"Yeoreum?"

'Oh crap'

I slowly turned to my dad with an awkward smile. "Err....hi dad." I rubbed the back of my neck. "Hi. I see you woke up so early." He smirked and I let out an awkward laugh.

"Go get changed. We leave at 7:30. Oh, you have to pack your school uniform, your textbooks and all the school stuff too. You won't make it if you leave your school items here. You'll be late everyday. So, after this you will take a bus to school at 6 a.m. every morning or you'll be late." He informed.

"So I guess I have to walk to the bus stop at 5:50 a.m or less from the house, right?" My dad nodded.

"Don't worry. The bus stop wasn't far from their house. Just a 3 minute walk." He said as he went downstairs. I headed to my room and started to packed my school things.

-----------------------

"Done!" I said proudly as I finished packing all my school items. I looked at the clock, it shows 6:45. 'I should take a shower right now.'

I took my towel and went to the bathroom. I wore my cream blouse and white skinny jeans. I grabbed my phone, my bagpack and my luggage. Before I went out of my room, I looked at my room for one last time.

'I'm going to miss you my bedroom. Wait for me, okay? I'll be back soon as I can make Mrs Lee's son speak again.' I smiled and left.

I struggled with my luggage on the stairs. "Why is my luggage is so heavy?" I groaned. I tried my best not to fall down from the stairs because of this heavy luggage but I failed. I missed the last stairs and I tumbled downstairs.

"Ouch." I said as my dad laughed at me. "You should help me not laugh at me." I pouted as he helped them stand. I stood up and fixed my clothes.

"Let's go." He carried my luggage to his car as I followed him close behind and shut the main door. I locked the door and gave the key to my dad. I went inside the car and turned on radio.

"How do you feel?" Appa asked once he get in the car. "Nervous." I looked at him. "Aww don't be. You've met him before, don't you?" He patted my hair and I nodded.

And then, he started the engine and drove. It took 30 minutes to arrived at Mrs Lee's house.

Once we arrived, Appa told me to go inside the house in front of us because his friends wanted to meet him and he was is a rush. I nodded and took my luggage.

My jaws dropped. The house is so big! More bigger than my house. I looked around and it has a small garden with a bunch of flowers around it.

I saw a maid and she looked at me with a smile as I smile back. She walked towards me and asked. "You must be Miss Yeoreum, right? I'm one of the maids here. My name is Laila. Call me Aunt Laila. Mrs Lee told us about you. You're here to take care of Seokmin, right?" She smile warmly. I nodded.

"Come. Let me bring you to Mrs Lee." She said as I followed her from behind.

Author's POV

Laila brought Yeoreum to the living room. Once they arrived, Laila told Yeoreum to wait in the living room. While waiting, Yeoreum wandered around the living room. It was so big. There's a big and pretty chandeliar hanging in the living room.

"Excuse me, Miss?" Yeoreum turned around and found a man smiling at her. "Can I take you luggage to your room?" He asked politely and Yeoreum nodded. "Oh by the way, I'm Paul Kim. One of the maids here. Just call me Uncle Kim. And I see you've met Laila." He smiled and Yeoreum nodded while smiling.
