"Alright class listen up! We have two new student's today so please give a warm welcome" the teacher miss row announced to the class of mixed grades. Some of the kids were eighth graders and some were first graders but Aliza was a second grader. Based on the fact that the teacher said two new students Aliza knew who it was.

Her teeth shown brightly as two figures entered the door of the classroom, it was like the already sunshiny room got brighter. She almost blurted out a big fat hi but she held it in because the kids didn't even introduce themselves yet. Her and jeongguk locked eyes and he smiled cutely, gaining the confidence to speak but then his eyes drifted to a person behind her. "Hii...my name is jeongguk and this is my sister nari..nice to meet you" he seemed scared. Aliza noticed and her face dropped. Smile disappeared faster than Lightning.

She whipped her pretty head behind her and had the nerve to raise an eyebrow at who ever was making him uncomfortable. It was Damien the boy who kept trying to get her to be his girlfriend. She always told him no because she was too young but he insisted. "What are you doing!" She whispered. "Nothing why? Do you like him?" Damien was a fourth grader and Aliza was a second grader just like nari, and jeongguk like Damien. "No he's my friend. Stop being rude or I'm telling mrs row!" And with that, a little cherry on top, she turned around and gave jeongguk a comforting smile.

Since Aliza preferred her own table because she didn't like distractions, it was no surprise that she was in the corner by herself yet she was telling nari and jeongguk to head over and sit with her. The two did, well only because nari went anywhere her brother did. "Hiiiii you guys can sit with me!" Aliza cheered, it was no doubt that she really loved her two new friends, even her other friends weren't allowed to sit with her due to her own rules.

Damien, the curly red haired boy sat in his seat looking at jeongguk. He pondered about what jeongguk had that he didn't? "We did have the same teacher after all!" Jeongguk giggled and nari nodded. That was the first reaction Aliza had gotten out of the girl and boy was she excited. "Yeah we really did! We have to do this thingy" Aliza pointed to a page in her school text book that had questions on it. It was to see how much everyone remembered from the first semester of school.

"We don't have one of those..." jeongguk trailed off, nari beginning to nod again but paused when Aliza pushed two blue books infront of them. Where did she even get those from? "They are under the seats!" She showed them the page they needed to be on before returning to her own book, not before announcing that if they need help to ask her. "I've never seen this question before.." jeongguk sighed out in agony, he never liked tests or anything that required thinking really.

"Which one?" Of course the girl didn't hesitate to help her friend out. "Eleven, the one about apples." He spoke, nari slumping in her chair defeated by the same question as well. "Oh that one.. it's asking if you had a apple and I had an apple, but you dropped one..how many apples are in total?" Yeah the question was worded weird in the textbook so she understood where he was coming from. "One? Because I lost mine and there were two at first right?" He didn't want to seem dumb but he needed to be on the same page.

"Yes! The books make it hard to understand because they like to see who thinks harder and I hate it too so don't worry!" Nari smiled, Aliza gave them the answer and helped them figure out the question.

A few hours of learning and giggles between the three and lunch started. Due to them already having certain groups for lunch the three had to be separated sadly. Jeongguk did care for Aliza don't get him wrong but she already knew her group, now he was worried about his sister. Nari was mute and she didn't speak unless she was alone with jeongguk. Not even her parents heard her voice unless she was screaming, and that wasn't even words.

He just hoped she wouldn't be getting bullied by the kids in her group because of that. Now for himself, he had a group with the same kid from earlier, the one who glared at him during his introduction. This lunch will be long...
