America

*Click* I guess this is it then. Don’t worry, I won’t forget you. I’ve got a picture of you in my mind and in my heart…oh and in print as well. Hehehe. Uhm..It’s not that I’m not taking this seriously, it’s just that..you know how I hate sad farewells. I want to leave you with a smile.

“Jessica! Let’s go. We’re late for our flight.”

“ Okay dad! I’ll be out in a sec...” I turned back to her…”hey, you’re immortal to me now so don’t you worry that you’ll be gone in my memory. Always remember that you will stay with me forever…goodbye…”

A few days later in South Korea

“Miss Jessica..wake up..” Someone’s shaking me. How dare she disturb my precious sleep??

“ Argh… 10 more minutes…”

“But miss, It’s already 7:45...only 15 minutes left before classes start…:

“That’s okay…Mrs. Davis comes in 30 minutes late for class…”

“But miss...Mrs. Davis isn’t your adviser anymore…”

“Yeah...whatever…” I hid my head under the pillows.

“Miss Jessica, we’re not in America anymore..We’re in Korea and knowing your dad-“

“WHAT??” I opened my eyes. “Gosh! I totally forgot!” I quickly sat up and rushed to the bathroom. “Tell Bill to get ready! I’ll be down in a few minutes!”

“okay miss…”

After a while…

I got inside the car and closed the door with a BAM! The man in front turned to me and smiled.

“Good morning miss Je-“

“Step on it!”

His attention was now back to the wheel. “as you wish miss…”

We’re a few blocks from their house when…

“Where’s my camera??? I salvaged my bag for my camera but it was nowhere to be found. “Oh no! STOP! Let’s go back!”

“There’s no time for that now Miss Jessica. You’re late and on the first day too…”

“I don’t care! Let’s go!”

“ But-“

“ NOW!!”

He sighed.  “We don’t call her ice princess for nothing…” I heard that. I just didn’t pay attention to it. I’ve been used to it already and I don’t care what they say. They gave me that title because of my actions. They don’t know me that much. They don’t even try to. Or…I don’t let them. Anyway…
