The events of that day had already faded from my thoughts. Instead, thoughts of how to raise money for the local humane society, planning for Sun Hee's birthday, and other various projects that I was involved in flooded my mind. 

Today was just another day where my schedule was jam packed. Classes all day, and then errands in the afternoon. Even though my life was a busy one, I had grown used to it. I could no longer sit around doing nothing. I worked as one of the teachers at an academy that taught kids from grades 1 to 9. I loved my job and being surrounded by the kids. 

I had also joined a group that raised money for various charities. Every few months, we would focus on helping a different charity. This month it was the humane society, and so far we hadn't come up with any ideas on how to raise money since we'd basically done every possible fundraising thing you could ever think of. 

Checking my watch, I saw that it was already almost time for class. If I didn't hurry, I'd be late. My students always teased me whenever I was late, which wasn't often. It was only an occasional morning when I couldn't drag myself out of bed, or if traffic was really bad. 

"Miss Lee!" 

I turned around to find Mr. Kwon, the director of the academy, standing behind me with a familiar looking little boy beside him. 

"Pretty girl! Hi!" the little boy waved. 

"Jun! Hello!" I smiled at him. It was that adorable little boy that had gotten me help from the park the other day. 

A confused look crossed Mr. Kwon's face. "You already know each other?"

"We've met."

"Oh, well that'll make things easy. Miss Lee, Park Woo Jun has just been enrolled here. He will be joining your grade 5 class." 

Having him in my class would be great. He was adorable and such a well behaved little boy. 

"Alright then. Here, come with me, let's go and meet the other students," I offered him my hand. He latched on quickly, and we walked the rest of the way to class. 

"Where are your parents?" I asked him. Usually, a new student's parents would be with him on his first day, but there had only been Mr. Kwon who came with Jun. 

He looked up at me and replied, "They're on a business trip in Italy. That's why Dayday's taking care of me. He's Daddy's best friend, and I like him a lot." 

Ugh. That rude Dayday. I still hadn't forgotten what he'd said about me. Using the words 'gross', 'dirty', and 'sweaty' to describe me. Jerk. 

"He's coming to pick me up after school today! You still remember him right?" 

"Yes, I still do." Jun smiled at me. "Unfortunately," I mumbled quietly. 

Great. Seeing Dayday. The perfect way to end my day. 

Not.
