The men hating girl

A new friend and insecurities

"saranghae..." Those soft words that made Emrald's body shiver and melt for a minute stayed in her mind, she couldn't sleep at all, she was starting to hate herself and everything around her. The next morning she woke up way before Hyungwon did, brushed her teeth three times to "purify" the kiss, she even bathed with cold water, like freezing cold water. Her mum was out so she had to prepare breakfast for herself and Hyungwon.

"Woah!" Exclaimed Hyungwon on seeing the feast Emrald had prepared; poached eggs on toast and guacamole and a strawberry parfait, an Italian style breakfast. He ate everything with delight and his eyes were locked on Emrald, he finally said "So?..." And Emrald broke eye contact and said all annoyed while her cheeks flushed red "SO WHAT?", "You don't have to give me an answer straight away, I can wait but don't make me wait too long or I might assault you again, I'm a guy you know and well you make me go crazy." Said Hyungwon. "Stop, stop it! I never, I no I you confuse me, I hate you!" Said Emrald, then she took her rucksack and rushed to school without Hyungwon.

"Argh who does he think he is huh? And what do all girls see in that annoying jerk? That stupid jerk spreading pheromones all over every place he goes to..." Mumbled Emrald, when suddenly "I'm sorry for being a jerk who spreads around pheromones but hey I didn't choose to look like this y'know? That's a bit harsh Ems." Hyungwon appeared behind her. "Whoahhh how did you? When did you? Omg are you an alien from planet pheromones? Did you teleport yourself here? How in the world did you catch up, you just started your breakfast when I rushed out." Exclaimed Emrald. "Well about that, I can eat very fast and I'm pretty athletic so I ran and caught up, that was easy I merely broke any sweat at all xD." Said Hyungwon with a smirk. "Tch, there you go bragging again about how perfect you are..." Mumbled Emrald. "Huh? Did you say something? Omg you just said that I was perfect! Haha say it again xD." Said Hyungwon, "ugh get away from me !" With that Emrald started walking faster but Hyungwon caught up again, it looked like they were literally walk racing.

Emrald just realised that she hasn't made any female friends in this new school when she arrived in class, her only friend was Hyungwon and she blamed him for it since she wanted to make new female friends. "I'm gonna suck the life out of him argh I swear dear God Almighty please allow me to have female friends!" Prayed Emrald.

Lunch break...
Hyungwon went to play football with his team so Emrald was all alone on a bench, she then sighed and went to the rooftop to eat. There she found a girl, standing there alone with long and staright blonde hair flowing in the breeze, Emrald couldn't take her eyes off her. 'CRACK' Emrald accidentally stepped on a dry branch and the girl turned around to face her, revealing her bright Turquoise eyes, but her eye shape though said that she was half Asian and half White. "Hello there!" She said with a smile in English, it was a British accent.
"Hello!" Emrald said back, Emrald had a perfect British accent as well as she was born in England which is why her name is Emrald and not a Japanese name but her mum was from South Korea which is why she also understands Korean and her Dad is Japanese, She lived in England till the age of 9 and her parents returned to Japan along with her.

"I am Eleanor Campbell, I came from England I  am a transfer student, I'm sorry I can't speak much of Japanese right now but hey I'm learning. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu (pleased to meet you - formal)" said the blonde girl. "It's okay I understand English, Yoroshiku! I am Emrald Kaizen." Said Emrald. "Emrald? That's not a Japanese name, oh my bad if what I said was offensive I was just curious, hmm a little... I... It's so hard to make friends here since I can't speak much of Japanese but the boys are pushing their way around to be my friend and the girls just glare at me as if they hate me..." Said Eleanor shyly. That made Emrald chuckle and she said "I see, that's understandable since you're so pretty, well yeah I was born in England too and lived in London till I was 9, my dad is Japanese and my mum is Korean, you yourself look half Asian though oh and I can be your friend if you want!" Said Emrald with a warm smile. "Oh I'd love that Emrald! Thank you, well you see my mum is Japanese and my dad is English, oh and I lived in Brighton, I always wanted to moved to either London or Tokyo and here I am in Tokyo! It's so exciting the city of anime and mangas, I can't wait to visit Akihabara, Osaka and Kyoto, Harajuku and Shibuya perfecture as well oh and Beika perfecture!" Said Eleanor all excited. "Err..m that's great and all I love anime and mangas as well but sorry to interrupt your dreams but Beika cho (Beika perfecture) is only in detective conan 😅" said Emrald. "Oh really? Aww man but I heard of Beika university or something!" Said Eleanor, her eyes glistening, "well that's a women's university 😁" answered Emrald. Like this they bonded and ate lunch together, exchanged phone numbers and email addresses then went back to their respective classes; Eleanor was in the class next door.

"Yo! Did you miss me?" Hyungwon teased Emrald as soon as he entered the class. That annoyed her and she said "Nooo, and why would I? Ugh everything was so peaceful until you came you doofus! For your information I was not alone I was with a friend!"
"Really? I thought you don't have any friends here apart from me? Like the girls here don't wanna talk to you cause of me, wait do you have another guy friend? Are you already cheating on me?" Teased Hyungwon. "Ya pabo! I was with a female friend, she is an exchange student from England and half Japanese, so we kind of became friends." Said Emrald while blushing. "You're that happy to have made a female friend eh? Whoa how cute to even blush for that, well good, I'm happy for you!" Said Hyungwon with a warm and cute smile.

The last bell rang announcing that the school hours are finally over for the day. "Ah Hyungwon-ah you can go home right away if you want to, Eleanor's gonna come with me to the library." Said Emrald to Hyungwon, he didn't look very pleased with this and frowned a little then walked away.
"Emrald! I'm here let's go!" Cried Eleanor from a distance while smiling, waving and running towards Emrald, she tripped on the floor and was about to fall until Hyungwon caught her. She's a naturally clumsy person. Seeing this scenario Emrald's eyes widened she was slightly shocked but also felt a stinging pain in her chest... 'What is this feeling?' she thought 'and why?...'

At that moment Emrald couldn't understand what she was feeling, the three of them then ended up going to karaoke instead of the library and had a good time there but Emrald still somehow felt uneasy.

After karaoke both Emrald and Hyungwon accompanied Eleanor to a nearby bookstore. Eleanor and Emrald both got themselves some new releases of the manga they like and Eleanor's driver came to fetch her there. The walk back to the Kaizen household was quiet. Even after dinner Emrald kept seeing the scene when Hyungwon caught Eleanor, she then had an image of Eleanor in her head and thought that boys would obviously like her since she was so pretty and had blonde hair.

"What's happening to me?" Emrald asked herself.
