Graduation Ceremony

'Congratulations to you all for making it through your high school years. I'm extremely privileged to see the fine men and women most of you turned out to be. Many of you will follow in others footsteps to achieve your goals. Some of you will inherit businesses and such from your families. But those of you who have worked hard to create your own path and will continue to make your own paths in the future, I look forward to seeing the successful alumni you will become. For now, I would like to introduce to the pupils someone they may have heard about. The one pupil who is our pride and joy of this years class, Yang Mira. She will be attending HanYang university in September. Let's put our hands together and give her a warm welcome to the stage.'

As she walked onto the stage, she was given a clear view of all of the students. Majority of them were cheering for her, especially those who were freshmen. But the seniors refused to. They simply glared as she was welcomed by everyone else in the school. They never thought she would be the one delivering the speech today. They all thought it would be Kang Sua (Girl number 1). The 'flower' of their year. But anyone with eyes could see that Yang Mira was the real flower. Her long flowing jet black hair sculpted her feminine face. Her features were simply enough to make anyone jealous, especially her piercing mahogany eyes that many could only dream of having. These combined with her well proportioned body and skinny legs were enough to make anyone jealous. Maybe that's why the rich decided to pick on her so much. Because they could never hope to look or even be like her in any way. Because no amount of money or plastic surgery would make them like her.

'Most of you in the younger years won't know who I am or I have only briefly been seen. To those of you in my class, you'll know that I tend to sit at in the right corner next to the window and don't often raise my hand in class. I'm cast aside as a loner by my piers. The same ones that bullied 2 people to death so I don't take what they say about me personally-'.

'Yah, Yang Mira.' There goes Kang Sua. Just as Mira predicted. 'Is it our fault that you were born into a lowly family? Is it our fault that your a hideous beast, a machine that does nothing but study? Huh?! Answer me!'

Mira didn't think that Sua had such a range of vocabulary in her brain, after all, she spent her days making her minions ridicule whoever she wanted them too. Although her vocabulary didn't extend much further, it was easier for Sua and her minions to see that Mira was going to expose them and everyone else that had ever helped them bully her, making them red with anger. Their hands curled into fists and began to shake at the hatred they felt for the girl standing in stage

'Is it my fault that you feel the need to drag people down based on their looks and their background rather than their personality and work ethic?' Mira replied. 'Is it my fault that you decided to bully 2 people to the point where they couldn't take it anymore and killed themselves? I know people like you. You put the blame on everyone else and then expect your families to clean up after your mess because they simply have the money to do so. Too bad your parents aren't here to defend you. To all of the people that have been affected by the individuals in my class in any way, including those in the younger years, I sincerely apologise. I hadn't been able to do anything until now because I needed evidence. As we speak, this evidence is being sent to every police station in Seoul and will be spread over every social media website imaginable. If you wish to see the it, it's all there. There's no point in trying to get your parents to get rid of it either because it won't work.'

'How do we know your didn't just photoshop all the evidence?' 'Yeah! It's not us who was doing all of it, it was you!' Sua's minions finally spoke up. Trying to blame everything on Mira wouldn't work even if they wanted it to. After all, she had her brother backing her and he would never let her take the blame for things she didn't do. She was only trying to make things right. She wanted to help Jimin take revenge, and he wasn't going to stand in the way of her. After all, Jimin was like a little brother to him. So he stepped out on stage. It was like he was bringing a gun into the room. It was silent. No one dared to move. Yang Yang of the YY Group was standing before their very eyes! Not only was he the youngest successful CEO of multiple companies, he was a major contributor to the school so it made sense for him to have been invited, especially when his younger sister was graduating.

'There's no point in trying to frame my sister. Everyone knows what you girls and many others in your year have done. It's been the unspoken truth for many years yet no one spoke out because they didn't have enough resources at their disposal. But I do, and I refuse to let you defame my little sister any long. To make matters worse, you made someone who was like a brother to me, break down before my every eyes because you chose to bully him on the fact that he was considered 'fat'. Also, I know that one of you is trying to make your way into the entertainment industry. There is no place for people like you there. So before you have even tried to audition for the entertainment giants, both of you girls have been blacklisted from every company, big and small.'

The bullies stood there in silence. Their first time meeting the head of the YY Group and they had already offended him so much. It didn't take them long to understand that if Mira was Yang Yang's younger sister, then that would make her the famous Alaïa. Alaïa was an idol who had debuted 4 years ago and had taken the world by storm since then. However, the only things made public about her was that she was the younger sister of Yang Yang and that she was 18 at this point in time. Never did they imagine that Yang Mira was actually her.

'If you have nothing to say then you girls may leave. Even though you have brought disgrace upon your peers I must still congratulate them on graduating from high school and moving on to university. Even if you don't have a future, they still do.'

That was enough to make the girls run like lightning out of the main hall.

'Congratulations to all of you. For those of you who wish to have work experience at any of my companies, feel free to contact me via the headteacher. However, there is only space for 10 students per year per company. If you aren't ready to commit to at least 2 months worth of work experience, don't waste my time. I wish you all the best of luck in the future. Thank you and congratulations once again to the class of 2019.'
