CHAPTER 1

Driiiing! Driiing! The school bell rings. It's time for class, kids are running everywhere, rushing to their lockers to get their books and get to class before the teacher does.

"Aigooo" I said under my breath as kids rushed down the hall to their class. "Aigoo. Kiyowo" I say again as I see a freshman running in her little feet, even though she almost bumped me.

"Where's the principal's office anyway? Jinjja." I muttered to myself while walking down the hallway, it's empty now. I don't even know who to ask or where to go. The heck!

CRASH!!!

"YA!" He shouted while standing up and rubbing his right shoulder. "Look where you're going next time. Aish, shi..."

"Ne. Mianheyo." I said while standing up then I bowed and left the guy while stretching my right arm. I don't want any trouble since this is my first day. I can feel him standing there still and looking at my back.

"Aish, great way to start the day" I heard him whisper and then he walked away.

5 minutes later, I'm still wandering around. I guess he was right. This is a great way to start your day.

"Hey, you. Why are you still outside?"
I looked back to see who it was, it was a tall bearded guy maybe in his mid 30s. He must be a teacher, I bowed and greeted him.

"Annyeonghaesseyo seonsaengnim. I'm the transfer student from Australia. I was supposed to go to the principal's office but I think I'm lost. Joesonghamnida ,can you help me please?"

"Oh, you must be Miss Jang? Just go straight and go up the stairs, the second door to the left. Good luck, great to have you here"

"Kamsamnida, seonsaengnim! Annyeong!" I waved goodbye and ran off to the principal's office. Thank goodness a teacher came out. I'm freaking late.

Knock, knock!

"Come in!

"Annyeonghaesseyo gyo-gam seon-saeng-nim, I'm the transfer student. Sorry I'm late, I got lost" I smiled bowing to the assistant principal/vice principal.

"Ne, you must be Miss Jang. Your classroom is Class 2-B, I'll take you there. Follow me please" She said and stood up. She went out first and I followed her.

"Kamsamnida ." I thanked her with a wide smile on my face.

"Aigoo, kiyowo. Kwenchana Ms. Jang." She said. After a few walks we stopped in front of a classroom door.

Class 2-B. Finally. The assistant principal knocked on the door and the teacher opened it. It was the same teacher that I asked for help. Omo! So lucky!

"Annyeonghaesseyo, this is Ms. Jang the tranfer student. Please take care of her." She said to the teacher then turned to me and said with the sweetest tone "Ms. Jang, welcome again to Bora High School. I wish you luck and great to have you here."

I smiled and bowed then thanked her. The teacher let me in and let me stand in front of the class.

"Yeorobun, this is your new classmate Ms. Jang. She's a transfer student from Australia. I expect you to treat her well. Ms. Jang, please introduce yourself." He turned to me and said.

"Uh, ne. Annyeonghaesseyo, ireumeun Jang Hyerin-ibnida. It's great to meet you all, I hope to be good friends with everyone. Thank you!" I nervously said and bowed down to greet my classmates.

"Miss Jang, please sit down next to Mr.Seo at the back" the teacher pointed at the back of the classroom.

The guy looked up and my eyes widened when I recognized who he was. "Aish. Wae?!? Great. Shin..." I thought to myself then walked towards the seat.

I sat down next to him "Annyeonghaesseyo, I'm Hyerin. Nice to meet you" I stretched out my hand to shake his but he looked at me sternly then placed his head on his arms and went to sleep.

"Waeyo? Does he not like me?" I thought to myself again then faced forward to listen to the teacher.

Our first class was Science, Our major. I had fun but I don't know why the guy next to me even majored in this subject when he wasn't even going to listen. Aigooo. He's snoring... Aigoooooo... He looks angelic when he's asleep. Don't wake up, okay? Ha!

"Are you in love with me or something?" He lifted his head and turned to face me. "Stop staring please".

"Uh, ne. Mianheyo." I said then looked away. "Goodness, he scared me. What is up with this guy?" I thought to myself, again.

Drriiiing! Thank goodness. Time to get away from him.

A few more hours went by and class was over. A lot has happened but I'm happy to be back in Korea. Time to go home and eat, yaaaassss!! Tomorrow is a new day!
