The Rise of the Oppressed Girl
*BGT Chapter 1

"Please, don't break the paper about me. I beg!"

"What's? You beg me just now?"

The ridiculing question immediately made the whole class laugh. They laughed at the request of the poor girl in the slightly shabby clothes without any pity. Especially the guilt.

"Chika, please. Don't break the paper about me. Why do you have so much heart for me, Chika? I've never bothered you this long, have I?" Cherry spoke in a clear tone.

This isn't the first time that Chika, the number one high-profile girl at this school is bothering Cherry. I don't know what makes him so hate that poor girl who is obviously not comparable to him in class, even in this school.

High School Hope Nation. The city's most famous high school. A gathering place for smart students, rich children, high-ranking officials children, and all the best students in the city.

Chika is the son of the richest man in town. Hence, she was able to attend an elite school and become the prima donna of the school because of the beauty she had. As for Cherry, this girl is not rich, does not have a high position. She's just a poor girl who's lucky enough.

Cherry was able to get into this school because of her cleverness. He won a scholarship during his selection time in high school. Hence, he could be here despite not having any standing or wealth that he could be proud of.

But unfortunately, because it has no position, also wealth, Cherry must accept various kinds of insults, scorn, even made into toys by the naughty students of the children of the rich at this school.

Once, Cherry was used as a betting material by the school prince. It was all because of the idea of Chika.

For some reason, Chika hated Cherry. He often hurts Cherry at every opportunity. In fact, if there is no chance, then Chika will create that opportunity in order to hurt Cherry.

Like, when he was on his birthday that time. He invited Cherry by invitation. Then, humiliate Cherry in such a way as possible. Finally, Cherry came home with a very hurt feeling.

And, Chika accidentally creates a game with a big bet on the birthday of the school prince named Aditya.

"If I could make Cherry a couple at Aditya's birthday party, then I'd give you a hundred million in return."

"Oh, what an amazing reward." One of Aditya's friends spoke with sparkling eyes.

Well, even though they're all rich kids. But a hundred million just to make a poor girl as a couple, that was quite an incredible reward. Toys that are challenging enough for them.

"Can I come?" ask Aditya who seems interested.

Of course that question made Chika round her eyes. How not? He was very surprised by the question. Because Aditya is his current girlfriend. After all, where willing he let Aditya who holds a school prince degree close to school garbage like Cherry.

"No. I won't let you come, Aditya."

"You're my boyfriend. After all, you are a prince. The main character in this show. Where you might participate. Not good dong." Chika gave an excuse with all her might.

But baby, that reason is not Aditya listen. Because right now, his feelings were already challenged to try. Because betting is a hobby of the rich.

"If I manage to date Cherry, then I'll buy you a diamond ring, honey." Aditya spoke in a calm tone.

The reward cannot be denied by Chika. Because it was his dream all along. She was given a ring by the man she loved. And now, that dream has come true. How could he avoid.

One friend of Chika also said. "Leave it, Chik. This guy's just betting. We'll be satisfied to see the Cherry trash at the end of the show. So, don't hesitate to let your prince come."

After considering for a while, finally, Chika let Aditya tag along.

"alright. I'll let you come along. But remember, don't fuck around. It's just a bet. Don't think that's not it."

Chika's words made Aditya laugh.

"You think I'm blind, Chika? I can still see clearly. And, this mind is still sane. I can still tell which one is trash with diamonds. So, no need to worry."

Instantly, Aditya's speech made Chika smile widely. Aditya's expression makes Chika feel, if the garbage Aditya says it is Cherry. The diamond is itself.

Two weeks after the bet was made, Aditya's birthday party finally arrived. Cherry initially does not want to come, because remembering what has happened on Chika's birthday that ended in sadness makes her feel deterred.

But, the closeness between him and Aditya makes Cherry can not refuse. With a heart that is still worried, Cherry also chose to come to the party with the best clothes she had.

Birthday parties held in bars make them free to act. Initially, Aditya welcomed Cherry warmly. But midway through the show, Aditya accidentally spills a drink onto Cherry's head. It makes everyone laugh. They were very entertained by the spectacle.

Cherry was treated unfairly by her friends. After Aditya's treatment, Chika also came with her drinking glass as well. As Aditya did, Chika did the same. Shed a drink into Cherry's head until Cherry is soaked.

Then, Chika loudly said that all this was just their game. Aditya's proximity to Cherry is just a charade. They do this only because of bets.

"What's? A hundred million stake? Is that not excessive?" One of the classmates spoke in a derogatory tone.

"Yes. I don't think it's comparable to a girl like Cherry who would never refuse to be friends with anyone. That price is too high for Cherry." Another friend replied.

That night, Cherry was humiliated again. He was again looked down upon by everyone. A wounded heart, now more wounds. But, he can't do anything. Can only accept the treatment with a spacious chest even though the heart is never willing.
