Third Person's View

"Oh my gosh is that Jaerin? Wow, and aren't those the boys participating in Produce 101 with Woojin, Daehwi, and Jihoon?" The group of girls murmured as Jaerin, Jihoon, Daehwi, and Woojin got out of the black van Daniel and Seongwoo drove them in.

"That's Daniel and Seongwoo! How is Jaerin so close to them?!" Another girl murmured.

"For your information, Jaerin's now officially a trainee too, so she deserves to hang with us and be close with us. We'll get going, now. Bye, Jaerin!" Daniel said to the group of girls and waved to Jaerin.

"Hey? Isn't that the boy who was seen with Jaerin the other day? So he's Daniel!"

"Oh~ they've already been close even before produce 101!"

"Yeah, er~ this is a little awkward," Jaerin whispered to Daehwi's ears.

"I got this," he paused. "Excuse me, everybody. We may be trainees, but in school, we'd like to be known as normal students."

"Thanks, Daehwi."

"No problem."

~•~

"Okay, class. Today i'm going to be assigning new desk arrangements since a few of you keep talking to each other. I'm looking at you, please stop talking to Jihoon, Yuna," Ms Kim announced.

"I won't need to change too many of you. But i want Jaerin sitting next to Yerin and in front of Jihoon. As for you, Yuna, i'd like you to sit over there, next to Daehwi and behind Woojin. Daehwi, you can move next to Woojin and so, Yuna, you will sit alone so that you do not get to talk to many people."

"What?! Ugh~ fine~" Yuna groaned as she walked to the table.

"Hey Jaerin!" Jihoon called to get the girl's attention, while Yerin added to his sentence. "Get your butt here now!"

"Hi."

"Hi?! What's wrong?!" They shouted in unison.

Ms Kim cleared her throat. "I assume you wouldn't want me to change your seats again?"

"No, miss," Jaerin said.

"As i thought. Now Jaerin, since you, Yerin, and Jihoon are talking, why don't you answer this question on the whiteboard? What is x?" Ms Kim asked Jaerin.

"Since x is formed by the square root of 196, x is 14. Ms Kim, i don't mean to be rude or anything, but these questions are a bit... how do i put this? They're a little simple for our level. You've said that you want us to be as good as honors class students should be, but then again, these questions you've been giving us these past few weeks were and are still too simple. I'm sorry if i offended anyone, but this is just my opinion. Ms Kim, maybe you would possibly take this comment to mind and find several other difficulty levels? Maybe on some days we'll do challenging questions, and some day we'll do medium and easy questions? Thank you for listening to my opinion, Ms Kim," Jaerin said to Ms Kim and bowed, then sat back down on her chair, flipping open a thick storybook she had been reading.
