"Hi Miss Lim. I didn't know you go to school here." she said while going to her seat beside Kai. We all just stared at her.
"Everyone!" Mrs. Lee yelled and we all faced front. We were just quiet and doing or normal routines, Mrs. Lee saying her question and any of us answered.
"Who is the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty?" Mrs. Lee asked. All of us raised our hands except Emma. "Miss Swalisher, do you have an answer?" she stood up and shook her head. We all gasped and covered our mouths.
"This is girl doesn't know the history of KOREA?! Is she even Korean?" Chanyeol exclaimed under his breath. We laughed and I looked at Emma. She was still standing up there.
"Ms. Emma, do you know the answer?" Mrs. Lee asked again annoyed.
"No. I don't know the answer to your question. I don't know the history of Korea because I am not a Korean. I'm just starting to learn about it. I didn't tackle the Joseon Dynasty yet and the more on the wars of Korea. If you're going to ask me about the Chinese history then maybe I can answer them." she said and sat down. We all fixed our gaze at her. Chanyeol told me that also Luhan, Tao, Lay, and Kris were Chinese. Lay, Tao and Kris transferred to Korea five years ago. On the other hand, Luhan transferred to Korea just a year ago so he's not yet really good in the Language but is getting better everyday. Emma just looked at the window. Mrs. Lee clapped her hands and we all faced front. Mrs. Lee continued on her discussion. Emma was just there copying notes and listening to Mrs. Lee. I, on the other hand was multi-tasking. I was writing, reading, listening and explaining to Mr. Xi because he can't understand Mrs. Lee.
"So, what is she saying right now?" he asked. I groaned and explained to him about the coronation of kings. Mrs. Lee caught us talking.
"Mr. Xi and Mrs. Lim. What are you two talking about?" Mrs. Lee said. They all looked at us and I gulped a lump of saliva. Just as I was about to say something, Luhan interrupted.
"I can't understand you Mrs. Lee. I may have transferred to Korea a year ago but I still can't understand Korean very much." he said. "So I asked Ms. Lim to explain it to me." he finished and smirked. Mrs. Lee nodded and apologized to the both of us. She discussed until it was finally time for lunch. When the bell rang, everyone started fixing their things. I closed my book, notebook, and placed my pens, highlighters and pencils back in my pencil case. I placed everything in my bag and stood up.
"Umm.. Cho Rin?" somebody called. I turned around and saw Emma there with her books and her bag. "Can I eat lunch with you?" she asked. I swallowed yet another lump of saliva. I looked at Mina and Ali who were standing near the doorway waiting for me. They nodded at me and mouthed the word Go.
"Sure. Let's go." I said and grabbed my bag. She smiled and we went out of the classroom and was followed my Mina and Ali going in another way.
When we arrived, we went straight to the food choosing area. I chose a light meal of chicken sandwich and potato fritters while Emma had tenderloin steak and vegetables for her sidings. Wow. Just wow. Is this girl rich? I thought. We went to table five and sat down. The boys were in table six and Mina and Ali were in table seven. Our tables were seperated from the regulars but it is not really a big gap. There were rails and a bodyguard to prevent girls from going near the boys and the boys to go to the girls. Me and Emma ate our lunch talking about her life and partly my life. When I looked over to the boys, I saw they were being chaotic and really loud. I saw a little of Mina and Ali just there talking normally. I finished my lunch and so did Emma.
"Emma, let's go to the library." I said. She nodded and we went out our area. We walked to the library silently and just slowly. When we arrived, I told her to follow me and we sat on the place where I usually stay the most. The only open corner of the library. We sat down and Emma started saying something.
"Um.. Cho Rin, can I tell you something?" she asked and smirked. I nodded. "Well, I came in this school for a reason. I needed to fulfill my mission."
"What mission? Are you a spy or something?" I said and she laughed.
"Well technically not but partially yes. It's because like I'm the future heir to my company and I have to like follow my "parents" tradition and like marry off to someone I don't even like." she said. I just raised my eyebrows.
"Who is it then?" I asked. She was shocked to hear that but after that, she smirked.
