Show me." He lightly nudged him. "Actually, just leave," He pushed Ha by his shoulder. "And don't think about coming back here."

"I thought I told you before. I'm the one who decides wether I stay or not." Ha glared at him. "You don't have the right to force me. Choi Yun-seok."

"Why wouldn't he be able to?" Ye-ji spoke mockingly. "You kids don't pay a dime to come here. We have to pay tuition and your development fund. Have you ever thought about that? Who's footing the bill for your benefits?"

"Seems selfish to me." Ba-da also glared at Ha. "Right, He-ra?"

Said girl was just chilling in her spot, perking up at her name. And with a deep sigh, she was off to the small group.

"That's right. Scholarships are given out 'cause 'nobless oblige' and all that." He-ra faced Ha. "But that's all it is, so don't go getting it backwards."

"You've never heard of 'don't bite the hand that feeds'?" Ye-ji chimed in.

"That's a really crappy reason." Ha's childhood friend stood up, gaining curious gazes. "So it's okay to treat them badly? Because they don't pay to go to school?"

"What is this shit?!" Yun-seok got angry.

"He's right about that!"

"We shouldn't have to be marginalized and bullied just because we're not rich kids!"

Yun-seok turned a table over. "Have you all lost your damn mind?"

"If you don't want to be reported, you shouldn't've done anything wrong." Ha saved them. "Choi Yun-seok."
