Chapter 4
"Argh! Son of a pimple."
I complained while looking at the mirror inside the bathroom in my room at the Sandford's house. Every room had its own bathroom in here.
"One of them didn't even disappear yet but there's another one already? Haller? Are all of you pimples making out a lot that's why you're increasing so much? You guys reproduce so much!"
I look crazy in here, I'm talking to myself and my pimples. I wasn't worried about my pimples before but I noticed them earlier while I was washing my face, I was just staring at my face for a long time.
I know I don't look good, but when I looked at my self on the mirror for a while, that's when I realized that I really was ugly. My face is disgusting, like, there's a lot of pimples.
In my age, it's normal to have them but why don't other people in my school have them? They're the same age as me, right?! Unfair!
"And what's with my hair too."
I tried brushing my hair but it was so tough that two of the comb's teeth got removed.
"I guess I do only comb it once a day."
Not kidding, I only comb my hair when I need to go to school and that's it. I look like witch after that, my hair becomes very messy. Sometimes I just tie it up to make myself look sensible.
I'm too lazy to comb it, it'll be messy again anyway, right? So why bother?
"Ah. Hopeless, you're ugly if you're ugly."
I just quickly dressed myself up with my uniform and left the room.
After leaving my room, the Cookie monster also went out of his while wearing his uniform, it's good to know that he's not super lazy unlike the other rich kids that even had people help them with wearing clothes.
He at least does stuff on his own. Because if I was the one who did them for him, then what, is he a baby?
We looked at each other but don't expect for us to smile nor say good morning to each other, that's not happening. But he greeted me at least, a morning greeting in Cross's way.
"WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?!" he irritatingly shouted.
"Is it bad to look? Are you a display in a museum that needs entrance fee just to look at? Excuse me okay?"
"I'd really want to stab you with a knife," he said while suppressing his anger.
"Then do it, I'll haunt you afterwards and will not stop until you become crazy."
"Tss. You're annoying! Start acting like my maid not like you're not working. Remember, I'm paying you."
"You mean your dad, it's not even your money."
"You're still answering back! Here!"
He suddenly threw his bag, good thing I caught it.
"Bring it to my classroom."
He turned around and left, I wanted to complain but it's an order so I needed to follow it. But it's just so irritating, he's even using a car to go to school so why doesn't he just bring it? Why ask me to bring this heavy bad when I just walk to school! Annoying!
I was extremely exhausted when I arrived at school, the day just started but my sweat is already dripping.
Wouldn't you be tried after carrying two bags? Good thing that I wasn't late yet, there's still 5 minutes before the bell so I went straight to that monster's classroom to give him his bag.
"Excuse me, do you need something?"
I was blocked by two rude girls at the door in front of their classroom. They're looking at me from head to toe, I think they're judging me. Err, sure, you guys can be the beautiful ones.
"Ah, I'm just give Cross something."
One of the girls suddenly slapped my cheek, I'm not sure why.
"How dare you?! How dare you call Prince Cross Sandford by name? Gosh. How uneducated!"
Really?! They slapped me because I only called Cross "Cross"? What's Cross suppose to be? The prince of the Philippines so I need to call him Prince Cross? Are they crazy?
"Hey tomato, stop with your English. And who among us is uneducated? You're the one that slaps others because of a low and inconsiderable reason!"
"What did you just call Riri?! A what? A tomato? OMG!"
She even placed the back of her hand on her forehead and acted like she's going to faint, she even had a melodramatic accent when she said the "TOHMAETAH" part. Really, I want to pinch them from how exaggerated they're acting.
"So what? You both really look like tomatoes with how thick your make ups are!"
"Aba! Look who's talking, a dirt bag."
"Look at Riri and Femme, they're abusing someone at the door again. Who is that? They don't look like our classmate."
I looked at the guy who spoke inside the classroom. There were a lot of them, I think five, two were sitting properly on their seats while the other three were sitting around the table, they might be speaking to each other.
But my attention was drawn to one of the guys sitting on the table and was removing his headphones.
He looked at my direction and both of our eyes met, his eyes were bored as always. He stood up and walked towards us, the two tomatoes quickly went next to him and clung to both of his arm.
"Prince Cross, help us! She's bullying us."
"Yeah! She even slapped me in the face even though I did nothing."
"Ha?! Are you insane? What are you saying? I slapped you? You guys were the one who slapped me. I don't even know anymore. But here."
I quickly gave Cross his bag. "Your bag!"
"What?"
The two tomatoes got surprised, maybe because they saw that Cross's bag was with me and I gave it to him. Oh no, they might discover that I'm working for him, they might harass me even more. By the looks on their faces, they look like this Cross's obsessed fans.
To avoid getting in trouble, I turned around so that I could go away, I was going to be late anyway if I didn't leave now.
The bell's about to ring. But someone grabbed my arm when I was to leave and brought me inside the classroom, it was Cross that pulled me in and he made me face all of his classmates.
"Listen guys, I want you to remember this. This girl..."
He was still pulling me a bit so that everyone in the class could see me. I didn't know what he wanted to do and really wondered why he was pulling me.
"...is my girlfriend."
HUWAAT? HUWOOOW! WOAH! REALLY? NO WAY! OMEEEGASH! Those were everyone's reactions.
I didn't get what he said straight away. It's like my brain stopped loading and suddenly got a syntax error. He didn't stop holding my arm and started pulling me out of the classroom.
"H-Hey! What did you just say?! Are you out of your mind? Are you insane? Are you crazy?! Are you dumb? Are you shit?"
After getting to a corridor in front of a different classroom, he let go of my arm and went close to my ear, which surprised me. He whispered with a deep and heavy voice.
"In your dreams."
Ha?
"I only said that to disturb you, especially my fans. That's to make your life miserable in this school! MWAHAHAHA."
He turned around and went back to his classroom. WHAT THE?! You damn Cross Sandford! Carve this on a stone, you're a monster!!!
