"Hey carrot-head! Watch out!!" A loud voice cooed as i was walking pass the field. I paused from my tracks and avert my gaze to the football team or should i say, group of jocks but i knew it was the wrong move

As soon as i turn my head, a hard object collided on my face, banging me down to the ground making all my books flew to the air. I hissed because of the pain while i was still laying down making the other students laugh

"Next time, be careful and don't you ever step your ugly foot on this field. Loser wimp!" Bryan, the football team's captain. He's the jockest jock among his mates, if that make sense then be it

I heard them laugh again as Bryan kick my shin before grabbing the ball and walking away with a smirk

I sighed while watching them laugh at my agony. I just sat down and look for my glasses. Yes, you heard that right. I have glasses, and that means i'm a nerd. I guess that's the main reason why i always got pick on and beat up and got shove off the lockers. The other reason was because of my low status. Sounds cliche, i know. But that's just normal, getting insulted because of having the privilege to study on a prestigious university, i'm a scholar that means i'm not as rich as the other students

I saw my glasses not so far from where i was laying on and quickly grab it, checking if it has damage. Not to my luck, it has small crack on it. I tried wiping it off but, yeah. It was cracked. I h-..

"H-hey!" I stuttered as i look up to see who got my glasses. My eyes widen and mirrored fear as i saw the person i'm scared of. The least person i want to encounter, at least for today

She stared at me coldly then to my broken glasses back to me before she smirk. By that, i knew i have no escape. I knew, i have to face something that i don't want. No one will ever ask for

My breath hitch as i saw her throw the glasses on me and it landed on my forehead before it touch the ground all broken into pieces

I stared at it with glassy eyes. My breath starting to get heavy as my sobs escaped my mouth, ignoring the pain i felt on my forehead

"T-that's..." i stuttered. I slowly held it with my shaking hand. These were given by my mother before she passed away. This is the only thing i have left that reminds me of her

"What now? You're going to cry over that damn cheap glasses? Psshh, don't worry i'll repay you. Stupid carrot-head" she said nontheless with cross arms as people around us started laughing yet again

"Get the fuck out of my way now stupid wimp" she kick some sands on me so i cover myself

I quickly pick up the broken glasses and gently put it back on it's box before picking up my books. I don't want to get insulted by the same person again

My gaze fell on the person picking up the rest of my books. I knew it's one of the jocks so i just let him, i don't want further trouble so i'll just let them have their fun. By shoving me off

I stood up straight after i pick the last book left on the ground. Just hugging the books on my chest

"I suppose, this is yours? Here" i gentle, man-like voice said handing me my books that shocks me. I look up slowly to him and saw him smiling oh-so friendly that caught me off guard yet again. I really wasn't expecting him with that expression. He's a new face. I guess he's new here. I studied he's face and it doesn't seem like he has some bad intentions

"Hi" he greet with the same gentle voice. I bowed at him before grabbing my books from him. I look back to see if she was still there, fortunately, she's gone... I guess? I really hope she won't show up

"Can i walk you to your class?" He asked. He seems very nice. I could've say yes but i don't feel like attending class for now

"I-i'm sorry. I-i have somewhere else to go. T-thank you" after i've said that, i ran to the back of the university's walls then to the small passage where a small yet beautiful garden was hid
