HERMOSA

Jaebum woke up early in the morning and his mom already cooked a breakfast. "Where's dad?" He asked as he took a seat in front of his mom. "Your dad is out at the city. He has some work to do." His mom replied. "If that, what you say yesterday is real...then what are you going to do now?" His mom asked as she put a fried egg on Jaebum's rice. Jaebum did not answer and just looked down on the rice. His mom sighed deeply. "Jaebum-aa, I think, you better finish your school. You haven't graduate properly since you skip school a lot to go dance." His mom said.

Jaebum thought for a while. Maybe, his mom suggestion is not that bad. He gathered some strength to look up at his mom and smiled. "Sure, from now on...I'll listen to all what you have to say. Because mom words are always true. I'm sorry that I lied to you that I go to school even though I actually went somewhere to dance." Jaebum confess. "It's okay. I know that it was your dream. You never feel shy to show people how talented you are and I feel proud of you. It just a small mistake that slip and you just not lucky enough to stay there. I'm sure later, you will be more better and popular than now." His mom said encouraging her son more.

Jaebum smiled genuinely and ate the food deliciously.

Jaebum walked into the class and everyone darted their eyes to him. "Oh, you are Im Jaebum right?" The teacher who has a lesson in the class said. Jaebum nodded. "Okay, class. This is Im Jaebum. He will be in your class starting from today." Said the teacher and Jaebum bowed to the teacher and the whole class. When he bowed, he could clearly heard everyone whispered, 'isn't he from that group got7?'.'yeah, i heard that he was kicked out from the group.' .'definitely, he is the black hole in the group.' .'true, got6 is better.'

He took a deep breath before looking up to the whole class again. He smiled to them. "Okay, Im Jaebum please take a sit at any empty seat at the back. The whole row is empty." Said the teacher. Jaebum nodded as he looked at the back row. His face suddenly became confused. 'what is the teacher mean by empty? there's a girl sitting at the back row. alone.' But Jaebum just shrugged away his thought.

He made his way to the back but before he could do it, the teacher spoke. "Make sure you didn't wear those accessories tomorrow. This is school. You have to follow the rule.". "Yes, sir." Jaebum said as he bowed. The moment he went down the aisle, he could saw everyone were still whispering her and that and some girls were admiring just how handsome he is. He took a seat next to the girl who was lonely at the back.

He looked at the girl. She was sleeping soundly. Jaebum couldn't saw her face since it was covered with her long hair. 'why is she alone?' He thought again.

The bell rang and everyone were rushing out from the class to the convenience store. Jaebum didn't move from his seat place and just took out his own packed food that his mom made for him since his mom was worried that people will done something bad to her son if he went to the store. Jaebum coincidentally saw the girl still sleeping. He once again felt confused, 'is she has no friends? no one tried to wake her up.' He thought.

He shook the girl and the immediately opened her eyes. She stood up straight and Jaebum took  that chance to look at her face and then her name tag. 'well, she is cute for first impression and she got nice name. Kim Dahyun.' He thought again. Dahyun looked all around the class and found out that it was empty. She looked at Jaebum and almost died from surprised. "Aren't you going to eat?" Jaebum asked. 

Dahyun remained silent. Then, she pointed at herself as she talked. "A-Are you...talking to me?" Jaebum nodded. "Yeah, it's only you and I in this class." Jaebum said. Dahyun slowly getting up from her sit place. Jaebum only observing all her movement and anticipate on her next move. She put her hand in her pocket and sighed heavily. "Forget to bring your money?" Jaebum asked and Dahyun looked at him totally surprised. 'how did he know?' Dahyun thought.

Jaebum took a chair from another table and patted the seat. "Sit here. We can share." Jaebum said. "W-Who are you...actually?" Dahyun asked. Now, its Jaebum's turn to  shock. Actually he didn't care when Dahyun didn't freaked out after seeing Jaebum, that way he is sure that Dahyun isn't his freaking crazy fans and looking at her totally blank expression convinced Jaebum that she is also not a crazy haters. 

But, it totally surprised him when Dahyun don't even know him. "I'm Im Jaebum. I just move in today. You probably not realized it since you were sound asleep." Jaebum low key introduced himself to Dahyun as he tried his best to stay cool. Dahyun nodded as she sat at her chair again. She stared at the chalkboard in front of the class. Jaebum felt a little disappointed that Dahyun didn't took his offer to share his food together.

He sighed and ate his lunch alone and quietly. Slowly, Dahyun began to feel sleepy again and after a while, she drifted to sleep. 'is she really this kind of person? i thought that she is someone who was bright and happy. but now i think, she is just some boring person.' Jaebum thought as he ate and sometimes glanced to Dahyun while munching his food.
