Girl of a player
By iluvtaeny




Standing in front of a magnificent clock tower, a girl with long brown curvy ponytail scanned her surroundings with uncertainty. She was trying to look for someone who is approachable and friendly to help her around. But looking at all the girls who looked stylish with their vibrant sneakers and skirts which were way above the kneecaps that could possibly earn them a detention from the discipline mistress, Tiffany could only mutter to herself whenever she tried to pluck out her courage to ask a student for directions. She felt inferior to them as her dressing seems appalling in comparison to them. She sports a pair of high knee socks and skirt that touches her kneecap. Apparently, three quarter of her legs were covered. Her blouse were perfectly ironed and buttoned up to the collar. No one cares to give the girl with thick black glasses another glance, not to mention, stop and help her out. Another reason that prevented her from soliciting with the passing-by students was her imperfect Korean.


Feeling defeated, Tiffany walk around the campus aimlessly, trying to figure out her new classroom. At the same time, the forlorn looking girl could only feel worse when she was all alone in an unfamiliar place, an unfamiliar country. Tiffany had no choice but to comply with her dad’s wish and followed him back to Korea so as to expand his business there. However, she was thankful that her dad has managed to get her into a prestigious girls’ school in Seoul.


Just as Tiffany was caught in her whirlpool of thoughts, loud and high-pitched screams were heard. She turned around and saw a group of girls gasping in excitement just like they had seen a superstar. Well, the person is really a superstar among the hearts of the schoolgirls. She is a heartthrob to be specific, which receives plenty of gushes from the fanatic young girls. Every smirk, every stride could make knees go weak. An aura of confidence was shown by the young and petite looking girl. Tiffany could not get a good view of that person in the limelight as the latter is either too short or too small a size to be visible. It was only when the girl make a quick turn into the corner to avoid the crowd, Tiffany could catch a glimpse of the brunette. Although it was just a mere one or two seconds, Tiffany could clearly see the side profile of the young lady. Her face was porcelain clear and her lips were peach pink, which made her face glow in radiance. The girl had a cute pointed nose which isn’t really considered to be sharp looking just like Tiffany’s, but it is good enough to enhance the contours of her face. The girl had her bangs clipped up which revealed the cutest forehead that Tiffany had ever seen. At that moment, Tiffany didn’t know whether it was the effect of the crazy crowd, or the pure beauty that captivates her mind. She found it intriguing to know more about this girl. But she doesn’t know where to start or if she had the chance to see her again.


Fifteen more minutes to class time and Tiffany still had not figure out where her classroom is. She began to feel jitters and she felt like she was a helpless soul wandering around. As she passed by a washroom, she decides to go in for a quick wash up to calm herself down. “Tiffany Hwang, don’t worry, you can do it! You can be independent!” She turns on the tap and splash handfuls of water on her face. She was immense with the cool sensation and relieve the effect of the tap water has on her face that she did not realise a pair of on looking eyes behind her. As she lifted her head from the sink, she saw a hand shoving her piece of facial tissue.

“Thanks” Tiffany hastily wipe off the droplets of water on her face and put on her black glasses to take a closer look of the person. Her jaw dropped as the girl before her was the ‘superstar’ that made all the girls went into a frenzy.

“YYou are the ggirl tthat…… “Tiffany didn’t know if it was her shy personality or her limited Korean, or it was just that the girl is just simply adorable and stunning to make her stutter like a fool. She couldn’t help but admire those features of that girl. She has a pair of the eyes of a hamster and a cute pointed nose. Her lips weren’t plump and full but the bottom lip is shapely enough to create wild thoughts in the American girl.

“Well… Are you new here? I haven’t seen you before. And you don’t know my name. Which is rare…? Everyone in the school knows who I am.”
That voice, so crispy clear and tinkling like little jingles. That voice could probably match an angel, though the girl had a cocky aura.

The girl began moving closer to Tiffany who made her heart beat 200 times faster than ever.

