Jackson is adjusting to his new student life in Korea. He lays down staring at the ceiling trying to sleep.📱. Beep. Beep. A text message from his mom. Jackson smiled and called his mom instead.

"嗨妈妈. 你好吗?和爸爸? I'm doing ok. School is great. People are very nice to me. Basketball is tiring but you know I love it. 我想念你们两个。" Jackson's voice is laced with sadness. He misses his parents so much. He is very close to them and this is the first time he is away from home. He then said his goodbyes to his parents.

💚 A/N: Hi, Mommy. How are you? And Daddy?....I miss both of you. ~ google translate.

He sighed and closed his eyes thinking, 𝐼 𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠. 𝐼 𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑠. 𝐼 𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑦'𝑠 ℎ𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑒𝑑 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑠. 𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑏𝑒 𝑎 𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔 2 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑠. Took a deep breath and texted his best friend, Yibo.

"Sup, Jack! I was about to call you but not sure if you're still up. What's up? Everything ok?" His best friend asked.

"Hey, bro. I'm doing ok...just can't sleep...I miss home." Jackson answered.

"But you emailed me saying everything is doing fine there. Did you make any friends? Are they nice to you?"

"Oh, yeah everything is cool here. The guys are nice...well, except for this dude. But all in all everyone was friendly. I miss home, that's all."

"What? There's someone that doesn't like you? Does he know that everyone likes Jackson Wang? What is wrong with him?" Yibo laughed, obviously teasing his friend.

"I know, right?!? Everyone likes me!" Jackson laughed along with his friend. He continued, "I have no idea why he doesn't talk to me. I sit beside him in every class. I don't really care that much if he continues to ignore me." Jackson and Yibo laughed.

"Maybe he likes you, bro. As in, like you like you. Wait til I tell Lay, and Lucas about this...they'll be as stunned as me. You're the most likable person we know." Yibo continued.

"What do you mean, like me like me? I don't think so...trust me. Did I mention that we sit together in every class? He doesn't even acknowledge my presence, let alone like me that way. This dude doesn't even look my way." Jackson scoffed. "Oh well, there is always a first time, right? I guess, I finally found someone that doesn't like me." Jackson laughed hysterically.

The best friends spent talking on the phone for an hour til Jackson noticed the time. "Oh shit!!! It's almost 1:00 am, bro...I have to go. Aight, tell the boys I said hello. Talk to you next time. Peace!"

He went to the bathroom to wash and get ready for bed. 𝑚𝑎𝑦𝑏𝑒 𝑏𝑒 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢. Does he? Nah, not Park Jinyoung. Not the Prince of JYPE school. Jackson scoffed and shook his head to stop thinking about it.

Ring. Ring.. Jackson hit the snooze button 3x. When the alarm rang the 4th time, Jackson stretched, "Ok. Ok. I'm up." He then looked at the time, and he jumped off the bed. "Oh my gosh!!! I will be late!!!" He then rushed off to take a shower and get ready. Within 20 minutes he was out of his room. Jackson was running to make sure he wouldn't be late.

Jackson made it to his first class with 5 minutes to spare. Youngjae looked at a sweaty and panting Jackson then turned around and raised one of his eyebrows to Jinyoung.
