I'm Inlove with a Werewolf

THREE: NEW FRIEND

"Good morning gorgeous!" I greeted myself when I woke up. Then I stretched first.

I immediately got up and went to the front of my full length mirror. I turned around a few times and then looked at myself from head to toe.

"Why do I look so beautiful even when I just woke up?" I am still talking to myself.

I looked at the wall clock. I woke up so early today. Two hours left before my class. I don't know, I feel excited to go to university now. Maybe to see him? Shall I deny it?

I stayed up late last night arguing with myself. But at the end, I have accepted to myself that I am really affected by that man.

Maybe I have a crush on him, is that it?

But of course, I still can't accept that he doesn't feel the same way about me. It's so insulting!

That's why I won't agree to be one sided. We should be the same.

So, I have to prepare a lot today. That's why I'm sending my good personal stylist to my house now, I want a new look, I know I'm already beautiful, but I want to be even more beautiful. So I took a shower first.

Bettie arrived later. I showed the picture of the new hairstyle that I want. He followed. I can't even stop myself from taking a nap.

When he was done with the hair, he applied makeup to me as well.

"Do you have an event today, madam?" Bettie asked while fixing me. He's gay by the way.

"Yes. I'm just going to attract someone," I answered directly in a serious voice.

"Is it true, madam? That's a miracle. But it seems like you've only recently taken an interest in a man."

I used to not want us to talk about boys. I cringe when he tells stories about his boyfriends.

"That's why I won't allow myself to be the only one interested in him. He should also be interested in me," I answered.

"You're so beautiful, madam. You don't need a make over. I'm sure you'll get that with just one look."

I suddenly remembered how Ferzus looked at me yesterday. It's annoying.

"He's different. I want to attract him because he doesn't have any interest in me."

Bettie stopped what she was doing. "Are you serious, madam?" he asked in disbelief. "You look like a goddess but she doesn't like you? What is he an alien?"

"Maybe a vampire or a werewolf!" I answered disgustedly. "Just make sure that he will notice me with my new look, okay?" I added.

"Of course, madam!"

"Just make my make up light. Just a natural look. It's like, I just woke up like this."

"Copy madam!"

After more than an hour Bettie also finished my make up.

I smiled when I saw my appearance in the mirror.

I turned to Bettie. "I wasn't really wrong to take you as my stylish."

He did the look I wanted. I feel like I've become more beautiful. Curly hair with medium bangs suit me well. Add the natural look of my make up. Not obviously an hour made

"Thank you madam. You are so beautiful," he stared at me in praise.

"That might turn you into a man," I joked.

"I already have a boyfriend, madam," he replied. We laughed in return.

"I will deposit the payment on your bank account," I took my cellphone and sent him the payment through online transaction.

His eyes widened when he saw how much I sent. "Oh my god. Are you serious, madam? This is too much."

"You deserve that. You never let me down every time I asked you to do something," I said.

"I'm sure she will be attracted to you."

"It should be. I won't let it be."

Then I sent Bettie away because I was going to university. I dressed first and then left.

As I expected, all the students, especially the boys, had their attention when I arrived at the university.

I can see the admiration in their eyes. That's the kind of reaction I want to see from Ferzus.

"Hell, no! Hera, you look drop dead gorgeous!" Who else? It's Oliver.

He was blocking my way. "I've been gorgeous for a long time," I answered listlessly.

"I know. That's why I'm so lucky when you become my girlfriend."

I grimaced. "Me? I'm going to be your girlfriend? Keep dreaming, Oliver."

Before I was startled by what he would say next. I left him.

Just as I turned around, I saw Madisson on the side looking at me evilly. But of course, I just ignored it.

I went straight to our classroom where Triana was waiting for me. I told her to wait for me there.

"Wow, you look so beautiful, Hera!" Triana's reaction when I arrived at the classroom.

I pulled my hair out. “Is it okay?” I asked her.

"Excessive. You look perfect. You look like a goddess.” She was still staring at me with shining eyes.

I smiled. "Thank you."

Until my other classmates started coming. I received only compliments from them, which was expected. Mrs. Lopez arrived later, my insecure professor.

Ma'am started to give lessons. My eyes are on him, but my mind is wandering.

Where could Ferzus be? What section is he in? He's fourth year so I'm sure we're in the same building.

I prepared my look today but I haven't seen him yet. But the ones I don't want to see, they are the ones who show up.

I stopped thinking when a man entered our classroom. He's not familiar so I'm sure he's not our classmate.

"Are you the transferee?" ma'am asked him.

The man nodded his head and smiled. That's why my female classmates seem to be tickled.

"Yes, ma'am," he answered. "I am Callen Orceus," he introduced himself.

I noticed Triana next to me who was seriously staring at the boy in the front. It looks like she might even like him.

"Okay, Mr. Orceus. You can sit." Ma'am pointed to the empty seat beside me.

Triana and I were sitting at the end. This is what I chose, so that when I feel sleepy I can sleep.

"Wait ma'am. I am with someone."

