Pay Attention to Me
New year at Summit Academy
Hey guys, it’s Hani Nim, an amateur novel and WEBTOON writer.
Let me tell you something about this chat story.
In the role names you will probably find 4 main leads (2 FLs and 2MLs), that’s cuz till the end you wouldn’t know who would end up with whom hehe!
Isn’t that exciting haha!! 😝
Number of luxury cars pulling up at the front of this massive school and number of students getting off to attend their new year in school
A Rolls-Royce stops at the front of the school entrance and a snow-white skinned girl gets out of it
Her skin is spotless and is smooth as jade, her eyes greyish black, lips thick and round with the corners slightly lifted up. And her ebony hair dancing with the wind.
She looks so angelic and intimidating at the same time
Once the driver leaves she lit up a cigarette and went to the back of the school instead of her classroom
This was none other than Audrey Park, the unmatched beauty and the ruthlessness in school. She is half Korean and half Russian
She is the daughter of the owner of the largest make-up up and skincare brand in the world, Cuda Beauty
Unlike many other schools Summit Academy is known for its luxury and premium facilities and infrastructure
Every part of the school is made with careful consideration and thorough detailing
Students school fees thus is ten folds more than those of ordinary schools
Which is why only children from elite families in Korea and other countries come to Summit
However, in order to “equality” few years ago they decided to accept the top performing students from ordinary schools through their scholarship campaign
Every year the first ranking student out of all the top performing students in the schools of South Korea is accepted on a full scholarship at Summit
Thus it wasn’t an easy thing for anyone unwealthy to step on the Summit academy grounds
Student chattering, some talking about their make up, some talking about their new cars and some talking about their extravagant trips overseas during their summer break
The door opened wide when a girl crashed on it and fell on to the ground
Kang Yuri
*gasp* Wait isn’t that….
Choi Sulli
*sigh* not this as soon as we start the new year
Kang Yuri
Poor Eun-ji, when will she leave her alone?
Kang Yuri
I know she is a scholarship student and is poor as shit but this is too much, don’t you think?
Choi Sulli
Too much? It’s never too much for the princess
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
Au… audr…ey
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
Wha..t did I … do? *she is lying butt on the floor, with one hand holding the injured elbow on the other hand*
Audrey Park (FL)
*indifferent with a lollipop on her hand* what did you do? First of all, should I even have a reason to push and pull you low lives around?
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
Please… Audrey I am ….begging you, don’t be like this…
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
Tell me if you want me to do anything? I will do it, just please don’t act like this….
Kang Yuri
Oh that’s right I totally forgot, they used to be pretty close two years ago but from last year don’t know what possessed Audrey, she suddenly started bullying just Eun-ji and more ruthlessly at that.
Choi Sulli
Hmm… well we are just spectators of what’s happening outside we never know what happened between closed doors
Audrey Park (FL)
*with a sarcastic smirk towards eun-ji* You two-faced rat, don’t try to act like you feel sorry for me! I don’t need it, stop interfering with things I do if you want to live in this school peacefully
Audrey Park (FL)
*bends down and grabs the fistful of Eun-ji’s hair and moves closer to a ear*
Audrey Park (FL)
Stop trying to act so innocent and weak, you and I, we both know who you really are under that facade *whispers in Eun-ji’s ear*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*a shiver runs from her ear to every corner of her body*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*stutter* I…. ugh…
A voice comes from the classroom door
Eric Kim (ML)
What is happening here? *indifferent voice*
Everyone’s attention moved from Audrey and Eunji to this new face and voice walking from the classroom doorway toward the fight
Kang Yuri
*stunned by his look and unfamiliarity * Who…. Is that?
Choi Sulli
*mouth wide open as if there is an angel descending* I don’t know….. but sure is candy for the eye…. *drawling*
Audrey Park (FL)
*turning to the new voice in anger she freezes*
*unknowingly her hand that was tightly holding Eun-ji’s softens and let go of the hair* *still looking up at this new comer who is now in front of them*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*the new comer has also got her attention*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*but soon eun-ji stands up, dusting off the dust on her clothes*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
Then without giving a second glance to the new comer, she gives the hand to Audrey to support her to get up*
Audrey Park (FL)
Breaking the eye contact with the new comer, eyes move to the hands stretched out in front of her*
Audrey Park (FL)
*smirks* another act of your fake kindness?
