one (1/1)

Play. 3 years ago. "An-anyeong, my...my name is Sandara,...Park Sandara" Dara whispered nervously in front of class. She bowed a complete ninety degrees avoiding everyone's eyes. Dara along with her brother just transferred to YG middle school.  Dara was in 6th grade and her brother in 7th. It was the middle of the school year when they transferred and Dara was a reck. She was frightened by the mere idea of being in front of so many people. Before this transfer, she and her brother were home schooled so this was a completely new experience for her. Unlike her brother who was outgoing and confident, she was a shy girl that loved being out of the limelight. "Alright, Sandara shii, you can take the empty seat next to Bom by the window." her teacher smiled and pointed to her desk.  She walked towards her seat with her head bowed down to avoid any sort of awkward eye contact. "Alright class, let's learn some math, shall we?" the teacher announced. And the class, in sync, groaned with complaints except for Dara who was happy that she was no longer the center of attention. Dara wore large glasses and her dark auburn hair was neatly braided. Her uniform was the same as everyone in the class, but hers was buttoned all the way up to the collar. Her skirt reached just below her knee and her shoes were neatly shined. One could say she was old fashioned, but in reality, Dara just wanted to be someone who can hide behind her uniform. "If X+10 = Y and Y/5 = 25, what is X? Anyone want to volun--" Ding...Ding...Ding...The recess bell rung interrupting the teacher. Bom, the girl sitting next to Dara, was full of smiles and Dara did not like it because she knew she was going to talk to her. Before Bom could say hi, Dara shot up from her chair trying to escape. Bang! Because she suddenly stood up, her chair fell. She garnered even more attention causing everyone to look at her. Her face became red and she awkwardly crouched down to put the chair back up and then she swiftly stood up and walked out of the classroom. "Bommie, what did you do to the new girl?" CL, Bom's friend, asked, "You scared the crap out of her!" "A-Ani," Bom pouted, "I just wanted to say hi and to introduce myself, but next thing I know, she stood up." "Yeah right, Bominator. Well it could have just been your face that scared the life out of her," said a random student in her class. "YAH!" Bom yelled, "My face is as beautiful as the moon and if you don't agree you can just wish your life goodbye." This started a chase in the classroom and endless laughter. Pause. Rewind  5 minutes ago<< Blushing Dara swiftly walked out of the classroom and began looking for her beloved brother. She began speed walking and eventually running. As she ran, she hit a fat dude's arm causing the guy to drop his big snack filled with vanilla  ice cream, a hot dog, a cheeseburger and a soda. Because Dara was frightened, she didn't even notice that she hit a guy and continued running without saying sorry leaving a furious fat guy in the hallway. Room 5B. 5B. 5B. Dara kept repeating her brother's room number and to no avail, she could not find her brother's classroom. She was too shy to ask anyone for directions, so she just kept looking around endlessly not knowing that she was running the wrong direction the whole time. Thank god, her brother was in the direction she was running. She saw his dyed blond hair and yelled, "Oppa!" and she back hugged her brother "Whoa Jiyong. Here for one day and you already have girls chasing you." said a boy named YoungBae. "Ani, this is my little sister, Dara" Jiyong said with a smile waving his hand gesturing a no with his little sister still hugging him tightly. "Ah, anyeong, I'm YoungBae. I'm in your brother's class" greeted Bae. Dara just nodded still hugging her brother. Jiyong looked at his sister with a worried expression and told Bae to go to class first, "I have to talk to my sister." "Dara-ah, what's wrong with my cute baby sister?" Jiyong was not only an outgoing and lively person, but he was also a protective and lovable brother. Not wanting to make him worry, she replied with a simple, "I just missed you is all." Jiyong smiled and hugged his sister back not caring about the stares they were getting. Ding. Ding. Ding "Ah, that's the warning bell," Jiyong stated, "Let's go back to class." "Alright, but Oppa?" "Neh?" "I have no idea where my class is." Jiyong chuckled, "You really need to fix that navigation of yours in your head." For the first time today, Dara smiled and they walked to her class together. Before opening her door and entering her class, she took a deep breath. Then she took another one and another. Jiyong noticed this and without her consent, he opened the door loudly causing everyone to stare. He smiled and said, "Anyeong! My name is Jiyong. I am Sandara's older brother. She is a shy girl, but once you get to know here, you'll love her, so please treat her well." Jiyong bowed and then made a cute face with a peace sign. He waved goodbye and walked back to his class. If stares could kill, Jiyong would be dead by now. Dara could not believe what he did and glared at him as he walked away with his cheeky smile. She went into the class and almost everyone, well all the girls, bombarded her questions about Jiyong. She walked to her seat with her head bowed down, yet again silently, ignoring everyone's question. DingDingDing, the sound of heaven to Dara's ear. Class started yet again. Rewind 2 minutes<< Play Jiyong cheekily smiled walking back to his classroom hoping that Dara is now getting along with everyone. When he entered the classroom, he sensed a dark aura. "Dude, it's okay. It was just food." Bae stated trying to calm the guy that Dara hit causing him to knock down all his food. "Just food, it was my precious snack. How am I supposed to live until lunch?" "Stop being so over-dramatic. Here have my snack." Dae, another classmate of their's said. The fat guy smiled, but he was still angry, "She didn't even say sorry--" "What happened?" Jiyong cut in. Bae explained the whole scenario and Jiyong just went, "Oh." "Just Oh? She not only ruined by snack, but she didn't even apologize. That girl is going to pay." "Seung-hyun, calm down. Violence is not the answer," Jiyong stated obviously already close to the guys in class. "Who said I was going to beat her up. She's going to pay as in pay for my snack" TOP said calmly. They all chuckled. Pause. -----
