I ,Phailin Sripituksakul have always been a very hyper and talkative person, it runs in the family, rarely do I find myself at a loss of words but it’s not every day that your life is completely turned around by Kim Younghee, I mean who has a pretty girl running into their arms everyday? Certainly not me.
The day had started hectic enough as it is. Barely 6:00am and I was already getting pushed out of the car by Dr.Choi. Lucky I wasn’t left to suffer alone as David and Donovan, or as they were know here Daejoon and Daeyoung, were also getting shooed out of Dr. Choi’s car to suffer morning lecture with me.
Why I had decided on Seoul National University was a mystery even to myself, why they had accepted me was something even i didn’t know the answers to, but as long as I got to spend my Uni years with my two best friends it wasn’t all that bad.
To be honest I was really glad Dr.Choi had agreed to let me move in, I doubt my parents, neither my Mother in the states nor my father in Thailand would have let me study outside the states or Thailand even if my step-father's family lives in Jeonju a whopping three hours away. I will never understand how the would let me go all around Bangkok alone but I have to be near a trusted adult in Seoul, thought I have managed to get myself lost a couple times .... I guess I can kinda understand them. They trust Dr.Choi to take care of me though , I mean me and the boys were diaper buddies so they’ve known him for 19 years at least. Dav, Dono and I are practically inseparable.
6:15 am and Dono and I had lecture at 8:30, time had to be spent somehow so while Dav ,made his way to his lecture hall across campus for his 7 am and we made our way to the campus café. Halfway there we spotted an arguing couple, and thought I was never one to get into other people's business I couldn’t help noticing how rough the man was with the girl and before anyone could really registered it there was a slap and the young woman running our way. I was so shocked that I hadn’t noticed that she was running our way until she collided with me, almost knocking me over.
“죄송합니다” she apologized.
“No problem, no one got hurt, right?” she simply nodded making me wonder if she understood what I had said.
She then started to walk away but seeing that she was probably in no condition to go anywhere, she had already bumped into me what if she ran into the rode.
I had Dono ask her if she wanted to join us for some coffee until she calmed down, he did and thought I only understood some of their conversation, when Dono yelled “Off to that bean juice” I knew she had agreed though she seemed reluctant.
We got to the cafe at 6:35, ordered and then took a table at the back of the cafe.
“Sooo...I’m Phailin Sripituksakul but I go by Manee”
“No you don’t you go by Pie”
“Only your fat ass calls me that” Dono stuck out his tongue at me.
“And this man child is Choi Daeyoung” Dono greeted her properly after probably mentally deciding to act like an adult for at least a while, they talked Dono translating for me. It's not like I'm not learning the language but I don't really understand everything yet. We sat there and drank coffee and tea until 8. Before going our opposite ways Yonghee, as she had introduced herself as, Dono and I all exchanged Kakao ID’s and then went to our class.
Professor Parks Chem class was interesting say the least, Professor Park is in his mid 30s talk as a tree and honestly the way he breaks out in random fits of laughter I'm not sure he's is sane enough to be in a room with dangerous chemicals, but the way he handles the chemicals which such care makes him seem qualified. Even if he started rapping about chemical combinations during the middle of explaining something.
The rest of the classes went by slowly and I was glad once we were home and my freshly showered Apeach pajama clad body hit my clean sheets.
To be honest I was so relaxed that when Obama’s voice chimed “Kakaotalk” it scared the living bejesus out of me but never the less I took my phone off the nightstand and unlocked it to open the message.

Yes I am feeling better. Cute stickers ㅋㅋ
I don't really remember but I think we texted each other half the night and she told me why she had had the argument with her now ex-boyfriend. I suggested that she'd find someone to play the father role at least in front of her family, until she could move to her aunt in France that next year….little did I know I was going to be the one to have to play that role until it was too late.
Authors note
HELLO! 안녕하세요! SAWADEE-KA!
I've finally began to rewrite this after not doing so for over year. I Apollogize (space puns yay) from not updating this sooner and the short chapter(I promise the ones to come will be longer).
You may notice Phailin's last name is different now and she now has a nickname. Well while I wasn’t writing I was in Thailand(fell completely head over heels for the country) So I wanted to make her actully seem Thai.
Translation:
죄송합니다: Excuse Me/Sorry (formal)
안녕하세요: Hello(formal)
안녕:Hello (informal)
김영히: Kim Yonghee
