The morning slot was based on one purpose only; breaking the ice. Minus me, Sohee, Yoongi and Jin; the other members were completely strangers to us. To me at least. Also excluding Sohee, they were quite friendly.

For example, Haera from Incheon Girls' High School shared the same hobby as I am; reading. Jackson Wang, a transfer student from Hong Kong doesn't stop showing off his 'awesomeness' to everyone. He went ecstatic when he found out we're both fluent English speakers. He has good humors though.

The facilitators decided to let us rest a bit early. Thank God, I am starving already.

I haven't seen my brother and the rest yet, but we have the opportunity during lunch anyways.

"Oh my god." The words escaped my mouth as soon as I see the people lining up for the food. That's a long queue!

"Ashley!" I turned around. Hoseok and Sunmi waved at me. Hoseok carried an extra tray, meaning that he picked up my share for me. "Thanks, oppa! You're a lifesaver."

"Do you mind if I sit here?" I spoke. Jin lifted his face and rather puzzled to see me. Well, I did say no to his invitation earlier.

I anxiously waited for his answer. Of course, they were staring at us. Particularly, him. "Uh... I guess I'll go find another spot-"

"No, that's okay." He grabbed my wrist. My heart skipped a beat from the sudden contact. Uh oh. I felt heat rushing to my cheeks. He assured me with a warm smile. "Just stay."

"Uh... Taehyung?" Yoongi waved his hand in front of Taehyung. His expression was readable. He was
