your alarm snapped you out of your dreams. It was 06.45 a.m. on a Monday morning and for you, it was the first day at a new school. You just moved with your dad to this city, cause he got a new job here. "Good morning little bird. Get ready for school. Breakfast is ready in 15", he said, when he came to your room. "Yes, thanks dad." You took a quick shower, dried your hair and put on tour new school uniform and your classic yellow converse. This was new for you. You never wore an uniform before. At your old school, you could decide what you want to wear, but here it is a bit different. You went downstairs, heading to the kitchen, where your dad finished preparing breakfast. "i hope you're hungry", your dad smiled, while handing you a plate with scrambled eggs, bacon and toast with baled beans. "Thank you, for this amazing breakfast", you said and took a seat at the table and started eating.
"Are you nervous? I can come with you, if you want?" "No, thanks. It's also your first day. You should be at time, at your new work." He gave you a warm smile. "Do you want to take the car?", he asked. "No it's fine. The school is just 20 minutes away from here with the bus."
You finished breakfast, gave your dad a kiss on his cheek, grabbed your bag and left the house. It was a quite warm morning. The sun rays made the yellow and red leaves shine bright. You took out your headphones ans started listening to your favourite song, while waiting for the bus at the bus station. You took your book 'mortal engines' out of your bag. It was the favourite book of your mother, and she read it with you a thousand times. Reading this story reminded you of the good all times, back in Busan ...
When you finally arrived school, you headed right in. You were looking for the way to the principals office, when suddenly ... *bang*
When suddenly someone bumped into you. But instead of falling on the floor, he quickly grabbed your hand and turned you around, that the person fell on the floor and you on him. "Ouch" you said quietly, trying not to attract much attention. With a shocked glare, you looked at the person, your hands pulled to your chest and persons hand around your wrist. Your faces only an inch away, looking him directly in his dark brown eyes. "I'm sorry, did i hurt you?" He laid on the ground, looking at you, worried. "uhmm... i- i- no i'm not hurt. I'm sorry, i was standing in your way", you stood up fixing your clothes. You looked around on the floor, to find your book. It laid there, next to the lockers. You knelt down to pick it up, when the boy, who bumped into you, picked it up for you.
"I'm sorry again. I'm Soobin. Choi Soobin." "Mortal engines, huh? What an interesting title", he said handing the book to you. "Yes this is my favourite book. I'm y/n. I'm new here.", you bowed. He smiled benignly. "Nice shoes by the way." You looked down to your feet. "Thank you. They are very comfortable .. I- i was looking for the principal's office. Do you know the way?", you stuttered. "Uhmm, yes of course. Just go along the hallway and the last door on the right side is his office", he said. "Tha-", you got cut off. "Hey Soobin!" A boy said his name, when we walked to you. "Stop hurting cute girls!" he said. You got reddish by the look he gave you, scanning you from head to toe. "stop, beomgyu", soobin rolled his eyes, giving him a light punch on his shoulder. "Hey, are you new here?", beomgyu couldn't let his eye of you. "...but i think i know you." He scanned you again.
"Uhmm...yes, I'm new here. But i have never seen you. I was just on my way to the principal's off-" someone cut you off, again. "Hey beomgyu, hey Soobin", a girl, with long dark hair and dark brown eyes said. They sighed. "Hey, Kandra", they said in a suffering voice. "Why are you talking to this no-one?" She looked at you giving you a disgusted look. "Kandra! Watch your mouth. You don't even know her", Soobin defended you immediately. "Anyways... I have to go, it was nice to meet you all." You left, feeling very uncomfortable in this whole situation. "wait...", beomgyu said. But you just ignored him. You knocked at the principal's door and he asked you to come in. "Good morning, mister Chang." You greeted him. "Good morning. You must be y/n." "Yes sir." "Please. Sit down. You need to fill out some documents." Ten minutes later, after a lot of ordinary paper work.
"Okay miss y/n. You can go to your class now. You're in the class 10 B. It's the third class on the left side. Have fun and if you have any problems or questions, you can come to me or to your class teacher." "Thank you sir." You stood up and made your way to your new class. First period already started. You took a deep breath before entering the room. You knocked at the door. "Uhmm, excuse me." you opened the door. All of the students turned around and stared at you. "I'm a new student here and i was put in this class." "Oh of course. You must be y/n. Welcome to the class 10 B. I'm Miss Yi. Please, take your seat there", she directed you to the seat next to the window in the middle row.
You sat down and took out a notebook and your pencil case. You tried to focus on the teacher, when the person next to started talking to you. "hey. what a coincidence to see you here." You turned to the left and saw a light brown haired boy, sitting next to you, giving you a pretty smile. "oh, uhmm hi. Uhmm... beomgyu?" you asked, not sure, if this was his name. "Yes I'm Beomgyu. Soobins friend", he said still smiling. "Oh i remember. I'm y/n." "wow, this is such a beautiful name", he said. Your eyes met and by the look at his eyes you started blushing, hiding it with your hands in front of your face. He giggled at your reaction and turned back to focus on the teacher. The school bell rang. It's break time.
