Chapter 2
Me: Can we go in?
Dong-Gul: No.
He was walking towards the house, when a women came out.
Woman: Dong-Gul, are those your friends? Come, let them in, let them in!
I guessed that that was his mom. We entered the house. Dong-Gul had gone upstairs to his room.
*Switch to He-Ran P.O.V. (Point Of View)*
Dong-Gul's mom was very polite. She was wearing a hanbok(Traditional Korean dress).
Dong-Gul's Mom: I am so very happy happy that Dong-Gul has finally made friends.
Sang-Mi: Finally? He's never had friends before?
Dong-Gul's Mom: Well, I guess I will tell you. You are his friends after all. Dong-Gul used to be very popular, he made a lot of friends in 1st grade, but there was one girl who he was best friends with. Her name was Hae-Mi. They would do everything together; eventually Dong-Gul had developed a liking for this girl. But in 3rd grade Hae-Mi caught a mysterious illness and died a few day later. Dong-Gul went into a grave depression and started to think that he was at fault. It got even worse when his father died months later. Since those two incidents Dong-Gul blames himself for every bad thing that happens around him.
Sang-Mi: That's horrible!
I didn't care as much as my sister did. I never really liked Dong-Gul, but I admit that it's sad.
Dong-Gul's Mom(continuing): And now Dong-Gul's elder sister has come up with a lung disease. He goes to visit her every day. So since bad things have happened to the people he's close to he doesn't want to become friends with anyone, I guess you could say it's his way of protecting people.
Me: That's a bit of a stupid reason!
Sang-Mi: Sis!
Me: I'm sorry but it is!
Dong-Gul's Mom: What she is saying is true. I try to tell him that but he doesn't listen. Can you both go see him upstairs?
Sang-Mi: Ok!
*Switch to Dong-Gul's P.O.V.*
I was reading a book when the idiot and her sister came into my room.
Idiot: Hey Dong-Gul, we came up here to keep you company!
Me: I don't want company.
Idiot's sister: Well, your mother told us to, so meanwhile we'll be doing homework.
They were doing pretty well with their homework. I guess that idiot isn't as much of an idiot as I tho-
Idiot: Sis, I need help with a question
Idiot's sister: Which one?
Idiot: #1.
Never mind.
Idiot: The thing is they're asking me to multiply the two terms, but I don't see any.
Idiot's sister: They're right there.
Idiot: Oh! Those are terms!
Idiot's sister: How could you not know that! This is revision; we learned this in middle school!
Me: Hey idiot! You're not very good at math are you? That's pretty easy math.
Idiot: First of all, it's not math, its algebra and second of all, my name is not "idiot" it's Yu Sang-Mi.
Me: Ok Sang-Mi, I would like it if you finished up quickly, so you could leave my house.
Sang-Mi (still an idiot): But why? Aren't we friends?
Me: No.
Sang-Mi: Why not?
Me: Because I have no need for friends.
Sang-Mi: Yes you do! You just don't want to get hurt again.
How did she know that?
Me: How did y-
Sang-Mi: Your mom told us about Hae-Mi.
Me: …
Sang-Mi: So can you please give me a chance?
Me: …
Sang-Mi: Pretty please!
Me: *Sigh* F- fine.
I can't believe the words that just came out of my mouth! I just agreed to give this idiot a chance. I've gone mad!
Sang-Mi: Yes! So I could talk to you at school?
Me: Yeah…
Sang-Mi: And I could come over to your house?
Me: Yeah, whatever…
Sang-Mi: And-
Me: Yeah, yeah! Just shut up!
I think I just made a horrible mistake.
