The Narcissist

Chapter 7 - JOIN THE CLUB

This campus is quite extravagant, indulging students with different establishments, encouraging diversity. We have two theatres, sports complex, hardware house, swimming pool, shopping district, music hall, art supply centre, and we even have spa! A spa inside a campus! Can you believe it?

My mom worked hard just so I could enter this prestigious university. My modeling career also helped a bit. We're not as well-off as the other kids here, so I make up with my appearance.

When I was younger, I learned that even if you're not as rich as them you can join their clique as long as you're attractive.

I smiled to myself, making it here was not that easy but I made it. I was distracted by the shutter sounds nearby, and as I looked around, guys (and some girls) were taking pictures of me.

Click!

Click!

Click!

I'm feeling like a celebrity, so I put my sunglasses on.

That's when I remembered the reason why I'm roaming around the campus, I'm finding the dojo where Rhett might have been practicing. I headed towards the sports complex, and people are still following me.

I finally found the dojo and sneak a peek at the window. He was there alright, along with his other teammates.

At that moment, he was at the verge of finishing his opponent. His foot was about to hit the other guy's  face when he stopped midway.

I pull away my sunglasses to get a better a view of what's happening. That's when I realized he stopped because he saw me through the window. I gasp as our eyes met, then I hid away from his sight.

I heard the sliding glass door opened. "Are you looking for somebody miss?" A muscular guy appeared.

I smiled embarrasingly, "Eh, me?" I laughed nervously. "Um.."

When I couldn't find any plausible excuse, I stated the next most valid reason. "I was wondering if you guys are accepting new members?"

Before muscle guy here could answer, Rhett appeared behind him. "Is there any problem here captain?" He asked macho man, not even bothering to look at me.

tsk.

I flashed him my prettiest smile. "Actually, I was just asking captain here if you're accepting new members."

He raised an eyebrow. "You? Joining the martial arts club?" He scoffed.

Their captain moved in front of me, "A pretty lady like you should be joining a club like theatre club, or modeling club. Something that suits you. You see, most of our members here are guys." He explained.

"Are you or are you not accepting girls in your club?" I asked directy.

Captain answered, "We are. If you're really interested I'm gonna have to interview you first. Follow me to my office. You too Rhett." He ordered as he went inside the dojo.

Rhett and I stared for a moment, I can't even read his face. He waited for me to get inside first, which I obliged.

As we got inside, all of the guys stopped what they're doing and as usual stared at me.

Rhett blocked their view by walking beside me. What a gentleman. I smiled to myself.

"What are you smiling about? You think you're gonna get in easily because you're pretty?" Rhett whispered.

My smile widened. "You think I'm pretty?" I whispered back staring at him.

I could tell that he was caught off guard by my question because he shyly cleared his throat, looking away from me.

This is gonna be exciting. *evil laugh*
