I search for my classroom as I walk down the hallway. I walk up the stairs until I find the correct floor then find the classroom right away.
Peeking through the window from the door, the teacher was already in the classroom and the students were in their seats.
'Crap am I late?'
I check the time on my phone to see that it was eight o'clock.
Putting my phone away, I enter the classroom.
"Class I'd like you to meet our new student, Shae. Shae would you like to tell us something about yourself?"
I scan through the classroom where all eyes were on me. Though no one were moving their mouths, their eyes were all full of judgment.
My eyes suddenly were glued to a specific set of eyes that were on me. His weren't as judgmental as the others. His expression is the same as mines.
'I can't believe it's him! From the karaoke place. Of all the places and all the people Why did it have to be him?'
"W- Well I- um I'm from Japan but moved here to Korea when I was really young. I can speak three languages: English, Japanese, and Korean, I know how to play the guitar and the piano and I love to-" before I could finish my sentence, I get interrupted by a classmate.
"Eat!" Someone blurred out, causing the whole class to erupt with laughter.
Taking I deep breath I focus on the scary guy from the karaoke. He was the only one who was not laughing. It was difficult to tell what was going on in his head.
"That's enough class." The teacher says. "Shae why won't you take a seat next to Eunwoo?"
He points the empty seat next to the scary guy from the karaoke. Eunwoo huh? So that must be that scary guy's name.
As I walk to my seat, one of the boys were making fart noises. I stop and the farting noise stops. I start walking again and the farting noise starts once again until I take my seat.
I look at Eunwoo who was no longer looking at me. He was focused on his own work.
I take out my notebook and my pencil and eraser.
As I was opening my notebook, my pencil fell to the floor and rolled over to Eunwoo's feet.
My eyes go wide as I'm afraid to ask him to give me my pencil. He might yell at me and have some sort of misunderstanding.
'What should I do?'
Eunwoo stopped writing in his notebook and looked down to his feet. He leaned down to pick up the pencil and hands it out to me.
"Here."
"Huh?" I quietly look at him.
"It's yours isn't it?"
"Yeah?"
"Then here you go."
I take my pencil from him. "T- Thank you, Eunwoo."
Eunwoo says nothing more and goes back to writing in his notebook and I go do the same.
