Chapter 26

When I walked to school the next morning, I wasn't surprised the see the students crowding around Nara and Jimin at the locker area.

"Have you heard that?" A girl spoke to another one as they walked past me.

"That Jimin and Nara are now a couple? Hell, yeah! They're like the new hottest couple in school!" Her friend replied to her.

"Wow," I unenthusiastically said to myself as I walked to my locker. The thing is, I have to walk pass them in order to reach my locker and I'm really trying my hardest to avoid them right now but this is just not helping me at doing so.

I cursed under my breath and quickly made my way to my locker but as soon as I took a step towards it I was doomed to death. I knew it when Nara called for me in front of everyone, inviting gasps from all the piranhas hungry for information and gossips.

I slowly turned to her and walked to them, putting on a fake smile in front of everyone. Some people were whispering things about me being Jimin's ex girlfriend and how his taste changes 360° when he decided to date Nara instead.

"What is it, Nara?" I looked at only her without casting a glance at the guy who cheated on me.

She had a smirk that I wish I could take down. "How are you feeling today?"

"Oh, I feel grand. Don't worry about me," I said sarcastically. I could feel all these eyes lingering on me as they watched this scene unfolding.

"Good then. As you have heard, Jimin and I are now officially dating," She linked her arm with Jimin and somehow I could sense he felt uncomfortable.

"That's great news! When's the reception?"

"What?" She raised her eyebrow, not getting my sarcasm.

"Oh, wait, sorry. You said dating, I heard married. Lol, sorry. I thought you said you were married so I asked for your wedding reception date, my bad," I mocked her and brushed my hair off of my shoulders. I felt victorious when I could see the dismay written on her face.

"Anyway, we're going to celebrate it so we're hosting a party at my place. We thought it would be nice if..." She stared at me from top to bottom and grinned before she continued, "his ex-girlfriend, could join and celebrate us, too."

I knew the moment she said that she was only going to embarass me and I could feel the blood boiling inside me but I tried my hardest to brush it off. Especially since we're in front of everyone. Seriously though, they're holding up a party just to celebrate being a couple?

"Of course, it would be nice! The ex should obviously need to celebrate the new couple, especially since my ex downgraded, I mean, upgraded. Oopsie," I heard people laughing and gasping in shock when they realised that I said Jimin downgraded to Nara. I actually think that some of them were preaching me when they moved to my side.

Nara looked at me through gritted teeth but she was also trying her hardest to maintain a reputation. "Very well, then. We'll see you on Friday night at my place."

"Sure, I'm pretty pumped to celebrate. See you there," I gave her a sarcastic smile and waved to her as I walked away to my locker.

Great, now I have to attend a party at my nemesis' house to celebrate my nemesis and ex dating. Perfect, just perfect.

Right after class ended, I went back home and straight away dumped myself onto my bed.

"Ughhhhhhh," I groaned against my sheet that I clamped so hard, even my nails were almost digging the palm of my hand.