“From now on remember my name, its Kim Taeyeon…” as the girl whispered into her ears.
Tiffany never had this feeling before. A feeling of excitement? Just like how excited it is for her when she sees her favourite colour pink. A feeling of anticipation? A feeling of queasiness? Which could probably been the effect of butterflies in her stomach which she could literally feel. Why is it that the close contact with the girl made her face real hot?


“Girl, you should do something about your dressing. Well, maybe I could help.” The last thing that Tiffany could clearly see was a smirk on the shorter girl’s face. In a slick motion, Taeyeon removed the glasses from Tiffany’s face that left the younger girl rooted to the ground and let her do all the things she plans to do. She pulled out the band from Tiffany’s hair and let those locks fall on the girl’s shoulders. She undid 2 buttons from the top of Tiffany’s blouse which revealed some creamy beautiful skin. She folded the waist band of the taller girl’s skirt which slowly reveals more skin of her perfectly toned thighs. With that, the petite girl could not help but showed a piece of satisfied smile as it was now her turn to gawk at her ‘masterpiece’ from head to toe.

All this while, Tiffany just stood there like a mannequin and let Taeyeon do the job.


“Now babe, this is what I call dressing. It’s such a waste that you chose to hide those beautiful features and body of yours.” Taeyeon explains as she walks in circles around Tiffany.

“But I can’t see clearly…” Tiffany tries to reach out to Taeyeon for her glasses but the latter dump those frames into the rubbish bin in a swift movement, which left Tiffany gasped in horror.

“My glasses….!” Tiffany could only pout in defeat.

“You know there is something called contacts? Get a pair of contacts tomorrow. I am sure you have the money to forsake that ugly glasses and get new sets of contacts done right?”

Before Taeyeon made her exit from the washroom, she turns to the girl for another glance.

“I like how you look now. Keep it that way.” She sent a dorky wink to Tiffany just like an arrow being shot through the latter’s heart.


Tiffany staggers along the corridors as she squints hard to make her visions clearer as well. She attracted many glances and stares partly because of her awkward walking, but more of the fact that the girls are stealing glances at the beautiful looking girl. Occasionally, Tiffany would bump into a few bodies and she revealed her eyesmile in apology to the latter and the girls couldn’t help but exclaimed words like “cute”, “adorable”, “angel-looking”.

At this rate, Tiffany would definitely be late for class.
“All thanks to the cute looking girl” Tiffany muttered to herself. However, recalling her encounter with Kim Taeyeon, the superstar in the school makes her heart flutter. She was smiling dorkily to herself until someone waved her hands in front of her eyes in an attempt to bring back her soul.





“Excuse me, are you okay? Do you need help? I am a student leader in this school hence I would be able to help if you need any. ”

Tiffany squint her eyes to take a closer look at the girl before her. She is tall, innocent looking and gives off a friendly aura. She felt like she had met a benefactor as she gives her an earnest reply.

“Um can you show me the way to classroom 2.03? I am a new student here and I happened to lose my glasses. I can’t make my way there by myself.” Tiffany smiled at the girl sheepishly.

“Oh! Are you Tiffany Hwang Miyoung? The new transfer student?”

Tiffany’s mouth dropped to a big “O” and she thought she had met a miss know-it-all.
She nodded in response to the taller girl’s query.

“Hi, nice to meet you. I am Seo Ju Hyun, you can call me Seohyun. I am your new classmate and the class monitor as well. I will take you to our class now.”

Tiffany shot another eyesmile at Seohyun before she held on to the latter’s arm for support. The duo walk with arms linked to their classroom.









As they reached their destination, Seohyun brought Tiffany all the way to her designated seat. Tiffany gasped in astonishment when she saw the person whom she was supposed to sit with.

“Kim Taeyeon?!”

“Well that’s pretty speedy of you to remember my name babe.” Taeyeon gestured for her to take the seat beside her.

Tiffany gladly took the seat beside her and starts to dig out her books and stationeries. She looked like an ostrich while she searches her bag for her stuffs as she tried to prevent eye contact with the person beside her. She could almost feel her heart jump out of when she heard the voice beside her.

