"You have to use completing-the-square formula for this question. And you did this wrong"

Henry glared at Irene. 'How could YOU be teaching me? You ugly skank!'

Irene ignored the death-glare and continue babbling about more Math stuff. "Do you understand, Mr. Henry?" she asked.

Slightly startled, Henry quickly answer, "Of course! This is so easy made me bored to death."

"Haihh….so you basically don't understand a thing I said, right?"

"What? Are saying that I'm lying? Ha! Just watch this!", Henry immediately solved the question in front of him. Putting his pen down, he looked at Irene's face.

'How could you breath with that hair covering your face? Look at those soot-like thing on your face? Eh? Aren't you actually having a pretty skin? What with those lips? That looks so kissable. Wait, what? No, I did not just thought that!'

BAMM

The sound made him snapped out of his train of thought. He looked at Irene's hand on the desk. 'She is quite strong to actually slam her hand. Is she going to scold me next? I want to see you try!', Henry smirked.

Looking at the smug face, Irene temper start to rise once again. 'This guy has the gut to daydream while being this stupid. Look at that insincere face of his. Urgh! Can I slap this guy!'

She quickly calm herself. Not wanting to fall for his trap. "You did it all wrong. Do it again. Use this formula next time, this is the basic. Make sure you master it by today and….."

Henry's cold face resurfaced. 'So she won't complied? Fine. I will make you surrender to me despite your ugly face'.

He picked up his pen and start answering the questions again using the formula Irene gave to him. After he finished, Irene checked his answers.

Smiling, she exclaimed, "You did it!"

Her white teeth can be seen. Her face was dazzling.

Dumbstruck, Henry froze. He cannot brain this. 'H-how could she smile like that.'

Irene, noticing Henry's stare, she knocked her fist gently on his head. "What are you looking at? You can't be proud for answering just this questions. Be sure to get it right next time too."

Henry abruptly stand and close in to Irene. Irene also stand and immediately stepped backward each step Henry made toward her. "W-wh-what? Do you want to fight?? J-just because I knocked your head? Ha? W-well, come on then! I am n-not afra…"

Irene's back hit the wall and Henry's hand pushed her fringe to the back. His face closing in, trying to get a closer look at her face. Irene, who was talking just now, was quiet and froze because of the action. She was scared to make a noise. 'What if this guy is a psycho. Oh what have I done!'

"You…Who are you?"

"W-what?"

"I asked who are you?"

"What do y-you mean? I am me. I am I-Irene, your Math tutor?"

"What do you do for a living? Who is your parents? Where do you live? H-how.. How can you be this beau….."

The conversation was interrupted by the door which was opened by Henry's mother, Madam Eliza. Shocked at the situation, Madam Eliza rushed to Irene's side and separated them.

"What are you doing to this poor lady, young man?!" his mother asked sternly. No matter how spoil Henry was, he can't be laying hand on anyone he want. That will be against the law.

Henry quickly composed himself and started to explain, "No, mother. I did not do indecent thing to this…thing. She's u-ugly. Not my type!"

Henry stormed out of the room leaving his mother and Irene who was still processing what just happened.

"Are you sure you're alright, my dear?" asked Madam Eliza softly.

Irene just nodded and gave a serene smile. She don't understand the situation. 'What happened? Why did he asked for my background? I'm ugly, I'm not his taste, so why did he cornered me?'

Feeling hopeless, Madam Eliza let Irene went home early. She looked so shaken. 'What happened? This boy must have insulted her. Just because someone is ugly used you in the past does not mean you have to treat every other person who is not pretty that harsh.'

Sighed, Madam Eliza went back to her room looking for her husband to report the incident. Just because one girl, his son changed. She hoped that Irene can change Henry back to he used to be. The cheerful and kind person that treated everyone equally.
