Tanya's heart beat continually as she walked to school. This was the day she decided to come clean before her crush. She was going to confess her feelings to him and damn the consequences.
She wondered though, why Derek didn't give her the time of day. She was the brightest student in her class and people complimented her beauty whenever she walked on the road.
Her classmates were the only ones who looked down on her, probably because she was on scholarship and was the only student who still carried an iPhone four but how was that any of her fault?
She didn't chose to be poor. She was literally over the moon when her cousin got a new phone and gave her the one she was currently using and even though it was an outdated model, she cherished it so much.
Even Elaine, her closest friend since fifth grade had given up on their friendship, she had claimed that Tanya was an embarrassment to her and had given her the silent treatment.
After trying so hard to make her come around without success, Tanya had given up as well and now, she was all by herself.
But she decided that none of these was going to stop her today. She was going to confess her feelings to Derek and if she could get him to even smile at her for a second, she would be content for the rest of her life.
When she got to her class, Tanya noticed that Sheila's minions were hovering around her seat. She wasn't given much time to figure out their scheme as her maths teacher came in to the class.
She quickly took her seat, while occasionally stealing glances at Derek. "He is so dreamy," she thought longingly to herself. She didn't realize that Sheila, Derek's girlfriend wasn't in class because she was so focused on Derek.
He suddenly stood up, took permission from the teacher and headed for the convenience. Tanya took that as her cue and raised her hand to be excused as well.
When she tried to stand up however, she realized that her skirt had been glued to her seat. She looked over at one of Sheila's minions sitting at the extreme and the girl smiled evilly at her.
Tanya then understood that they had placed glue on her seat and she had fallen into their trap without realizing. The girl took out her phone and secretly started taking a video of Tanya.
Tanya forced herself to get up and attracted the attention of everyone when her skirt made a tearing sound. she opened her eyes in surprise when she touched her butt and realized that a large piece of her skirt had been torn off.
The whole class erupted in laughter and rejoiced at her expense. She ran out of the class while using her bag to cover her butt as she felt her tears forcing their way out of her eyes.
Today was supposed to be a happy day for her but once again, she had made a fool of herself. As she ran to the toilet, she heard a boy call out her name. She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him.
