Birth of a Beauty

Chapter 7: I felt so helpless..



She got bullied again.. Someone mumbled as if talking to himself.

"Lu San, Dinner is ready..Come down to eat." Lu San's mother, Mo Xia, shouted from the kitchen.

"Ok, mom. I will be right there. "Lu San kept his books back to his bag before heading downstairs.

After dinner, he went back to his room. Laying on his bed, he first set alarm for early morning. Then, he tossed his phone at the bed side and looked at the ceiling.

"Li Seulbi...I am sorry again..I don't know just how many times i will feel guilty for not helping you..Always when i am away,those girls start to bully you and when i am present it would be already late" he gritted his teeth and felt a wave of sadness engulfing his heart.

Then, he continued "Though i like you but i cannot confess to you because i am coward..I am so foolish that i know that you are getting bullied but i cannot do anything. Do you know, Seulbi.. i am the one who used to open the door of the girl's restroom for you when the girls used to lock you up there..though i am boy, i secretly went there to help you..But..I know this is not helping you at all..it can't aid to the pain you are feeling..i feel so helpless i can't protect you the way i want to.."

He paused and raised his right hand. He was wearing a thin silvery bracelet. It was not so shiny because it was too old. He took a closer look at the bracelet and saw LS written at small part of the bracelet. His eyes shone brightly. His lips curved up into smile. The window was open. So, when the chill wind entered the room, it made his hair sway here and there.

His handsome facial features were revealed by the moonlight. His eyes were dark and deep as an ocean. His nose and lips were in perfect shape making him to look more charming.

When he smiled with his perfect shaped lips, he looked unbelieve bly handsome and seductive. Any girl would fall in love with him, if she sees him like this.

Lu San touched the bracelet few more times before keeping his hand down and saying " Xiao Seulbi..Do you remember our old times when we were still young?" Many pictures filled his mind making his heart unusually comfortable and warm. He closed his eyes and fell deep into a beautiful dream.

At Li Seulbi's house,

It was 6:30 am when Seulbi woke up. She woke up late today as she used to wake up at 5:00 am everyday.

She hurriedly made her bed. She freshened up quickly and changed into her school uniform. She put necessary books into her bag and rushed downstairs.

She realized that she hasn't locked her room so, she went upstairs again. After locking the door, she ran downstairs. The running sound was quite loud which made the people downstair feel uneasy. At dining table:

Everybody were present. Even Li Cheng was also there reading newspaper. Tang Fian was serving tea to him. Li Ri and Li Ruan were eating their breakfast. Su Yumi was cutting fruits.

When they heard the rustling and running sound at the stairs, all of them couldn't help but look at eachother in confusion. There was one member missing there who was Li Seulbi. So, everybody knew Li Seulbi was the one making those noises.

Li Ri and Li Ruan wanted to badmouth about it but they stopped, noticing there was their father and grandmother present. Tang Fian frowned a little but didn't say anything.

Li Seulbi finally came inside panting a little due to running before. She greeted everyone and sat beside Su Yumi. Su Yumi gave her fruits which she was cutting before. She also gave her a glass of warm milk with almonds mixed.

Li Seulbi thanked her grandmother. Su Yumi patted Seulbi firmly and smiling brightly.

Li Ri and Li Ruan were speechless.

Looking at the grandmother and granddaughter duo as well as their rain of affections, they felt at unease and frustation. Though they didn't say anything, Tang Fian could sense her children's uneasiness. 'How come this ugly duckling became grandmother's favourite child?! Are we even her grandchildren?! She don't damn care about us but alone this ugly granddaughter of hers..'
