NAMED LATE

CHAPTER 9

FIRST SNOW

Hearing my alarm, I quickly reach it to turn it off. I slowly open my eyes as I look at the window.

"Seems like Mr. Sun is not gonna show up today." I said to myself and get up.

I wash up and get dressed. Walking straight to the kitchen, I reached out for the cereal and prepared my breakfast. Checking my bag as I start eating my phone beeped.

"Hello?" I said answering the call.

"Don't forget your coat brat." Winter said from the line. "It's snowing."

"Idiot, I'm not a brat." I responded. "And don't worry I love winter season."

"Does that mean you love me?"

"Definitely not." I said putting my bowl on the sink. "I love the season but I don't like the idea of it being called Winter."

"And why?"

"Because it's ugly just like you."

He laughed at my statement. "But it's my season. So get ready because I'll show you how handsome I am."

"It'll took thousands of winter seasons before that happens."

"Don't peek on the window by the way. It's nice to see the snow outside by yourself."

"Got it."

"See you at school brat."

"BYE!"

Right after the call ended, my door opens revealing mama.

"Here's your coat baby." She said handing my a coat. "It's snowing outside."

I wore the coat and followed her walking our way out. There we saw Sunwoo and Giwook. Sunwoo's car was covered by the snow. They were arguing in front it Sunwoo's car.

"Hey!" I called. They both faced me and bowed to my mama. "Is everything okay?" I asked.

"No." Sunwoo responded.

"Why?" I asked.

"As you see, Sunwoo's car was covered with snow. He wanted to be my passenger in my motorcycle. But who stupid person would drive a motorcycle in this cold season? It's snowing Sunwoo do you think I'd drive myself by that?"

"We can give you a ride." I turned to my mama who is getting in on the driver's seat. "Right mama?"

"Of course! You'll gonna be late come on."

As mama starts driving, I look at the window watching the falling snow flakes. This isn't my first time here but it did felt like it is.

As we stopped on the school's parking lot, we all got out from the car. "Show me to your classroom Woobyul." She said.

"Sure mama." I answered and we walk our way to our classroom.

Students were look at us as my auntie walks like a model.

"You're right Woobyul, they got all their eyes on you when you walk with your auntie." Giwook giggled.

"This is my classroom mama." I said as we stopped on the door step. "I gotta go inside." I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Oh wait." She said giving me a wallet. "Use it well alright? I'll pick you up later." She said and I nodded.

As I went in, I saw Haknyeon beside my chair.

"You have a lot of things that you need to explain to me Zhong Wubei." He said and pouted.

"But why are you here? You should be on your classroom."
