My Secret Letter

•~• THE NEXT DAY •~•

"All right, class, settle down." Ms. Yuri stated as she went into the space.

N: Everyone returned to their chairs and took a seat.

She continued, "I have an important announcement."

Chi raised an eyebrow and said, "Did we do something wrong?"

Yeon said, "Is that the kind of announcement that's why it's important?"

"First of all, you didn't do anything wrong and second, it's not that kind of announcement" stated Ms. Yuri.

Everyone inquired, "So, what's the announcement?"

Their president, looking irritated, said, "Can everyone just shut up, Ms. Yuri can't announce if you'll keep interrupting her!"

"Thank you" she replied and went on to say, "All right, so I was saying, the important announcement I was gonna tell you was that we will be having three new transfer students that will be joining our class from now on"

The news from Ms. Yuri set the classroom on fire with excitement.
Curious looks were exchanged by Eun, Sei, and Aumi as they wondered about the identities and personalities of their new classmates.

With a look of eagerness in their eyes, Eun held out their hand. With eager expectation, they said, "Ms. Yuri, do you know anything about the new transfer students? Like where they're from or why they're joining our class?"

Ms. Yuri grinned kindly at Eun's excitement. "I'm afraid I don't have much information yet, Eun," she said. "But I'm sure they'll introduce themselves properly once they arrive. Let's give them a warm welcome, shall we?"

Sei agreed and nodded, their look contemplative. Their thoughts were already racing with the prospect of making new friends and allies, "I wonder if they'll be able to keep up with our class," they pondered.

"I'm sure, Ms. Yuri will give them notes for the lessons so that they can keep up," Aumi said, nodding in accord.

Ms. Yuri was appreciative of Aumi's optimistic attitude and grinned at her certainty. She said, "That's right, Aumi," in a kind and encouraging tone. "I'll make sure the new students have all the resources they need to settle in smoothly."

She nodded and turned to face the three figures who were nervously standing at the door of the classroom, their looks a mixture of apprehension and eagerness.

Ms. Yuri said, waving for the newcomers to come in. "Everyone, please give a warm welcome to your new classmates."

The first student to arrive was a tall, thin girl with cheerful eyes and a kind grin. Her voice rang with excitement as she introduced herself, "Hello, everyone! My name is Hana. I'm really excited to be joining your class!"

The youngster who came next had untidy hair and a playful sparkle in his eyes. "Hello, I'm Ren," he said in a kind yet assured voice. "Looking forward to getting to know you all."

Yeon chuckled and added, "Oh my, hottie alert," as the other females joined in and mumbled.

"Yeon, he's definitely your type," the other girl remarked.

Yeon was so embarrassed by the taunting that she reddened angrily. Though her cheeks were becoming hot, she objected, "Oh, stop it, you guys," trying not to show off.
