Aiden

Back in school, Aiden was the boy everyone called ugly without hesitation. His clothes were outdated, his hair messy, his posture awkward. Students laughed when he walked by. Teachers barely noticed him. He had no friends—only silence and humiliation. And then there was Chloe. Chloe was the villain of the school—beautiful, sharp-tongued, and cruel. She enjoyed power and attention and knew exactly how to use her looks. Aiden fell for her anyway. Hopelessly. On the final day of school, he did the unthinkable. In front of the entire school. With trembling hands and a shaking voice, he proposed to her. The response was brutal. Chloe laughed—loud, mocking, heartless. “Look at you,” she said cruelly. “You’re ugly. Do you really think someone like me would ever date someone like you?” The school erupted in laughter. His humiliation was complete. That moment destroyed him. Four years later, Aiden stepped onto a university campus. He was unrecognizable. Tall, confident, sharply dressed, intense eyes, perfectly styled hair—Aiden was now handsome and dangerously attractive. On his very first day, girls whispered, stared, and openly flirted. Some were already obsessed. But Aiden didn’t look at anyone. He didn’t care. Among the new students was Chloe. She noticed him immediately—felt drawn to him—but didn’t recognize him. Not at first. Until he spoke. “Still think I’m ugly?” he said calmly. Her face froze. “I’m Aiden,” he continued. “The boy you humiliated.” Shock turned into regret... and then obsession. Aiden ignored her completely. Walked past her. Treated her like she didn’t exist. And that rejection drove Chloe insane. She followed him everywhere. Tried to talk to him. Tried to win him back. But he was done. That same day, another girl arrived at the university. It was her first day too—quiet, sincere, untouched by cruelty. And this time, Aiden’s story wasn’t about revenge anymore. It was about choosing someone who never called him ugly.
