"Krystal, wait!" I yelled half jogging to catch up with her after class. The other kids in the hallway all looked at me like I was a total nut job. Her low heels stopped clinking all of a sudden and she swung her wavy locks around to look back at me.

"Yes? she asked almost giving me an innocent, yet confused look.

"So..uh..I..um.." I was panting like Henry after getting his beaten in basketball. That look she gave me turned into an impacient spit-it-out-already-look. Why did I chase after her? I look desperate as hell now. "You..never..let...me..finish..my sentance." I started breathing a bit softer now.

"Oh, sorry. What were you going to say?" Krystal asked as if it' her fault I at keeping up with time.

"Do you maybe want to be the fifth person in my travel group?" I asked with low expectations.

"Who's in your group?" Krystal asked with a skeptical voice.

"Um, let's see, it's me, Ailee, Min, and Jonghyun. Ya know any of them?"

"Oh yeah! I talk to Jonghyun all the time! He's pretty cool, but you'll have to introduce me to Min and Ailee. Soo, yeah, like it sounds great!"

"Awesome! I'll tell the rest of the group and Ms. Choi." These were the words that actually came out, but I was actually thinking 'OHMYGAWDOHMYGAWDOHMYGAWDSHELIKESMESHELIKESMEWEAREGOINGTOGETMARRIEDANDHOLYSHESSOPRETTY.'

"Cool. See ya." Krystal continued her strut to the next class and I ungracefully shuffled to Korean.

                                                                                                             ~

I walked into class late and with twenty two faces looking back at me. I can feel them judging me. Guys, stop judging me with your face. Ailee and Jonghyun were holding back a laugh and Min's sneaking a sandwich under her desk. Why am I not surprised? I sat down in my chair and waited for Ms. Choi to stop her lesson and ask where I've been. I would feel really guity if I made Krystal late too.

"Eunyoung-ah, (my Korean name) 어디있었어?" She asked me. I started to feel bad because she is one of those teachers that won't punish you, but you feel awful to disappoint.

"Um, 화장실에서. 죄송합니다," I responded feeling red in the face.

"Be on time from now on. 아라서?" she said.

"아라서요, 성생님." I feel a little better now.

"Okay, class today we learn new words and practice in books for half hour. Then we talk about our travel groups." Oh, . That's right. Gotta tell Dino (Jonghyun), Min, and Ailee.

 I feel like double O seven right now, pulling my phone out like a gin. I'm so sneaky. heheheh. As I casually slid my phone out of my pocket occasionally looking at my book and the teacher I started a group text. Menu-New Text-To: Min :P, Dino xD, Ailee<3-"hey guys, last hour i got krystal to join our group as the 5th person. cool?" -Send

"omo! amber!!! :DDD you actually talked to her today?? is that why ur late to class to??? OMG NO WAY LAMAAAAAAA!!! -Ailee<3

"shut up, a" -Send

"Ayeeee! Llama I'm so proud of you! I know Krys really well so maybe I can be your wingman..;)))" -Dino xD

"guys stop texting! ms chois getting suspicious of my sandwich" -Min :P

''min. logic honey." -Ailee<3

Our conversation ended there. I'm glad they were happy with Krystal in our group. Wait, did Dino say he'd be my wingman? Welp, this may or may not be a disaster. I don't need to keep thinking about this. I'll never get any work done.

I snapped back into reality and did three pages of Korean to English translations in three minutes and then some. Woo! I'm fast.

 

Thats what she said. hehehe

 

A half hour passed and Ms. Choi grabbed her clipboard and red pen. Why is she using red? Doesn't she know that's bad luck? I guess that superstition isn't true since I was lucky enough to get Krystal to be in my group and to get all my work done quickly, (which may or may not be done half-assed). Ms. Choi made it to my desk, looked at my work witha disgusted look on her face, and gave me a 10/10 for the day. I guess my handwriting was pretty horendous from rushing.

"여로분! Good job working today. Now we write groups. Take some paper out. Write your name and who you want your group. Put on the desk when you finish. After, we talk about schedule."

It took me forever to find some paper in my messy backpack. When I found it, it was crumpled and smelled like cheese. Ew.

I wrote in Korean to impress her since it wasn't mandatory and hopefully she'll forget about that tardy earlier...

류 은영        4월 3일

1. 크리스탈

2. 민

3. 에일리

4. 종현

I hope I wrote everyone's name right. Oh well, I'm not changing it now. Hopefully she noticed I put Krystal's name first, so we can DEFINITLEY be in a group together. Crossing my fingers..

Ms. Choi passed out a sheet of paper with all the times and things we were going to do in Korean. Then she talked for a while and I zoned out. I'll just read the rest when I get home.

"미안해, class! I forgot to pass out list of packing things. Get a copy up before you leave please.

BRIIIINNNNNGGGGGG! The bell rang and I sowly walked out of class exhausted. Why am I tired? I literally did nothing all day.

                                                                                                     ~

The next morning was sunny and warm outside. Ooh, that's a good sign! When Jackie drove me to school I was in a weird mood and hyper too. Jackie figured I was really excited.

"Oh yeah! Today's when you figure out whose in your group, isn't it?" Jackie asked me.

I giggled. "Maybe..." I shyly replied.

"Haha, llama, just get of my car. We're here."

"Okay, bye unnie!"

"See ya later! Dork." I went into school with a preppy walk, a smile on my face, and both backpack straps on my shoulders. As I strut to the front of the front door of the school, I tripped on a sidewalk crack, caught myself, and brushed it off like a boss.

The day went by extremely slow, but finally. The moment we've all been waiting for.

"안자 class. Group 1 is.." -blah, blah, blah, who cares? Not me.

"Group 2 is Jonghyun..,Amber..,Min..,Ailee..,and...Krystal."

HEEEEEEEELL YEAH.

"Group 2? You have a sixth member. Sooyoung will also be in the group, since she was gone yesterday. Take good care of her."

Ailee, Min, and Jonghyun all looked back at me with wide eyes and mouthed 'Oh, ' as I facepalmed myself.

                                                                                                      . My. Life.
