Nerd Vs Cold

(Year: 2006

  Age: 12)

     On a Sunny day with the sun shine bright in the sky, Emma and her mother walked down Queens Blvd. Emma loved street shopping. She and her mother had to go and buy a present for her father. It was his birthday and Emma was very excited. She was born wealthy but some of the business her father does we're not good. Emma finally stopped in front of a shop and saw a black lamp. She remembered her fathers lamp, all broken and old, and thought it would be a great present for him.
     "Mommy can we go inside?" She asked. She nodded and they walked into the store. Emma ran towards the lamp and examined it. It looked exactly the same as the one her father has but the button are shaped like a heart. She thought it was for girls but when she made her own story, it could be for both girl and boy. "I want this one. I think it's a good present for daddy." 
      "Are you sure? It has a heart on it." Emma's mother said with a confused look. 
      "Although it has a heart on it, the heart could stand for our love. When dad press it, the lamp would light up. It's just like our heart lighting up as one." Emma explained. 
      "Your so smart. I'll buy this one. We'll go home and rap the present up together." Emma nodded. They went to check up and left the store. Emma's mother took out her phone and called her driver to pick them up. After 5 minutes, a black Audi stopped in front of Emma and her mother. They went to the back seat and the driver drove away. 
     "Madam, where do you want to go?" The driver said. "Bring us home." The driver nodded and drove them home. After 20 minutes, Emma finally got home. She ran inside and went to her room to get her rapping paper. She ran down and gave them to her mother and they rapped up the present together. 
     "MADAM!!! MADAM!!!" Someone shouted. He ran in, breathing hardly. "Assistant Chao... What happened to you?" Madam asked. Emma sat closer to her mother. "CEO... CEO... He got into a car accident. There was a problem with the red light so a MTA bus crashed into CEO's car." He explained. Emma looked upset. She was scared and worried. She understood everything Assistant Chao said. "Your lying. Today is his birthday, he can't get into an accident. TELL ME YOUR LYING!?!" Madam cried. "TELL ME YOUR LYING!!" 
     She had already knelt down on the floor and cried. She cried and cried. Emma stood behind her and also started crying. She hugged the present as tight as she could. Just when she was about to speak, a pack of people came in. They were all wearing black clothes. "Take their stuff away!" The one in the middle said. 
     "What are you guys doing!! This belong to me!!" Madam shouted out them. "Not anymore old women. Your husband own us millions of dollars. Now he's dead, I have to take these things away from you. Even with these, it's not even enough." He waved at his companions and all of them started to take more stuff. Madam begged but didn't work. Emma and her mother was kicked out of their house. Assistant Chao didn't know what to do. He gave Emma's mother a few thousand dollars so that they could have something to eat. They denied it at first but at the end they still excepted it. They didn't have any place to go. Emma, one hand holding her mothers hand and the other hand holding the present.

     "Master, are you sure you don't want to wear something nicer? I think you'll get bullied less that way." 
     "I think I'm fine like this. I don't really care about those people. If they don't know how to be human, then it's really hard for them to learn or change." 
     "As you wish. Your breakfast is ready downstairs." 
      The young master walked downstairs and ate his breakfast. He went to the front door and knelt down to put his shoes on. His driver was behind him, following him from behind. He opened the back door for his young master. He went in and sat down. The driver ran to the drivers seat and buckled up. He started to drive out of his lawn and headed to young masters school. 

