I had spent just one week in my new school, things were different, everything was new. I was still trying to adapt. It was a boarding school, the boys and girls stayed in different dormitories. Like one of the girls told me, one has to have a boyfriend in the senior class else the person will be in "big soup". But I didn't want to be in a relationship till I leave secondary school. The second week turned out to be torture for me. The guys were all around me, asking me out and all.
One day I was walking to the class and one senior called me, he asked me to be his girlfriend and I refused. Before I would say the reason why I got a hot slap. I didn't understand. It looked like being in a relationship was a by-force thing.
Just then another guy walked to the scene and scared the first one away. I was so grateful. He told me that he'd help me get away from the other guys if I went out with him on valentine's day. He said it'll be nothing harmful, just a meal and back home.
