"Young mistress, please wake up. It is time for school." a maid said while softly shaking Yookyung. She sat up and rubbed her eyes. She grabbed her clock and stared at it. "6:20 huh?" she thought.
Yookyung got out of bed and headly to the bathroom to complete her daily routine. After about 10 minutes, she stepped out and a maid handed her a uniform. "Thank you." The maid left and she changed. She sat down at her vanity table and brushed her hair. She grabbed her bag and skipped down the stairs.
The mansion had beautiful chandeliers, winding staircases and marble floors. Her father designed it to be Victorian styled mansion, both inside and out.
"Morning dad!" she piped after kissing him on the cheek. She sat down next to him and a maid brought a plate of pancakes, eggs and bacon. "Morning sunshine. Did you sleep well?" her father asked while putting the newspaper down. "Yeah. I got enough sleep."
Yookyung looked at the clock and it was 6:40. "I'm gonna be late!" She wolfed down her food, drank some orange juice and kissed her father goodbye.
"Annyeong ahjusshi! Let's get going!" Her chaffeur opened the door, she got in and he got in the driver's seat. "Running a bit late today huh, young mistress?" She nodded and he understood. He sped off and they arrived at Seoul Elite Prep in less than 20 minutes.
He got out, opened the door for her and closed it. "Komawo ahjusshi. I'll get going then." she said while waving. He bowed as she walked into the school.
"Morning Yookyung." "Looking beautiful as ever." "Morning Yookyung!" People greeted her as she walked down the hallway.
The school was for rich students and boy was it large. Marble was used as flooring, columns supported some of the ceilings, each classroom was a lecture hall with laptops for every student. The cafeteria was like a 5 star buffet and the gym was large enough for 2 small schools to fit all of their students.
She walked to classroom 2-1, which is the class for the smartest and richest students, and entered. She was tackled with a bear hug. "Yookyung-ah!!!! Good morning!" a girl yelled. She broke the hug and smiled. Yookyung pinched her cheeks, "Don't do that again! I nearly had a heart attack because of you!"
The girl stuck her tongue out, "You say that all the time but you still let me do it to you!" Yookyung patted her head and said, "I only let you because you're my best friend Nami." She smiled and they walked to their seats.
The teacher walked in and started his lecture. The only things that could be heard throughout the classroom were the keyboards being tapped and the teacher's voice.
"Okay, class is over! Rememeber to review what we learned today and expect a quiz tomorrow." the teacher said. He packed up and left. Groans were heard and everyone said something along the lines of, "Another quiz?!" "We need a break." "I don't wanna take another quiz." "Just because we're the smartest class doesn't mean we have to constantly take quizzes." "I know right!"
"Let's get lunch instead of staying here. I'm hungry." Nami said while patting her stomach. "Let's go!" They left and walked to the cafeteria. Since it was lunch time, most of the cafeteria was full of students eating and talking.
The two of them walked over to the food and grabbed plates. "Hey! You're gonna eat without me?" a voice said. They turned and a guy ran to them with his arms open. He embraced the both of them and Yookyung choked, "Yah Taewoo. I can't breathe." He let go and gave them an eye smile while apologizing, "Sorry. I was just excited to see you."
"Yah, you're class is right next to ours so why are you excited?" Nami questioned. He rubbed the back of his neck and said, "Because the weekend was boring! I didn't get to see you guys." He pouted and grabbed a plate.
The three of them were the best of friends. They've known each other since they were young children and have been very close ever since. Yookyung considers them her family since her only family is her father. Her mom died when she was young.
They walked around the buffet and started choosing their lunch. Nami put salad, seafood and desert on her plate. Taewoo put steak, mashed potatoes, some salad and cake. Yookyung choose aglio e olio pasta, some steak, salad, and cakes. They walked towards their table and sat down.
Taewoo unrolled his napkin and took out his cutlery and got ready to dig in. "Yah. You're not gonna wait for us to start?" Nami pouted. It was a tradition. Every time they would eat together, they would start at the same time. He put his fork and knife down, "They hurry up and take out your utensils."
Yookyung and Nami took it out. He smiled and they all started eating. "Mmm~, I can never get tired of this food." Yookyung stated while slurping some pasta. A noodle hit her face and she pouted. Nami laughed and wiped her face off. "You're so clumsy!" "Says you! You trip a lot. Even on thin air!" They giggled at their foolishness and continued eating.
The bell rang. "Oh god. It's time for gym." Nami said. She wasn't the greatest at sports. "Great. Time to trip and get hit." Yookyung sighed. She wasn't great either. Taewoo ruffled their hair, "Just check your shoelaces and avoid any kind of balls in your way." They smiled and headed to the locker room while Taewoo headed to the library.
After changing into their gym uniforms, they headed towards the gym. Hoards of students were walking and pushing each other playfully.
They entered the gym and just like Taewoo said, they looked out for any balls in their area and double checked to see if their shoelaces were tied. But that still resulted in them tripping 20 times and losing for their team.
Gym ended and everyone went home. "Young mistress. Are you ready to leave?" the chaffeur asked. She waved goodbye to Taewoo and Nami as they got into their cars. "I'm ready!" He smiled, opened the door for her, closed it, ran to the driver's seat and sped home.
She fell onto her king size bed and stared at the ceiling. "Ahh~, what a tough day." She stared at the ceiling until a maid opened the door, "Young mistress, dinner is being served. You should head down now." Yookyung sat up and thanked her. The maid bowed and left.
Yookyung changed into a normal tank top beneath a sweater with bunny ears and sweat pants. She stood at the door of her room, looked around, smiled and turned off the light while closing the door.
