Shocked

NIYLA’s POV.

"Don't you know people will mock you?" he added again, but this time his side dimple was showing, revealing his handsome face.

"Umm," I stammered, trying to find the right words to say. It feels like everyone in this world is against me. The girl who pushed me here was a total stranger. I have no idea why she suddenly developed such hatred towards me.

"Just go home and change," he said, and I nodded in understanding. At that moment, another guy walked onto the scene. I can't lie, his face was incredibly handsome. I'm not the type to go crazy over a guy, but the one in front of me was hard to resist. I could tell he would be popular because as soon as he arrived, the girls around me started fixing their hair, trying to show off their pretty faces. Even Hilda who dragged me here was captivated by him. Surprisingly, the boy's eyes were only on the guy who had helped me tie a cloth around my waist.

"What are you doing here?" he asked, focusing his attention on the guy. I couldn't help but admire his voice, he seemed perfect in everything.

"Hi, Henry," Hilda said to the guy, extending a handshake. But he just glared at her hatefully, refusing to accept her handshake.

"The last time I checked, we're not that close," he said, slapping her hand away. Then his gaze shifted to me and quickly looked away. "Let go," he said, dragging the boy who had helped me away.

"My name is Liam, make sure you find me and return the cloth!" he screamed as Henry dragged him away.

"Liam, Henry," I said with a frown, my brows furrowing.

"Don't think he's trying to get close to you, he only rendered your help," one of the girls standing nearby said. Without saying a word, I glared at Hilda before walking out of the hall. I thought she would try to stop me, but she never touched me until I walked out, which showed that she only brought me to the hall to humiliate me.

I walked out of the hall without looking back. It's only my first day and already I have a nickname. Maybe someone took a video and uploaded it because as I walked, whispers from people passing by turned into "red cloth." Their words hit me hard, but I had no choice but to play deaf.

I walked faster and reached my hostel. I checked my wristwatch and it was already past 10 am. I had a lecture at noon and I didn't want to miss it.

I stormed into my hostel and walked to my bed. I opened my luggage, messing up my clothes on the bed, and took out my pad and new pants. Then I headed towards the bathroom.

I took off the hoodie that the guy had tied around my waist. It was black and smelled nice. Without much thought, the hoodie looked expensive. I brought it closer to my nose and took a loud sniff.

I hung it on the hangar and started to undress to take a bath.

Soon, I was done and walked back to my room. I just hoped the girls wouldn't come back until I was done.

I started getting dressed, putting on a black jean skirt and one of my worn-out T-shirts. It may not be the best, but I don't have any other choice.

I let my hair fall on my butt and applied some light makeup on my face before grabbing my handbag. I only have one handbag, and that's why I need to find a part-time job to save up for a new one.

Suddenly, my phone rang loudly and I pulled it out. It's an old phone, but it's all I can afford. The call was from my dad, and I answered with a smile on my face.

"Are you at school now?" His voice echoed in my ear, and I nodded my head even though he couldn't see me.

"Yes, Dad, I'm at school. I'm ready to go to class now," I replied through the speaker, and I heard my dad let out a sigh.

"Take care, daughter. Don't let everything become too difficult for you. If you feel overwhelmed, you can always come back home," he said, referring to the situation the school administration put me in. No parent would want their daughter to work as a servant for their peers, but I guess my circumstances are different because I don't have any other choice.

"Okay, Dad, I will. Thanks," I replied, and then the door swung open, revealing my three roommates. The looks they gave me made it clear they were up to something. "Bye," I said into the speaker, ending the call and putting my phone back in my bag.

"Are you planning to leave your clothes scattered on the bed and go to class?" one of my roommates asked, and my gaze shifted to the clothes on the bed.

"I'll clean it up when I come back from school," I replied, turning my attention back to the front.

The girl who had approached me when I first arrived walked over and extended her hand for a handshake. "My name is Nova, nice to meet you," she said, smiling in a way that could melt a heart. If she hadn't shown me her ruthless side when I first got here, I might have fallen for her smile.

