Episode 8: Part 1

O.G. City, one of the most developed cities in the Foman Country. Known for being almost like a separate entity.

And so, often neglected by the government causing the rise of crime and gangs in the city.

O.G. High School, here students starting from the first grade to twelfth grade come. The quality of the school was in the top three in the entire city as it was run by the government.

"Ryan, see ya!"

Meti waved her hand then parted away from Ryan and Lisa in front of the school gate. Lisa also did the same and headed in leaving Ryan alone.

"How careless my sisters are. Leaving a cute boy alone in an unknown territory."

Ryan shook his head and sighed. Looking forward, he could see the entire school building.

It was shaped like the letter-L, with three floors on the longer side and two floors on the shorter side.

Behind the school building, there was a huge playground, a wide pool and a court for indoor sports.

As he stepped in the school compound, he could feel many gazes on him. He wondered, was this how girls felt on their first day at school?

High School, Ryan didn't have many good memories about it. And he didn't remember anything about his friends.

But he liked his high school uniform very much. Black trousers for boys and black short skirts for girls, white shirt, black tie and white shoes.

'It's been a week since I got a second chance. This time for sure, I will hold on to every moment.'

Ryan held his school bag and walked towards his classroom which was at the third floor on the longer side of the school building.

Since he was one of the new transfer students, he was getting a lot of looks on him.

Most were from the girls.

"Hey, see him. Damn hot, babe!"

"Look at his back, girl!"

"Do you think he is single?"

Ryan heard all the whispers which were loud as hell, and secretly grinned.

When he reached his classroom, it was half full already. Most seats were occupied by the girls and only the front seats were empty.

'Ohh I hate to sit in first! Fuck!'

Cursed Ryan, he didn't let his expression change and took the seat near the left window on the second row.

He observed the students and found that most of them were friends, they seem to be old students in the school.

Very soon, all the seats were taken and the classroom was full. The bell rang and all the students went outside to attend the assembly.

* * *

The assembly wasn't long and boring since it was the first day of the school.

Coming back to the class, all the students took their respective seats and waited for the teacher to come.

Ryan glanced towards the back rows of the seats and found them to be taken by the girl gangs.

'How do I approach them?'

The plans that he made needed a strong base. First he had to become the top influencer in school.

While still in his thoughts, Ryan noticed that the teacher arrived in the class.

"Okay! Sit down. How was the holiday? Good huh? I see a lot of new faces here."

The male teacher looked at the front rows and smiled with a cheeky expression.

Ryan wanted to smack his face with his fist, just with the ugliness on this guy's face.

'I am a student, Ryan. I am a student. Students don't hit teachers.'

Muttered Ryan in his mind. He focused on the class and found the first period to be very boring.

It was math class after all. On his right side, there was a girl with glasses, and behind him was a boy with long hair.

"Do boys like to keep their hair long? Can they even do that in school?"

Murmured Ryan, he continued to spend his time observing the classroom and the students.

It could be said that observing was his habit after what he had experienced in his life.

"Hello, my name is Nann. What's yours?"

The girl with the glasses, on his right side introduced in a low voice. Ryan shook her hand and replied with his name.

Now that he thought about it, the class teacher didn't let the new students introduce themselves.

'Was this how it went before?'

Ryan frowned, he stared towards the teacher with the corner of his eyes.

'I need to screw him over…'

Suddenly, he was presented with a thought in his mind making his face bloom with a smile.

"This should be enough for the first day. Tomorrow, I will continue this."

Then the teacher left the classroom even before the bell rang. Ryan almost laughed at this, he didn't expect school to be so lousy.

"Which school did you transfer from?"

Nann asked Ryan with a curious face. She had adjusted herself to the left so as to face towards him.

'You are playing with fire, girl.'

Ryan lowered his eyes and looked at Nann from head to toe. She could be said to be decent in looks and body.

"I would love to share."

Smiled Ryan, Nann could already feel flowers bloom in her heart. Ryan was actually very handsome and hot compared to most boys.

Out of ten, Ryan could score a good eight in looks, even nine or ten in many girl's perspectives.

And for Nann, Ryan was a ten out of ten. While the two talked, from the back seats, many girls eyed Ryan.

"What about him?"

Asked the girl sitting in the middle, of the last seats, to the girls around her.

"Mine."

"Shut up bitch! How is he yours? Wanna go huh?"

Two girls glared at each other, ready to fight for Ryan. The others however, remained silent.

"Will see who he belongs to."

The girl in the middle said with a dark smile. Her eyes flashed with a red light, and her intention was not very good.

"Really? He has a daughter and she is four years older than us?"

"Yes, really."

Ryan was excited to find that the math teacher had a daughter and she was just four years older than him.

"How fortunate."

Muttered Ryan. He thanked Nann for her information.

"We make good friends."

Said Ryan with a smile to Nann. It was true, he had said everything without any secret intentions.

"Yes!"

Nann couldn't help but smile wider. Her eyes were sparkling with light, and her mind was full of romantic thoughts.

Even if Ryan knew about her thoughts, he wouldn't care. This was how male and female worked, be it if the genders were swapped.

"Nann, how do I look to you?"

Ryan asked with curiosity. He asked this to his family but received unsatisfactory responses.

"You? How do you look in my eyes?"

"No, I mean how I appear to you. Not talking about my looks."

Ryan waited for Nann to come up with appropriate words and wasn't disappointed by her.

"I-I think you are so much like girls. But I mean in a good way! You are very confident, and charming. I, I think the word tomgirl fits you well."

As she finished, Nann closed her eyes and thought that she would hear some sharp curses or even a slap.

But, nothing of that sort came. Instead, she heard soft laughs from Ryan.

"I am hearing this for the first time, tomgirl. Hehe."

Ryan held his face to hide his laughing face, he really did find it funny.
