Transfer Student

THREE

     The weekend has started and I still have not called or texted Taeyang yet...I still don't know a good place to take a Korean for their first American meal... Now that I think about it I need to show him a restaurant soon because the only thing he has been eating is ramen. Then it came to me, Skyline Chilli!!!! Skyline Chilli is (in my opinion) the best restaurant in Ohio.

Text messages...

Ji Soo:  Hey I know where we can eat.

Taeyang:  Does it have kimchi? 

Ji Soo:  NO. It doesn't...It has chilli.

Taeyang: Oh, ok, see you tomorrow.

Sunday...     

     We met up on the top of the hill we live on, and I felt uncomfortable because he looks and acts like me when I am with him, his black hair, plain outfit, and emotionless face.  I stare at him for about five minutes thinking about how his eyes look like my first loves eyes from middle school.

     "Earth to Ji Soo" he says waving his hand in my face "Oh, sorry...lets go." We start walking down the steep hill and not more than five minutes later he starts complaining about how his legs hurt... "If they hurt so much then go over there and sweat to death instead!" I say losing my cool "Well they don't hurt that much." he says under his breath.

     Once we got there he looked confused "What's wrong?" I say looking at his confused face "What are the Cincinnati  Reds"  he says looking at all of the posters on the wall..."They are a baseball team. They are pretty big here...Anyway let's sit down." I say before he asked anymore questions. "Are you ready to order?" the waiter says with a smile "Yes I would like a three-way." I say then looking at Tae 

"Well, um I will um...I will have the same thing as her."

"Do you not know how to read English?!" 

"No. No I do not." He says firmly 

"I guess that's another thing I'll have to teach you." I say... We get our food and the first thing he says is "Where are the chopsticks?" I start to get aggravated and point to the fork sitting by his plate "That is called a fork, I am sure you know that because they exist in Korea too!" I say sarcastically. He sighs then starts eating. We finish the meal without saying a word. After I pay for the meal we walk outside and he asked the most random question ever... "What is on thursday... everyone keeps talking about it..." I was confused at first, but then I realized that he was talking about the fourth of July.  

"Oh, it's the fourth of July, it's the day America published the declaration of independence."   

"How do you celebrate?"

"Well in my family we used to light sparklers and run around, but ever since my mom died my dad never wanted to do it again..."  

"Let's do it on Thursday then." 

     My eyes widen thinking about how my dad will react, then I relax remembering that he won't be home Thursday... "Okay, but how are we going to by them...We are still minors." I say knowing that my dad isn't going to buy them "My mom can buy them." he says with a fake smile...

Monday...

     I wake up at 8am to my dad dad walking in drunk as always, but I notice something different (He isn't being violent) I think to myself. That thought only lasted until I realize that school was going on for an extra month unlike other schools... (I have to go to school) I think to myself.

     I went to go get ready then I remembered that we weren't allowed to wear black this week because Thursday was the fourth of July...The first week of July I try to express myself because it was the week my mom died...So, I wore a lacey white dress, black flats, and a long, angel blue cartagain. l also braided my hair in two pigtails, and even whore a little make up (I don't look like the same person) I think to myself as I walk out the door.

Tae's pov...

     I woke up and put on some nice clothes, because the first week of july is my dad's death anniversary week. The outfit I wore was a white t-shirt with an angel blue plaid long sleeve shirt and dark blue jeans. I even put gel in my hair to get my bangs out of my eyes... this reminded me of my first love. (The happy days are gone now) I think to myself. As I walk out the door I see        Ji Soo. "Wow" I say without realizing

Ji Soo's pov... 

     I wait out in Tae's yard, because it just became a habit. He opens the door and the first thing he says is wow. I look at him and a sudden realization hits me. My fingers start to twitch and my eyes start to water. ( He is my first love) I think to myself. "Are you ok?"  He says. I wipe away my tears "It's the allergies...don't worry."

At school...

    We arrive at school and everyone is staring at us... more than usual. I over hear some girls talking " Are they dating?" one girl says. I look over to Tae and gasp. "What's wrong?" He said looking worried. "Our outfits are matching! " 

A/N pov...

     They spend the whole day with people staring at them...and what made it worse was that all of their classes where together. But right at the end of the day a new girl comes...

Tae pov...

I walk out of the classroom and feel a weird tension  in the air...Then I see her... "Eun i!!!"

Sorry I was gone for so long... my computer broke and once I got it fixed it was time for testing at my school. I hope you liked this chapter. I will try to update a least three times a month!!
