The rich girl
She didnt know she eas rich
Everyone at school thought Elina was just… normal.
She wore the same simple clothes almost every day.
No brands, no flashy shoes, no expensive phone—just
a quiet girl who sat in the back of the class and
kept to herself. Some people even assumed her family
struggled with money. Elina never corrected them.
It was easier that way.
"Why don’t you ever come to the mall with us?"
one girl asked her one afternoon. Elina shrugged.
"Not really my thing."
In reality, she had already been to places they only saw
online—private beaches, luxury hotels, cities across the
world. But she never talked about it.
Not once. After school, instead of getting picked up in a
fancy car, she walked two streets away… and then
slipped quietly into a black SUV waiting behind a row of
trees.
"Good afternoon, Miss Elina,"
the driver said.
"Hi, Mark,"
she replied casually, dropping her backpack.
The car pulled away smoothly, leaving behind the version
of her everyone else knew. ⸻ At home, everything was
different. A massive gate. Security cameras.
A house so big it felt more like a hotel.
Her parents were almost never around—always traveling,
always working. Money was everywhere.
Time wasn’t. Elina walked through the silent halls, her
footsteps echoing. She passed rooms she barely used, shelves
filled with things she never asked for.
Then she went to her room—the only place that actually
felt like hers. She sat on her bed and stared at her phone.
Dozens of messages in the class group chat.
Plans, jokes, drama. None of them included her.
⸻ The next day, something unexpected happened.
A new student arrived. His name was Dorian.
He didn’t try to impress anyone. Didn’t chase popularity.
He just… observed. At lunch, when everyone else ignored
Elina like usual, he sat across from her.
"You’re not what they think you are,"
he said. Elina looked up, confused.
"What do you mean?"
He smiled slightly.
"You hide it well."
Her heart skipped.
"Hide what?"
He leaned back in his chair.
"The fact that you don’t belong in this place."
For a moment, she said nothing. Then she asked quietly,
"And you do?"
