Jerelca's PoV
I've been here at this school for a week. I also had a friend even though I didn't have the same level as them.
The Whole School and Classroom Election are about to start so we gathered in the canteen. "Are you sure to run us our school's president, Honeylyn?" Gray asked her.
There's something between the two. It's just that we're not talking about that.
"Yeah," Honeylyn replied shortly.
"It's in the rules that once a student becomes an officer you can't join Aquamarine's Search For King and Queen," Class Pres said anxiously while Zehgfred stared at him tirelessly.
Honeylyn smiled and looked me in the eye.
"We shouldn't worry about that. There's someone worthy to replace me," she replied.
She wasn't even nervous. When those Rank A's won. People like me look down. "What if Valerie won?" Karl asked.
"She's not the problem during the pageant. The problem is that Rank A. I'm sure she can easily make Valerie kneel in front of her so we're going to find someone who can be honest with her." Honeylyn replied as if she knew her very well, from head to foot.
"What do you exactly mean?" Zehgfred asked.
"Well, Valerie and I always work together every time the pageant comes. We never let her enter the top 3. But now maybe she has a chance but a bigger thorn in her throat will block her," she replied.
Valerie is working with Honeylyn together? So maybe Valerie isn't fighting Honeylyn because she's the reason why that arrogant lady is ranked in Rank A. "Who are we going to replace fir you?" Gray asked.
"Well, who else does she hate to fight the most. You'll know soon. For now, you won't participate in Election Jerelca, okay?" Honeylyn said so I just nodded in agreement. I put my food in my mouth and didn't bother to notice them anymore.
"I want to do that for you," Ashzarre said softly from behind me.
Then came another crazy person who said something. I just had little patience for this man.
"Son of a turtle!" I shouted because he just speaks without telling me.
"No, it's supposed to be me" Karl protested and stood up.
"Jerelca, if you want. I'll just join you at another table to eat. I think they're bothering you" Gray said and Honeylyn stared at him.
"Better yet" I replied. I was about to get up to move to another table when Ashzarre hugged me from behind. This is a drama.
"Are you going to leave me here?" He growled.
Karl pulled him away and so he released me. Gray stood up and took my plate.
"Let's go?" He asked me.
I just nodded.
"Gray?" Honeylyn called to him.
"Well?"
"Can we talk later? I just wanted to tell you something" she said lifelessly.
What can there be between these two? Maybe it's something private. Gray left so I followed him. It's better to eat alone for happily ever after.
"My fiancee, come back here!" Karl shouted so the students' attention turned to me.
"No! Be with me. You'll become my wife." Ashzarre shouted.
"You know what? If Jerelca gets angry, she'll stay away from you two" I heard Class Pres threatening as the two mumbles fell silent. Gray found an empty table and put it beside me. He also pulled out a chair for me. "That was-"
"Shut up!" Class Press interrupted the speech of the two.
"Gray, you don't have to do that. Even though I'm studying here, I'm still not at your level," I told him and smiled.
He also smiled back at me and sat down in the front seat. Now we are facing each other.
"A real gentleman will treat every girl special" he replied. I ate my food and chewed.
"Do Honeylyn and you have something?" I asked from somewhere.
The slipperiness of my tongue. What is being said?
"Supposedly. It's just that she has a boyfriend already. Rank S too. She's my childhood friend and I loved her more than that but maybe we're not destined. I will accept it even if it hurts." He replied to me and became sad.
"I'm sorry ... I'm very noisy, aren't I?" I said so he laughed.
I glanced at Honeylyn and noticed she was thinking something as she glanced at us.
"Wait a minute," I told him and stood up. "Where are you going?" He innocently asked. "I'll just talk to Class Pres," I replied and he just nodded.
The waiter also took my plate. I'm not hungry. I'm just eating for fun.
..
I approached the two, and give a death glare when looking at each other.
"Ashzarre, Karl, Jamaika, Zehgfred, I would have asked you a favor," I said.
"Just you" Ash and Karl said at the same time. They looked at each other and gave another death glare and then avoided each other's gaze.
"Yeah, sure." Jam and Fred answered at the same time.
Because of that, the two of them still have red faces. Yiehh. I love watching them. It's like I'm watching a romantic movie.
"Ah ... I know this is absurd and selfish...Honeylyn, can you go with Gray there first?" I asked him so she looked at me.
She has a poker face now but she stood up and went to Gray. I sat in the empty seat.
"We need to reconcile Honeylyn and Gray," I told them so they frowned.
"You know my elca, what they want to do, they will do it. What they don't want they won't do. We can't force them to accept each other" said Ash.
These people don't understand. They just want me to be their girlfriend for the game. It's really hard to explain things to someone who doesn't want to understand.
"You know, they love each other-"
"Rich people only marry for wealth, my fiancee. There is no such word in our vocabulary" Karl interrupted.
The true color of these two did come out at last. "In that case, you're just chasing me to play. I should just avoid you all. Rich people are selfish," I told them coldly.
"Jerelca, let them fix their problem themselves" Zehgfred added.
Why am I talking to people who don't know this? I want to be their friend but just it seems like their friendship is just a game. Whoever they think can do something, they are the ones they make friends with.
"Of course, the words unity and real friendship are not in your vocabulary," I said and stood up.
They followed me with their eyes. They were silent because they didn't understand anything.
"My fiancee?"
"My Elca?"
"Shut up you two. Do you know what true friendship is? That is empathy and support for each other. If you can't do that thing. I will never accept any of you as long as you will not be forced to understand true friendship "I told them and walked away.
Class Pres a followed met held my hand even when I turned my back. "Jerelca, don't do this. Our plan will be ruined" pleaded Class Pres so I confronted her.
"Jamaica, is that why you made friends with me because you use me as an ingredient in your plans? I still think of everyone around me, you're the real one but it looks like you have the thickest mask. Yes, it's hard for me but I don't follow the wishes of anyone like you. I don't care even if you lose "I said. I know it's selfish but what does everyone care about. They don't have a heart.