"There is one more transferee?" Ma'am checked his class record. “I see. Where is Mr. Lin—”

"Good morning ma'am." Ma'am didn't finish what she was going to say because Ferzus suddenly came in.

You read it right, it's Ferzus. He is now in front of me. Our eyes still met but he was the first to avoid it.

I felt annoyed. The reaction of his eyes yesterday? It's still the same today. It's like he's still looking at useless things!

"You're Mr. Ferzus Lincoln?"

He nodded his head. "Yes, ma'am."

"Okay, you can sit down now."

Our entire classroom was filled with screaming when they started walking.

I looked around. There were no empty seats except for the three seats next to me.

They went straight to our place.

I wish he would sit next to me, I wish he would sit next to—

"Can I sit here?" Ferzus asked in a serious voice.

Chances seem to favor me now.

I smiled widely. "Sure." Then he sat next to me.

I wanted to celebrate in my mind, but I had to hold back. I don't want to be too obvious.

I looked in front. All my classmates are looking at us. Many of them are jealous but there are also people who look down on me. I'm sure this is going to be another issue.

The class has already started. Ma'am Lopez has already discus in front.

I think this is the chance to start my plan.

First, I took hand cream from my bag and put it on my hand. Then I gently faced Ferzus. He was seriously listening in front.

I took a deep breath first. "I am Yzielle Hera Rodeo. I am sure you have heard my name somewhere. If you don't ask, I am famous in this university because of my friendliness. So, I would like to meet you formally." I stretched out my hand in front of him.

A few seconds passed, but he didn't seem to hear anything. He just looked at my hand and then turned his gaze back to the front.

"Nice meeting you, Hera. I am Callen. Ferzus' best friend." He's the one who took my hand. "Be patient with my friend. He doesn't know how to socialize," he added.

I forced myself to smile. "It's okay," I replied briefly.

I feel embarrassed. I said so many things but no one answered? I offered my hand but he ignored me? Is he serious?

I tried to calm myself down. I want to scream in anger! He was the only man who did this to me. I made an effort to make myself more beautiful and then I was ignored? This is not possible!

I took a deep breath and then faced Ferzus again.

"I want to apologize about what happened yesterday. I was wrong, I wasn't looking at what I was going through. I am sorry." I even softened my voice.

"I see," he replied without looking at me.

It's like I'm embarrassed again for the second time.

This guy must have been trying to embarrass me.

"Are you rude? You should be looking at the person you're talking to. I'm trying to be nice here, okay? But why do you seem so mean? Who do you think you are?" I refrained from shouting. Ma'am might hear me.

"I am Ferzus." This time, he looks at me with his favorite expression. It's like looking at a useless thing.

"Could you please not look at me like that—"

"Ms. Rodeo!" I didn't finish what I was going to say when ma'am called me.

I closed my eyes before turning to the front. Ma'am Lopez looks at me badly.

"Yes ma'am?" I asked.

"If you're not going to listen, can you just leave? You're disturbing my class!" she yelled.

"I'm listening, ma'am..."

"Stop lying! I looked at you several times. You are not listening! you're not interested, get out. I do not need a student like you in my class!"

Since I have everyone's attention. I'm also very embarrassed. I immediately grabbed my bag and stormed out of the classroom. I even heard Triana calling me, but I didn't look at her.

It was Ferzus fault! His face is too thick to do this to me. Who does he think he is? Because the girls here fantasize about him, will he become like that? Does she know me?

Every time I remember what happened earlier, I want to cry because of so much annoyance. The fact that I made an effort just to get him to notice, I look stupid!

Because of the frustration I'm feeling right now, I didn't realize that I was about to bump into someone.

The things the girl was carrying fell. I helped her to pick up.

"I am sorry. I didn't mean it," I apologized to her.

She smiled in return. "It's okay. It's my fault too, so I'm sorry."

I feel that the annoyance I feel has decreased. I wish the man I bumped into yesterday was this kind, but no! I have already apologized to him, he still has an attitude.

"That's fine." I was about to leave when she held out his hand. "Excuse me?" I asked wonderingly.

She smiled. "My name is Zariah. You are Hera, right?"

I took her hand for a handshake. "Yes. I am Hera."

I won't be surprised that she knows me.

"I'm a transferee, but I've been following you on your social media accounts for a long time. I'm a fan of yours."

She looks genuine and doesn't pretend to be nice. I was also staring at her, she's pretty. I like her smile.

"Thank you," I sincerely replied.

She smiled again but wider, and her eyes were smiling too.

"So, can we be friends?"

Her question surprised me. But since she seemed nice, I nodded. "Sure."

Somehow I'm less annoyed now because of Zariah, but that doesn't mean I'm no longer annoyed with that Ferzus. I'm not done with him yet.

I have canceled my feelings for him. He and Oliver are just the same. They are arrogant!

Zariah offered me to go to the cafeteria. Since our next subject will be later, so I'll just come along.

We were about to leave when I saw Mr. Perez who was looking at us seriously. I smiled but her expression did not change.

Is he mad because I haven't taken the quiz yet? I went to the faculty yesterday as he said, but he was not there. So, maybe that's not my problem anymore.
