❝i knew it wouldn't be

hard to find you,

but you're too pretty

to get angry.❞

chewing gum

"wakey wakey hyeji,

we're here~~"

[mrs. kwon tried waking

the sleeping girl in a

sing song tone.]

[but hyeji just snored

louder than she already

was, as she snuggled

comfortably in the seat.]

"WAKEY WAKEY!!"

[the mother yelled right

into her ears, immediately

flinching the girl awake.]

"WHAT THE FUC- oww!!"

"no cussing in

this household

my child."

"we're here??

this is where

we are going

to live at???"

[hyeji questionably pointed

at the sight of her new home

that lied right infront of her.]

"yes honey, a new

home and you'll be

going to a new school

as well!!"

[the mother smiled at

her daughter, who in

return just rolled her

eyes. playfully.]

"mom don't you think

i'm also tired of constantly

changing schools??"

[mother's gaze softened

before going back to

playfully hitting her on

the back.]

"aigoo i just want

the better for you

honey, apparently

i heard that this school,

neo high is a perfect one

and that they had always

been ranking either 1st or

2nd during any annual

school competitions till now."

[she stroked hyeji's

hair, speaking as if

to convince the girl.]

[hyeji smiled, knowing

that her mother had

done everything for her

and atleast, she didn't

want to be any more

burdensome.]

[but what made her

jump in her seat, surprising

her mom, was when she realized

that the boys were going to the

same school as well.]

"MOM I KNO-"

[a loud, impatient honk,

frightened the two loving

mother and daughter.]

[a heavily loaded truck,

took a swift turn, drove

pass their car, hastily.]

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE

YOU CARELESSLY DRIVING

FOR?? YOU HONKING

UNCULTURED SWINE?!

DO YOU WANT TO GET

US KILLED??!! CAN'T YOU

SEE THAT I'M HAVING SOME

QUALITY TIME WITH MY

DAUGHTER WHO IS STILL

SINGLE AND IS YET TO FIND

HERSELF A BOYFRIEND AND

THAT SHE STILL DOESN'T

KNOW HOW TO COOK AN

OMELETTE. I- GOD GIFTED

YOU WITH TWO FUCKING

EYES. E Y E S, EYES!!!"

"YOU SEE IT??? YOU SEE

IT??? THE ROAD IS SPACIOUS

ENOUGH FOR YOUR FUCKING

TRUCK TO PASS THROUGH!!"

"but you just

told me not

to cuss..."

[hyeji murmured to

herself, astonished.]

[the truck pulled over,

and out came a guilty

looking man in his late

30s, while carrying a

white purse in his hand.]

"i'm so sorry ma'am,

i was in a hurry since

i'm supposed to drop

the orders by noon

but this had accidentally

dropped out from your

car."

[the two studied it carefully,

finding the item similar.]

"HOLY CHEESE!!

THAT'S MINE!!"

[the mother then, guiltity,

smiled.]

"oh my god- i'm so

sorry mister for

whatever i said except

about my daughter since

that's true but like thank

you! may god bless you,

may jesus bless you, may

hell bless you, may satan

bless you-"

[his mouth agape, the man

stared at the chattering

woman in confusion.]

"oh my god mom!

stop it!!"

[hyeji clamped her hand

over her mom's mouth,

shutting her up. sheepishly

bowing at the driver, she took

her purse.]

"i should go now,

thank you."

"NO!! THANK YOU!!

MISTER- WHO SAVED

MY LAZY ASSED GIRL'S

LIFE- MAY THE WHOLE

WORLD BLESS YOU!!"

"MOM!!"

[hyeji squeaked in

embarrassment, covering

her face while doing so.]

"*sighs* new sweet

home- yahh!! stop

clicking photos and

help me out, will you??"

[hyeji pouted before

gesturing a 'stop' sign

with her hand.]

"wait mom! just a

little more. i promised

jaemin that i'd meet him

the day i move into

this neighborhood."

[mrs. kwon immediately

dropped the empty box

before jumping right

next to where hyeji was

seated at- making her

bounce in the process.]

"who is jaemin!!??"

"your boyfriend??!!"

"tell me his name-

what the fuck you

already told me his

name but- what's his

full name??"

"his birthday, his family

background, his past

love affairs, his likes and

dislikes, when did you both

meet? since when have you

been dating? GASP WERE

YOU SECRETLY DATING HIM

WITHOUT LETTING ME KNOW??

NOW HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO

TELL YOUR GRANDMA THAT

YOU WERE ACTUALLY IN A

RELATIONSHIP WHEN ALL I

EVER TOLD HER REPEATEDLY

WAS THAT YOU WERE SINGLE

YOUR WHOLE LIFE!!!"

"what the- did you

really just say gasp

but didn't actually

gasp?? what even."

"and no!! WE are NOT

DATING AT. ALL. MOM!!

i just met him and his

other friends through

instagram and-"

[hyeji lets out a dramatic

gasp with so much

exaggeration.]

"WHY WOULD YOU TELL

GRANDMA ABOUT ME

BEING SINGLE??!!"

[mrs. kwon waved her hand,

changing the topic as she

firmly placed a hand on hyeji's

shoulder.]

[staring intensely into her

daughter's eyes, hyeji

knew that 'this' meant

something wrong was

going to happen.]

"you, my daughter,

*pushes hyeji off the

couch* will go and meet

that jaemin dude and bring

him over for dinner. now

SIMON SAYS GO!!"

[hyeji hisses, rubbing the

sore spot as she got up.]

"mom are you crazy-"

"SIMON SAYS GO!!"

[hyeji kept glancing at her

watch, time and again. her

heart pounding against her

chest as she couldn't help

but feel nervous.]

[she wasn't ready, at all,

to meet them this quickly.]

[just then, as she was standing

outside the cafe, she was supposed

to meet jaemin at, she heard loud

noises coming from a group of boys.]

"are they *squints*

"here is korea man!!"

[as the group inched closer

without noticing the astounded

girl, their faces began

to familiarize.]

[she realized it was them.]

"oh my god."

"YO!! ISN'T THAT HYEJI?!"

[mark pointed at the girl who

was about to, secretly run

away but so much to her

despise, she got noticed, as all

their attention got diverted

to where his index finger was

pointed at.]

"HYEJI-YAAAAA"

"holy shit."

[she wasn't ready.]