Audrey Park (FL)
Keep it yourself *slaps eun-ji’s hand away and stand on her own*
Kim young (Teacher)
Ok kids! Go back to your seats
Kim young (Teacher)
Eric, you come up here child
Kang Yuri
Eric? Is he American? *murmur*
Choi Sulli
He looks abit Korean too, maybe a mixed breed hehe! Even better! SO HOT!
Kang Yuri
He is mine! *murmur scream*
Choi Sulli
Keep dreaming! Look! *points at Audrey who is still staring at Eric as if she is in shock*
Choi Sulli
Guess he has got the eyes of our princess
Kang Yuri
*fake crying* Noooo I wanted him 😭
Choi Sulli
Can’t anymore baby, hehe, princess doesn’t like sharing
Kim young (Teacher)
Quiet everyone! This is Eric Kim, the new transfer student. He has come from America so he doesn’t know much of Korea, please take good care of him.
The teacher points Eric to one of the two empty desks at the back and asks him to go take a seat
Audrey Park (FL)
*Audrey turns back to slightly glance at him to only catch him staring back at her with anything but a smile *
The new transfer student
Age: 17 years old
Heritage: Half-Korean-American
Born in: Texas
Son of the largest Hotel group in the world, Kim Group
Eric Kim, the rich and handsome new transfer student at Summit Academy
Eric Kim (ML)
Want to drill me with that stare? *indifferent white no emotion on the face*
Audrey Park (FL)
*freeze* *quickly turns around
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*slightly peeks a glance at Audrey who is now turning to the board with ears are red as a ripped strawberry*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*The stares a glance at the person who caused her ears to turn bloodshot colour*
Eric Kim (ML)
*feeling someone is looking at him he shifts his gaze from the frozen princess to the innocent flower glancing between the two*
Eric Kim (ML)
Hi~~~ *mouths a murmur while giving her a small smile and a wave*
Kim Eun-Ji (FL)
*caught off guard * *quickly turns back front and then steals another glance at Audrey who is now watching her with a frown*
Audrey Park (FL)
*thinking to herself* What a talented actress you are, trying to act all innocent to win a man, pathetic and disgusting.
Grace Augustus
*after politely chewing a pice of the scotch fillet, Grace looks up to Audrey, while wiping her mouth gracefully to make sure there’s no food stain left*

Age: 42
Country of origin: Russia
Owner: of the world famous makeup/ skincare brand
Ex-wife:of Park Woobin, the current owner the world popular clothing group
Personality: Strict to her children, time is gold, more of a business woman than a mother
Grace Augustus
So, I heard there is a new transfer student at Summit?
Audrey Park (FL)
*Thinking to herself* It’s been over a week since my first year in high school started and this is the first she asked me about my school and event that was not about me but someone else
Audrey Park (FL)
* Thinking to herself * She probably only heard about the transfer student today from the principal who gives every update of the school to her and I am sure she knows that Eric is from a rich family too. If not there is no way my mother who wouldn’t spare a glance at just anybody would be asking about him.
Audrey Park (FL)
What a caring a mother? *murmurs to herself with a sarcastic smirk*
Grace Augustus
*acting like she could care less of what her elder daughter just murmured, she continued*
So?
Audrey Park (FL)
*sigh* he is Eric Kim, he is in my class
Grace Augustus
Get closer to him
Grace Augustus
His father is the owner of one of the largest hotel groups in the world especially in Korea, Japan and America
Audrey Park (FL)
*rubbing her eyes as if she is tired of her mom’s behaviour* Mom stop this. First you wanted me to be friends with Kenzo in middle school cuz he was the son of owner of the largest jewellery brand and now you want me to be friends with Eric Kim cuz he another rich kid?
Grace Augustus
Audrey, mind your tone. *her voice was indifferent unaffected by her daughter’s language and tone, as if she could care less*
Grace Augustus
Has anything bad happened from being friends with these rich heirs, thanks to your friendship with Kenzo I was able to build a good connection with his parent’s and now am a shareholder in their company right?