"My name is Niylah," I replied, accepting her handshake. I knew nothing good would come out of it. I knew that for her to offer me a handshake, she must have a plan in mind. Her grip tightened around my fingers, and I tried to pull away, but she held on tight. What was I expecting? This school is full of alphas. It's not a school for a weak person like me, and I know that once they find out I'm a weak omega, the torment will only get worse. But I'll do my best to keep it a secret, even though I know it'll be hard.

She finally let go of my hand and turned to the girls causing havoc in the back. "This is Hilda, the only daughter of Alpha Leo. Her dad holds half of the assets this school owns," she pointed to the second girl, "Her name is Ivory, the second and last daughter of Alpha Jacob, the owner of the KISCT industry. You know that industry, right?" My eyes refused to close as she continued, "And my name is Nova, the first daughter of my family, and my dad is the governor of the state we're in."

I couldn't believe it. How could the administration pair me with these people? Did they plan to make my life a living hell? The first one is Hilda, her dad owns half the assets of this school. And the second one, Ivory, her dad owns the biggest company in our country, I can't believe I will meet the daughter of Alpha Jacob in this school, I've always dream to get sign by Alpha Jacob since they are known for producing best Pianist in every years, any pianist they sign withing a year would surely Collect an Award within a short period of time, I just wish I and Helana will not be in bad side of each other. And now, Nova, whose dad is the governor of the state. The three really hold important Role. I don't want to offend them.

But Why would they put such influential people with me? Plus, they're rich enough to have their own private houses. Why stay here with me, a mere poor Omega?

"I guess your dad explained why you're here? You're my maid," Nova said, walking towards her bed. Her statement took my breath away.

"Nova!! The one the admin wants me to be a maid too," I murmured, and she smirked as if she heard me right.

"These are my friends, and they're also your bosses. Respect them the way you respect me. They're kind," she said, and I nodded. "I'm not too cruel, and I have my reasons for staying in the hostel. So I'll urge you to behave yourself. I heard you're a good pianist. If you behave, I might be able to help you with your career," she said, arranging her books inside her bag. Her statement brought a smile to my face. At least she promised to help with my career.

"Arrange the room before coming to class," she said, directing her attention to Hilda and Helena. "Girls, let's go to class," she commanded, and the two girls walked to where their bags were and carried them.

"Take care," Nova said before walking out of the room, and the girls followed. As soon as they stormed out, I jumped to my feet. I'm happy that no matter what they do to me, she will help me with my career.

I walked to my bed and opened my closet, feeling a sense of happiness as I started arranging my clothes inside my bag. I couldn't wait for her to start fulfilling her promise.

It took me a few minutes to finish arranging my clothes and neatly place the bedsheet. I did the same with the pillowcase, organizing all the scattered clothes in the closet.

Releasing a loud breath, I walked out of the room and locked it. The door could be locked and unlocked with a pin. The admins had shared the password with me, making it easier for me to secure the room.

I checked my wristwatch and realized it was almost midnight. I quickly took off, silently praying that the lecturer wouldn't be in class until I arrived.

I ran to my destination, and when I reached the classroom, the lecture was already there. I gathered my courage and took a step inside the hall. I respectfully greeted the lecturer, and he replied with a nod as I finally made my way in.

All eyes were on me, and I knew exactly why they were staring. It was a surprise to see Nova and the others sitting together. I couldn't believe we were in the same class. beside them was Henry and the guy who had helped me earlier. I don’t know why, but the two names stuck to my head.

“Henry, Liam” I muttered As I changed my direction, I came across the most shocking thing of my life. Alpine, the person I had tried my best to ignore all these years, the one who made my secondary school life unbearable, was in the same department and at the same level as me. How was this possible? She graduate before me so why is she here? Is this some sort of plan to torment me for years?
