Jaw Dropped!

Chapter 1

"GOO MAE RI!!!!!! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE!!!!!" Called my dad. I jumped out of bed and ran downstairs to see him sitting at the dinner table with my mom and brother.

"You called??" I asked. He looked at me with annoyed eyes.

"Cut the attitude. And yes, I did. Drop your brother off at school." He ordered. My eyes widened. "What?"

"Dad... I have school. I can't."

"You could be a little late. His school isn't that far."

"It's a thirty minute walk from both here to there and there to here. And from here to my school, it's a fourty-five minute walk. I'll be an hour and fifteen minutes late to school."

"So? You're doing bad in every class anyway." My brother, Hansol laughed.

"Shut up!"

"That's enough!" My mother yelled. "Drop him off. Now. And, you can't talk to Hyeri today. You're grounded."

"But, that's not fair!" I protested.

"Cut the shit, Mae Ri. Either you drop your brother off, or we can go the rest of the year!" She warned.

"Oh my god..." I whispered. I slapped my hands on my face and rubbed my eyes. "Fine. I'll drop him off." With that, I ran upstairs and got ready for school.

"Ms. Goo Mae Ri... It's nice to see you when you're an hour and thirty minutes late." My English teacher said sarcastically. I bowed to him.

"I'm sorry, teacher. I had to drop my brother off and I tried taking the bus, but there was a lot of traffic early this morning." I explained.

"Whatever. Just take a seat next to Mr. Song Min Ho." He said.

"Teacher!" We yelled in unison. He looked at us.

"What??" He asked.

"I don't like her!"

"And, I don't like him!"

"Aish, why?"

"She's stupid."

"And, he's full of it. Can I just sit next to Hyeri for today?? Huh?? Please???!!" He sighed.

"Fine. But if you two start talking, I'm seating you next to him. Forever. Got it?" I looked at him and he gave me a dirty look. I scoffed.

"I got it." I said. I sat down next to Hyeri, and breathed out in relief.

"You okay??" She asked. She's the total opposite of me. She's pretty, smart, well-known, and she has a decent family background.

"Yes... Knowing that I won't have to sit next to that assface, I'm fine." I assured. She laughed.

"Ms. Mae Ri... What does 'sarang' mean in English?" He asked me. Luckily, this was English class. I know fluent English. I just don't want to do the work.

"Sarang? It means, 'love.' I know English Mr. Park." I answered. He nodded.

"Correct! So... What would you do if you fell in love, Goo Mae Ri?" He questioned.

"Me?" I wondered. He nodded. "I won't. I'm sure of it. There is no one in this world who I would love."

"Besides her cats." The class laughed. I laughed along.

"You're right! Nice thinking, Min Ho. Now, how about I take my foot and shove it up your a-"

"Ms. Mae Ri..." He looked at me. "I'm serious. What would you do?" I thought about it for a while. 'What would I do?'
