"Mom, this is all your fault!" Wendy grumbled as she sprinted her way down the hallway, clutching a book in one hand and the strap of her bag in the other. She was gasping for air from the running that she did before she heard her mother's nonchalant reply from the other line. "Why would be it's always my fault when you come to your school late, huh Wendy?" There's faint buzzing sound in the background telling Wendy that her mom could possibly currently driving on the way to her workplace. She roll her eyes as she take a turn at the corner, "Because frankly speaking, you are my mom and you're the responsible one to wake me up for school!" she says sarcastically. Eventhough, she didn't see it she was sure enough her mom was also rolling her eyes from the other line and that what really annoyed her more. How could it be possible that her mother acts like a toddler almost all the times leaving her the responsibility for being the matured adult instead. "Whatever you say," came the short reply. Wendy groaned. What do she expect? It will always ended up like this anyways. "I'm hanging up now," "Wait!" Her mom suddenly called out, stopping her from tapping the end button. "What?" she say in an irritated tone. There's a long paused before her mother spoke again, "I forgot to put your lunch box inside your bag before you left so maybe you could just buy your foods for lunch today," Wendy gritted her teeth, "MOM!" **** "You're late again, Ms. Son." Teacher Kim greeted her by the entrance of the door. He was looking down at her with an accusing look as if she did something terrible when in fact she didn't. First of all, it wasn't her fault that her mom forgot to woke her up this morning, not only that, she also forgot to iron her uniform leaving her with no other choice but to iron it first by herself. She gritted her teeth and let her head hang low in both annoyance and embarrassment, "I'm sorry sir. I didn't notice the time that's why," "You didn't notice the time?" Teacher Kim says in disbelief and Wendy wanted nothing but for the ground to break into half and engulf her now. How stupid she is for inventing such lame excuse and expecting her teacher to believe on it. Great. "That's so unbelievable for someone as smart as you to use such excuse to convince me, Ms.Son" her teacher was disappointed, it was clear in his voice. "I'm sorry sir." the only words that came out from . "What's happening here?" Both of them snapped their head in unison when they heard someone's voice from behind. Wendy unconsciously gulp when she saw the person's face. That oh-so-familiar look and smirk that she really hate the most. Oh how she wish she could ripped that off anytime soon. "Ms.Bae," It was teacher Kim who greeted her first, Wendy remain standing there doing nothing and just staring at the newcomer. Irene's slowly walk towards them. She stare at her and smirk before she averted her attention at teacher Kim, "Good morning to you too, Mr. Kim" she say, her voice were soft and sweet but Wendy was sure it's fake. She scoff and Irene raise an eyebrow at her which Wendy only reciprocated with a challenging look. Irene was amused and she started laughing which confuses the other two. "What are you laughing at, Irene?" Irene bit on her bottom lips as if to restrain her laughter, briefly glancing at the confuse blonde before looking back at the confuse teacher infront of her, "Nothing," she say, shaking her head," I just remembered something funny" then she stared back at Wendy. Wendy suddenly shudder at the intensity of Irene's stare, it's as if she's trying to murder her through that look. She unconsciously swallowed. 'What's wrong with her?' "Well, if that so," teacher Kim nodded finally convinced by the latter's lies. Wendy's left eye twitch. Here she thought, Mr. Kim was clever enough to notice that he had been trick by the devil herself but looks like she's wrong, he's just as naive as he is. She couldn't believe Irene makes him believe with such lies as easy as that. "Sir?" Irene called out and the two stared back at her. Wendy wanted to puke when she saw the devil making some cute puppy face, faking an innocent look as always. "Y-yes?" she noted to mentally face-palmed herself when she heard their teacher stutter as if he was having a hard time to control himself. 'She thought he's the only sane living creatures in this class? Ugh! Wendy felt betrayed! "Could you let me still attend your class even if I am late?" she made a pouty face and Wendy couldn't anymore control herself and fake a gagging sound. Irene snap at her and briefly throw her a glare before staring back at teacher Kim again with this oh-ty-pout on her face. "Uhm," Teacher Kim scratches the back of her head " If that's w-what you want, Irene" a smug grin escape from the latter's lips and she cheerfully jump and suddenly hug teacher Kim. Wendy's jaw drop. How could he? She let the devil pass but her? "Sir!" she step in, clenching her jaw as she look directly at him. "You know that so unfair!" Teacher Kim look at him dumbfoundedly then at Irene then back at her, "I'll let you pass too if you want but only this time, Son" he said "Just because you let her pass first you're also letting me in too?" she asked in a mocking tone, "I couldn't believe this school allowing such uncharacteristic action to exist in here. I thought they're sane enough" "Yah! Watch your words, kid! You know what punishment you'll going to get for stating such rude remarks towards your own school!" Wendy clench her fist as she say, "Tell that to yourself first, sir. You know what punishment you'll going to get for treating your own student unequally and making some favoritism. For what? Just because they're rich?" Teacher Kim was taken aback by her words. He was just standing there with his mouth slightly open. He tried to close it, then open it then close it back. 'Caught you!' "Fine!" he breathed out, "Let's settled this and don't let the school know about this," he pointed a look at Wendy then he resume," As for a fair settlement, I then decided to send you both to a detention after your final class this afternoon." "WHAT?" the two uttered in unison. "No way," Irene argue stubbornly, glaring at their teacher then at Wendy, "You can't do this to me. I'm the campus queen bee and I'm powerful enough to let you suffer for treating me like this and you know that!" she treathened, her mood swiftly turn from the calm and bright awhile ago into this dark, scary and i-could-kill-you-this-instant aura. 'Wow! 'Talking about bipolar' "I- " teacher Kim stammered, Wendy could sense that he's also nervous and maybe scared too. Well, she can't blame him who isn't be scared when you come face to face with the devil spawn herself. "Do something!" Irene scowled Teacher Kim tilted his head at Wendy as if asking for a back up. Wendy sigh. Now she could finally conclude that all of her expectation about this man was only her own imagination and not even a single bit of it is real. "We'll do it sir. Don't worry," teacher Kim finally manage to breath out the air he's holding. "What?-what? Who says I'm doing it? Not in your wildest dreams, loser!" Irene's fuming voice echoed along the empty hallway but Wendy and teacher Kim decided to ignore her this time as the both of them made their way inside the room. "Yah! We're not done yet!" ***** "Detention?" Rose leaned forward from her seat, looking at Wendy in disbelief. The blonde slowly nodded her head while taking a sip of her drinks. "And why would it be out of all people it would be Irene Bae you'll be with?" she added frowning, throwing some subtle glare at the direction of Irene's table, a few meters from where they're sitting at. Wendy sigh and immediately averted her eyes from the devil's table when she saw her looking - I mean -glaring at her direction. 'Of course, she's mad at you for what you'd done to her awhile ago.' she thought to herself then shakes her head to erase it. Even she herself couldn't also take an answer for the same question that Rose had asked to her so she just shrug her shoulder. Rose groaned as she leaned back on her seat, "If you need a back up, I'm available anytime." She said with a serious face and Wendy couldn't help but giggle at this. She couldn't really picture a delinquent troublemaker Rose in her mind that will going to start a fight. She's such a fluff ball to do that. "I'm fine, really so you have nothing to worry," she said biting her bottom lips to suppress her smile. Rose drew in a long deep breath before nodding her head, "Fine, if you say so but I'm just curious..." she trailed off, "What do you think could be the pu
