Third Person

The next day after the park fight, Keung got ready for school. He hoped that the new American kid will have classes with him at school so he can talk to him. But what if he shared that class with him along with his other friends, Cheng, Liang and Zhuang? That was Keung's main concern. That would build up even more tension and he'll have trouble trying to befriend the new kid.

He went to his friend Xing's house, which is ten minutes away from his own, so he could walk with him.

He and his friends live fairly close to school, with the walking distance averaging around 5 to 15 minutes.

As he arrived to his friend's, he waited for about two minutes before Xing walked out of his house.

Xing raised his hand up and greeted his friend. "Hey, what's up, my man!"

"Hey, Xing," Keung greeted back. "What's new?"

"Eh, same as usual. You know, I heard that the new kid goes to our school," said Xing as they started walking.

"Really?" Keung asked. He had to refrain himself from getting happy that his chances of talking to the new kid had increased. He is always happy to make friends, so he immediately knew Dre wasn't bad the minute he first saw him.

"Yeah. I doubt Cheng will be too happy about it. I couldn't understand that he didn't like foreigners."

"Me either," replied Keung. "He really didn't have to be rude about it. But I doubt Cheng really want to go through with it. Master Li did told us to be merciless with our enemy and Cheng didn't want to dishonor him."

"I hear ya," said Xing.

The two made it to school and found their friends Cheng, Liang and his girlfriend Zhilan, Zhuang, Xiang, Chunhua, Feng, Biyu, and Song laughing away.

"Hey, guys," Keung and Xing greeted.

"Feng is telling us his stupid jokes," Cheng laughed. "But I can honestly say Xiang's laugh is funnier than the joke."

Liang piped in, "We all have that one friend whose laugh is funnier than the joke and Xiang is that friend."

"We can all relate to that," Zhuang agreed.

"What kind of joke?" asked Keung, smiling in amusement.

"Some kind of weird sex joke," Biyu chimed in, rolling her eyes.

Keung and Xing looked at each other and snickered.

"I can almost hear it," said Xing, while Keung nodded in response.

"I don't really get them," replied Chunhua with a confused look on her face.

"Me either," added Zhilan.

"I have a theory for this topic," announced Song. "Female brain is wired differently than male, so basically, in my opinion, that provided an ability for males to understand certain jokes while women, well... they don't really understand them."

"Oh yeah! I heard about them," said Liang.

"There's such things as too weird of a joke that even Feng can't tell them," added Keung.

They laughed before the bell rang. They all parted to their class and Keung was hoping he'll see Dre in at least one of his class.

He went to his first period class, which is history. He didn't have any of his close friends in that class, so maybe there's a chance.
