A new day has started in the city Seoul, a new year for those who are starting schools, colleges and jobs. In this city there are different types of family; some rich, some poor, some happy and some with problems. Well in this story we will be concentrating on mainly two families which come from two different types of background who live in different side of the city. One family which lives in the richer side; has lots of property and business and is known as the richest families in the whole country while the other is the one that lives on the poor side who struggles everyday to earn a little money so they can pay all the debt their family has taken. The family is in so much debt that the kids in the family who are just starting high school have to start doing part time jobs.

 

These families are the Song and Min family; the Song’s are the richer ones while the Min’s are the poor one. A new day has started in both house, the kids in the Song’s family who aren’t honestly kids anymore but adults who have already started their career a few years back one as a surgeon while the other as the vice chair of their own company, are already starting to get ready for their work while their house maids are preparing them their things and food, while in the Min family the youngest daughter who is starting her senior year today is preparing meals for her family before going to school because she knows it well her parents are dead tired after working overnight so she is making breakfast thinking how it’ll make less burden for them as they won’t have to worry about cooking food early in the morning after a tiresome night. She was happily making breakfast that she didn’t notice a presence behind her.

 

 “What are you doing this early in the morning?” She snaps out of her thought and looks behind her to find her mom still in her sleepy state yawning and stretching making her smile.

 

“Good morning, omma. Did you sleep well?”

 

“Umm I did but what are you doing this early in the morning?”

 

“I’m preparing breakfast for you and appa. I thought you’ll be too tired so I prepared it. What do you think?”

 

“Aigoo, Uri Han RI has grown up so much that she even prepared meal for her parents.” She said while patting her daughter’s cheek making her smile.

 

“Of course I am starting my senior year today, why won’t I be grown up?”

 

“Mwo? It’s already the day you start school.” That’s only when Mrs. Min notice her daughter in her school dress. “Mianhe Han RI you’re father and I were too busy to notice the day.”

 

“Aaaa gwenchana. It’s not a big deal.” She said waving her hands. “You’re already doing too much working overtime and providing whatever I need even in this financial crisis so that’s enough for me.” Mrs. Min was near to exploding in tears but thought against it and hugged her daughter tight.

 

“Uri Han RI has really grown up.”

 

“Umm Omma I can’t breathe.” They both pull away. “I need to go now, I’m getting late.”

 

“Alright, have a great day.”

 

“Ok! Bye.”

 

Meanwhile, in the Song residence every member of the family is in the dining table; Mr. Song in the head chair, at the right side is Mrs. Song while the boys are sitting on the left side. The room is really quite beside for the sound of fork and knife hitting the plates.

 

“So, how’s everything going on with you two? Is everything alright with your jobs?”

 

“Yes, dad everything is alright there’s few surgeries I have been assign today otherwise it’s nothing much.” Mr. Song nods his head at the reply of his eldest son Hyun Woo.

 

“What about you Joong ki?” The person in the conversation snaps his head towards his father unknown about what they were talking. Mr. Song takes a deep sigh. “What were you thinking about that you didn’t even notice we were talking? You’ve been really lost nowadays. ”

 

“Sorry dad my minds still occupied by some of the works.” That wasn’t fully truth Joong Ki has been thinking more about his girlfriend or more specifically ex-girlfriend than his work. He and his girlfriend had recently broken up because she had got a chance to work for one of the famous designing company in Paris and she didn’t want any obstacle while making her career which happens to be their long distance relationship.

 

 

“Next time please forget your work in the office or somewhere else while having family time, alright.” Mr. Song said in a joking manner to which Joong Ki couldn’t help but send a small smile towards. Hyunwoo being his big brother and best friend knew it well what was bugging him so he was little worried about him. Sensing his big brother’s stare Joong Ki looked at him and gave him a reassuring smile. After the meal was over the three of them headed to their own car and momma Song came by the door to see them off. One by one she bid them goodbye telling them to take care and their lunch at time, she waited by the door waving her hand until the cars were all gone. Joong Ki was on the backseat preparing for today’s meeting while Han RI was going to school. On the way she saw an old woman with the stop sign trying to the little kids cross the road, she went to the woman and asked for the sign board and went in the middle of the road and held the sign halting all the cars one of them happens to be the car Joong KI was ridding. When the car came to halt e couldn’t help but look forward. He saw a school girl holding sign but not her face as she had turned at the side signaling the kids to cross the road. He didn’t know why but he was leaning forward to get closer look at the girl.

 

“Something wrong, sir?”

 

“Huh ah. Nothing.”  ‘What the hell is wrong with you?’ thought Joong Ki while rubbing his temple and going back to whatever he was doing before. The children had already crossed the road safely so Han Ri headed to the side of the road where the kids and the lady were waiting and Joong Ki’s car headed to its destination.

 

“Here” She said while giving the sign board back to the lady.

 

“Thank you so much for the help, god bless you.” She thanked her went away leaving Han Ri to move on her destination. Han Ri walked a little further and was faced with her school. She took a deep breath.

 

‘New day, new year, new class I hope this year will go on just peacefully like always.’ She thought to herself before heading to her school but little did she know that this will not go peacefully like she predicted.