     On the other hand, a long legged lady rode her bike to her destination. Behind her bike was two basket filled with bentos. She went inside the store and gave 5 bentos to the cashier. "Here's your bentos. Two with pork and the others with chicken." She set the bentos on the counter and looked up at the boss. "The total is $40." She said. The boss gave her the money and took the bags into her office. "Thank you and enjoy your food." She left the store and took out her list. "Next destination Princeton University." She put on her helmet and sat on top of her bike. She rode her bike with an very excited feeling. While riding her bike, she was thinking about the school. She was too over excited to the point, she had past a red light. A black car crashed onto her bike and she fell onto the floor. The car gave a massive stop. 
     "What do you think your doing? Didn't you see it's a red light." The driver said. The girl got up from the floor. She looked around and saw her $200 worth of bentos splattered on the floor. "My bentos.!" She shouted. "You..." She pointed at the driver. "Pay for my bentos." 
     "Who's going to pay for your crap. You could always go back and remake them." The driver said. The young girl looked very mad. "You think every one is as rich as you? We, who have no money needs to work our off to support our family. Someone like you probably wouldn't understand." 
      "What is the problem here?" A young master came from the back seat said. "She wants money." The driver said. "Excuse me? I didn't said I want money. I just want you to pay for the damage you've costed." 
     "We'll pay you. But you have to tell us a specific amount." The young master said. "$300" she said without thinking. The driver looked surprised. "Are you a bankrupt? That little stuff for 300 dollars?" 
     "Excuse me, 200 was for the food and 100 was for the damages on my bike." The driver became speechless. The young master looked surprised too but gave $300 to her anyways. "Thank you!! You should learn from him." She looked at the driver then to the young master. She turned around and picked up her bike. The last sentence she said to them was, "Make sure to pick the food up. You don't want to get a ticket." She rode off leaving the driver irritated. 
     After 5 minutes, the young girl received a call. 
     "EMMA PARK!! What is taking you so long!?! Why are you still not back yet!! Are you trying to take a break on your work time??" The person in the phone shouted. Emma sticked the phone far away from her ear. After she finished shouting, Emma put the phone next to her ears again and spoke.
     "Sorry boss. I had a little problem going to Princeton so it took a little time." Emma explained. "Where are you now?!?" She shouted. "I'm coming back to the store. There's just one thing I have to tell you. Can you make more bentos because.... All the bentos are sold out and I didn't finish my list yet." Emma lied. "I knew you would say that so I made 50 more. Today you have to sell all of them." The boss said. Emma looked very surprised since she never sold so many bentos in one day all by herself. "What if I sold 45?" Emma asked. "Don't come back." The boss answered. She hanged up when Emma was about to reject. "How can there be such a person in this world." Emma put her phone away and rode her bike back to the store. ~Those stupid people, the bike want even damaged. Only a little scratch on the side.~

     "Why did you give $300 to that girl? It's so obvious that the food didn't even cost $50." The driver said. "You can't always be so mean to people. One thing she said was true. The point where she said 'poor people have to work their off to support their family' we rich people didn't think about that part." The young master said
     "Young master, some people could trust, some people can't. That women is not someone you should trust." The driver said. "She seems to be a girl to me." 
     5 minutes later, 1 block away from Princeton University. "I'll be leaving now." The young master left the car and watched the car drive away. He was about to leave to go to class when someone stopped him. "Kim Myungsoo." Someone said. He was coming from the left side of L with 3 other companion. "Hello David." L said with a nervous voice.
     
     Emma parked her bike in front of the bento store. She walked in with the money she earned. "Here's $200." She gave the money to her boss and took the two big bags of bentos on the left side of the counter. "Make sure you sell all of them." Emma left the store without replying her. She set the bentos in her baskets and left to her destination. 

     "Looks like the loser came to school today." David said. "Go away David." L was about to leave but David stopped him. "Don't leave. You still haven't done my homework yet." David said. "You could do your homework yourself." L said while looking down. With out L knowing, one of David's friend took his bag and opened it. L want to take it back but the other friends took him by the arm and started to hit him. L crawled on the floor and covered his head with his hands. 

