minho's pov

Let me introduce myself to you.Im choi minho, 3rd son to the choi family group. Stuck in a world of elites and fake politeness and competition.
thats right competition, its everywhere and in everything.
you can't even take a step without being challenged to prove your worth and status.

I shake my head as i approach the school gate.Its no longer a routine its a lifestyle.
You would think going to the top school in all of korea and having the biggest company name and stocks would please a child growing up wealthy. but it does the exact opposite.
You see, i'm judged based how well i do, my test score and grades, Im nothing but a bunch of numbers and stats in peoples eyes.
How well I am mannered and obey. I’m only remember as an aristocrat's kid.
It's been this way since i can remember, Always walk head up, silent and stoned-face, acted properly I have a reputation to uphold…only to speak when spoken too,
I got whatever i wanted as long as i listened and obeyed.
All materialistic things….

Minhoo-opppa!!!
oh my gosh its minho!
minho-ahhh!!

I pass by a crowd of fangirls.gosh, they give me such headaches, I walk by without eye contact, ice-cold and flawless. *imaginary hair flip* >.<<br>
I get to my locker and punch it open.
well isn't someone a ray of sunshine this morning.
I inwardly smile, but careful not to let it show outwardly.
Wae, taemin.? I ask raising an eyebrow.theres only a handful of people that I can tolerate, but Taemin is my bestfriend.
anni, just stating the obvious that your emotionless…. like usual hyung.
anyways class will start soon, better hurry before we're both late, the other hyungs will meet us there.
arresso.

Here's to another day of useless information forced upon us that we later forget.
I tuck my necklace safely into my shirt.
I close my locker, headphones in, one hand in my pocket I begin to walk to class.

I walk into class and it's exactly the same in the hall, screams fill the room.

AHH minho!!
Minho come sit next to me!!
Wah, you're so handsome!

how come all the girls, fan over him like his some idol?
I dont get it…
actually i'm a little jealous

honestly that annoys the hell out of me, i can't see why some people may like it.
I walk to the back of the classroom to my seat, only to find it occupied.
Move, you're in my seat.
the student looks up, i think his name is Jong-soo, he transferred over last year but his family owns branches of business across the country.
*sigh* father would be scolding me to befriend him since our families do business together often.
Mian-ah i didn't know you were going to be here… Jong-soo replied.
*sigh* “take a breath” anni, gwaenchanh-a.
he moves and i take my seat.
picky-picky are we with our seats, taemin teases me
whatever, shut-up.

the room is in an uproar…..again…..i thought they would stop after taemin sat down but they didn't.
I look up, to see the other boys walk in.Onew, Jonghyun, and Key make their way over and sit quietly.

These are the only 4 people I can tolerate. Onew-hyung, jonghyun-hyung, key-hyung and taemin.
Jonghyun and key are brothers i've known for a while, but their family also does business with mine. I guess were still friends because our lives are so similar.
my hand subconsciously reaches to touch where my necklace rests on my chests
All of us, we all come from elite wealthy families, only difference onew-hyung and jonghyun-hyung are first born male, key and taemin are 2nd born male while I am the 3rd.
But I hold the most respect in here, because of my name and the history I carry.

Key-hyung are you alright? Taemin asks
Key-hyung turns around to give a slight smile and nod.
I make eye contact and one looks says it all, we know he isn't fine but no one points it out. Everyone has a history, and we have ours, we don't talk about it, but we all know.
gwaenchanh-a, it's nothing were not use too... Jonghyun-hyung jumps in.

Key, what happen to you, you have a long purple bruise on your cheek.

the 5 of us freeze.
You have got to be kidding me... Someone actually brave enough to walk over to try to talk to us, but then to something like that out... We don't even speak about it, so who does this person think they are. I grip on to the desk till my knuckles turn white.
if stares could kill, he would already be 6 feet under.

Dont you have somewhere to be Sung-ga? Onew spats bitterly at him
anni, he replies confidently.

You've got some nerve being here, I look boredly up at him.

Just being a "caring" classmate. He drags out caring.

This is kid is the noisiest and cockiest on our school floor.
But before I got to lay a finger on him, key-hyung already had him by the collar.

Mind your own damn f*ckin business. Live your life and ill live mine. Its best for you to leave.
Key-hyung shoves him back.
And if I dont? He smirks, how much I would love to wipe it off his face.

I dont think you realize my family own the police force taemin shots him down.
Or how fast our family company can make yours go bankrupt onew and jonghyun in syncly comments.

Pshh, thats all why you are friends right? To use your family's power over other people.
Oh wait sorry minho I guess doesn't include you.

I lose it, before taemin and jonghyun has time to catch me, I already have Sung-ga’s collar in my hands and I throw a punch.
My knuckle collide with his jaw, and it snaps
Sung-ga stumps back a couple of paces.

To show him how scary-cold I can be: bring up my family and money or power and ill show you what the 3rd son of the choi group will do.
Ill wipe you and your families name from the face of the earth with the snap of my fingers.

Fear and worry fills his eyes and he bows before walking away.

Angry has filled my body, the professor walks in as I make my way out.

Minho-ah, you cant ju--
Ill do as I please and shut the door.

Lunch time ^~^
Hyung where were you?
Taemin's eyes fill with worry as I sit down with my food.
The rooftop I blunty reply.
lies, we went there and you weren't onew replies without looking up at me.
I let out a sigh, I was in the back, in the woods behind the school. At my thinking spot. They all nod and we don't say anything more.

3 hours later after being in 2 classes of a blunt waste the bell released us.

to my surprise omma and appa are home when I get there.

One step into the house and
*SMACK*
Appa retraces his hand as I lift my eyes to meet his face.
i heard you skipped class today, that's not how a choi family member does things.
If you wanted to make this family happy and proud, you'll do well not to step out of line

To prove your worth and ensure your future, you'll have to be better than just being best in your class and As in your grade or being class president. Your older brothers did that, you'll have to surpass them.
But after your act today, don't disappoint me again.
Adachi?
Arresso appa.

I walk to my room, fist clench, nerves shot but with my head at its clearest.
I will, I will surpass my brothers, I will surpass your expectations, I will be better then you expect.
