IR: You're going to be late for your class if you sleep in any longer my dear. * Mom said opening the blinds to my dorm room. *
IC: What? * I asked sitting up. *
IR: You have 45 minutes before your next class.
IC: Mom! My alarm was set to go off in three minutes! Do you know how embarrassing it is to get a visit from the dean? Shouldn't you be in a meeting or something?
IR: Not till 11. Rise and shine darling.
IC: Ugh, 엄마, 제가 당신을 사랑하는 건 알지만 가끔은 정말 제 신경을 거스르실 수도 있어요! (eomma, jega dangsin-eul salanghaneun geon aljiman gakkeum-eun jeongmal je singyeong-eul geoseuleusil sudo iss-eoyo!/Mom, you know I love you, but you can really get on my nerves sometimes!)
IR: 알아요. 하지만 수업에 늦지 않게 할게요. (al-ayo, hajiman sueob-e neuj-ji anhge halgeyo./I know, but I won't have you late for your class.)
IC: Okay, I'm up. * Mom's watch beeped. *
IC: Emergency?
IR: Yep, gotta go. Bye! * Mom rushed out of the room. *
IC: Always in a rush. * The door burst open. *
AL: Good morning beautiful lady.
IC: Good morning Mr. Loves. Get out and let me get dressed.
AL: Alright. * Austin left the room. I got up and took a shower. Then I got dressed. This is what I wore. *

IC: I'm ready!
AL: Awesome, let's go. * I grabbed a granola bar and we left. We had our classes and then afterward Austin and I went to our jobs at Starbucks. I clocked in and it was a typical boring work day until the cutest boy I have ever seen walked in. *

IC: Wow! Uh, I- mean. Hi, welcome to Starbucks. What can I get for you today?
??: Hi, can I just get a Venti caramel iced latte? That would be awesome.
IC: Yeah of course. Name?
??: Jonah.
IC: Okay, Jonah I'll get started on your drink and it'll be really something. I- uhm I mean ready soon. * Jonah chuckled. *
JM: Awesome, thank you.
IC: Cof yourse. I- I mean, of course. * I turned around and started on Jonah's drink. *
AL: So sad.
IC: Shut up, you know how I get around cute guys.
AL: I am hurt! You don't think I'm cute?
IC: Nope, you're like my brother and that would be gross.
AL: Appalled, I am.
IC: Shut up, Yoda. Maybe he and I could hit it off.
AL: One day you'll realize. Anyway, go ahead. I'm sure he has a girlfriend.
IC: What if he doesn't?
AL: He probably does.
IC: But if he doesn't?
AL: He won't be into you and you'll embarrass yourself.
IC: Have some faith. His drink is ready. * I turned around. *
IC: Jonah, your drink is ready. * Jonah came and got his drink. *
JM: Thank you.
IC: Woure yelcome. Oh gosh. I mean you're welcome. * Jonah smiled that beautiful smile of his. *
JM: Thanks again. * He left. *
IC: I'm an idiot.
AL: Agreed.
IC: Shut up. * After work Austin and I went back to our dorm. *
AL: I'm gonna take a shower.
IC: Okay. * Austin went into the bathroom and went into my bedroom. My mom was waiting for me. She looked super nervous. *
IR: Where have you been?
IC: Chill out, Iris, I was at work.
IR: I thought they got you. * Mom hugged me. *
IC: I know better than to be kidnapped, Omma.
IR: Good. I need your help.
IC: With what?
IR: To defeat Witch and Wizard.
IC: Actually?
IR: Yeah, I can't do it alone.
IC: Why don't you just ask Dad?
IR: I don't trust him. Not anymore. Not after he did what he did.
IC: But it's the fate of the world! I am untrained.
IR: I can train you.
IC: I can barely even fly. Training me would take months!
IR: I believe in you.
IC: I don't know. * Mom sighed. *
IR: What if, while we're training, I asked your father to put his cape back on and help us?
IC: Seriously?
IR: Yes. I guess I'm willing to look past our differences.
IC: I'm in.
IR: Good, let's go.
IC: Wait, now?
IR: Yes now.
IC: Omma, I have a 10-page paper that's due tomorrow.
IR: Have you started?
IC: Maybe.
IR: Irene.
IC: Okay, I haven't even started researching.
IR: You are your father's child. I'm leaving to get your father, you start working and we'll come and get you.
IC: Do I have to?
IR: Yes, as your mother and the dean I order you to start working.
IC: Fine. Can you at least bring me some food?
IR: Sure. I'll order you some. I'll be back in a couple of hours. Please, stay safe.
