My Bothersome Life Chapter 42

A girl with gradient red hair tangled up with the scythe crawled around her neck had her bright orange eyes widened up in fear .

When the scythe was lightly pressed to her neck, a light streak of crimson blood hurled down leaving a slanted line on her pale skin .

The young girl holding the scythe that was slowly digging into the girl's neck trembling from terror narrowed her dull aqua coloured eyes with a harsh smile, "You know this wouldn't have happened if stayed far away from him . You should have learned to stay unnoticed in your rightful place or else-" .

"This inevitable situation would have been preventable . " She softly whispered while bending down to speak into the other girl's ear .

The girl that was shaking in terror did not do anything wrong . All that she had done was to fulfill her own duties, not knowing that it would attract jealousy from others . A girl who was striving to survive in her ruthless life where only the fittest people was able to live a decent life .

And this girl who was swallowed up in her journey of survival was- me .

Mr . Suzuki led me to a bright classroom with twenty students already sitting in their seats . "This is your math teacher for the next week . " Mr . Suzuki announced to the class while gesturing to me .

"Hello, my name is Rika Shane but you can call me Rika since we're the same age . I hope we'll have a good time together for the next week and I will also be holding extra help sessions for people who need extra help during lunch break starting from tomorrow . " I friendly said .

"Rika do you have a boyfriend?" A student asked .

"Which school in the first district did you come from?" Another student asked .

"Rika when are you free?" Another student asked eagerly .

"Unfortunately, I will not be that free during the duration I will be here . " I replied .

That was all I was going to answer because I wasn't sure if Luke would allow me to say anymore .

Since I finished introducing myself, I exited the classroom and went to another classroom where it would be Luke's and my office for the next week .

I opened the door to see a printer, a bunch of desks, office supplies and more that has all been provided .

Luke was already inside trying to make lesson plans for his class . However, I was relaxed knowing that it would only take about one hour to prepare to teach a class for middle school math .

I started looking over the math workbook to find that the math here was way easier than I thought: Find X & Y .

X + Y = 10

Sigh . I learned this in kindergarten in this world! I flipped through more pages of the workbook to find that everything was extremely easy .

After drafting up a lesson plan for an hour, I finally had free time to do whatever I wanted .

What should I do now?

I went outside the office to find something to do .

"Hey! Rika!"

I looked behind to see one of the students call out my name .

"What are you doing here" I asked as classes did not seem to be finished yet .

"It's break time for five minutes . "

They actually had break time here . How nice~!

"You don't have to look too surprised, I don't know how the school work where you go Rika, but this is common everywhere in the third district . "

Maybe I was sent to a lower ranking school in the third district . Since I knew for sure that higher ranking schools would definitely not have breaks .

Since I didn't know my way around anyways I decided to ask, "Can you give me a tour of the school?"

"Sure!"

The student's face oddly blushed as he guided me through the school .

When we were finally near something that looked like the cafeteria, I saw something very familiar from the past life .

It was one of the convenient things ever invented in mankind for pleasure: a vending machine .

It was full of chips, jelly, drinks and the list went on .

"Rika, do you not have this in the first district? Your eyes are oddly sparkling in front of the ordinary vending machine . "

"Nope, there's no such thing in the first district . Plus there's no breaks in class, and each class lasts for more than three hours . " I replied with a pout .

The student looked more than just shocked . Maybe it was that unbelievable to him .

Welcome to my life .
