My turn
better yet worstwhen i reached school i was called by the principal .. what did i do wrong ? it's just my second day ? i nervously went, i was always a troublemaker "come in" he said replying to my knocking "good morning, you've probably met the new student" he said smiling
i felt relieved though i didn't really do anything bad, but then I realized he said new student "yeah" i said waiting for him to get to the point "he is not that good in korean yet, and has learned everything in English until now" he continued still not getting to the point "i thought so, but why are you telling me this ?" i couldn't wait, there must be something behind this "his father and i are close friends and he asked me to do something"
seriously talking to this old guy is the hardest thing ever, as someone with no patience i was proud of myself for enduring this "he told me to find someone that can tutor his son after school, his son was always smart and he doesn't want his level to get lowered, you're the perfect person for this for you can speak english"
i didn't want to accept this using any excuse but i couldn't find one "but i teach english" he stood "don't worry just explain the basics he'll connect them with what he learned" but .. but .. "of-course this won't be for free his father is going to pay you as much as you want, a teacher he sees everyday will know better" he continued, i needed that extra money and he knows it, there was no way out of this.
"everyone to their seats" i said "i want someone to read the first paragraph, it's a piece of cake" all of their eyes avoided me as i scanned for someone, when i looked at the new guy he was in the same pose but this time staring at me "well you're from canada this should be nothing for you" i said, this time i was the one avoiding his striking stare
"sure" youngjae said as he stood and read coldly, everyone was amused at his reading as if i never read in front of them, i lived overseas too guys ? then came my turn, he was just reading but his voice was very .. smooth ? he finished and sat before i realized it and i was just there, thinking about how not only his face is beautiful but also his voice, which was better, yet worst.
