Rebirth:The Badass Young Lady

I am Yuan Heng.

I am 10 years old and I study in Ying Yue school. I am in grade 4.

My family background isn't good nor bad. Only a middle class family with my father, mother and myself.

We were a happy family until my father, Yuan Bo and my mother fought about her cheating behind my father's back.

They then decided to divorce without thinking how it might impact me, who was only 6 years old.

....

The two then fought about who will keep me and raise me up as if I was only an object which could be passed onto anyone, without it's own will.

They went to court and then my father won against my mother. It was then decided that I will be raised by my father, as if my life was other's to decide.

I clung onto my mother's neck as I cried. Telling her not to leave me alone and just stay with me together or take me with her but she didn't show a remorseful or sorrowful face but only looked at me with an irritated face.

She pushed me away from her and said in an unloving voice.

"You little shit! Because of you, I had to go through all this! I should have just never let you be born in this world!" She shouted as she then tried to grab my neck but then my father came and shoved her away as he blocked me from her.

"What are you trying to do?! Even if we have divorced doesn't mean you can do such thing to your own son! You cannot blame him for something you did! Wasn't it you who seduced me first then concieved a baby in the one night stand and blackmailed me to marry you!? You just reaped what you sowed! Don't go on blaming my son for it!"

My father then picked me up, who was still shocked at how my mother tried to kill me and even behaved so cold to me. I couldn't understand why she did that.

My father patted my head lightly and said.

" Heng'er, even if your mother has left you, you sill have me with you. Don't worry about anything else. I won't let her hurt you again."

I couldn't understand what he wanted to say and only cried as I called out for my mother who had already left.

....

Since then, my whole life changed.

I used to be more cheerful and friendly before but after that incident, I became more and more quiet as the kids at school kept on bullying me one way or another.

They would call me 'a child of a whore' and beat me whenever I tried to stop them from calling me that.

Since then till now, it's the same. Nothing has changed. I am still bullied, made to do what I don't want to do and also beaten like a punching bag whenever those bullies liked.

But deep inside, something dark had been growing in me since before. It was resting inside me as if it was being held down by my own sanity.

Then one day..I met her.

....

"Hey, Yuan Heng. Didn't I tell you to bring me 5000 yuan today? Where is it? Take it out!" A boy said as he laughed at me mockingly. There were also 5 more boys behind him who were laughing along.

"I-I couldn't bring it today...P-please give me more time. I-I don't have that much money a-and my father only gives me 500 yuan in a week. I-I'm sorry..please let me go." I apologised to them as I tried to explain it but then the boys stopped laughing and started beating me.

" Didn't I tell you to bring it today?! You dare to not listen to me! Go to hell!" The boys kicked and punched me as I tried to defend myself but to no avail.

"Hey! What are you doing to that boy?! Stop hitting him!" A voice then shouted at them from behind.

I looked at the figure of a small girl who shouted in a loud voice. But...she was trembling in fear unlike her brave words.

Seeing her like this, something rang on my head as my heart raced and I couldn't take my eyes off of her.

Looking at the small girl trying to save me even when she felt scared while I, who wasn't even brave enough to fight back made me hate myself for being so weak to even have her come and fight for me.

The boys looked at the girl then shouted back at her.

"What will you do if we didn't stop, huh? You gonna fight with us? Hahaha" They laughed and then continued beating me.

The girl looked troubled as she didn't know what she should say then a teacher came and saw this. He then punished the boys and had the girl to take me to the infirmary for treatment.

The girl smiled at me sweetly as she then helped me towards the infirmary.

She told me her name was Xi Mei Mei. She was also in grade 4 but in a different class.

Her sweet voice and her cute smiling face made me want to keep on looking at her. Her presence soothed my soul which seemed to be consumed in only negativity.

But something else grew inside my heart and that was the feeling of wanting to protect her and becoming stronger to never end up like this again.

Since then, I started to pick myself up and started fighting back against the bullies and focused on my studies. I looked for her whenever I could and she would also speak to me without avoiding like other students.

My father also profited from investing in a company which let their status up a level.

One time, Xi Mei Mei nearly got hurt because of some jealous girls. I found out fast enough or else she might have been harmed and would've had to experience the feeling of being bullied like I did.

I took her away from their without doing anything to the girls right away as I thought she was feeling awful right now and needed me at that time.

But I still took revenge on those girls after she finally got her smile back. I made them 'accidentally' fall off the stairs and break their leg or hand when they were heading back home.

Since then, I had dealt with anyone who tried to harm her no matter who it was. And I also got to know myself better. That I was so madly in love with her that I could do anything.

But I didn't want to hurt her so I kept it bottled up and just acted normal, talking to her, looking at her smile. It was not enough but I still didn't do anything more so as to not scare her.

.....

..

But now, after so many years.

There is someone who always behaves cold to Xi Mei Mei, who always looks down upon her and even hurts her either with words or actions.

It was Gu Xiao Yue who used to be the elder sister of Xi Mei Mei.

Xi Mei Mei would always cry because of her which made my heart wince in pain. I couldn't endure seeing her so sad and helpless so I decided to eradicate the source of her pain and sadness.

To eradicate Gu Xiao Yue.

But someone else came and provoked me by trying to hurt my Mei Mei. She got hurt because of me but it was all that bitch's fault!

Feng Jiao, she had to die before her friend!

...

...

But the real reason behind Xi Mei Mei trying to save him was....

"Hey Xi Mei Mei, look over there. Someone is getting beaten up. Haha. Let's play a game. If you can save that boy from those guys then I will not have you to run errands for me anymore but only have you as one of ny friends." A girl said that as she looked like she was having fun.

Xi Mei Mei looked at the girl with anger hidden inside her eyes but she still smiled and did as she told her to do.

She wasn't the centre of attraction in the class as in the present before. Because she was from a low class family and many didn't like poor people.

So she would cling onto the rich family's daughters to have others talk to her more. So that she wouldn't get ignored like those other losers.

But the price for it was to act like a servant for those rich girls.

She didn't like it but had to do it to keep her likeable and pitiful facade on.

She trembled in fear when she saw the guys but she still stopped them.

"Hey! What are you doing to that boy?! Stop hitting him!"

They didn't listen to her but instead taunted back. Luckily a teacher came at the right time and saved them.

She was then told to take the boy to the infirmary but she felt disgusted to touch him because he was dirty due to the beating he just got.

She still did it anyway because the teacher told her to do so and she had to pretend to be a good girl. She smiled at the boy kindly and spoke to him in a friendly way.

Since then, that boy always looked for her. This made her feel like she had someone who looked up at her.

This feeling made her feel more superior so she let him follow her around like a tail so as to keep her pride.

Once, she almost got beaten up by the rich girls who she always clung to but then the boy saved her and since then, she didn't have to deal with those annoying people. She knew that he must have done something to them.

This made her feel like she was adored and worshipped inside someone's heart which made her feel even more highly of herself.

Since then, nothing has changed. But only the number of boys who admired and loved her increased.
