You walked out the company doors with Chaejin and a cool breeze blew in your face. once again, a COOL breeze. You did a double take. What? It was super hot a few hours ago...... You shivered a bit and wished Eunmi had let you bring your sweats.

"Chae-jin oppa?" you asked quietly.

"Hmm?" he turned around with a curious look on his face.

"Is the weather always changing like this in Korea?"

"Actually, the weather was really weird this week!  right now, it seems like it's cooling down finally. usually it stays pretty cold in this season...."

"Ah, gureokuna...." (Oh so that's how it is)

He grinned and added, "You're going to have to wear something longer than those shorts tomorrow judging from the weather change,"

"Eunmi eonni made me wear this," you sighed and shivered again. As you both entered the market, he suddenly asked, "Do you like playing soccer?" You glanced at him sideways, and answered, "Yeah....how did you know?" He gave an embarrassed smile and said, "Seyong hyung noticed your legs were more muscular than Eunmi's..." Now it was your turn to be embarassed.

"And he was looking at our legs because........"

"I don't really know...." he smiled again and asked said, "so what do you want?"

"mm...." you suveyed the store and you smiled. "bbang! (bread, but in this case, more like sweet, pastry breads like a donut)" you looked up at him with a child-like smile.

He smiled again and said, "I'll get that for our members too. You got bread filled with buttercream for Sung-joon, Sang-min, and Eunmi and got bread filled with green anko (sweet red-bean paste: it can be red or green) and payed for them at the counter. After Chaejin had payed for s' snacks, you guys exited the store together, and the cold wind hit you again.

"Ai!" you yelped a little, forgetting how cool it was outside. Chaejin laughed a little and said, "you really need to wear long pants tomorrow!"

"I'm wearing my uniform tomorrow though," you complained.

"Uniform?" he asked. 

"It's the first day of school for us tomorrow,"

"Jincha? (seriously/really?) but you just arrived in Korea a few days ago," he said. You shrugged your shoulders and said, "Nothing's ever really fair in the world....." He looked at you and smiled a little sadly.

"You know," he said, "You're seem so naive, but you're really not. I guess it's just you look and act so innocent, but I bet this world has done some crazy stuff to you. You think about a lot of stuff, huh?"

"I wouldn't say that, " you said as you gently scratched you cheek. He grinned at your comment and cute scratching.

"You smile a lot," you told him which made him smile without thinking.

"See! you just smiled!"

"A lot of people tell me that," he laughed. "Is it bad?"

"No, it's a good thing. I think it's better to be too happy than to be too sad."

"You really do think abut a lot things..." Chaejin noted. You were about to answer him when he suddenly bowed. You looked at him, and then turned to see who he was bowing too. A few steps ahead of you guys was the blonde guy you had met at the supermarket! Next to him were 2 more boys, one who looked exactly like him except with darker hair and another shorter boy. All three of them bowed slightly to Chaejin. Your usually big eyes were even bigger and you didn't know what to do, so without knowing what you were doing, you grabbed Chaejin's arm and hid behind him. Unfortunately you were too late, and the blonde guy recognized you.

"Ah... aren't you that girl from the supermarket?" he asked you. His eyes looked even bigger than they had at the market and they were full of curiousity.

"yes..." you answered quietly and you were surprised that he suddenly smiled.

"Do you recognize me from anywhere else?" he asked and you shook your head. He smiled again, but this time it was bittersweet and suddenly he exclaimed, "Ah!" He pointed to the shorter guy and said, "This is the person who hit you with the cart," You looked at the boy who had hit you and said a shy,"Annyeonghaseyo," The boy scratched his head in embarrasment and said, "Sorry about that," with a cute laugh afterwards.

"We better go," said the other boy who looked exactly like the blonde one. The blonde guy waved at you and they walked past you and Chaejin. Afer they were out of earshot, you and Chaejin turned to each other at the same time and asked, "How do you know them?"

Chaejin smiled and said again, "You met them?"

"Yeah... yesterday a cart bumped into me and the blonde one apologized after retrieving the cart, but how do you know them?"

