Money

What does the world even need, that isn't money. Without it, you can't live and without it, you will never find happiness in this cruel world. I can't even bring myself to believe in the saying, "money doesn't buy you happiness" because it is false. The feeling you get when you buy a new game or when you go on a getaway trip to a tropical island, isn't that happiness?

Not to mention, because you have the money you have a higher importance in society and higher statue means more friends and respect. So I am never lonely and will never be.

I don't really know the full story in how my parents got their money, all I know is that father's company of improving media is relatively new. My mom, on the other hand, came from a long line of lawyers and was one herself, and she was a very effective one too.

I was honestly very proud of their achievements because they are the reason I can have whatever I want.

At the same time though, my father is too busy with his job to even care much about me. Mother tries her best to save some time for me but it usually has to be canceled or cut short because of a case she was in.

Them saying "hi" to me is now considered a treat.

I'm not particularly mad or sad about that, I don't need them to waste their personal time on me. I still have my friends to keep me company. What could I ask for, to make me be happier?

Summer vacation was over and I, unfortunately, had to come back from a wonderful trip to Vienna, Austria to my home country England.

I woke up and my maids set my uniform up and I slowly put it on and went down to the dining room where my favorite breakfast was sitting. I ate it by myself looking through my phone to see how much likes my recent post has gotten. Only 3k though, not as much as I would like, I guess I will delete it soon.

I walked out of my huge mansion and towards my school to start the new year of schooling. I turned the corner that leads to the main street with a small crowd of people passing by but I managed to bump into someone.

I fell down onto the floor wincing at the sudden collision. I looked up at him as he stood up tall as the surrounding people went around us. He cast a shadow on top of me so once I was able to focus my vision I saw a guy of a low statue. He was wearing commoners clothing and wore a blank face staring down at me.

How dare he bumps into me and push me to the dirty ground, did he not see me or something. "Aren't you going to say sorry." He said his blank face turning into an annoyed one.

I was surprised by what he was saying and reacted, it was clearly his fault. How rude can he be? "You're the one that bumped into me," I yelled back standing back on my feet. I know I was starting a scene but I wanted the attention to show how much of a dick this guy was.

"No, I'm pretty sure you turned in my way." He said trying to push the blame on me like I wasn't the one who fell on the ground. People were starting to crowd around us.

"Scum, do you even know who you are even talking to?" I threatened him poking my finger into his chest.

"No, and I don't care. I will be late for my first day of school if I keep talking to you." He simply said hinting to no further emotion until he slapped my hand away from him.

He then just left running away from me. I watched him go as his figure grew shorter and shorter. I looked around and saw that the people were now looking at me in a way I did not appreciate. I sneered at them and pushed my way out of the circle.

Sometimes I just hate people like him, how can you be so full of yourself without having the power to back it up. This must be the reason why my father tells me to stay away from their kind, luckily I won't have to see his face ever again.

I brushed myself off and walked towards my school.

After a few minutes, I was at the front of my school, Timption High School. But this isn't some normal high school, of course not, why would I go to a regular high school. This is a very special high school for only those who are worthy.

I walked through the grand gateway showing my student ID to the security guard and walked into the school.

Upon entering I was greeted by many people, from girls and boys all who I don't even know the names of. I was happy, happy that I was so popular that everyone knew me and I didn't even know them back.

I walked to my class with a loud crowd following me. When I entered the room it was no better, everyone stopped their conversations and ran up to me to say their greetings. Some of which I remember from my sophomore year. I ignored everyone and sat down in the seat in the back and center of the room and quietly waited for the class to start.

That boy already made my mood bad so right now I just need peace and quiet and remind myself to not get my panties in a twist, since I wasn't going to see him.

The teacher came in and asked for everyone's attention. "Hey students, I have some news to tell you." He stated, "We are having a new student."

The whole class groaned, not really happy about the news. No one really liked new people being added, it made the school seem less special in a way. The teacher opened the door and asked the supposed new student to enter. I was never all too interested in new people unless they had caught my eye or had a high statue-like me.

The new student slowly walked in.

My eyes were about to pop out of my head. The person who walked into the class was that douchebag that bumped into me earlier.

The teacher said, "This is Michael he is a special transfer student. He came into this school by passing the entrance exam."

The whole class was aghast.

Well, it made a lot of sense, this school was special to get into. It was either you were rich enough to pay off the ridiculous amount of entry fees or take the entrance exam. And that exam isn't easy, not one bit. In fact, only a real genius can even get 50% right and the passing score that will enable you to gain entry to the school was a 90 or up.

Which is close to impossible in short.

The reason for this school to be like that is their main goal for the school it was for them to be the best, the best you can get financially and educationally. And to do that the entry fee is also super high. And those costs don't add the prices for the uniform and school supplies. But if you don't have that type of money then give your shot at the entrance exam.

This is the test that helps the school be educationally the best and not have the school filled with just stupid rich people.

But in this case, they made the exam too hard. No one in the last 20 years that this school's history, has anyone passed the exam. So, of course, we would be surprised to find someone had actually got a 90% or even higher.

The new student looked around the class until he stopped at me. His face turned visually disappointed but, surprised at the same time.

"It's you," He said sneered at me.

Everyone stared at me like I was crazy for knowing this poor person.

"Oh great, Hyugo you know Michael. That's perfect you can sit next to him in that open seat." My teacher happily said as it got him out of the awkward atmosphere the room was in.
