Happy 6th anniversary Girls' Generation

PROLOGUE

Sooyoung's POV

==============

I found myself walking into my school’s gymnasium and began to reminisce about one of my favorite memories of that place.

FLASHBACK

“Choi Sooyoung look out!” Right as the girl turned around the kick ball made a loud smack to her head sending the latter to fall. “Yah! Sooyoung I told you to look out!” The girl ran to her and helped her up. “Are you okay?”

Sooyoung simply nodded before realizing what had happened, “Kwon Yuri you could have given me a bloody nose!” she said while grabbing a hold on to Yuri’s collar.

“Yah, I told you to look out!” She yelled trying to get away. Sooyoung held Yuri into a headlock before another girl yelled for them.

“You two! Stop playing around we’ve got practice in an hour!” 

Sooyoung released her hold on Yuri and gave her a smirk, “On three?” 

“Yah!” She started to run around the gym to escape from their grasps “Come on why me?!” When the two were able to finally catch her they each grabbed her arms and legs, “Let me go!” she yelled.

“Come on Taengoo it’s all about practice with you and no fun” Yuri pouted.

“We’ve got a big competition coming up!” Taeyeon said as she struggled to break free. 

Yuri looked at Sooyoung, “Yah, I’ve got an idea. Let’s throw her into the pool!” 

Sooyoung suddenly raised her eyebrows at the idea, “Hmm, sounds like a plan my dear Yuri.” 

“Wae, What?! No, let me go! Guys come one!” Taeyeon, once, again pleading for her mercy, “I’ll buy you lunch for a week Sooyoung!” 

Suddenly Sooyoung stopped in her tracks, “A week?” she asked. 

“No Sooyoung be strong!” Yuri said trying to convince her.

“Shut up Yuri!” Taeyeon yelled. 

Sooyoung contemplated on what she should do. A week of food would be quite wonderful for the dear shikshin, however, throwing Taeyeon into the pool just seemed a whole lot more satisfying. “Alright, a week though. Promise?” 

Taeyeon nodded to her, “I promise now let me down!”

She complied and released her hold on Taeyeon’s leg. “Aish, Sooyoung, you are so weak when it comes to food.” 

“I’m sorry Yul” She said in defeat. 

“Then again I never agreed!” With that, Yuri released her hold on Taeyeon’s hands and picked her up bridal style and began running towards the indoor pool, “Hold your breath Taengoo!” she yelled before jumping into the pool. 

When the two swam up to surface an angry Taeyeon released her rage, “KWON YURI YOU ARE DEAD!”

END OF FLASHBACK 

I started to chuckle to myself at what happened that day but quickly regained my composure when I heard a cough behind me snapping me back to reality, “Ahem, I’m sorry, but you aren’t allowed to be here before school hours.

“Oh, my bad.” I turned around to see who it was. That girl, the one who always had the prettiest eye smile I’ve ever seen. I would talk to her all the time and come to her for advice. Although we weren’t really close as me and Yuri she was pretty much like the older little sister I would take care of. I walked towards her, “Sorry, I am new here, actually, could you please tell me where Class 3-B is?” What was I saying? I knew exactly where my class was. Besides, I am- was the President. I started to frown a little and I think she began to notice it.

“What’s wrong?” She asked me with that sweet smile of hers. 

“It’s nothing, I am just a bit tired from traveling is all” I lied. Quite nicely I thought since it was right off the top of my head. 

She looked at me curiously almost to the point that I thought she didn’t fall for it, “Oh! Where did you come from?”

“Tokyo” I responded without thinking.

“Wae! You came all the way from Japan!?” She exclaimed loudly.

“Hai, my family and I just moved from there to here so I could study my mother’s side of heritage.” It was a good thing that I had previously gone to Japan before so I knew enough Japanese to convince her. 

She started to clap her hands in amazement, “Your Korean is so good!” she held onto my hands and gave me her eye smile, “My name is Tiffany Hwang and it is nice to meet you!” 

“Same here! My name is Ch- I mean Lee Hanna” I said. Whew I almost let myself slip there for a moment. I thought to myself.

“Come with me Hanna-shi, it looks like we’ll be classmates!” She said as she dragged me along into the school building. 

We pass many students and one by one each of them were looking at me strangely, “Um Tiffany, is there anything on my face?”

“Don’t mind them Hannah-shi, they’re just curious about who the new cute student is.” 

“Eh there’s another new student?” I asked.

She slapped my arm, “Aish, you are so dense. The new cute student is you of course!” 

“Oh...” I felt my face get hotter and quickly hid my face from showing the obvious blush.

After passing a few classrooms we were finally in front of the class that read ‘3-B’. “Hanna-shi, here we are” Tiffany said while smiling. 

“Um, Tiffany. Could you please stop saying shi? We are friends now so there is no need.” I told her. 

“Okay Hanna. Now come on, it’s time to introduce yourself!” We opened the door and luckily there were only a few student inside the classroom since it was still before school hours. Tiffany lead me to a a table where two familiar girls were sitting and talking to each other. They both looked up and greeted me.

“Hey, new girl! My name is Kim Hyoyeon” Hyoyeon, she was always the charismatic character of the group. We always called her the ‘Dancing Queen’ since she was the best and everyone knew it besides her of course. That girl always being so humble. 

The next girl introduced herself, “Kim Taeyeon here!” she struck a pose while saying her name. Aish, dorky Taengoo as usual, I thought while trying to fight back the tears. “Omo is something wrong?!” she asked while holding onto my hands.

“Oh sorry! I’m still a bit dazed from all the moving” I managed to chuckle out. 

“Guys, she came all the way from Tokyo!” Tiffany explained. 

Both the girls widened their eyes, “Omo that far?!” 

I nodded my head in agreement, “But I’m really glad to be here now” 

“That’s cool. We had a friend who could speak Japanese” Taeyeon said in a sad tone. 

I knew the reason for it but asked anyways, “Had?”

“Oh, she moved away awhile back.” Hyoyeon responded in place of Taeyeon who was getting up from her seat.

“I’ll be back. Have to go to the bathroom.” She said as she left. 

When she had gotten up I was able to catch a glimpse of her face. Tears? Kim Taeyeon are those tears? Please, don’t cry. I’m still here. I thought. It took everything in me to not comfort the girl, but I knew none of them would believe me even if I told them everything. 

“I am going to go check up on her.” Tiffany said as she followed Taeyeon out.

“Sorry about that. It’s just that she’s really sad her friend left.” Hyoyeon herself was a pretty good liar and was able to hide her emotions quite well despite the fact that I knew better. 

I looked out the window and then back to Hyoyeon, “By the way, my name is...” Choi Sooyoung “...Lee Hanna”
