English in bold.


It can destroy us or it can change the world~ Ateez Treasure

School is a nightmare like honestly. Or college is anyway. Whoever likes school is either messed up, a teacher's pet or I don't even know. I was walking to the head of the school because you know, new student and all, I have no idea where to go. On the outside I probably looked pretty helpless, but my earbuds said a different story, they were blasting Jay Park's F*ckboy. I did know the lyrics because I learnt Korean or was forced to by my non-existent parents because I had to live here. 

This is how you survive in Korea, by learning the language. I also knew a little English but that was from school and that was about it. I'm not a genius why is everyone always like that. I'm not in a fan fiction where the OC can speak about eighty languages fluently or always do cute mistakes. No, I do big mistakes, on the way here I swear I said to a bus driver, have a nice chicken instead of day. Oh well.

I knocked on the door of the principal and was told to come in. By this time, my earbuds were out and for good reason, the principal looked like a scary dude. "Sit down Miss..." I thought for a moment and decided to keep my Chinese last name and answered, "Wang." I was gonna change it to Kim because that's like every basic wannabe around here... no offence. 

I sat down and the principal said, "You have moved from China, correct?" I nodded and he carried on. "So, here is your timetable, any causing trouble and there will be detention, more than three detentions in a week will lead to temporary expulsion. Are you with me?" I nodded quickly. 

"The collage rules are all on the school website and on this sheet here. You have applied for 1 course which is commercial dance, plus the courses you have to do which are English, Korean, Math. Your first lesson is English with Mrs Da. This room is on the second floor third door down the left hall. Have a good day." I stood up and hurried out of the room, kind of dawdling down the hall because, who wants to be in a class?

Once I arrived outside the door of English with Mrs Da, I knocked on this door - too much knocking today- and walked inside. There was like rows of tables one behind the other with like a split in the middle where you can walk through. Mrs Da seemed to be expecting me and said, "Good morning, Miss Wang, there is a seat free next to Im Nayeon, Nayeon raise your hand please."

A girl near the back raised her hand in a bored manner. I walked to sit next to her and Miss Da said, "You can introduce yourself, unless you don't know much Korean." I looked at her and said, "No, I don't know Korean." It was in perfect Korean which defeated the point and as she looked at me baffled and the class laughed a little, I sat next to Nayeon.

"Hey," the girl named Nayeon said. She was quite pretty, and her hair was nice too. I waved back slightly and two girls that were in front of us turned around. One had kind of short hair and the other had visuals out of this world. The one with short hair said, "Hi, I'm Jeongyeon. This is Tzuyu, she's a little quieter." The girl named Tzuyu frowned at Jeongyeon and hit her lightly on the shoulder. I heard Miss Da cough loudly at the front and the two girls turned around. "Who knows the meaning of this word? Eating-"

                                                                                       ***

"Miss Wang. Wanna sit with us for lunch?" Jeongyeon said. I smiled a little, "My name is Emma." Tzuyu looked confused, "I thought that was an English name?" I nodded seriously, "Yeah it is but the Chinese fought with many soldiers to steal that name and now it's mine." Tzuyu looked at me with an eyebrow raised, "I'm not that stupid." Nayeon spoke up from behind me and said, "Really? I never knew."  Jeongyeon pushed them both to the side and said, "Tell me more about these soldiers."

We sat down for lunch and considering English was a double period and I missed half the morning getting here I was quite hungry. Many girls I didn't know the names of sat down at the table we were sat at, but it looked like they were friends with the girls I knew. A girl that didn't look Korean introduced them with perfect Korean which made my mind a little confused. I was in full frown mode. "Hi, I'm Momo, that's Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Chaeyoung and Dahyun." I tried to take it all in, but it would take a few hours to memorize them all. She continued, "What's your name-?"

Suddenly, seven girls and three boys came up behind her and one of them in the front said, "New recruit Jihyo?" Jihyo, who was sat next to Momo, turned around and said in what sounded like an offended voice, "No." On the outside I was calm but, on the inside, I was like: Gee thanks. 

The girl in the front that said that said, "So can we take her?" I was kind of making a derpy face now, I am not for sale by the way people. THAT IS HUMAN TRAFFICKING. Jihyo quickly said, "No." I was like: Is all these girls knows is, no? Then she said something I wasn't expecting, "So go away Sixeng and leave us alone." Who knew she could form sentences?

The Korean version of barbie but less plastic walked away with her posse, and I said, "Is that fake or real beauty?" The girls all laughed, and I think it was Sana that said, "Real. She's been pretty since like 4 years old." I heard a voice behind me shouting something extremely odd and it had nothing to do with a chicken, so I turned around to make a face and saw the most beautiful boy ever. Like, no drama or nothing he was like, really hot. Jeongyeon turned around too to see who I was looking at and then, everyone else followed almost in sync and them all either gasped or well, gasped. 

As we turned back to our original positions I said, "What's with the gasping?" Sana said, "That's Sixeng's brother and Mina's ex." I looked immediately at Mina and said, "We are just friends don't sweat it." I said slowly, "What's his name?" Mina grinned a bit and Nayeon face palmed. Mina said, "I said it's fine guys. His name is Sicheng." I awed inside, even the name is cute. Jihyo then randomly said, "Hey Wang. Do you want to hang out at mine tonight with the girls?" This elicited a mix of reactions and confused, I said, "Sure, and it's Emma by the way."
