-The next morning-

Chris’/Your POV

It’s like maeil maeil everyday ya~

My alarm rang. I woke up and turned it off.

“Urghhh… Why should I wake up early huh…” I groaned as I marched to the toilet to get myself ready. After finished everything, I met L.Joe oppa when I was on the way to the big dining room for breakfast.

“Eomma, Appa, Oppa, eat well~” I started to chew my pancakes. “Hmm, this is yummy!”

“Yeah, I loved the breakfast today.” L.Joe oppa said as he tasted the toast.

“Hahaha, glad you like it. But you guys don’t really have time to enjoy the food that long. You’ll be late for school.” Eomma pointed at the clock, showing it’s 7.30 A.M.

“Your school starts at 8 A.M right? Better get ready now.” Appa suggested while reading his newspaper. I and oppa understood. We quickly finished up their breakfast and marched into the limo and settled out to school. In a few minutes, we arrived. The school wasn’t really crowded, so we easily walked to the lobby without crowd. We met the principal.

“Annyeonghaseyo, I’m Ms. Hwang, your principal. You must be Cellia Christabelle and this is your brother, Lee Byunghun?”

“Yup, Nice to meet you Ms. Hwang.” We both bowed. “Okay then, you both can follow me to my office. I will give your schedules, key lockers and other equipment.” She led us the way to her office.

“So Cellia, your class will be on 2-1 (grade 10) while Byunghun’s will be on 2-3 (grade 11). These will be your books and key locker” she handed us all of the stuffs.

“Gamsahamnida Ms. Hwang.” We both bowed and excused ourselves from her office. “So, what’s your class?” Oppa asked me.

“It’s 3-1 (10). How about you oppa?”

“Oh mine’s 1-1 (12) Well, I guess we should get going now huh?” Oppa said as the bell rung. “Okay, annyeong!” I hugged him before going to my new class.

“Ne annyeong dongsaeng! Saranghae!!!” he waved at me. “Aish that person” I chuckled. Soon I continued my way to my new class. Suddenly, I got nervous. What if my classmates don’t like me? What if I’m going to be bullied again like before?

‘Argh, bad thoughts started to fulfill my mind…’

As soon as the teacher asked me to come in, I built up confidence and came in steadily. I did an introduction, “Annyeonghaseyo. My name is Cellia Christabelle Lee. You can call me Chris Lee since the people in the states call me that. Nice to meet you all and hope that we can be friends.” I bowed to the class. The class clapped for me. ‘Wow, that was unexpected’ I thought.

“Students, if you have any questions, you can ask Chris before she sit” the teacher said. I can see a few students raising their hands up.

“Chris-ssi, how old are you?” a girl asked while giving me a warm smile. “I’m 15 years old.” I smiled back. The whole class startled a little. “So you are 1 year younger than all of us?” another student asked.

“Yes… I guess?” I looked confused and gave the teacher a glare.

“Ah, I forgot to tell you guys. Since Chris is clever, she skipped 1 class. She had been studying in Canada for 2 years too.”

I could hear the students gasping and some said ‘wow’.

“Why are you so tall? You look like an Skyscraper” a girl with brown wavy hair asked.
