What another new world
Bad Girl, Good GirlAnother school year, another new school. I’m actually an honor student. I have very great grades it’s just that destroyed the car of my classmate. My parents think that this is the only thing that could make me better. I actually have my boyfriend with me, Jonghyun. He was the most popular guy in school. We have been friends since we were children. I was a weakling, but I then decided to change. Jonghyun has been with me. He’s the richest, smartest and most popular guy in school. He was the only person with me. Anyway, I walked my way to school. I then bumped into these flirtatious looking girls.
??? : Watch it would you?!
Me: I don’t care.
??? : who are you?
Me: me? I’m ______.
??? : You’re the transferee? I’m Jessica.
Me: so?
Jessica: say sorry for bumping me.
Me: no.
Jessica: do it.
Me: I don’t care who you are. I live by my own rules.
She was about to slap me. I don’t really care. Suddenly, a hand stopped her.
??? : yah. Why do you have to be so cruel?
Jessica: Donghae-ah. I’m sorry. It’s just that...
Donghae: another newcomer comes and you bully her?
Jessica: no. it’s just that...
Donghae: just go.
That Jessica girl went away.
Donghae: I’m Donghae.
I just walked away.
Donghae: Lee Donghae. You must be new here.
Me: *walks*
Donghae: yah! Aren’t you listening?
Me: no. why?
Donghae: Aren’t you hurt?
Me: no. And I wouldn’t get hurt if I always get hurt.
Donghae: you’re new here, right?
Me: yeah. So?
Donghae: I’ll show you around.
Me: sure. I guess I could use someone to help me around this place.
Donghae showed me to different places. I remembered that I have to behave this school year. I’m finally a senior and made a promise to my parents. I can’t disappoint them. We then stopped at the library. He was meeting some friends. I then looked at this book. I took it and also there was this guy.
??? : you can have it.
Me: thanks.
He seems nice. I looked at the book. It’s the sequel of my favorite book. I sat down somewhere. Donghae then came and grabbed my hand. I let go and hit him.
Me: yah. Who told you to hold me and grab me like that?
Donghae: I just want you to meet my friends.
Me: fine. I’ll let you off this time because I just met you but next time, I won’t allow it.
Donghae: just come with me. *walks to his friends* Here are my friends, Leeteuk, Kangin, Heechul, Siwon, Eunhyuk, Kibum, Yesung and Kyuhyun.
Kyuhyun: hey, it’s you. You took the book I guess.
Donghae: you met?
Me: we saw each other at the books over there.
Kyuhyun: you like the book?
Me: yeah. I had no time to buy this one, so I just borrowed it.
My phone then rang. It was Jonghyun.
Me: *picks up the phone* Yah. Where are you?
Yesung: I’m outside your school?
Me: really? I’ll pick you up then! *hungs up* I gotta go.
Donghae: where—
I ran off. Donghae looked sad and just down.
Leeteuk: yah! That girl. She...
Eunhyuk: looks though.
Kangin: scary
Siwon: uncaring
Heechul: rude
Yesung: boring
Kibum: not to mention disrespectful
Kyuhyun: she looks smart.
Donghae: …
Eunhyuk: where did you meet that girl?
Donghae: she was bullied by Jessica.
Leeteuk: Ah. No wonder.
I went to Jonghyun.
Me: Jonghyun-ah.
Jonghyun: Hey girl.
Me: too bad you’re not here.
Jonghyun: my parents didn’t allow me too. Sorry.
Me: I understand. Anyway, are you going to school?
Jonghyun: yeah. You should go already. It’s almost time for your school.
Me: thanks.
I returned to school. I sat in class. I sat at an empty seat. Nobody sat beside me. I looked at everybody. They seemed scared. I don’t care. Kyuhyun then sat at my left me.
Kyuhyun: hello there.
Me: what are you doing?
Kyuhyun: sitting beside you. This is my place anyway.
The teacher came in. She then asked me to introduce myself. I stood up in front.
Me: I am Park ______. I’m from the school, _______. I was an honor student.
Teacher: now, tell us why you transferred here.
Me: my parents forced me too.
Teacher: thank you. You may take your seat.
The class began. Donghae was sitting at my right. I didn’t listen. I just looked at the blackboard and I know the answer. Everybody was copying except for me. We then had a quiz. I got 95. I really didn’t care. It was lunch time.
Donghae: you want to eat with us?
Me: no. I’m not hungry. I’d rather go somewhere else.
I went out. I was holding the book I borrowed. I went to the roof of the school. It was peaceful. It was an open are and I sat down at the bench. I started reading the book. Time passed so quickly. I felt hunger. I checked my bag but I had no money and no food. I went down to return to class. I was still hungry. Donghae then gave me a sandwich.
Me: what’s this?
Donghae: sandwich.
Me: I know what it is. Why are you giving it to me?
Donghae: because I know you’re hungry.
Me: thanks.
We had our classes. I didn’t care so I just ate at class. Nobody minded me. Time passed classes were over. Donghae then gave me his notes.
Me: what are these?
Donghae: My notes. You can copy it.
Me: thanks.
Donghae: by the way—
I don’t know why he was being so nice to me. I went out of school. I saw Jonghyun. I ran to him. The guys just came out too.
Kibum: who’s that with ___?
Eunhyuk: must be his boyfriend.
Donghae just stared and felt something so different. I and Jonghyun ate together.
Me: how’s school without me?
Jonghyun: people were wondering why you disappeared.
Me: I want to change.
Jonghyun: I know you do.
Me: I have brains but I’m not using it right. I could’ve been the proud daughter my parents wanted.
Suddenly, tears fell on head. I wanted to stop but I just can’t.
Jonghyun: I know you can do it.
He wiped my tears and hugged me. We then walked home. I was still sad. We reached my house and he left. I went to my room. It’s so lonely of me here. I read the book. After an hour, I finished the book. I ate dinner and did my homework for the first time. It’s actually easy. I slept my first night living another new life.
