Jessica POV

Krystal and I had followed Luhan out of the lunch room. What is the favor he needs?

He led us into the library where we found the girl the whole school was gossiping about.

"Krystal, Jessica, I need you to be friends with this girl."

I glanced at Krystal and I she gave that look of  no, totally no.

Haeun POV

"Guys, do you really not recognize me?"

They both shook their heads.

Yes!! That means the look is working!!

"It's me! Haeun!"

They gasped and looked so surprised.

Luhan explained my current situation and why I was dressing up like this.

"Oh, okay. Haeun, come with us." Krystal said.

They took me arm in arm, with me in the middle.

We walked to the cafeteria with Luhan walking behind us.

Luhan whispered goodbye, saying he needed to go back to his table.

The girls led me to a table filled with okay looking girls. They were all really snobby.

"Girls, let me introduce our new friend." Jessica started.

"Her name is Eun Hee. She's new."

They were all staring at me in disgust. 

"Umm... Okay, Eun Hee, sit down next to me." Jessica whispered as she gently tugged at my uniform. 

Lunch continued on as usual. All the popular girls were chatting and gossiping among themselves. Jessica and Krystal on the other hand were really quiet, having no expression on their faces. No wonder everyone in our company calls them the Ice Princesses ;) 

Looking at the table, I started to wish that I could be like them. They had friends, they were normal, and most, they didn't have an astonishing and over the top family background.

No one was talking to me. I was being ignored... At this point, I wasn't really sure about my plan of keeping my disguise. But, I knew I had to stay to my word of at least trying the experiment because as people say, never back down. 

"Hey, Jessica, where do you buy the lunch here?" I asked. 

"Oh, here I'll show you." She replied. 

We slipped out of our seats and she started walking towards what seemed like a very long line of students. It looked like the line would take around an hour to wait for... But my stomach was so hungry... 

"Jessica, will we really have to wait for all these students?" I quietly and cautiously asked her as we were walking towards the people. 

"Silly goose, have you forgotten? I'm from Korea's fourth richest family AND I'm Jessica Jung." She said while giggling. 

Oh yeah, I can't believe I almost forgot. At this school, they run it by "social class." It all depends on who you are and how much money your family makes. If you have a lot of money, the staff and students will treat you like a princess. But if you're a scholarship student, you are treated like trash and garbage, basically equalizing you to nothing. 

In Korea, our rankings are pretty simple: 

1st: Lee Family, or also known as my family. We own S.M Entertainment and all the Lotte Malls.