“Ti-ppa-ni?” Taeyeon tried hard to pronounce the name that was written on the American girl’s diary. It made the latter giggled as she corrected her with her perfect American accent.

“It’s Tiffany.”

It wasn’t long before the teacher came into the class and commences the maths lesson. Numbers and letters were soon scribbled on the board and everyone was busy jotting down the formulas and equations. Tiffany had a real hard time copying them down as she cutely leaned forward every second to narrow her eyes. Her gesture made the girl beside her chuckled.

Taeyeon took Tiffany by surprise as she pries away her notebook.
“Let me do it for you.”


Hence, Tiffany concentrates by listening attentively to the teacher’s explanation instead while occasionally turning to her right to take a glance at the girl who seems to be more and more attractive every time she looks at her.

The rest of the day at school went well for Tiffany as Taeyeon was scribbling notes on her notepad while she paid attention most of the time. At the end of the last lesson, Taeyeon returned her notepad.

“There you go. And see you tomorrow babe. Remember, get your contacts done.” Tiffany felt her knees go weak when Taeyeon flash a dorky smile. As Taeyeon left the class, Seohyun dragged along another girl to Tiffany who was still shell-shock.

“Tiffany, let me introduce you Yoona. The three of us can go for meals together in the future.” Seohyun introduced her equally tall friend who was busy munching on her chips.

“Hi! I am Yoona, you can call me yoong but not yoongie. Only my hyunnie can call me that.” Yoona wraps her arms around Seohyun.

Tiffany was glad that she had made new awesome friends on her first day. But more importantly, was her first acquaintance with Taeyeon.












Tiffany plops down on her bed after a shower. Remembering the words of Taeyeon, she promptly called her dad to buy a set of contacts on his way home. She lied to her dad that her specs were broken when she was hit by a ball. Her dad then agreed that it is safer for her to wear contacts for her physical education classes as well.

She began to do some revision from the lectures today and she reached for her notebook. A smile crept on her face upon recalling that it was Taeyeon who did the jotting down of notes for her. However, her expression changed drastically when she opens up the notebook.

Hey nerdy babe, there is no point for me to copy down the notes for you especially when I can coach you myself. How about this, I help you in maths, while you help me in English. Deal? From now on, you must dedicate 2 hours after school just for me. I take it as a yes from you.

Taengoo



Tiffany didn’t know whether to be angry or to be happy about it. She was glad that Taeyeon had offered her a rather lucrative deal, which is to spend 2 hours daily with her but she was angry as she wasn’t given a chance to reply, even though she would prolly agree to that deal.

Tiffany couldn’t help but begin to let her mind wander about her remaining school days with Taeyeon. As she flipped through the pages of her notebook, a pink blush was shown on her face.
The rest of the pages were filled with the same sentences, which reads “Tiffany has a y ”.

Taeyeon is such a cute dork.





The next morning, Tiffany asked her servant to prepare an additional lunchbox as she prepares to give it to Taeyeon in school. This time round, Tiffany seems happier as compared to her 1st day at school. She looked forward to meet Seohyun and Yoona, and of course, a person who is gaining a bigger proportion of her heart, Taeyeon.
Tiffany skipped her way into the entrance of the school. She overheard the conversation of two girls who made their way past her.

“I wonder who is the lucky girl who gets to be with Taeyeon this week. I hope it’s me!”
“Omo, no no…. we don’t have a chance anymore. Look! It’s Taeyeon over there! And the girl is Nicole, the president from the dance club!”

Everyone starts rushing to the spot where Taeyeon and Nicole are seated.

Tiffany quickened her pace as well upon hearing something about Taeyeon.
Her heart sank when she saw Taeyeon being lovey dovey with another girl, feeding and wiping off crumbles on the girl’s lips.
She could feel her eyes go watery and she know she couldn’t bear to stand there any longer. She hurriedly made her way towards the classroom instead.

Tiffany laid her head on the desk with her arms folded. Seohyun and Yoona look at her with concern. They thought she might be sick and Seohyun constantly asked if she needs to go to the sick bay. Tiffany repeatedly assures them that her health is perfectly fine. Yoona then began a series of fac
