The red apple that should have stayed green

Chapter 1 - Snow

Her name is an ordinary name, she is an ordinary girl in an ordinary school. Her life was only a repetition of days. Nothing ever happened, and nothing ever changed. Until that day. That day of December ...

November 1st.

This day was cold and weather teller said that it was going to be dry and windy. Our little girl took her bag, her mom wished her a good day, and left home.

On her road to school two of her friends joins the walk. They were complaining about how homework were hard and that the math teacher was awful. She was agreeing, and angry about it too but just to be like her friends. In fact that night she ends them in 30mins finding the exercises easy. She never really tells her point of view scared that people could find her snooty or judging her.

They finally arrived at school, walked in the corridors, rode the stair still the third floor and got to their classroom, 3-C, her last classroom before university. The three girls said good morning and went to their tables. Our girl and her friends were talking about nail polish. Hanna was our girl model, she always thought that she was elegant, pretty, and cool. Everything she was lacking of. Hanna was saying that she put blue and made bunny on her left hand because she was on a cute mood yesterday. But colored orange and drew tiger on the right because she had to fight against the math problems. They burst out of laugh.

Suddenly one of the I-know-everything-that-happen-in-the-school ran in the class. Out of breathe he said that a new teacher was starting today ! All the class went crazy asking him details about it. Our girl stayed at her place. A new teacher ? And ? What is it gonna change ? Will he brings me confidence, no. So she just sat on her chair, looking by the window, waiting for class to begin.

The sky was very cloudy and no sky could be seen. She started to be lost in thoughts.

Will it be really dry today ? - She whispers

-No,it's gonna snow. - Someone answer her

-Oh really ? I like snow. - She said while smiling

-Yes, me too. But I prefer smiles.

She finally realized that someone was talking to her. She look next to her a young man was lean toward her looking at her smiling. Oh my god, what did I do ? She thought. She was so embarrassed that hervface went all red. The man laughed a bit and walk in the path to the front of the classroom. When he left she saw all her classmates looking at her with their mouth opened. She was lost and scared. She wanted to become invisible or even so tiny that they won't see her anymore. Her eyes became wet and her view blur. Her mind was screaming : What to do ? Stop looking at me !

The man cough a bit and took the attention on the students. She was relieved of the crowd attention.

He started to speak introducing himself. He was the new teacher, Lee Jinki. An English teacher. He was saying that the old teacher had to leave for personal reasons. But she wasn't stupid, she knew why the old man left.

The old teacher was in fact extorting money from rich students to give them higher marks. The head teacher found it out and fired him.

She stopped hiding to examine this new teacher. He was tall and sinewy. He had short brown hair. His eyes were small an brown covered by black glasses, his nose little, she even found it cute. He had astunning smile and she thought that it looked false. He was dressed in a formal but cool way. A teacher on whom all the girl will crush, she looked around the class found that she was right. All the girls were drinking his words.

"Okay, let's start today's lesson - Lee Jinki teacher ends his introduction- take your book to page 38."

The boys opened it wisely while the girls were still drooling on the teacher. Class representative, stood up and claimed that he didn't do the attendance, that it was a fault because some of the student weren't there and all other stuffs he always says to teacher.
