In the end I couldn't seem to open up.
They were having so much fun—I didn't want to ruin the moment.
"Catch me if u can lozerz" Sanna shouted running with the cold wind.
I looked back—as Jun tried to chase me.
The girls were gone.
I was hallucinating.
Right?
The bell rang and we needed to get back inside.
My nose were runny due to the cold air.
I wasn't feeling too well.
I didn't know if I was sick because of the weather or because of what had happen.
Sanna held my hand and moved it back and forth.
As we headed to our classroom Jun and Chan suddenly stopped at the door.
Maybe because we're a bit late to class—I don't know though.
As Chan moved his back slowly creating a space for me and Sanna to see—
I noticed 3 girls standing in front of the class beside the teacher.
"Ugh—you four again! Come and sit quickly to your desks and listen!" Mr.Kim shouted pointing his fingers at us.
"Stop influencing our class president in you mess" he added
I took a glance of the girls as I sat quickly on my desk. Ignoring Mr.Kim's insults.
Sanna tapped my shoulders lightly.
"New students?" She asked me
I looked again.
I shivered.
My eyes started to tremble with fear—
Help.
Sanna asked if I was okay.
And I wasn't.
"Omg Yumi! My bff" a voice shouted across from me.
I looked up in fear.
And I saw my greatest fear.
I waved slowly—
"Yeri?" I whispered
She looked at me straight in the eyes.
She wore cute pigtails and pink clips to tie her bangs.
She wore her summer uniform. Short skirt for such a cold weather.
She held my shoulders.
"Umm- do you know her?" Sanna asked
Jun stared at Yeri with disgust.
"Aren't you cold?" He asked her
Yeri gave her a wink.
"Uh—Umm-she's uh—.."
"I'm Yeri Jung— I was friends with Yumi since we were in kindergarten—she moved school though half way grade 11—and it looks like she's attending here for her grade 12 year." She interrupted showing off her bag filled with snacks.
"You guys want some? My squad is giving these snacks out for our first day here!" Yeri asked handing our group a bunch of milk cartons and candies.
"She laid all the snacks on our desk and mostly Jun's desk.
It was scattered messily.
A pink box stood out. A small tiny familiar box. It was pink and cute. But it wasn't a drink or a snack.
"Cigarettes?" Sanna exclaimed
"Oh! Woops!"
Yeri quickly grabbed the box of cigarettes and hid it in her skirt pocket.
"You smoke?" Jun asked scratching his head
"Uh—Ye—Yumi does too? Doesn't she?"
Sanna stared at with disgust.
I looked at her pitifully
Jun had his mouth open.
"Yeri come here" her friends shouted
"Aight—-see you guys later!"
Yeri waved goodbye
"I USED too!! I stop don't worry— I smoked in the past when I was stress and all——she was my old best friend I use to smoke with."
"Your old friend?" Sanna asked
"Well—technically—yea"
An old friend.