      Finally arrived at Princeton University. Emma was about to get of her bike when she spotted a pack of people. "What the hell are they doing?" Emma rode her bike towards them and bump her bike into one of them. "Just because you guys are not in school doesn't mean you could beat people up." Emma said. "Who do think you are? If you don't leave, I'll have to beat you too." David said. "Beat me up...? Excuse me." She said with a y attitude. "You really think bullying someone could make you stronger?" As she kept on talking, she walked forward. "All you guys are doing is bully someone who is smarter and stronger than you. All you guys are doing is make people think you are losers." Emma finished. 
     "Losers? I think you should talk about Kim Myungsoo. He's the schools nerd and coward. Nobody know where he come from." 
     "Why would someone tell you about their personal life? Especially to someone like you!?!" Emma said. David looked irritated. "Fine, just wait. I'll come back and get you." David said. David and his friends left leaving L on the ground. Emma turned around and saw the male student on the ground. She couldn't see the students face but she helped him anyways. "Sir? Are you ok??" She said while kneeling down. L looked up and fixed his glasses. "I'm fine." 
     "Bicycle crasher?" Emma looked confused. Then she looked at L's clothes. "Your really the schools nerd... And coward???" 
     "I'm not a cow~~ ouch!!" He covered his bruise with his hands to show less pain. "You look hurt... Very badly. I think I should bring you home. Tell me your address." Emma said. she took out a mini notebook and a pen. "I'm fine. Only a little bruise." L rejected. 
     "If you don't get rid of the germs, you'll get sick." 
     "Why are you so nice to me?" L asked. "I'm always this nice. Those people need to know that you are human. Not a machine." Emma said. She got up and helped L up. "So... Where do you live???" L took the notebook out of her hand and wrote down his address. Emma called a taxi. She waited for the taxi to arrive. She told the driver to put her bentos in the back trunk while she go lock her bike. They sat inside the taxi and Emma gave the address to the driver. 30 minutes later, Emma and L finally got to their destination. 
     "$33.37." The driver said. Emma looked surprised. She never payed so much for taxi before. L gave a little smile and took out his wallet. "I'll pay for it." L said. 
     "Your so nice." Emma said. She got out of the car and went to the back trunk. She took out the bentos and went to L. "So where do you live?" Emma asked.
     L pointed towards his left. Emma looked up, wide open, and her eyes wide open. "Your actually a very very very very rich person." She looked at the house then to L. "I think you are a nice person so I'm willing to tell you some of my personal life." Emma wasn't even listening, all she was doing was looking at the mansion with an amazed look. 
     They walked into the mansion, Emma still with the same face. Two of the maids ran up to L. "Master are you ok?"
     "I'm fine." L said. One of the maid went to get the aid box. The other one kept on looking at L with a worried face. "You really live here??" Emma asked. "Come sit down I'll tell you some of my personal life but you have to tell me some of yours." L said. Emma looked at him and nodded. She knew she had nothing to say but she agreed anyways. She sat down on the couch across from L. "So what else do you have besides this mansion?" Emma asked. L sat up straight and fixed his nerdy glasses. "My mom own Princeton University. My dad is the CEO of an advertising company. I don't like people knowing my personal life because I know they are going to encounter me because of my money. I think someone like you who have the same view points as me, are very rare." L finished while looking down at the ground. "Oh." 
     "Nows your turn." L said. "Me? Um... I don't really have anything personal. Can ask you a question?" L nodded. "I thought you are a nerd? How come you still care about other people's personal life?" Emma asked. "I don't like to give people information without them giving me some of their information." L replied.
     "Oh. I have a sick mother and a step-father. Um... My step-father loves gambling so my mother and I moved many times." 
     "What happened to your father?" L asked. "He died when I was young." Emma replied. "Oh. I'm sorry." There conversation ended when one of the maid came. "Young master, Madam and old madam are here." She said. "Oh ok. Thank you!!"
     "Your parents are home? I think I should leave now. I don't want to be a burden and I have to sell 50 bentos today. If I don't, I can't go back to work." Emma stood up slowly. "Bye." 
     "Wait, I'll buy them all. How much?" L said. "Really?? Then the total is $400." L pulled out his wallet and paid for the bentos. "When you take the money, can you stay for a little while?"
