"Yuri! Yuri! Faster please! We'll be late!" I heard a loud shout outside the house. I walked to the window and looked at who's shouting while I blowdry my hair.

"Stop shouting! I'll be there in five!" It's Jay. She's with CL and is shouting outside.

She should've texted me instead of shouting there. I shook my head at her doings. I immediately made my way downstairs and grabbed some buttered bread and fruits at the table.

"Yuri!" I looked back at Mama who called me.

"Here." I thanked her and grabbed the box of milk in her hand before zooming out.

"Can I have some?" Jay asked when she saw what I have in my hands.

"No." I stuck my tongue out at her and devoured the breads and fruits on my hand.

"Bad Yuri!" She pouted and CL just laughed at her girlfriend's remark.

They're asking me multiple questions regarding what happened yesterday at the school's entrance.

"So you mean those people are your cousins?" I nodded in agreement. I took the last bite on my banana before throwing the peel.

"Some of them look foreign." She commented.

"They're all adopted by Nayeon-unni's parents."

"Really?!"

"Yup, they're all younger than Nayeon-unni." I answered as I opened the small box of milk.

"Wow, it must be fun having so many siblings." She sighed.

"You have a sister."

"But she rarely go home." She sighed once again.

"You see her almost everyday!" I chimed.

"Yeah, as a coach." Coach Hwang is her older sister but they aren't that close anymore. Ever since Coach Hwang moved out, they became distant.

"Talk to her." I suggested.

"Heck no!" She retorted. She's just shy but I know deep inside she really wants to talk to her.

The bell suddenly rang so we ran to our room, teasing each other along the way. The teacher is already inside when we came but he just ignored us and started teaching.

"Why are you late, you two?" Cleo asked.

"Yuri's so slow."

"Hey! I didn't ask you to fetch me." I pouted.

"Just be grateful that I thought of you when I fetch CL." I rolled my eyes at her.

"Count from 1 to 4." Maybe we'll have some group activities. I waited for my turn and spoke.

"Three!" I saw some of my classmates cheered.

"That'll be presented next week as your final assessment. Good Luck!" And with that, he exited the room.

Some of my classmates called me. They're my group mates, I think. I walked to them and listened to their discussion.

"So, suggestions?"

I just stayed silent the whole time. Trying to process the said information in my mind while thinking of what would be the best project to work on.

"Yuri? You have any suggestion?"

"What if we do something like..." I started to discuss my idea and made some illustrations too. They're listening attentively to my discussion. Some are making notes too.

This one is for our Electronics subject. We're tasked to create a prototype model of something that can help us in terms of communicating.

"So what do you think?" I asked them.
