The Troublemaker

Chapter 1

Jennie's PoV

The door of my council office swung open.

"What are you doing here for the third time?" I asked the person in front of me

"Third time? This is just my first time," She replied

"Third time of the week, given that it's just Wednesday," I told her as I busied myself with my homework

"I came late," She ignored me

This is Lisa Manoban. The girl I always see because the dean always sends her to me. My patience for Lisa is not unlimited but they still send her to me.

"You've used that cover up too many times, Manoban. I know when it's a lie," I told her as I looked at her

She's sitting in front of me while her arm rests on my table. Sometimes, I really think she just gets herself into trouble because she wants to skip her class.

"Our teacher couldn't take a joke. I just put a whoopee cushion on his seat and everyone laughed then he sent me here!" Lisa complained like it was she who was the victim

I mentally facepalmed myself. She gets herself into trouble in the most childish ways.

"You're not even supposed to do that in the first place. You're 19 years old, Manoban!" I replied

"Tss. Just give me my penalty," She told me while she pops her bubblegum

I wrote something in a piece of paper. She should come here at 6:30 tomorrow to help the janitors with the cleaning. She grabbed it from my hand and she looked at it.

"Thanks," She said and she left my room

I just let out a sigh. That girl is the definition of hard-headed. When my free cut ended, I went to my class and I saw Irene and Chaeyoung. They're also in the school's cheerleading team.

"What's up, Jennie?" Chaeyoung said

Chaeyoung, Irene and I are the most known cheerleaders of the school. I have no idea why but somehow, it's like that. In Seoul University, we have different groups: jocks, popular kids, nerds, and average kids.

In my case, I am one of the popular kids. There are people who want to be my friends just so they can also gain popularity. Yet I do not let the popularity get into my head and I still excel when it comes to studies.

"Fine. Only had one student," I told them

"Let me guess," Irene said

"Yeah, it's Manoban," I told her before she can even guess

"Why did you answer? I was gonna get it right!" Irene pouted

"I swear! That girl can't survive a day without any problem," Chaeyoung said

"You know what. I know someone who's actually close to her but she never tells me stuff about Lisa," Irene said

"Who?" I asked

"You know Seulgi?" Chaeyoung and I threw her a knowing grin

"Seulgi? The one you want to hit on?" Chaeyoung teased

"Shut up, Chaeng! She's nice alright?" Irene pouted

"How can she tell you stuff about Lisa when you don't talk to her in the first place?" I asked her

"Ah! That's where you're wrong! I talk to her just so you know," Irene said

Chaeyoung and I looked at each other as we listened to Irene tell her story.

"She lives just a few blocks away from me," Irene explained and we nodded

The class started and I turned my attention to the teacher. It's my last year in this university before I go to med school. I'm planning to become a surgeon. Big dream, right? That's why I'm working this hard.