"It's for you to find out. but I'll give you a clue, it's one of our classmates." she said and did a mischievous grin. "Oh, by the way, also you, you have an arranged marraige with someone." she said. I gasped.
"B-B-Bbo?!" I stutter. She nods and gives me a pat at the back.
"Well it's our class-"
"How did you know about this? Are you my stalker or something?" I cut her off. Why in the world did I have an arranged marraige?! I thought.
"Well technically, your mother is my godmother so like we talked when she was away from you and your father. She started a business that only me, she and my father knew. So it grew big and there was a rapid change. Didn't you see her wearing better clothes when she went to your father's funeral parlor? Also Homin's right?" she asked and I recalled the time when she went there. I remember what she wore and what Homin wore and yes, she was wearing quite a lot of jewelry than before and her hair had highlights. Homin on the other hand had a hat, a very expensive watch and his shoes were made just for him. is hook my head and started to cry. Then the bell rang and I suddenly stopped and wiped my tears. Emma was just there looking at me.
"Will you promise me that you will help me?" I asked her. She tensed up and looked at me.
"Only if you help me." she replied. I nodded and gave out my hand. She gave out her hand, too and shook it.
"The deal is on." I said and we laughed. We got out bags and headed to our classroom. We walked in to see apparently nobody inside. We just looked at each other and smiled. We went to our seats and just sat down when the boys, Mina and Ali came inside. I'm surprised to see Mina and Ali with the boys and smiling. No Cho Rin~ah, your not jealous okay? I said in my mind. They all sat down and Mina was talking to Suho and Ali was talking to Sehun. I smiled and opened my book. Ms. Hoon came in and we stood up to greet her.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Hoon. We are glad to see you this morning." we said together. She smiled and told us to sit down. We all sat down and she moved upfront.
"So kids, I want you guys to choose a partner. This time, I want the girls to have a boy partner and the remaining boys will partner each other up. Boys please pick your partners." Ms. Hoon said. I groaned.
"I pick Cho Rin~ah!" Chanyeol shouted. I looked at him and he smiled. I smiled back.
"Okay Cho Rin and Chanyeol. Be partners there." and they started partnering each other up. Sehun was with Ali and Suho was with Mina. On the other hand, Emma was with Tao. Tao and Emma both groaned. The rest of the partners were Xiumin and Chen, Kai and Dyo, Luhan and Baekhyun and Lay and Kris.
"I want all of you to work on the math equations I will be giving to each of you." she said and started handing out papers. She gave to me the paper and me and Chanyeol started looking at it. It stated there were 5 math equations that we perfectly easy for me. I smirked and started to answer them.
-On the paper-
1. 5x^-2y^10 over 2x^-1(-3x^-3y^-1)^-2 =
2. If f(x) = x^2-3x+2, then find f(1)*(f2)?
3. X= y^2/y^3 + 1, what is y in terms of x?
4. Find the value of log2 4 + log5 25.?
A=P (1 + r)^n, A=13310 P=10000 and r=10% then find n.?
Chanyeol was just there looking at the paper puzzled.
"Your not a math genius right?" I asked him. He nodded and I laughed. "Don't worry I'm one of the best in school. This thing is so easy." I said and he smiled. After five minutes of doing solutions, I finally wrote my final answers on the paper.
1. 5x^-2y^10 over 2x^-1(-3x^-3y^-1)^-2 = (45/2)x^-7 y^8
2. If f(x) = x^2-3x+2, then find f(1)*(f2)? f(1) * f(2) = (1^2 - 3(1) + 2)(2^2 - 3(2) + 2) = (1 - 3 + 2)(4 - 6 + 2) = 0 * 0 = 0
3. X= y^2/y^3 + 1, what is y in terms of x? X = y^2/y^3 + 1 x = 1/y + 1 yx = 1 + y xy - y = 1 y(x - 1) = 1 y = 1/(x - 1) (x - 1)
4. Find the value of log2 4 + log5 25.? log(base 2)4 + log(base 5)25 = 2 + 2 = 4
A=P (1 + r)^n, A=13310 P=10000 and r=10% then find n.? 13310 = 10000(1 + 0.1)^n 1.331 = (1.1)^n ln1.331 = ln(1.1^n) ln1.331 = nln1.1 n = ln1.331/ln1.1 = 3
I finished writing the answers and gave it one last review. I take a look at the other and they were still having a hard time finding the answers. So I looked at chanyeol and we both stood up. We went to Ms. Hoon who was checking notebooks and gave it to her. She looked up and smiled at the both of us. She took it and started checking it. She smiled as she checked each number. When she finished, she gave it back to us with a smile.
