Diary of a Mandu

Dear diary,

Nayeon's going to this school... I can't seem to remember what the name was, but it's nearby Chundak. She says it's horrible and that she nearly cried. I couldn't imagine how hard it is for her there.

She nearly transferred to my school, but apparently, my school would only accept transfer students up until last month, which was why Jun was able to our school. I don't talk to him though. He was in our class for a short time before transferring to another class and I still didn't understand why. 

Oh well. It wasn't my problem or situation to worry about.

Anyway, back to Nayeon. As I was saying, she's having a hard time there and I just wish she was here in my school instead. I always imagined what we'd be able to do together and now all of those dreams, imaginations, they'll only stay that way. Because she's not going to come my school and whose fault is that? The school. Why can't they accept another student? Is it that hard for them to accept a new paying student? Isn't that what this school is after in the first place? Money?

It's too bad fate can't bring us together. Oh, well, I just hope Nayeon will be okay in her new school.

We chatted in our LINE chat group and Nayeon told us she cried because she just couldn't handle the school. It has no discipline, the teachers don't care and so does the students so she doesn't really learn anything. She hates it and she's telling her parents she wants to transfer out. She says she's either going to Bongjuk (an all girls school) or going back to Chundak. If she goes back to Chundak, I'll feel like I'm the only one left out. Like, everyone else, well, most of them, are there in Chundak and I'm here in this school. I'm kind of okay with it now since I'm kinda used to a few things but I still miss Chundak a lot.

I hope they won't ever forget me. Because I certainly won't. I will never forget them. They're too precious to be forgotten. Question is: am I important to them?

Love, 
Mandu
