Jiyeon's POV:
Teacher: How is everyone doing today?
Students: Gooood!
Everyone stood up, greeted the teacher and bowed, then sat down again.
Teacher: How are our new students?
Kingkas: Good!
Teacher: And how are you Jiyeon? Coming all the way from the States...
Youngmin: You're from the states?
Jiyeon: Yea.
Youngmin: So you can speak english?
Jiyeon: Mhm.
Youngmin: Whoa~
Kwangmin just smirked.
Minwoo: Psh, I can speak english too....
Teacher: Oh really Minwoo, then you and Jiyeon whould have a competition!
Minwoo: I'll win this easily...
Minwoo and I had to stand infront of the class, and the teacher walked to the back. He asked us to translate sentences to korean. Best of 3.
Teacher: I'll start with something easy. The cat ran away from the house.
I raised my hand, but I wasn't fast enough. Minwoo beat me to it, and the teacher gestured to him.
Minwoo: I went home before I went to the store.
Teacher: No, I'm sorry Minwoo.
Minwoo: Was I close?
Teacher: No, I'm sorry. Jiyeon do you have an answer?
Jiyeon: Yes. You said " The can ran away from the house." The can ran away from the house.
Everyone in the class went "OOO."
Teacher: Yes. And really good pronounciation. Ok next sentence. This one is harder. Before I could do anything, the man took her purse and disappeared.
I was the first to put up my hand this time.
Jiyeon: Before I could do anything, the man took her purse and disappeared. Before I could do anything, the man took her purse and disappeared.
Teacher; I believe Jiyeon wins!
Everyone cheered. Minwoo looked annoyed. I just went back to my seat, and so did he. I couldn't look at Minwoo at all during class. I was too scared to see his face. The bell rang and I bolted out of there. I quickly went to my locker, and walked to Mia's.
Mia: Jiyeon-ah, your english is perfect!
Jiyeon: What do you expect? I'm from California!
Mia: But I don't know about Minwoo, he hates to be beaten, especially by a girl...
Jiyeon: Well, it's his fault, he kinda challenged me.
Mia: But he dosen't realize that, so it's trouble for you...
Jiyeon: UGH. Whatever. I already beat him and he already hates me. I'm gonna go to class.
Mia: Wait. Can you come with me to the cafeteria?
Jiyeon: Sure.
We walked to the cafeteria, and Mia bought a drink from the vending machine. Minwoo and the twins were behind us, waiting to buy a drink too. I didn't dare look at him. I just walked away when Mia was done.
Minwoo: Aish... There's that girl again...
Youngmin: Her name is Jiyeon.
Minwoo: Whatever...
They continued to talk about me as Mia and I left the cafeteria. I have a bad feeling about this...
