Greedy. How can a person be greedy? Is wishing for money and wealth considered as to be greedy? Or being selfish at some points for own benefits is greedy?
For me, the people who laugh at others problem, obviously having a good time for themselves because they could get some time out of their busy schedule to laugh their heart out, but also, in the process of bringing shame and embarrassment to the one who is suffering are greedy. Just for a sake of good time, you chose to ruin someone's day, memories and you think you are not greedy?
I watched as the same blonde girl who tried to bully me in my day, troubling Ace, who had helped me from the beginning with all the notes and doubts and asked nothing in return. She pour some juice on him, broke his glasses. The boy was not that tall comparing the blonde girl but I had hoped that he would at least stand up for himself at some point or maybe he could've cried to make them feel bad. But then the blonde stood there laughing like a maniac as she spit chewing gum on his head and feigned innocence.
At that point, I had really hoped Ace to stand his guard, but all he did was examine his hair, and then he picked up his broken glasses and books and walked up straight from their. He came straight towards my direction and for a minute looked my way. There was nothing in his, not a single drop of tear nor any rage. He just walked past me to somewhere and I looked back at the redhead giving a high five to the blonde girl.
So, these people really enjoy bullying others.
Interesting.
I wonder if they have ever felt what being hurt actually feels.
But I was impressed. Impressed by that nerd boy, Ace. I have never really seen any other guy with so much patience and quiet. My dad was always so calm and had so much patience, but I doubt he could withstand these much bullies like Ace did. Because my dad would literally blow their heads off with a ...
I looked back at the way where Ace just went. These guys are literally taking advantage of his patience and he is just letting them do that.
I heaved a sigh as I held the straps of my bag and threw it over my shoulder as I turned to leave.
"Did you saw how his expression changed when he felt that chewing gum on his hair?" the blonde said laughing hysterically and I looked to find her wheezing and choking on her own breath as she held the sides of her waist and laughed. "Totally worth the watch!" the redhead said: "Good job, Chelsea," they stood there in a group enjoying their time as I watched them from far away. How victorious they felt for coming in a group and picking on a single boy.
"Good job...Chelsea," a smirk formed on my lips as I watched the blonde girl, before turning around and leaving.
The last bell for the day rung and everyone packed their bags and left. I looked to my right to find the seat where Ace usually seats vacant. The korean guy with whom he usually seats was also absent. Probably, he was with him. I looked at the notebook on my desk. It was Ace's notebook and I had failed to complete it in time and I am yet to return it back to him. But he never asked for it. It's been two weeks and yet he had never asked me to return it back. My fingers trailed over his handwriting, it was so beautiful and clear. Each letters were clear and were in cursive and I looked at my handwriting which was in a scribbled form.
"Time to pay back," I mumbled as I shoved all my books and notebook in my bag and walked out of the class to my locker to put some of the books in it. As I was walking crossing the hallway, I heard someone talking and I stopped in my tracks when I saw who it was.
Jung and the other one was Ace. For a second, my eyes widened as I looked at him. He had shaved his hair off his head. Was that because of that gum? He has a burr cut on him and he had new sets of eyeglasses as he stood their in a red oversized shirt and shoved all his books from his locker to his bag.