Grace Augustus
Your mother knows what she is doing, in this business we should have connections and networks with every company we can and especially big firms like those of Kenzo and Eric
Grace Augustus
Also who knows I might be able to marry you off to either Kenzo or Eric in the future
Audrey Park (FL)
Mom you don’t have to keep repeating, I will eventually marry whoever you want. you always have said “there’s is nothing called love, everything is business” right?
Grace Augustus
Oh and I heard you have fallen out of friendship with that poor girl, that’s a good decision you’ve made. There’s nothing good in return other than trouble if you keep hanging out with low lives like that.
Grace Augustus
I am glad you got some senses. I don’t care if you bully or do anything, but do not show anyone you are weak or soft. The moment you show your vulnerability you become an easy target.
Grace Augustus
So you are better off showing your dominance and power over been nice to useless people Audrey
Grace Augustus
*she now shifts to the little girl silently sitting chewing on her steak on the opposite side of Audrey*
Grace Augustus
Is the steak good, Lisa? *gives a soft smile*
Lisa Park
*nods slowly without lifting her head u pro look at her mother*
Grace Augustus
That’s good~ You are still young but you should start to follow your sister, be a dominant and a powerful girl who stand over the other kids in school okay, Lisa?
Grace Augustus
Both you girls, never show you are weak or soft to other even if you are
Grace Augustus
For women in the business field, it’s not easy to survive by being soft and emotional
Lisa Park
Yes mom *silently mouths*
Grace Augustus
Good *she goes back to enjoying her steak*
Lisa Park
*glances at Audrey*
Audrey Park (FL)
*winks at Lisa, her sister, and gives her a smile*
Audrey Park (FL)
*mocking their mother she silently mouths to Lisa to cheer her up* “Be dominant and powerful bla bla bla
Kenzo
Summit Academy
Classroom 11-1
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Yooooooo fellas!! Your boy is back!
Kang Yuri
Oh my!! It’s Kenzo! He is back!! *excited and blushing*
Choi Sulli
*Waving her hand with a calm and welcoming smile* Welcome back Kenzo! How was your trip to Japan?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Wasn’t the most interesting cuz of my dad dragging me to all his business meetings *gives a awkward chuckle*
Kang Yuri
It’s not easy being the son of a large jewellery brand hey? Business follows you everywhere lol! *laughs*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*showing a fake crying look*
Choi Sulli
Guess I am lucky to be having lawyers as my parents I guess then haha
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
For sure!
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Oh btw where is my girl?
Kang Yuri
Audrey? Probably playing with her toy somewhere
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Eun-ji? *as if he is used to it*
Won young
*enters the classroom* *surprised by Kenzo’s arrival* Oh Kenzo, you are back? Looking for Audrey?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Hey Won young~ Yeah, you saw her?
Won young
Yeah, I saw her going towards the old storage area this morning
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Thank you Won young! *beaming in excitement he speeds away*
Audrey Park (FL)
*smoking an expensive cigarette* *exhales*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Ha.. ha… *stopping at the storage room he is trying catch a breath from all that running to get here*
Audrey Park (FL)
*Without the slightest bit of startle by the unannounced guest who is trying to even his breath, she inhale and exhale another blow of her cigarette, then drops it on the ground and steps on it*
Audrey Park (FL)
*calmly glancing at Kenzo who is now straight and looking at her like a dog wagging its tail and looking at its owner*
Audrey Park (FL)
When did you get back?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*displaying a sad chibi pout* Hey come on, is that the first thing you ask when you see me after 2 whole months?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Can you be more excited! 😭
Audrey Park (FL)
*A slight kind smile draws on her lips and she stands facing Kenzo with her arms wide open*
Audrey Park (FL)
Come here
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*Without second thought he rushes into Audrey’s embrace* I missed you!
Audrey Park (FL)
Haha you are talking like we are a couple *with a low chuckle*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
We are still friends! Friends can miss each other too you know?!
