Brown University: Chap. 2
Alex Who?
“Yah! Alex! You’re late!” Seo screamed at Alex. “I know I know I’m sorry, the cab is just like a turtle. There’s a traffic jam.”
“Let’s Go” Alex says to Seo. They walked from right there to Brown since Seo’s Apartment is near the university. Seo Hyun has
been her best friend for a year now. They just clicked in an instant knowing that they are both Korean. Seo has been leaving by
herself since High School. She said that her family owns a construction firm in Seoul. She has an older brother just like Alex but
Seo is not used to talk about her family even with Alex. All she said is that, she went in NYC to be independent. From time to time
she visit her family in Korea, she asked Alex for like a million times to go with her but Alex doesn’t want to.
“Seo, have you finished the drawing for Prof. Scott due this afternoon?” Alex asked Seo while checking her bag. “Is it today?
Shoot! I forgot! Otoke?” Seo says. “ayy, don’t worry. I got you covered. Tada! I made two. I know you will forget to make one.”
Alex says while handling Seo the extra drawing. “Gosh! Alex you’re a life saver! I never know what I’ll do without you!” Seo gushed
and hugged Alex. “Nah, anything for my bestfriend. So how’s Korea?” Alex asked.
Seo visited her family last week and she just got back. “well same old same old. Koreans everywhere.” Seo says then Laughed.
“Haha! Very funny!” Alex mocked her. “No really how’s your family?” Alex asked curiously. She can’t hide it. She got this curiosity
with her mother land and the people there. “well when I got there, my brother picked me up. Gosh! I missed him big time. We’re
pretty close you know just like you and Jong. He lets me hanged out in his office in the company. And oooh! I almost forgot, He got
this super good looking officemate.” Seo is blushing now. “Really, describe him?” alex is prying. “ah ah!” Seo moving her head
left-right. “I’ve got better than that.”
Alex POV
Seo hands out her sketch book and flipped it open. There it is a rough sketch of the guy. I looked at it and studied it carefully. He
looks good I said to my mind. Not my type though. “He looks good Seo”. We are now entering our classroom. Prof. Scott is not here
yet. So I continue our chat. “So what did he do?”I asked seo. Then like a light bulb Seo is so bright so bright explaining and talking.
“well he is a junior engineer there. Oppa said that he is his former classmate. His name is Jung Yong Hwa. Oppa also said that he
has a band way back in high school. Can you believe this a Lead Vocalist and Guitarist. Aahhh!” Seo gushed while holding both of her
hands to her face. She really like this guy. Seo, I think she’s in love. Then just like that she questioned herself. “Have I ever been
in Love?”
