Jimin's POV
the view on the plane wasn't as exciting as i had expected. i imagined it to be more exciting as i was up in the sky looking at the world below, but all i saw were clouds and a seemingly endless ocean.
god, i'm so nervous. i left south korea for the first time in my life yesterday and i'm extremely nervous for America. my mother was crying when i had to leave her at the airport. i understand why she was crying though. i won't be seeing her for a while, and the first time i go abroad i have to do it alone. as a mother, she's probably worried about me.
the plane ride is supposed to be 13 hours. i don't think i can sit still for 13 hours. i always have to be moving around. staying still is something i simply can't do.
the thought of being in a new country terrified me but also excited me. i couldn't wait to land. i heard many great things about america. i've heard that it is a very diverse country and has people from all over the world living in it. i cant wait to se all the different peoples there are. south korea is full of only koreans so seeing so many different looking people will be a new experience for me.
i'm most excited on meeting new people and making new friends and making memories. i hope the people i'm staying with have someone my age. i only know they have a son and are korean so communicating with them shouldn't be a problem. i just hope they're nice as i've heard of many horrible experiences from other exchange students.
Jin's POV
i am so fucking tired. since i got home from school i've been helping my parents clean the house for the guest that will be coming tomorrow.
i hope he and i will become good friends and that he'll let me baby him like i do with my other friends.
they already know about the student coming to live with my family because i accidentally let it slip. we're all excited to meet someone our age from the country our parents are from. we all also hope he doesn't make fun of how we speak korean.
i'm worried for jungkook since he can't speak korean. his parents never thought it was necessary to teach him and instead spoke to him in english since he was a baby. i wouldn't want him to feel left out because he can't be involved in the conversation.
i felt my phone vibrate in my pocket and i reached for it and checked what it was. it was a message from jungkook.
jungkook:
when did u say the exchange student wuz comingme:
tomorrow, why? and can you please type correctly? i can't stand
when people type like thatjungkook:
fine fine grammar nazi
i was just curiousme:
ah, i seei locked my phone and put it back in my pocket as i heard footsteps coming upstairs toward my room.
the door opens and i watch as my mom pokes her head in first and then completely opens the door. "you're always on that damn phone," she said. i sighed and discreetly rolled my eyes as she said that.
"i'm not always on it," i said, trying to defend myself, "you just see me when i'm on it so it seems as if i'm always using it."
she simply hums in response.
"are you finished cleaning your room?" she asks.
i look around at my room and see it completely clean. i hate when things are disorganised, but i'm also lazy so i put stuff where it belongs so i don't have to pick it up and move around to organise.
i nod and she mutters an okay before leaving.
i sincerely hope the student and i can become close as he will be staying in my room. if we don't get along, living with him would be unbearable.
i pull out my phone and start randomly scrolling through twitter and instagram.
a message pops up from namjoon. oh god. namjoon. mmhhhhh, namjoon. he's so cute, and hot, and smart, and he makes my heart explode. i wish he would notice how i feel for him because i don't even hide it. but he's so dense. i don't understand how someone can be so smart but not be able to tell when someone likes them.
namjoon:
jiiiiiiiinnnNNNN Im BOREDme
that's not my problem oopnamjoon:
