Black Bellied Beauty

While Alex busied himself inside the cafeteria, Abbie was sighing inside her classroom. As Britney predicted the rumor was starting to spread at a fast pace. When the first subject of the day ended half the girls in the class were already aware of her failed confession.

While not all girls liked to gossip, there were some who did. Abbie's get along well with her classmates. Even Britney who was the leader of the Red Alert girls had a good relationship with her. The only problem with the pretty girl was that she liked to gossip and got carried away.

Abbie decided to head to the washroom while the teacher was still not inside the classroom. Along the way the familiar gazes of the girls from the different classes locked unto her as she walked past their classrooms.

When she reached the washroom it was empty. The chubby girl finished her business without delay and was currently washing her hands when she heard a chuckle behind her back. When she turned around to take a look, a beautiful lady with long blonde hair and blue eyes was looking at her in disdain.

Abbie recognized the girl. It was the second most popular girl in the university, Hannah Evans. The chubby girl had heard rumors that this blondie has a huge crush on Adam, A.K.A the Prince of the University.

"You really have thick skin," Hannah said with mockery. Her voice sounded soft and sweet, but for Abbie it felt like someone was rubbing a pair of styrofoam blocks near her ears. "Is it because of the fat stored in your body? How impressive."

Abbie narrowed her eyes and looked at the lady in front of her. Like Britney, Hannah was not alone. There were two lackeys by her side who were looking at Abbie in disdain.

She knew that if he messed with this blondie, endless trouble would follow her, so she decided to ignore her and exited the washroom. To her credit, Hannah didn't stop her but said a few words which made Abbie want to slap her.

"It would be best if you look closely in the mirror," Hannah said in a teasing tone. "Girls like you would remain single for the rest of your life. Don't worry, as long as you have money anything is possible. Plastic surgery is a booming industry in Korea right now. You might want to check it out."

It took all of Abbie's willpower to exit the washroom. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would have slapped the blondie silly. Abbie knew that if she did that, the girl's face might get disfigured and she would be the one visiting Korea instead of her.

Hannah watched Abbie storm away with a smirk on her face. Anyone who set their sights on Adam should know their place.

When Abbie returned to the classroom, their teacher was still not around. It seemed that the latter had an emergency and was forced to go back home. The class president, Emma, advised everyone to remain in their seats. They were free to do whatever they wanted, but they shouldn't be too noisy so that the other classes wouldn't be affected.

Since she had nothing else to do, Abbie took out her I-Foam and opened the GGS App. The first thing she did was look at the map. A green and red dot appeared on the map's interface. The green dot represented Abbie, while the red represented Alex.

The map has a zoom in function (Just like google maps) so Abbie was able to pinpoint Alex's exact location. According to the map, Alex was still inside the cafeteria of the girl's dormitory. Abbie felt her heart soften when she remembered the cute boy who always smiled at her. Half of her irritation melted away because of that smile.

'Hmp! Who said I will remain single for the rest of my life? I have Alex now.' Abbie thought. 'He's much better than that good-looking twat Adam!'

Abbie felt her blood boil when she remembered the face of the boy that rejected her. It was fine that he rejected her, but to brag about it? The nerve! If only she wasn't afraid to get into trouble, Abbie would definitely break that boy's leg the next time they met.

She could only blame herself for falling in love with superficial things. You shouldn't really judge people by their looks. Like Hannah, Adam was also black bellied.

'The two of you fit each other,' Abbie thought. 'Both of you are a**holes!'

A few hours passed as Alex continued to help inside the cafeteria. Aunt Zizi and the other aunties busied themselves because it was just an hour away before lunch time. Aside from the girl's living in their dormitory, there were other students who ordered food from their cafeteria on a daily basis.

Alex only helped to chop the meat and vegetables. He didn't dare to get in the way of the Auntie's cooking and merely watched from the side. The young boy was paying close attention to how the food was being cooked and memorized the process inside his head.

Aunt Zizi smiled at Alex's behavior.

'If only I had a grandson like Alex, then it would be good,' Aunt Zizi thought as she stirred the curry in the pot. Her children were still studying and it would still be a few years before they got married and started their own family.

"Alex, sweetheart, can you help me pack the lunches for the students?" Aunt Zizi asked the boy who was by her side. "If you help me, I'll pack an extra serving for Abbie as well."

"Really?" Alex asked with an innocent look on his face. His eyes were shining in excitement at the thought of bringing lunch to his Master.

"Yes," Aunt Zizi said in affirmation. "If you like, you can accompany me when I deliver the lunch boxes to the university. You can personally hand it to Abbie."

"Un! Thank you, Aunt Zizi!" Alex smiled and it made the older woman's heart flutter. The other aunties chuckled from the side as they watched the cute boy help them prepare the lunch boxes for the students.

Little did they know that Alex's appearance inside the university would be the start of a series of events that would affect, not only Abbie's class, but the whole university.
