Happy New Year!! 2021 GMT+8

"Yana look, he's so handsome. I wonder if he is single," Nica hummed, tugging me along her inside the building to catch a glimpse of yhe new student teacher. Rolling my eyes, I let it wander to the mysterious guy who walked towards Elina's room.

Motherfucker. It was the same guy from the other night with Elina. Feeling my fists turning white, I push through the crowd and shove him by the shoulders again, going to my seat, deciding last minute to attend her class. Nica as usual apologized for my behavior. Elina rolled her eyes, "glad to see you in class Miss Hearst." Ignoring her, she went back looking and smiling at the guy, conversing and slapping his arm. Obviously flirting. Look at me damnit! You're supposed to smile only at me.

"Tell me what's going on," Nica sighed. I promised to tell her later after class and she accepted.

"You think they're dating?" one of my classmate asked. Are you fucking serious? One more comment and I swear I'm going to flip this table and screw anyone else talking about someone dating my Elina.

"Of course not, they don't even look together," Nica sided me. Thanks.

"Yeah," Heather agreed with Nica.

"You okay Yana?" Elizabeth asked me, rubbing my arm. My face still frowning at Elina and the guy. I nod at her and she smiled.

"I'll get you water," Elizabeth stood up and walked towards the exit. "Eli," I called and that caused for the both of them to look my way. "Zabeth, beer would be nice" I added.

"No drinking in my class Miss Hearst," she scolded, like I care. Rolling my eyes, I rest my head on the desk and dreaded for the day to be over, thinking what to do with the guy.

That reminded me of my negotiation with Heather. She'd do anything huh. Then I need for that guy to go bye bye. I gave Heather the -we need talk- look and she nodded. Nica frowned, obviously jealous and I gave her the look as well.

This will be interesting.

"What, No way!" Nica almost shouted. I shushed her up.

"Heather?" I fold my arms, waiting for her to accept my plan.

"Can we do something else? Please," she suggested, tapping her stomach for me to see only. I sighed and asked for their suggestion instead. My plan was supposed to be a one time no more teaching ever for him again since it required Heather to pose as a victim of rape. Who'd the admin listen to? A Hearst or an ordinary man. Well I say my plan was brilliant.

"We can just make his teaching here hell. I can ask him to do something about it," Heather suggested since the guy was assisting Heather's baby boo.

Shrugging, "fine."

"Are you actually jealous? " Heather asked me teasingly. Oh it's because he's taking my Elina's attention from me.

"Pfft no, his face just irritates me," I lie and Nica laughed.

"Anything funny Veronica du Ponte?" I question. She shake her head, grinning.

"She's totally jealous," Nica whispered to Heather and agreed.

Pointing towards a new vehicle in the parking lot I ask, "is that his car?"

Nica nodded.

"Time to get to work ladies," I cracked my knuckles and started commencing our mission. This kind of job needs me to do the dirty work. Heather stood there, carrying the tools and I wiggled my fingers choosing which I would use to make art on the car.
