The villainess ex

The last ex-girlfriend before the heroine swoops in and changes the playboy was a Sexual Assault Resource Center volunteer. You would think that such a person would be kind and understanding towards girls whose confessions are rejected, but that ex-girlfriend named Sarcy did not entertain them. She told them to stop wasting her time.

Those girls were all rejected by the same guy, a playboy named Narcis M. Leed who came from a prestigious family, he was popular in every way. He was good at sports, grades, extracurricular hobbies, and etc. If he had any fault, it would be his handsomeness...

According to many opinions besides his own, he was kind to the most beautiful to the ugliest, the smartest to the dumbest, and the most popular to the outcast. He definitely did not discriminate because he went out with all of them. He made all his exes better people and left them when they didn't need him anymore. He was doing such "good deeds"... until he met the heroine. She didn't need him, but he needed her.

She changed him for the better after his last ex dumped him first. His last ex had left him emotional wounds and scars. He couldn't make Sarcy a better person. Sarcy had told him that he was narcissistic and was leaving emotional scars on his many exes. She told him these things cruelly out of her jealousy towards Elaine. She was a jealous and petty woman and should be fired from her volunteer position in SARC. Elaine had a traumatic childhood that she only told him.... or so it was spread throughout the student body on the first day of college. No one knows who spreaded such rumors, but they really seem to hate you or they are just obsessed with that playboy too much," said Sarcy's friend, Lisa. *(1^1)

*(1o1) {That stuff all happened in high school too.)

(1.1) {How childish, but I don't think it is Narcis. He is definitely annoying, but he has too much pride to expose his dark history now.)

*(>u1) {Why don't we go meet him and tease him about it after class?)

(1~1) {Lisa, that's not very kind of you.)

*(1w1) {Oh Sarcy, you know I'm kidding!)

(=.=) .:(You're joking about it now, but I know you'll actually do it.)

*(1w1) {Hehehe... so.. are you going to do anything about the rumors? We should have a strategic meeting with Narcis to blackma--ask him to support you. He owes you that much.)

(1^1) {I don't particularly care about what they say about me, but such rumors are no laughing matter. They would damage the reputation of my family and the SARC, not to mention, future opportunities.)

~~~~~☆~~~~~

(lv l)P {Narcis, have you heard?)

(l ^ l) {Heard what?)

(lo l)P {Your ex is in a pinch. Are you going to help her?)

(l ^ l)? {Which ex? I had so many.)

(l o l)P {Your last ex. Her name was um..(>.<)P Darcey? Maybe Sisi?)

(l o l) {Oh. Sarcy?)

(>o<)P {Yeah, that's it!)

(l o l) {Sarcy... She's not really my ex... It's complicated.)

(lO l)P! {Wow, really!? Now I'm reeeeally interested! Tell me! Tell me!)

;(ln l)(lo l)P!!!

(ln l) {I kind of don't want to when your face- ugh - is so close. She's probably coming later anyways.)

(ln l) ...social distancing... (lw l)P

(lO l)P {Oh! She mad? She mad?)

(l vl) {No, not really. She'll put her skills to use. You'll see.)

(l. l)P? {You sound really proud. Is she a prodigious hacker, a rich young lady with a powerful background, or... Q(=- =)P Are you two actually going out!?)

|||(l Al) {We were only a "couple" for five seconds: three seconds of her countdown and two seconds of my interjection before she dumped me. I only delayed the breakup for 2 seconds. If you count that as "going out", then sure.)

(>O<)P {Haha, so she really did leave you scarred like the rumors lol.)

;(l ol) {The rumors are somewhat true, except that in reality I was in the wrong -- and who's Elaine!? (> A<) None of my exes are named Elaine! (l ^l)? Huh? Is there something on my face?)

(=. =)P {So you remember all your exes? Should I praise you for your stupidly high IQ that remembers all the names of your 300+ ex-girlfriends?)

(l 0l)!!! {Don't misunderstand! I just know that because I got deeply involved in their lives and then had to revisit and reconcile with them in my senior year of high school as per the instructions of the mighty SARC volunteer, Sarcy.)

(lO l)P {Woah, so she's like your mentor, dude? I really want to meet her and kind of not at the same time. Does she look scary?)

(,,,l .l,,,) {...She looks cute, but yeah... scary.) (T ^T)

|||(>A<)P {She won't have me reconcile with my ex right?)

(-n -)~(- n-) {Not necessarily. Only if the best treatment for the victim is to reconcile with the repentant . It usually doesn't happen though.)

Sarcy and Lisa walked to the cafeteria building to meet up with Narcis and his new friend. Narcis introduces his new friend who is an international student from Japan. His parents seemed to have name him after a vegetable. His family name is Saikara. It was rather unusual for Japanese names, but it has been that way for several generations.

(1.1) { Hello. )

*(1v1) { Hey! )

(lwl)P { Hi! )

;(l v l) { H-hi! )

*(^o^) { Soo... those ru- )

(^v^) { Hello. My name is Sarcy. I don't think we have met before. Are you Narcis' new friend? )

(lv l )P { Hello. (She seems rather nice unlike the girl with the flower. I almost thought the one with the flower was Sarcy because she looks cute but is actually mean.) My name is Taro Saikara. Family name is said after my own name, right? I am an international student from Japan. ) (^v^)P

*(1v1) { Did your parents name you after a vegetable? )

(l~ l)P { They wouldn't tell me, so I don't really know. Why does my brother get a more normal name? ) |||(-n -)P

(l ~ l) { Maybe because he is, and you're just weird. )

(>~<*)P { But he isn't normal! He is basically a genius at sports, academics, and life in general! He is so popular with girls, adults, elders, kids, and animals. Is he a prince or a fairytale princess?! )

(-_-) .:( Saikara Taro. Hmm... seems like I almost understood its meaning, but it would seem too cruel to name any child that. )

(1v1)* { What are you thinking about, Sarcy? )

(1.1) { Hmmm... Taro, what is your brother's name? )

(lwl)P { Hiro. his middle name is Iku. Why do you ask? )

(1.1) .:( As I thought! But that's just too cruel. (=.=) )

(1.1) { Oh nothing really. I just wanted to know how normal your brother's name was. )

(l~ l) .:( Looks like she's hiding something, but it might be better to avoid prying. Though, I will ask her later. )

Q(lwl )P { So anyways... what is your relationship with Narcis? )

~~~~~☆~~~~~☆~~~~~☆~~~~~

Sideshow:

*(1w1) { Taro, what's your relationship to Narcis? )

(>v<)P { Best bros of course! )

(lo l) { How are we best bros? We just met in class today! )

(= .=) .:( Side Character. What kind of name is that? )

(l ~l) (1 -1) (lw l)P?

Sarcy casts a pitying gaze towards the oblivious Taro while Narcis looks upon that with not-so-hidden jealousy.
