Sorry. || Seulrene

Irene's pov

"I felt very happy last month as everyone finished this semester heathy and academically. Especially for Seulgi. She deserved it more than anyone else in this school, including me. That's because she had a choice.. she had multiple choices. She could've transferred anytime, any day but she didn't and that's what I find really courageous. Those words I wish I could say to her but I can't because she thinks all compliments are out of pity.

enough of that.. tomorrow is a new start. A new beginning. A new semester." I wrote in my journal.

I put down my journal and put my pen back. "Tomorrow is going to be more exciting, I know it" I thought to myself. I got up from my seat and got ready to shower. "Aren't you going to sleep?" Gahyeon asked. She looked at me awkwardly as I'm in my towel. "No hun you should go to sleep though. I'm pretty sure your sister would be very mad at me if she saw that you were awake talking to me." I said to the younger girl. She didn't reply and just went back to her room. I felt bad but the words had to be said. As I'm older I have a responsibility to make sure I do whatever her sister says. She came to stay with me for 3 weeks because her sister is on a business trip. Poor kid has to put up with me. Today is her second day with me and I think she's very polite but also a very typical 1999 liner.

As I finished with my shower I got ready for bed. It is going to be a better day tomorrow... I repeated those words to myself & closed my eyes.

"good morning!!!"  Gahyeon yelled
"Oh my god you scared me" I woke up very confused and startled.
"I'm sorry" said Gahyeon.
I opened my eyes and saw the younger girl all up in my face. "Were you always this hyper in the morning?" I asked. "No but today is a good day already!" she answered.

right..? it wasn't just me who felt this way. Today was very different and unique. "I'm gonna get ready for school" Gahyeon said and pulled me back to reality.

Gahyeon left the room and closed the door. I also got up and made my way towards my closet. I didn't know what to wear. Which was very odd normally I'm always prepared but today was just weird. I had to wear something cute.
I scanned my closet for 40 minutes and finally picked out my normal denim jeans and my blue plaid blouse. I wore my grey beret on top of it.

I was ready to go to school. I walked out of my room and went to the bathroom. Brushed my teeth. Did my skin care and went out the bathroom. I made my way towards the empty quiet hall. "huh... odd.. seems like Gahyeon already left." I said to myself.
I sighed, took my keys, stepped out of my house and locked my door.  I made my way towards school.

Everyone dressed beautifully as I expected. I guess it is because it's been a while that everyone has seen each other and everybody just wants to impress each other. Cute. They dress to impress. I don't though. I dress to make myself feel good and liberated. I do everything that it takes to make myself feel accomplished and satisfied. It's the most healthy thing one can do.. and I recommend that more than anything..

"Aren't you going to head into the building?" asked the mysterious girl with black hair, Harry Potter glasses and a plaid suit.
"Yes... but who are you?" I ask the woman and scan her confused.. I don't recognize her. I've never seen her.
