AUDREY’s POV

"Look at her shoes, I'm sure she bought it from the market of ancient" One of the girls said.

"And her hair, so rough and shabbish"

"She looks weird"

They insulted me and hurried to catch up with Simon, handsome-but rude guy.

I would have treated their fvck up instead i shot them a hard glare because they’re right, I don't belong here, I don't.

This is all mom's fault. Oh no!

"Hey Audrey.... Right? " Someone called.

I fought back the wanting-to-drop tears.

Wait, was I gonna cry? Ugh!

"Hi" I looked up to him

Him? Why is it another him?

"I'm Kyle" He said, smiling widely.

"You know my name" I replied back sheepishly.

"Yeah Audrey, and you are a newbie"

"Yeah" I said turning away from him.

Staying away from anymore trouble.

"I saw what just happened and you are still sitting here" He said.

"Yes? "

"Are you out of your mind? Those girls or even the guy could hurt you when they return and still sees you sitting here. And well, I don't have a seat mateif you don't mind" He said pointing to his seat which was at the centre of the class.

"And then, some girls would come here too and yell at me again right? " I said adamantly.

"I'm not leaving this place" I added, shaking my head.

"Hey you are a newbie.There is much you don't know, I really need to enlighten you" He pulled me by my arm to his seat and made me sit next to him.

"Be my seat partner" He proposed.

I rolled my eyes, trying not to smile.

Well, I'm glad someone is trying to make friends with me.

"Simon is a very popular guy" He resumed.

"So? " I smirked.

"That's why he is so pompous and rude ¿ and so many girls drool over him" The Kyle guy said.

I gave another eye roll "That's a lame reason, you said the guy is so arrogant ..how would some stupid girls drool over such attitude? ugh! "

"Well, as you already know this school is filled with rich students. Simon is the wealthiest, his father own all the wealth"

"An over-statement obviously" I scorned. "How stupid of you, boasting about someone else's wealth" I said and he frowned and turned away.. That's because I called him stupid.

"I'm sorry" I quickly apologized.

I'm still new here, I know I'm so brave but I shouldn't start stepping on people's nerves yet.

Besides, in a class of 20 students I think...He is the only one willing to talk to me.

"I'm sorry" I repeated softly.

He smiled and turned to me not reluctantly.

I love this kinda guy.. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I'm a kind of girl with multiple crushes. Lol or maybe i am only enjoying his company, it’s not a crush.

"But, what the hell, he is just a student not a celebrity or something and you're telling me he is famous? "

"He is the talk of the internet, you sure have a cell phone don't you? His father is very prosperous, would you believe if I tell you he built this school and he owns so many buildings here in Wearous estate even in other estates? " Kyle rushed all words.

"It's okay; like I don't wanna hear more because I don't care" I said "The key part about the guy is he lacks good manners and you are pretending not to be his friend"

"Never! I can never be friend " He exclaimed

"Well, Whatever" I said and he looked at me with keen interest and he smiled. "Uhm? What is it?” I asked.

"You are different from other girls, you are not crazy or so happy about the fact that I said Simon is the richest guy in the school" He said.

"Oh.. Nonsense, why would I? "

"You know.. Most girls are after Simon because of his money. That's what 99.5% of girls do.. When a guy has a lot of money, they stick to you more than a glue" He expatiated.

These words hit me so hard, it's the same mistake my mom made and unfortunately, the guy jilted her _ my supposed father.

"I hope my instinct about you is right. I dislike Simon and it would hurt me if I find out that you are one of those girls that wants him" He said.

Ok, please can someone bail me out from this loquacious guy.

Just in time,

Oh Good, someone came to save me from this guy.

"Hi Kyle, Hi Newbie" A girl walked toward us and said.

"I'm Audrey" I don't like being called Newbie.

"Meet Elena, my friend" Kyle said and Elena stretched her hands to have an handshake with me. Then we shook hands.

Wait! The first set of people I met were unfair but these ones, I'm so glad to have them.

"You are welcome to Wearous High School" She said to me and I smiled - remembering how I never wanted to be here at first b'cos I thought there won't be nice people that would want to make friends with me but here they are; Kyle and Elena.

"So tomorrow, we would go on a tour around the school and I'll tell you somethings you ought to know" Elena offered.

"Well, I already told her" Kyle said.

She gave him a light punch on his shoulder and said "When would you stop being a reporter?" and I laughed.

Right, he's kind of a talkative but a jovial one.

"Whatever, Hey Audrey, I'm all yours tomorrow, we will tour around the school" Elena said to me.

"Err... Well, I do not really need to go walk around the school... There are guides and instructions that I can follow" I told her.

"Oh Okay.. " Elena said and Kyle mocked, showing her his tongue.

Simon returned to the classroom and those girls were still with him, the three of them.. acting like mosquitoes. But seriously, don't they have work to do?

As if he was looking for me, He ( The Simon guy) turned to where I sat and I froze.

He scoffed and went to his seat. Maybe Kyle was right.. If I hadn't left, he would have been on my neck.
