CHAPTER  1

 

            I woke up with the sunlight in my eyes. The rays of the sun passed through my windowpane beautifully. I sat up from bed and admired my room for awhile. But before I could abuse the view of it which was pretty illuminated by the sun’s rays.

 

             School year starts today.  I frowned.

 

            I got up and dragged myself into the bathroom. I did my morning routines and fixed myself for school.

            Yes, today is the start of another year, for waking up early as shit. Damnit, isn’t it illegal to wake up before 8am? But while brushing my teeth, my mind wander.

 

            Senior year. Finally.

        YAY, because after graduation, I’ll be living with freedom! College at California indeed. My mind was having its own world then, thinking about being free. I was smiling like an idiot in front of the mirror. But my brows met when I realize that senior means TORMENT, too. Pshh, shitloads of boredom, cramming, and headaches are approaching.

            After my morning routines, I gather my things and checked myself in the mirror for the last time. I took a selca, and posted it on Instagram.

                              

                         @lispbaby : “Pumped up for school. #Cathleudge

 

            As I reach the kitchen, an eyesore greeted me.

            “Goodmorning, Neul Mi,” Appa said with an eye smile.

            “How’s your sleep Neul Mi? Excited for school huh?” my oppa butted in.

 

            I replied them a flat line look and a bored, “Bye.”

            Ugh, I was hungry then but I lose my appetite when I saw them. Psh. My day haven’t started yet but it is already perfectly ruined. Great.

 

            “Aren’t you gonna eat? Moko,” Appa said.

            I ignore it.

 

            “Hmm. I’ll go ahead now, bye dad. Hey, Neul Mi! Wait for me,” my brother requested.

            “Get lost,” I opened the door and slammed right at his face so he could not go with me. I ran a couple of meters away and when I feel that he can’t follow me now, I started walking.

 

Woah, that’s quite far for a record.

 

I was a bit catching my breath. While walking, I was about to approach a tree and then boom. I was scared shitless when a boy jumped from above it.

           

“Goodmorning, Neul Mi-yahhh~” Pssh. The annoying neighbor, Park Chanyeol.

            I walked passed through him.

            “Aren’t you gonna greet me back?” He said, trailing behind me. I ignore it.

            “Am I that handsome that you got tongue tied? I got bimbap here for breakfast you want?” Still, I ignore him, “Hey, am I talking to a ghost here? Hello?”

           

            I plugged my earphones to my ears and pressed play to my playlist when he harshly took off my earphones from my ear.

            “What is wrong with you, Park Chanyeol?” I grimaced.

            “Am I ugly?”

            “YES.”

            “No, I’m cute. Here, look,” the giant suddenly did an aegyo. Shit?

            “Stop that. You look like a retard. Move.”

            “Move your heart?” he smiled mischievously.

            “Move. Or I’ll rip your head off. Right here. Right now,” I berserked.

 

            His eyes widened and his jaw was on the ground. Psh, such a coward. I think he got so shocked that he didn’t budge. So, I just passed through him and said, “Find your coffin first before you annoy me again, Park Dobi.”

 

                                                                        Xxx

 

            “The goddess is here.”

            “She got prettier.”

            “I’ll bet 1,000,000 won, she’s going to nail the honor list.”

            “Yeah, right. She’s perfect dude.”

            “Oh yeah? Nice face. Stinky attitude.”

 

            “Don’t mind them Neul Mi, I know you aren’t really like that,” Chanyeol suddenly said from behind.

            “Are you following me?” I asked with an arched brow.

            “My eomma said follow my dreams though, so yeah?”

            “Psh. Can you just stop ruining my already ruined morning?”

 

            The giant just smiled at me, waved goodbye, and went ahead.

 

But really, I was just pretending that I was listening to music with my earphones on  when I entered the school gate. I always do this because I always been the talk of everyone. Every day, I listen to their endless rants about me. Sorry losers, you are all not me. 

 

            I don’t get it why they care about my life so much. I don’t even talk to anyone unless when a class activity needs talking. They always compare me to my ugly brother Cha Dae Jung. They say he’s friendly, I’m not. They say he’s talented, I’m not. Doing violin is not a talent b*tches. B*tch please, I can dance and draw. Idiots. They were even asking if we really are siblings. Oh how I wish we aren’t. They say we are the complete opposite. Hell yeah, because I’m a lot better than him.

 

 

            I’m Cha Neul Mi. Seventeen. Sunset red longhaired dudette with curly ends. 5’5 tall, has creamy complexion, almond shaped tip eyes that is quite bulgy in the middle, has slender body and curves that boys can go gaga for (they say I could pass as an K-idol ). And a smart ass, with a forlorn past that I wish I could just bury under hell. They say I’m a goddess, I don’t care? They say my personality stinks, I don’t care? Because frankly, I am not really the Cha Neul Mi I was before. I was different. But I’ve changed.. And they don’t know the whole story. So, go on. Stab me with your words, my looks and wits are sharper.