"Perfect Mr. Park and Ms. Lim. You both did well." and the others gasp and groaned. Me and Chanyeol looked at each other and laughed. We want backstop our seat and somebody poked me from behind. I turned around to see it was Emma and Tao. Tao was rolling his eyes and told me to come closer. I went nearer to him.
"Please give me your paper Ms. Stupid." he said. I stood up and slapped his face.
"How dare you call a girl like that! Don't you have an respect and manners?" I said and started stuffing my things into my bag. When I stuffed everything, I grabbed the sling of my bag and told Ms. Hoon that I needed to meet someone important and need to go. She nodded and I went out. I walked to the library and saw the old librarian sleeping. I went to the shelves and going through each and every shelf to find the books about basic law. I always acted like a lawyer when I was still a small girl. It made my dad proud. I got the first one I found and sat down, this time on a table. I opened it and read it and copied some notes. I didn't notice somebody sitting beside me so when I shook my hand because it was painful, I hit somebody in the elbow.
"Omo! Im so sorry." I said and turned my head to the right. I saw Luhan and was shocked to see him also reading a book about law. "You want to be a lawyer, too?" I asked him. He just nodded and went back to reading. I look at my watch and saw it was almost time for dismissal. How did he get here? I thought.
"Well, it's almost time so would you like to go home?" he asked. I shook my head and told him that I'll just stay here. He nodded and got his things and went through the doors. After five minutes, Emma, Mina, and Ali came to the library together and saw me sitting in table. They went near and somebody covered my eyes. I yank it off and saw that Ali was there smiling. I smiled back and told them to sit. I closed my book and we talked for the remaining hours.
Chanyeol'sP.O.V.
Me, Chen, and Baekhyun went to the library to get some books. When I saw Luhan and Cho Rin there, I was standing there, mad. I told Chen and Baekhyun to follow me quietly so that we won't "wake up" the old librarian. We tiptoed and went to the back of the shelves. While they were scanning and looking at the book titles. I grabbed a random book and opened it to a random page. I peeked through the open space at Luhan and Cho Rin. I don't think Cho Rin noticed Luhan there. Luhan was stealing glances from her and i was totally in a rage mode.
"Donsaeng~ah, we're going already, are you done?" Chen asked, holding books in his hands.
"I'm still finding something so you can go ahead." I told him and he nodded. Baekhyun also nodded and they both went to the counter to check out their books. I took a peek again and saw that Luhan wasn't there anymore, so I was about to walk to her when her friends came in and sat down with her. So I just went back to the back of the shelf and stole peeks at her. When Luhan was there, I felt something weird. It felt like something is developing in me. I felt that something stuck me. I felt that this girl I'm looking at, was making me go wild. I felt that everyday, whenever I saw her, she makes my heart go wild. I think I'm feeling something I have never felt before. I got my bag and ripped a paper from my pad and got my pen. I wrote something on it with my best handwriting and folded it to make a paper airplane. I placed back my pad paper and pen in my bag and closed it. I got the paper airplane and using the small hole in the shelf, I aimed it to Cho Rin and let it fly to her. I ran right away to the next shelf and acted like nothing happened.
Cho Rin'sP.O.V.
Me, Emma, Ali, and Mina were talking when something hit my head. I looked around and saw there was a paper airplane on the floor. I got it and didn't open it.
"Chorie, are you okay?" Mina asked me. I raised my head up and saw them all looking at me. I nodded and went back looking at the paper airplane. I opened it and I saw there was a writing. It read as:
I think I like you Cho Rin.
I read it again and again. Who in the world wrote this?! I thought. I crumpled it and placed it in my bag. I look up and smiled at Mina, Ali, and Emma. I told them I was okay and we continued chatting until it was 6:00 p.m.
