In this world, people aren't just rich they are mega rich and Malkia, a girl from a poor background gets to see just how distorted and unfair life can be when you don't have the money nor the power to have a say. But she decides to have a say and st...

The week ended in a completely different manner than it had begun. Malkia had made friends, Marla the girl she had gotten in trouble to for trying to save. She wasn't very keen on keeping any of them, she barely bothered to talk to them but they were always bothering her especially when lunch period approached.
She wasn't stupid; she knew they were all hoping to be invited to eat at the F4 table whenever Jay and Simba invited her.
She did feel a sort of connection to Jay and Simba; they weren't as preposterous as Ryuu neither were they as detached as Luke. He'd never actually had lunch with then since they'd started dragging her along that Wednesday but he was around a few of the other times when they boys forced her to walk with them.
"Why do you guys always do this to me?" she asked them now as they pulled her along by her arm, it was break time and most people only used this period to walk around between classes rather than have breakfast.
"Do what?" Jay asked throwing a killer smile her way, she forced herself to keep on looking at him even as her cheeks grew hot; he couldn't see the flush anyway.
"Force me to join you like this."
"Ryuu likes your company," Simba said.
Ryuu was walking in front of them and Luke was next to him because Ryuu had been complaining about how his absence was affecting their image.
"I don't," he said even though he felt thrilled to have her so close to him. He remembered how she'd found him last Thursday just to tell him that she was the thing that wasn't for sell and neither was her friendship. He'd wanted to find a way to rebuke that statement but he was too awed by her; she was so strong willed and so determined he'd never met a girl like her before, a girl who didn't derive her confidence in the amount of material things she could buy and show off, it was so original he couldn't see past it. Her beauty had a certain percentage to do with it but he had spent enough time contemplating over his feelings for her to know that what he loved the most was how she'd stood up to him and how she'd decided to fight back when she'd had enough instead of cowering and leaving the school.
He was so glad she hadn't transferred to another school, he knew why he had targeted her and he knew that that was his initial plan to save himself the trouble that loving her would bring but he was so glad that she had won. He was so glad that she felt the same.
She still looked at him like she longed to be near him most of the times that she saw all four of them passing. At times she startled like she couldn't believe that he was right in front of her, her expression was usually so dreamy that she barely even noticed when his eyes when he locked with hers.
Talk about delusion.
"I don't want you here," Ryuu said once more then added "you guys could have picked a prettier girl if you wanted a girl to join our ranks." He added simply to annoy her, he loved her fiery face.
