It's so cold outside, I can't feel my cheeks. Winter in Korea is always really cold, which I hate a lot because I'm just a summer person. Luckily our house isn't too far from the school, I would have probably frozen to an ice block by now if it was. Finally I see the school which looks pretty big, oh boy I'm for sure gonna get lost there. One foot in and I suddenly feel really nervous. It's so quiet here, oh god please don't tell me I accidentally went to school even though it's a weekend, it has happened to me before, how embarrassing.

I make my way to the principals office and knock on the door three times. Slowly, I open the door and see the principal who seems to be busy with a brown-haired boy.
"Listen I swear I didn't skip school yesterday, I wasn't feeling well so I decided to rest at home." The boy says in a pretty chill tone even though the principal has a mad face expression. "Taeyong, I don't know if I can believe you, after all the times you got caught leaving the school without permission. I think I need to call your parents again because of this." The principal grabs the phone and starts dialing a number. "You know what, do what you want, I don't care if you believe me or not, I don't have to prove anything okay" He stands up and stares at me with a full on emotionless face expression. I just stare back and get a really uncomfortable feeling. He leaves the room without saying another word. What the hell was that about? How awkward. The principal suddenly puts an obviously fake smile on his face and welcomes me to sit down. "So you must be Shin Mina right? You'll need this to find your classes." He hands me a sheet of paper where the classroom numbers are written on. "And I think you'll need someone to help you to not get lost here, please go the room opposite of my office and ask Mrs. Kim for a school guide. She'll help you out, good luck." He says with his fake smile still plastered on his face.
"Thanks a lot, have a nice day" I reply quickly, leave the room, shut the door behind me and knock on the door opposite of the office. A woman with a low bun and a pencil skirt asks if I'm here for the school guide. I nod. "Char here's the girl that you're supposed to help, please hurry up and don't let her wait."

A girl which looks around my age shows up and greets me.
"Hi I'm Char, I'm gonna be helping you with finding classrooms and stuff like that. I hope we can get along, we take a few classes together." She made a pretty good first impression I must admit.
"Hi my name is Mina, nice to meet u" I introduce myself and smile at her. Luckily she smiles back, it has happened to me a lot where some rude bitches just ignored me and didn't smile back, yikes. I'm glad I already got to know someone nice.

We walk around and she shows me where many important places like bathrooms, class rooms, science rooms and the library and cafeteria are. After we were done with the basic shit, she finally shows me where my class is now. "Wanna sit next to each other?" She asks with a cute little smile. I feel happy about her question and reply "Sure!"

I find her so nice and I noticed that we share the same sense of humor which is one of the things that are so important when you want to make new friends. I hope we can get closer soon. We knock twice on the door and enter it whilst everyone stares at me as if I murdered someone. Always the same shit. Char seems to notice that I'm a bit shy when it comes to classmates and teachers, so she goes to my teacher and tells her that I'm the new student for me. The teacher suddenly starts speaking "Everyone please greet Shin Mina! She's new here so please be nice to her." I hate getting all the attention in class. I feel nervous but get myself to finally say something.
"Hello I hope we all will get along!" The teacher smiles at me and tells me to choose a seat. Since there are barely any seats left, I can't sit next to Char, ugh. She already chose and there was only one seat left, right next to the brown-haired boy who gave me that emotionless stare earlier at the principals office. Great.
