Love is a Surprise--Chapter 8


A Young Judge

Eventually,both Vincent and Iris visited each others family when they do group study.Iris is always welcomed by the Tanaka family as they accept people of different culture and ethnicity.Unfortunately,Mrs.Lee do not really favor Vincent as he is a Japanese,not a Korean.Isaac is always the one who tries very hard to persuade his mum not to have prejudice with Vincent as he really is a kind young man,who cares to sacrifice his life to save Iris.

Forgetting to mention that Iris is a petite Korean girl with cute slit eyes,which does not appeal to local guys who prefer girls with big and beautiful eyes.She is also a very shy girl who does not really approach any students in class as she would not mind being alone.That is why she ends up being the only solo in the class before Vincent's arrival.

However,one day,the class went cranky when they knew that Vincent came down with a flu and was absent for the day.The girls started to paste some nasty post-it messages on Iris's back that says:Ugly bitch wanted a hot cake,f*** me,slap me,wanted to be cool but can't,almost blind eyes and other disgusting message.The guys even stuff chewing gum on her chair with the hope of letting her sit and have trouble getting up afterward.

Needless to say,the worried-about-Vincent Iris just fall into their mean trap.She got all the weird stares at the canteen,got slapped and sat down without looking at her chair.She really knew nothing of their prank until the teacher say they are free to go home.She felt that she could not really move from her seat.She forced herself to stand and realize that her skirt is stuck with chewing gum.Yikes!

The whole class burst into laughter and embarrassed by all the nonsense,Iris break down and run all the way back home.After reaching home,Vincent ring her up.Upon hearing her muffled voice over the other end,he started to ask what happen.Naturally,she pour out whatever that is bothering her that morning which angered Vincent.He told her not to worry as he will talk to the monitor about it.

The very next day,Vincent and Iris came to school earlier than usual.They met Ju Cee,the class monitor and complain to her what had happened.However,she just smiled cynically,saying that Iris deserve it.

Vincent was mad at the rude response...As the students fill the class that day,he begin to shout at the class,saying:'What have gotten into you people??Just because you do not like someone,you all ganged up and set up a very bad joke on my friend!That is the most cowardice thing I have ever heard in history.If you don't like her,just say so,never do that!Thank god this is a modern time,or else all of you will be long beheaded in the olden days!!Can't you guys be nicer to your classmate?Like her or not,she is still part of the class...You all deprived her of the right to be a normal student in class...Wake up!!!'

After saying all these,he called Iris over and they went out of class.She thanked him profusely saying:'Hey,Vince...thanks for standing up for me.This is the first time someone actually helped me when I get bullied in class.Normally,all these events hurt me and I just let them self-resolve which makes me feel less sad as time passes.Doomo,Vincent-kun...'

Vincent clutched her tightly to his chest and say:'It doesn't matter,no human being deserves to be humiliated until she is at the brink of tears.I am just upholding justice for people who were mistreated.Most importantly,they must understand that you are the same as them,nothing more and nothing less.'

As they walked back to class.Some of the students apologized to her as they felt guilty about that day's incident.Iris felt that she is in 7th heaven as she has a hero that is constantly standing by her.She felt that it is way better for her to have one true friend than to have a world of fair-weather friends.To be continued...
