Today was the first day of my school in Korea after a long time being overseas. We have finally come back here again after mom and dad opened up another office branches in Seoul.

Its my first day in Korea but I wasn't feeling excited at all. I have no friends since I was born and grew up in New York. I have never expected a good situation anyway, all I did know were that I had to left all my friends and start a new life here. I even hate the fact that I know only a little Korean and I can barely communicate with people here.

"Rin A, you're ready?" Mom asked holding her car keys.

"Ah, um.. I thought oppa will send me and settle my school's transfer, no?" This is weird, mom barely stayed home and now she's doing this. Its not that I hate it but this kind of thing was so new to me.

"Oh, dear. Your oppa need to settle his own college's registration too. Okay, if you now ready, let's go. We don't want to be late for our first day of school".

Seoul Arts High School. That's it, the school mom have chose for me. I have never expected her to be this bold. All I ever want was to be an athlete and not doing some kind of weird stuff on stage. I never like arts, dancing, singing or anything related to this but she insisted on me to take vocal class.

This is all my brother's fault. I can do nothing because I know my family wanted the best for me. They don't want me to get hurt. Well, I admit doing sports are kind of risky because I need to take precautions step everytime and need to be minded not to be too ignorant.

That day I hurt my ankle and cant walk freely for four months hurts my mental a lot. I even got excluded from the international sports' competition and of course, I weeped the whole time.

That was when my brother suddenly brought me to his practice room he shared with his friend and taught me to sing. I was surprisingly good in singing that even he was dumbfounded. After a few talks with our parent, yes, they advised me to stop doing sports and learn arts instead.

I protested like hell only god knows how stupid that sounded. I don't know why my brother was doing such things at first, but then he assured me everything I need to know. I have always love him more than anything that I know he really cares for me.

I have never said I agree with their decision, but I just followed along. Its for my own good after all.

"Annyeong everyone, today we have a new transfer student from New York." Miss Yoon who I assumed the class teacher greeted her students while I stood besides her.

"Hm, this class is kinda quiet. I don't know Seoul students' are actually well behave." I was wondering why were they staring at me blankly. Confused.

"Ah, yes. My name is Kwon Rin A. You can call me Rin A. Nice to meet you guys." I said, in an awkward tone.

The whole classroom was quiet for a while and then one of them clapped, I supposed that was his way of greeting me while the others just nodded and smile.

I took a sit right beside the window. I didnt really have the courage to make friends with anyone yet. I need some times from all of this.

"Hey, blonde hair!" I look at my side just to be greeted by a finger poking my cheek.

"Hi, I'm Kim Taehyung but you can call me V." The finger was moving as if it was the one who's talking with me right now, with a weird English accent.

I cant help but scoff. "Pff". How childish. I didnt even get the chance to reply him as our next teacher was entering and he suddenly went back to his place again. "Whatever, I dont care."

Its the lunch time and I didnt feel like eating. Who can be calm anyway being in a place with total strangers so I decided to just stay in the class. I supposed this school was not bad at all. Some of them did approach and talk to me and yes, they are all friendly.

I decided to take a nap for a while since the class right after break hour was vocal class, my main subject and the class was the longest hour out of all my other subjects.

"Kwon Rin A?" I heard someone calling my name and turns out its the weird guy again. Now he's carrying my bag on his left shoulder and his bag on the other side.

I was about to talk when he cut me off. "You're taking the vocal class, right? Come on, it's late already. Mr. Park is not someone you should play with." And now he's dragging my arms and hurriedly guide me out of the class.

"So, uhm! Okay, let me make myself clear. This is our first meeting and I dont think it is proper for you to be acting like this since we're not close. Mind me?" I said while taking my bag off his shoulder and sassily walked passed by him.

I dont know what was wrong with him but I surely know he wasnt normal. Well, at least for now.

Okay, eventually my action wasnt a good thing at all. I am lost. I dont even know where am I heading to right now. I was passing by the same area again and again. I noticed someone followed me behind though. But I dont have the time to be worrying about that because all I know I am already late.

"Aish, really!" I sigh, starting to get annoyed. I was about to give up when I heard a laugh from behind.

He walked passed me, scoffing. He had orange hair, and not too tall compared to that V guy.

"If you're going to the vocal class, jut follow me. I'm heading the same way." He said, still walking. I have no choice but to walk behind him or else I'll be late. Damn, I'm so embarassed to death with the fact that a random passing by guy just scoffed at me.
