Awwww...There are no reviews. =( Is my story weird? But it is okay, I would post this anyway.
Chapter 1- If I Were A Boy
There are so many things that I want to do if I were a boy. If I were a boy, whenever I feel stinky and wet with sweat all over my body, I can just take off my shirt and feel the cool breeze on my skin. If I were a boy, I would climb the highest tree in the nearest park without people staring at me as if I came from the outer space. If I were a boy, I would not have to bother my brother by asking him to accompany me whenever I plan to go out alone during the midnight.
Best of all, if I were a boy, I would get to play football.
"Zheng is the best! Zheng beats the rest! Zheng is the man!"
I looked behind at the fanatic cheerleaders, who were just jumping energetically behind me, in disdain. Even though I was in the Cheerleading Club, I never felt motivated to join in with their cheering. I was so eager in joining the Soccer Society, but my mom was so against it. In order to cheer her up, I signed up for this pathetic cheerleading club. I sighed.
My eyes were gazing sorrowfully at the ground in front of me. Out of a sudden, a ball was rolling towards me. My heart slightly leaped, a mixture of apprehension and excitement filling my chest.
"It's your ball! Come on, kick it!"
I stood up and was about to lift up my foot. Before my foot could touch the golden ball, someone quickly kicked the ball away. As a result, my right foot ended up kicking the empty air, and I ended up looking stupid. I became blank.
"Sorry, baby!" Zheng smirked and winked at me. Somehow, it caused the cheerleaders to go gaga at his so-called 'sexy smirk'.
"Ni si wang ba dan…" I glared back at him, who was already going to kick my ball to the net, "You she me liao bu qi!" (You stupid tortoise egg…Big deal!)
As I was going back to the class, a loud scream of pain hit my eardrums. Isn't that Chong Ming's voice?
Without wasting any more seconds, I rushed to where Chong Ming was. I had to push through the crowd that was already gathering there. Chong Ming was on the grass, still squealing in pain, his hands shaking on his crotch. His face looked as miserable as someone who had just gone through hell.
Zheng laughed out loud, "Serves you right for blocking the way! That ought to teach you not to be such a pain in the ass!"
"Zheng! What did you just do to him?" I shouted.
Zheng looked at me as though I had cracked a joke, "I was just playing some football. I didn't know that it's possible to kick two balls at once!"
"You got to look at his face!" One of Zheng's friends added laughingly, "Zheng, now he's your eunuch and you're the emperor!"
"Shut up! If you don't apologize to Ming, I swear I'm going to-"
"Going to what, Mei Mei?" Zheng retorted, "Kick my ass? Who do you think you are? You're just a girl…and when men are talking, girls should listen! Girls like you should stay at home, wait for husbands at bed and-"
Bam!
Zheng fell hard to the ground. I did not realize that I had punched him in the face until I felt the instant pain in my shaking fist. His face went pale, although his bottom lip was red with blood. His dark eyes stared at me, almost with bewilderment. Everyone, including myself, was bewildered as well.
"You call yourself a real man?" I shot back, after getting over the shock, "Don't make me laugh!"
Zheng bitterly bit his bloody lip. He spat out the fresh blood and stood up. Before I knew was coming, Zheng grabbed at my shirt. He dragged me close to him, so close that his nose was just as inch away from mine. I had to admit it. His piercing icy eyes scared me, almost to tears. He breathed out in a creepy whisper, his teeth were grinding hungrily.
"I usually won't hurt girls…But for you, I'll make an exception!"
I closed my eyes, expecting for a strong painful punch, but hoping that it would not leave any blue-and-black marks on my face. I did not want my mother to know that I was in a fight. I had begun to say the first word of my prayer, when it was interrupted with just one single word.
"Enough!"
I opened my eyes to search for the voice owner. It was the Literature professor, Min Guiwen-xien sheng.*