Audrey Park (FL)
Okay okay my bad hehe
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Also, we are not just friends right *breaking the hug he looks at Audrey with a soft smile*
Audrey Park (FL)
what are we then? *giving a puzzled look*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*moving closer to Audrey’s ear he whispers* Friend with benefits
Audrey Park (FL)
*Startled by the close proximity and the low whisper she pushes Kenzo away from her*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*as if this behaviour is something he is used to, he steps closer to Audrey again*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*his hands touching Audrey’s cheeks*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
We’ve been that way since last year, baby *he softly mumbles while starring into Audrey’s eyes*
Audrey Park (FL)
Kenzo… we became that with your need and my condition, remember? Also don’t call me baby! *indifferent*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
I know. I wanted us to be partners but you didn’t want commitment or strings, you didn’t want to lose our friendship, so we ended up being this, friends with benefits *Kenzo nods*
Audrey Park (FL)
Her eyes then caught a tall dark blonde hair guy walking towards them and his attention was on his phone*
Audrey Park (FL)
*Audrey froze seeing the person is none other Eric Kim, the new transfer student, her….. new crush*
Eric Kim (ML)
*As if sensing someone is looking at him his attention moved from his phone screen to the two people few meters ahead of him*
Eric Kim (ML)
*one was looking at him like she was frozen, only her eyes was visible cuz the tall boy standing in front of her*
Eric Kim (ML)
*thinking to himself* is that her boyfriend?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*seeing that Audrey is starring at something/someone behind him, he turns around*
Kenzo’s and Eric’s eyes meet
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*Turning back to Audrey, he saw her ears were pink*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*don’t know if it was cuz she was shy from someone spotting us so close together or …… something ….else*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*pushing these thoughts away from his for now, he turned back to the new kid*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Hey dude! Who are you? I haven’t seen you in school before
Eric Kim (ML)
*staring indifferently*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
You don’t talk? Mute? *acting like he is confused*
Eric Kim (ML)
Your new transfer student I am afraid *indifferent*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Woah this bro got some cold air I see haha
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Well which family are you from?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Or are you also a scholarship student? *lifting an eyebrow with a smirk*
Audrey Park (FL)
*snapping out from her daze, she steps next to Kenzo* This Eric Kim, son of the owner of Kim Hotel group
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*surprised* What?! THE Kim Group?
Audrey Park (FL)
*smiles* *rubbing Kenzo’s hair for his over surprised look* Is there any other Kim group you know?
Eric Kim (ML)
*Eyes shifting from Kenzo to Audrey, but there is no warmth or softness in them*
Audrey Park (FL)
*Audrey was caught off guard* You have something to tell me?
Eric Kim (ML)
Stop bullying Eun-ji
Audrey Park (FL)
*Audrey was lost for words, suddenly she felt angry and weak, as if someone just crushed her to the ground*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*seeing that Audrey is not retorting back he steps in* Woah woah bro hold it right there! Just because you are the son of some rich bastard doesn’t give you the right to talk to the princess like that! You are just a new transfer student in here.
Audrey Park (FL)
*Getting back her composure* Who is Eun-ji TO you? Why are you talking FOR her?
Eric Kim (ML)
That doesn’t matter, if you keep going, I will have to intervene
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Are you a p*ssy? Getting involved in girl matters? *smirks in anger*
Eric Kim (ML)
Bullying is not a girl’s matter and protecting someone from a ruthless bully is not considered being a p*ssy like you call it. Grow up, both of you.
*saying that indifferently, he walks away*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
You bastard! *shouts in anger*
Audrey Park (FL)
stop it, don’t worry about. If you keep shouting you are only gonna make a fool of yourself.
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Why did you let him talk to you like that?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
It’s only been few weeks since he has transferred to Summit and he is already this cocky, if we just shut up and listen to him we will might as well be his dogs
Audrey Park (FL)
Kenzo, you just got back to school, can you not get in trouble please? For me?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
…. I guess
Audrey Park (FL)
Good. And also just cuz he tells me not to bully Eun-ji do you think I wouldn’t?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*ignoring that rhetorical questions he asks* Audrey….. are you true to yourself?
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Are you try to yourself about what you are doing, if yes I am totally fine with it….. *says softly and concerningly *
Audrey Park (FL)
It doesn’t matter, regardless of it right or wrong, good or bad, or happy or sad. I just should be strong and everyone below me
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
*knowing that if he says anything more she will be more closed off, he decided to just pat on her head*
Yamamoto Kenzo (ML)
Woah why is the vibe so dark all of a sudden, let’s go to the canteen, lunch is on me today * putting his over Audrey’s shoulder, he take her to the cafeteria*
