﹃CHAPTER 1: NEW BOY﹄

『POV JIHEE』

-JIHEE, WAKE UP! Want to be late for the first day of school?!?

I wake up by hearing my brother screaming from the living room

-JIHEE!! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME??? - His voice, apparently already irritated by my lateness, is getting closer to my bedroom door.
-KANG JIHEE, YOU WILL END UP LATE ME, GIRL! JIHEE...

-I'M COMING!!! CAN YOU BE MORE PATIENT? I say in the same tone as the older one, but with a little tiredness in my voice.

I grab some clothes, a pair of baggy jeans and a teal and navy blue polo shirt and run to the bathroom to change. I wash my face, brush my teeth, there was no need to take a shower as I had taken it last night before bed and I hadn't gotten dirty during the night, right? Why waste water unnecessarily? My friends call me disgusting, I prefer to say it's effective and economical. I put a cream on my hair, because I have curly hair, in fact, I'm the only one in my family with hair like that, do you know why? My mother was a foreigner and my father Korean, I was more like my mother, who was Brazilian, my mother had darker skin and curly hair, she was beautiful! But because of that, everyone thinks I'm a foreigner and approaches me on the street in English. Ugh! I hate when this happens! I have to explain my whole life story and explain that I was born here in South Korea, in Busan to be more specific, and the worst thing is that my brother makes fun of me for being different, he calls me adopted and things like that. I know he's joking, but it's really annoying.

I look in the mirror one last time, I need to be presentable, today is the first day of school, I'm captain of the school's cheerleading team, I'm on the Student Council and I help exchange students to fit in, I'm like it a counselor, but from high school, I mean, I was supposed to be a counselor, but I'm more like a psychologist, literally, all the students who need "help" comes to me and comes to talk about their love problems and stuff like that, you have no idea! I get a headache!  I think I'm getting away from the subject a lot, anyway I wanted to make a good impression on freshmen and newbies, besides, they would see my pretty face the entire school year.

-JIHEE, IF I GET LATE BECAUSE OF YOU, I WILL CUT YOU INTO PIECES, FRY IT AND EAT IT ONE BY ONE!

-YOU CANNIBAL! I'M GOING NOW! - I say going down the stairs, putting my sneakers on my feet on the way.

- Come, we have to go! -Says TaeHyun impatiently, leaning on the kitchen counter.

I take a banana that was in the fruit bowl and run after TaeHyun, who in turn, was already completely annoyed with me.

-Why did you took so long?- Says the eldest, locking the house door and unlocking the car door.

-I didn't take long, you who were in a hurry - I say opening the car door and sitting in the passenger seat.

-You brat, I've been waiting for you for almost 1 hour! Are you kidding me?

-Ahh, but I'm already here, ok? Stop complaining... - I close my face sulking like a baby

We follow the path seriously and in silence.
My brother and I always fight, but above all, I consider him more like a father than a brother. I know teases me all the time but overall he is my protector, and he always defends me in fights and take care of me, even when he didn't had to. TaeHyun was the one who practically raised me, he was there in the most difficult moments and took my pain for him. We fight sometimes, but I know he loves me and I love him too.

When my parents died, it was a difficult time for both of us. Taehyun was in the ninth grade and I was in sixth, he was only 14 years old and I was 12, one child taking care of another, we didn't have anyone from the direct family, just each other. We lived alone and the police always knocked to see if we had a responsible person at home, so TaeHyun said that we lived with our uncle and aunt, but they were always going out, or that they were sleeping. The worst thing about this was that the police actually believed this. Which could mean two options: either the cops were very dumb, or TaeHyun is a criminal genius. He could have a career, but he would never do that. TaeHyun can be cold sometimes, but he's butter hearted. When he turned 16, we ran away from Busan to Seoul, started a new life here, and luckily for me, my childhood friends' family moved here soon after, I was so happy! When we moved, Taehyun was old enough to have part-time jobs so he started earning more money (he already worked in Busan but since he was just a kid he would get a very little amount of money. TaeHyun was already so smart and responsible, but at the same time he was so young, so I'm proud of this wormhead.
