8:09 am

I woke with the shrill sound of my alarm echoing in my ears and shaking every cell in my body. Damn this thing is loud.

I groaned and buried myself further into my pillow to block out the sound but that didn't work.

Finally giving in I, got off the bed and groggily walked to my bathroom. I had actually gotten used to living alone. I felt more at peace.

I poured milk into my bowl of cereal in my extremely mini kitchen and began eating while scrolling through my phone. 

Once I was done, I picked my backpack from where it was lying on the couch surrounded with a bunch of papers and my glasses. I stuffed my homework into my backpack and zipped it and slung it over my shoulder, put on my shoes sneakers and left the house after locking it behind me.

I was guessing since my landlord was old, he probably installed a cheap elevator which is why there was a big red board saying 'Out of service for repair'. Since I wasn't very late I took the stairs.

It was a beautiful July morning with birds chirping and the sun shining making the just watered plants glow. I took a deep breath feeling refreshed and continued walking. I looked at my wrist and stared at the bracelet, a sense of nostalgia filling my heart.

Someday, I'll find you.

I was taking notes in class when I felt someone kick my chair from behind. I mentally sighed already knowing who it was.

"Hey ugly!" Seul whispered and the rest of the gang laughed with her. When I didn't respond they kept silent for a while before they kicked my chair harder than last time. I wobbled with my chair but firmly put my feet on the ground to avoid falling in a quiet classroom.

Then an evil idea came to my mind.

I saw Seohyun giggling with Seul planning on when she was going to kick my chair again. I sneakily slid to the edge of the chair and that's when Seohyun kicked again.

And oh boy did she regret it.

The chair fell along with me with loud crash making all the eyes on the be fixated on me and Seohyun's foot that was in the air showing she was behind it.

Turns out the teacher gave the four the job of cleaning the toilets all around campus while Seohyun had detention plus toilet cleaning duty.

Nevertheless, I knew things weren't going to go smoothly after school.

4:58 pm

"This should teach you your lesson." Mina said kicking me one last time and then leaving.

I breathed heavily and tried to stand up despite the bone breaking pain that shot through my body. I picked my backpack off the ground and began limping home.
