int - rbw university - the first day of school

■■
the worried girl finally reaches the main gate of the university. the school guard led her the way to the student information board.

she thanked the guard after that. the girl looked at the bulletin board to find which floor could be her room.

"1221......" she mumbled while scanning the board with her fingers.

"fourth floor, turn left, third room." she turns around and saw a blue-haired girl.

byeol yi seems shocked by her visuals, more likely to her deep blue hair.

the girl smiled at her which made her dimples popped out.

"uhm,,, thank you." byeol yi's first interaction with her co-students and she doesn't know how to act.

she bowed politely and starts walking away from the girl. the girl was about to say something but byeol yi is too nervous to hear it and hurriedly walked towards the stairs. as she reach the fourth floor, she followed the blue-haired girl instructions and found her room.

she was hesitant at first, she doesn't know how to act like a real student and interact with other people. she lived her life by herself. the only person she trusts is her mother.

she took a deep breath and finally entered the room. To her surprise, there are only 5 people inside, and one of them is the blue-haired girl.

their eyes met and the blue-haired girl happily waved at her while smiling, flexing her dimples.

the blue-haired girl taps the seat beside her, implying byeol to sit beside her. the blue-haired girl won't stop waving at her which she finds annoying. to make the blue-haired girl stop, she finally sat beside her.

"hi!" the blue-haired girl said as she faces byeol yi's side. byeol yi can't think of any thing to respond to that which she finds herself very dumb.

"Hello," byeol answered politely while slightly bowing her head. her politeness made the blue-haired girl laughed.

she got surprised by the sudden light slap on her thigh. she immediately looked at the blue-haired girl who did it while still laughing. "you're so formal" finally the blue-haired girl composed herself.

byeol can't seem to move on from the blue-haired girl slap, she was the first person to do that to her.

"hey? byeol? byeol yi?" she snapped when she heard her name. "how did you know my name?" byeol yi asked with obviously surprised emotions on her face.

the blue-haired girl pointed at her chest, byeol eyes followed the other girl hands. it landed on her uniform, it was sewed on the left side part of their uniform which she only knows by now. "you got a nice name there." the blue-haired girl complimented her.

"thank you...., you too....." she looked at the blue-haired girl uniform to see what her name is. Jung wheein.
"....wheein" byeol continued.

wheein just smiled at her. for the first in byeol's life, she feels comfortable talking to other people. well, wheein is undeniably charming and friendly, who can resist her in the first place?

they talk while waiting for their other classmates and their prof. "by the way, is this school allows students to dye their hair?" byeol asked wheein and wheein looked at her

wheein stopped for a bit and put her finger on her temple to think.

"actually no, but they do respect the students individuality and personality. as long as the student aren't doing anything to ruin the school's reputation, they don't care." wheein bluntly said. "you should dye your hair too!" wheein excitedly claim. byeol is still not used in having skinship with other people. it creeps her out.

but look at her, letting wheein touch her hair.

"uhm, i'll think about that." byeol respond.

wheein was about to say something but their first prof came in. an almost 6'2 tall woman with long black hair,and byeol can't deny that the prof was indeed gorgeous. everyone fixed their seats and shut their mouth. which byeol find very cool how the students are very respectful towards the new prof.

"goodmorning guys" their prof casually said as she sat in front and smiled at the students.

"im lee dahee, you can call me miss lee or miss dahee or whatever you want to call me. and i am your new class adviser and your psychology teacher" everyone was looking and listening intently at the prof.

byeol find herself also staring at their prof.

"do you understand?" the prof asked and the students answered while byeol is confused because she's too focused on staring at the prof.

she whispered to wheein to ask what their prod just said. wheein was about to answer when their prof suddenly called out byeol.

"you miss.......?" the prof pointed at byeol who is currently slighty leaning at wheein's side.

"moon byeol yi miss" byeol answered and bowed her head.

"stand here and introduced yourself instead of chit chatting with your seatmate." the prof said. the tone of her voice doesnt sound mad nor irritated. more of like a 'im curious about you' kind of feeling.

byeol confidently stood up but she is really nervous. its her first time to introduced herself. but she kept in mind what her mother told her. just be yourself.

she's standing in the front of the class not showing her nervous side. she can also feel the presence of her prof behind her as her prof doesn't moved an inch.

"hi, im moon byeol yi, 17. i enjoy taking photographs and writing songs. i am home schooled since my elementary days and this is my first time attending a real school. i hope we can all be friends. thank you."

byeol didnt say much. she bowed to her classmates and also to her prof who is looking at her until she sat back in her seat.

"you're homeschooled?" wheein asked as soon as byeol sat back down.

byeol just nod at her at face the front as their prof points another student to introduce themselves.

after all the introduction, the prof just told them that they can talk with each other for today to know each other better before starting the proper class.
byeol is listening to wheein, wheein also told byeol about her older sister in the higher grade. byeol felt a little jealous as she badly wants a sister.

"you're lucky you have a sister, since i was young i was wishing for a younger sibling but unfortunately didnt happen." byeol sounded sad while telling that to wheein.

"i knew it, you're an only child, that's why you seems awkward with people." wheein said. byeol was about to say something but wheein cuts her off.

"i can be your sister! younger sister in fact, you're 2 years older than me." wheein excitedly said.

"you're only 15? how come were in the same class?" byeol asked.

"i got accelerated that's all, i don't even know why i got accelerated in the first place." wheein said while playing with her fingers.

"wow, i bet you're an amazing student. and yes, i am happy to have you as my sister" byeol happily claim.

wheein squealed due to excitement which caught the attention of the other students and their prof. wheein bowed as a sign of apology. byeol is quietly laughing at wheein's cuteness.

their class ends and their prof sent them off.

as soon as they got out of the room wheein clings her arm to byeol's. byeol is still adjusting to skinships but if it's wheein she feels comfortable.

byeol was indeed happy about her first day. everything was pretty normal for her, except for the uncomfortable looks of the other students are giving her. but byeol did not that the students was mesmerized by her, and not to mention that she's with the school campus biggest crush.

byeol brushed off all the negative thinking and enjoy the moment with her new found friend/sister.
