Rich Boy and Poor Girl

7

My phone buzzing all the morning, disturbing my peaceful sleep. I force myself to wake up and found out my mom has set all my data to my new phone.

I stretch my body and sit on the bed, scanning the whole room but not finding my old phone. I walk out and found it on the dustbin.

"Mom, what are you doing to my phone ?" I ask but kinda raise my phone. I don't know how to act, angry or what ?

"It has die. The LCD has break and it can't be turn on. So i move all your data to your new iphone," my mom says calmly. Never know how this phone means for me.

I just remember i told her all the password, including my email password and all my social media password and she remember it all.

I pace back to my room and check my new phone. I set my password before open my w******p that has 100 notifications.

There are notifications from group class, BEST FRIENDS group, Daniel, Cassandra, Daniel ex. I open another social media and lot of strangers messaging me.

Oh this is feel like to be popular ? This is not fun at all.

Daniel

Hi

Why you're not replying my message ?

Hello

Beverly

Hi, just wake up

I open another, the class group has nothing to do but BESTFRIENDS

Maddie

Morgan

Melissa

Emma

Morgan

Yes, we are girl with Brain. We're here for you if you need help with asshole in school

Maddie

Why you are calling all girl asshole ?

Morgan

Beverly

Lol guys ! I'm so grateful to have you guys as my friends.

FYI, my mom install this on my phone.

She is better than me at technology *omg*

Yup, my LINE messenger is full of stranger chatting me. I do know some of them by their profile picture

Emma

Can i go to your house ?

Beverly

Sure, i just move. I have sent you my new address.

I open Cassandra chat

Cassandra

You like Daniel right ? You said that words because you fall in love with him right ?

Come on don't lie. Every girl love him, worship him. I know you're one of them

Beverly

I'm sorry, but he keep chasing me

I know it is a bad answer, but forget it let's move on to that cheerleader chat. Oh, her name is Nicola

Nicola

So you're the back of our break up ? You're dating him ? Wow good.

Beverly

Pardon ?

He even forget my name !

Wow, i can't accept this kind of accusation and all the girls that chat me on another application asking me about DANIEL.

He has lots of FANS and some of them begging me to introduce them to Daniel. I'm telling them i'm not his manager.

I open my i********: and many people following me. I follow back my groups and Daniel and Cassandra and many more.

I check the tagging and it full of my picture leave Daniel car in school. The paparazzi is crazy.

Some of them also his crazy fans that begging me for follow back. No, i can't sorry. Lately i found out he is an i********: model. Posting OOTD with his branded stuff.

I put my phone on my nightstand and shower, before Emma come. Now, i really regret my choice. I better stayed at home yesterday.

~*~

"Emma this is crazy," I say show my phone to her. She look as shock as me. She shakes her heads and exhale.

"This happens to every girl that seen with Daniel," she says and take a sip of hot tea that i make.

"Do you want KFC or Mcd ?" I ask, due to my singing stomach that make sad songs about how cruel i am to it.

"Mcd, just ordered rice with chicken and drink. Don't forget Mcflurry," She says with big smiles on her face.

I open the online transportation that serve buying and delivering foods. I get discount, who don't wanna get special price ?

The food arrive in 30 minutes, both me and Emma sprint down and pay the driver. Go back to my apartment and eat it directly.

"Maybe i must move to another classes," I spat while eating my ice cream.

"Wait don't. If Daniel loves you, no matter what you do he will keep chasing you," She says, her mouth is full of ice cream and i laugh at her.

"What do you think he loves me ? It just 3 days. 3 f*****g days i enroll in this school. How could love form in 3 days?" I say and lean myself on the sofa.

"You must believe love at the first sight Beverly," She says trickily and blink her eyes at me.

She help me clean the mess and we go to my room. Both of us jump to my bed and sit there.

"Is that even real ? Love at the first sight ?" I ask her in serious tone.

"That's what happen between me and Tommy," She answers easily.

"Wait wait..." I say. "You're dating Tommy ?"

"Yes and that's the reason why he move behind me too," She says excitedly.

"And you only tell me ?" I ask her.

"Yes, because we want to keep it secret and i'm waiting for you with Daniel," She says, but later cover her mouth with hand. "Oops."

"Yup, and Cassie will haunting me every single day," I say.

"She can't do anything if Daniel choose you, really. She act this way because she know he broke up with Nicola," She explain. "I know her because i was in her gang but decided to leave it cause i know, Popularity isn't anything plus, my dad angry because i couldn't keep my marks stable."

"Oh, and you still popular though," I say and laugh.

"Yup, more popular after i leave the gang," she says and shakes her head. "It is crazy but this is the best choice i've ever made."

Daniel names pop up on my screen for the hundred times that day. Emma fad fingers click it and it automatically open the chat.

"I hate you," i say and she smiles.

Daniel

Hey ! What are you doing ?

How are you, are you fine ?

Have you eaten yet ?

Beverly

Well, it's none of your business

I have eat

Daniel

Good, you can say to me if you need something

Come to school with me on next Monday ?

Beverly

No thanks Daniel, you give enough problem to me. I better walk, it is healthier for me.

Daniel

Why ? Something bothering you ?

Emma is enjoying our text but i decide to only read his last text without replying. Half of myself can't handle it all and i want my normal life back.

"Omg, he really really likes you Beverly! Come on, open your heart for him," Emma says kinda begging.

"Hell no," I spat and lock my phone.

"Okay, I appreciate your choice but both of you will be a cute couple," She says excitedly and i gaze at her. "Umm, okay, i stop."

She start commenting about my apartment, about how nice is it and how nice Dave Lee is.

We fall into deep conversation until the time her dad come and pick her up.

"Bye Beverly ! See you next week," she says and wave.

"Bye," i say and go to my room.

My phone is full of Nicola and Cassandra text. The last things i reply to both of them is told them to date him, just date him. Don't include me in their personal life.

I fall asleep and dream of my dad, i hate him. I hate how he left my mom and me. I have told my mom everything and she also believe, Mr. Winston is my half brother.

I wake up at 6 p.m. and realize my mom hasn't home. I read her text, she is in her office. It has small party there.

I inhale and go to Cafe across my apartment. I sit alone with Menu on my hands, my eyes busy scanning food on the menu.

A guy come and sit on my place. I scowl and stare at him, coldly. He take off his hoodie and it is Daniel.

Fuck.

"Hey Bev," he say with his soft tone, smirk on his face and his sharp brown eyes looking straight to me. "Nice place by the way."
