Natasha looks away from Jordan she grabs the pen and starts scribbling on her paper waiting for class to start she felt a pair of eyes on her and she gulped hoping those eyes would look away. "Exactly..that's how it feels..it's very uncomfortable when you stare at me..so please don't stare at me again you make me very uncomfortable sophomore." Jordan said rolling his eyes.
Natasha ignored him. "Well it wasn't intentional...don't get your feelings hurt your not all that." She said folding her arms. "Move that's my seat." He said coldly. "Well..I don't want to..besides this seat doesn't say your name on it..and this is our first time even being in this classroom so how can this seat be yours?"
"Well I always sit on this side of the room so get up." She didn't budge at all. "No thanks you don't tell me what to do because I will not listen." He sighed and sat next to her. "Honestly so annoying." She laughs. "You could've said you wanted to sit next to me along don't be so shy." She teased. "Ugh whatever." He replied.
After classes Natasha was walking in the hallway heading outside but before she could her bully Kaila pushed her to the wall. "Hi there..you've got my money right?" Kaila said spitting on the floor. "I-I'm sorry I forgot..I..wasn't able to get it.." she said flinching a bit. "You know what happens when you don't listen to me?" She said pulling Natasha hair. "P-please I'm sorry—"
"Aww sorry My—-" before kaila could finish speaking Jordan throw a book at her head. "Leave her alone how much do you need, 20 yen? 40 yen?" Jordan threw the money to her and grabbed Natasha hand walking away. "W-what why did you help me?" Natasha said. "Ah your really getting on my nerves don't you know how to stand up for yourself?" He pulled his hands away. "Next time learn to stick up for yourself." He said walking away.
She looked at him confused. "Thanks...." she said in a low tone. She walked home and as soon as she got home there was yelling in the house. She sighed. "What's going on mom?" Her mother started crying. "There is barely any money left in my card I don't know what's going on..how is the money going missing..your brother says he didn't do it so did you? I swear to god you both are just like your father."
Natasha sighed she wanted to cry so bad. She hated being compared to her father and she hated that her mom would come home everyday and find a new thing to blame on her it was always her she always favored her brother because he was the youngest and she hated it.
She did love her mom and wanted whats best for her but sometimes her mother just got on her nerves she ran up to her room and started crying. "I wish I was born as someone else!" She said out loud.
Jordan walked home and saw that his mother was crying. "What's wrong mom.." she sighed. "why didn't you tell me? So this is what you have been doing?" She had found the extra pair of uniforms he had from last year. "Mom...i..can explain..I wasn't ready to tell you so..."
"You can't...you just can't be..this isn't happening right now..." his sister looks down. "Mom he is still the same person! He still is mom don't blame him okay?" Jordan sister tried to explain. "Why were you in my room mom? Why even? I was going to tell you eventually I just didn't know how." His mother couldn't even she walked out the room.
His sister sighed. "I'm so sorry..I didn't know she would find them..and I didn't think she would find out.." he sighed "it's not your fault...but sometimes I just wish I was someone..else.."
And because of their wish..they would have never thought that something.. so bazar could ever happen that day...
