Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

In the next moment, the man felt a sharp pain coming from his wrist. It felt almost as though the bones in his wrist were being fractured. He began to wail in agony, “Ow! It hurts! Buddy, I’m only trying to comfort you! Why are you being so hostile?”

Callum snarled coldly, “Don’t touch me.”

Once he liberated his hand from Callum’s grip, the man flicked his wrists and gritted his teeth in pain. “Miss, your friend has such a strange personality. Who would want to be his friend? That would require great patience. Forget about finding a girlfriend! He has such good looks, but his personality is terrible. Those who love him probably have masochistic tendencies!”

Callum turned to look at Elspeth and angrily demanded, “Why don’t you just tell them that I’m your boyfriend?”

Elspeth looked at the injuries covering his handsome face and the crystal-clear teardrops that seemed to hang from the eyelashes beneath his large European-style double eyelids… She couldn’t help feeling slightly distressed at the sight.

Handsome men sure are good at manipulating your emotions.

She cleared her throat. “This is my boyfriend. I am that person who has masochistic tendencies.”

While he wasn’t abusive, whenever he acted like a boyfriend who was easily wronged, it definitely made her seem like a terrible girlfriend.

The three men loitering around were so shocked that their jaws practically fell to the floor. Afterward, they did not dare to tease her again. If they continued to tease her, their hands would probably be broken by Callum. Their hands were the most essential tools of their livelihood, after all.

Kenneth was clearly not on the same wavelength as the others. So, when he saw that they were almost done talking, he quickly said, “Let’s head to the training room.”

Then, he saw the three men beside him shooting desperate looks at him. He couldn’t help feeling confused. “What’s wrong? Do you have a cramp in your eyes?”

The three felt themselves screaming inwardly as they collectively groaned at him being a dumb*ss.

“Ken, isn’t the training room off-limits to people who are not part of the club? So, why did you bring your sister there?”

Only then did he realize that he had forgotten to introduce them to Elspeth. He smiled apologetically. “This is Birdy, Susy, and Carrot of the FX Club.”

After that, he turned to the other three. “This is my younger sister. She will be replacing Wolf in the team competition.”

“Her?”

Birdy could hardly control the corners of his mouth from twitching. “Ken, are you joking? Wolf plays the role of the shooter. How can you give such an important central position to any random person?”