"You really don't recognize them?"

You shook your head and he said, "They're idols that debuted a few months before me.... and so that's why you hid behind me?" You suddenly noticed you were still holding his arm and imediately let go.

"Mian, Chae-jin oppa," you looked down. He smiled again and said, "It's totally fine. I was just surprised, that's all." You sighed with relief when you heard him timidly add, "My friends call my Jinnie," As you guys entered the company building, you realized what he had meant and smiled. 

"Mm, araso Jinnie-oppa"

 

By the time you had finished filming, MYNAME had to go finished their schedule, and you 4 and your manager were left to do the editing.

"It all of a sudden feels lonely," Sung-joon remarked and he spun around in the room that now seemed so big with the fewer amount of people. Sang-min was busy editing the video with your manager and Eunmi was doing something on her phone.

"Eonni, what are you doing?" you sat down next to her and she replied, "I'm texting Jun-Q."

"How'd you get his number? you asked.

"Thats' right!" she said, "you were getting the snacks when we exchanged numbers.... do you want them?"

" Ah, that's fine," you said. "It's not like I'm going to ever need them since you guys already have them."

 

After you guys had finished editing the video and sent it to the Soul of Seoul Board, your manager drived you guys to the back entrance of your house.

"School starts at 7:45 am, so I'm going to pick you guys up at 7 tomorrow since it's the first day. Wear your uniforms and just bring you backpacks, we'll get the books and everything you need tomorrow okay?"

"We got it," Sang-min answered and you guys waved as your manager drove off.

 

It was 9:23 and you were getting ready for bed. Eunmi was trying on her uniform while you were just wearing your sleeping sweats and T-shirt.

"Is this right?" she asked as she buttoned her blazer/jacket.

"Isn't the skirt supposed to be longer?" you said as you look at computer images of korean uniforms.

"I thought so too, but our skirts seem to reach only just past mid-thigh even when we wear it properly."

"But it's going to be cold....." you said and closed the computer.

"I know...but I guess we just have to wear long socks." she said as she took off her uniform and put her sleeping clothes on.

"Did you brush your teeth?" she asked you and you groaned.

"Yes, I did eonni."

"What time are you waking up tomorrow?"

"I don't know... what time are you?"

"Hm... how about 6?

"Sure.. I'll make an alarm," You reached for you phone and set the alarm when you suddenly received a message. You opened it and read:

Anyeonngg~ guess who?  ^.^ v  

                         -smiley(:   

"Eonni," you said, still looking at the message. "Did you get any weird message from a no name person?"

"Hm? no..... let me see," she hopped on your bed and looked at your phone. She got her phone and started comparing contact numbers with the mysterious sender and she started smiling.

"Pabo..." she said poking you in the stomach. "Who did you just meet that smiles a lot?"

You thought for a few seconds when it finally clicked.

"Jinnie oppa! But how does he know my number?"

"We gave your number to the rest of the MYNAME members so they must've given it to him." You stared at your phone, not knowing what to do.

"You know, it'd be polite to answer back." You pushed her of your bed and said, "Fine. I'll do that."

"Remember wake up at 6!" Eunmi reminded you as she turned off the lights and got into bed. You slipped under your covers and texted:

Is this Jinnie-oppa? o.O 

After a few seconds you felt your phone vibrate and opened the new message:

Ding dong! Our schedule just finished. so tired >.<

                            -smiley(:

You replied:

Get some rest, oppa. And don't smile too much or your face will hurt :3

After a few seconds, you received another message:

Araso~ Good luck at school tomorrow.... don't die on me! hyungs are getting suspicious of why im using my phone so much... so Good night(:

                           -smiley(:

You smiled and texted back one last time:

Good night~

Korean translations:

mian- sorry

araso- okayy/i got it

pabo- dummy/stupid

(I tried putting some of  the translations next to the word in the story: is that better or should i just keep on doing the translations at the bottom like ive been doing?)

 

please support if you like my ideas(: and comment on how I'm doing!
