Target Transferred
new school
it's a warm summer middle of school year. The uneventful fate of my parents divorce compelled me to move to another house.
I'm currently heading to my cousin's house -- Hana . a 19 year old model living far from my house. for that reason I'll be transferring to a new school , Yusi-young high
Hana
Oh gosh ! , Hwan I told you to st------.
Hana
Ji-young !! I thought you were coming tomorrow ?
Ji-young
Eonni ! I'm glad I finally arrived
* huggs Hana *
note: eoinne is a honorific used to adress older female by younger females
Ji-young
I hated it back home
Ji-young
* sniffle * it was a living nightmare
Hana
* Pat's head * oww~ there -- there , you'll be okay ,I'll treat you like a princess from now on
Hana
let's get inside, I'll show you to your room
Hana is my only cousin that I know of. she's a stern person with no time to waste for fun in her schedule. she has an intimidating appearance and she's very hard to approach, but unlike her she treats me with a smile and give up some of her time for me .
As I reached my bedroom I was dumbfounded. I always forget how rich eonni is.
Ji-young
AAAAAAA!!! is this really my room
Ji-young
where are you headed ?
Hana
you know the life of a model , I never stay put . I'll come for dinner so don't worry, besides I'll be escorting you to your new school tomorrow
Ji-young
oh ya , i forgot about that
Ji-young
umm.... do I really have to go to school
Hana
Haha, come on , is that even a question
Ji-young
sigh , I have to go to a new school again. I hope things don't get even worse than my previous school
I accompanied myself with snacks and movies while waiting for Hana .
we ate dinner when she arrived and I went right to bed afterwards
Hana
Ji-young ! we're going to school make it quick !
I wore my new uniform and went downstairs.i exited home closing the door behind me and entered Hanas car
Hana
have you ate your breakfast
Ji-young
I don't know? meh -- don't worry about it
we arrived after minutes of driving and I was shocked
the mood of school is so much different than my previous school. it's much brighter and warmer
Hana
have a nice time ji-young ~
Hana
I'll pick you up when you're done
I started walking inside the school through the hallway.
I browsed for my class and finally found it . However, I was too nervous and anxious to enter.
students
*murmur - murmur *
I slowly crept inside the classroom and sat in the front seat
it was time to start class. A young women entered the class and started teaching, but noticed me a while later
Dae-Eun
o..w ? didn't see you there. you must be the new transfer student
students
a new student ? she's really cute -- look at her -- hehe she's kinda short -- cute * murmur *
Dae-Eun
silence !! , can you please introduce yourself
Ji-young
u--um * stands up * , my name is Ji-young and I'm from ching-su highschool. I'll be learning here from now on and I hope we'll get along
students
oh my God!! she's adorable! cute !
Dae-Eun
Welcom to Yusi-young high ji-young , I'm your homeroom teacher Dae-Eun , but you can call me mrs.V
Dae-Eun
we'll be together for the rest of the year so I hope you'll behave yourself
Dae-Eun
ok guys , open your book to page 49.
Dae-Eun
this sub topic ' Reciprocal of basic trigonometry ' is the ......
mrs. Dae-Eun was our math teacher. we continued learning the subject followed by Biology and literature.
during literature, our teacher gave a group project which I often struggled with.
teacher
in a group of 5 , write a script to present in front of class in a form of play. this accounts about 30% of your grade .
teacher
I'll give you 10 minutes to choose your groups. And...start !
students
lina I'm with you
students
no I'm with her , I'm with you to -- dude let's work together-- chose me ---
the room was filling with commotion while I sat on my place alone and isolated
ho-sook
h..hi there , would you like to work together
Ji-young
huh ? * looks up * ow hi ...I'd love to
ho-sook
Great !! thanks eeh...
ho-sook
thanks Ji-young , I'm ho-sook by the way
Ji-young
oh what a beautiful name
ho-sook
can I sit next to you ...?
Ji-young
ofcaurse * smiles *
we started a conversation with ho-sook and turned out we had a lot in common. she is a year older than me and taller as well , she has a bright personality and she's very conservative
teacher
alright, times up ! submit your team in a piece of paper
ho-sook
oh no !! I totally forgot about it , we have only 2 people in our team !
teacher
those who couldn't find a full team please stand up.
ho-sook and I stood up from our seat along with some others
teacher
since time's up I'll be grouping you myself.
the teacher turned scanned us thoroughly
teacher
Ji-young-- ho-sook -- han-wool -- chan-yeol-- and byung-ho are in one team .
Bongseon-- ji-hun .....
she started grouping us randomly.
teacher
now every group member have to seat in the same area.
Ji-young
who are our group people ... ?
ho-sook
those are the ones
ho-sook pointed towards three Male students as they walk towards us to take a seat like our teacher ordered.
every group was gathered and the teacher gave each group a title . we received our title and it was time for discussion.
ho-sook gets along with people well that's why she started conversation right away. she was suggesting roles and how to organize the playshe also stated when to practice and who should be the leader of the group even though it's already decided that it's her
ho-sook
so guys , any suggestions about practice time ?
Byung-ho
I think it would be better to introduce ourselves to the new one first
they all turned around and looked at me
Ji-young
* pauses awkwardly *
Byung-ho
hi there , I'm Byung-ho
Byung-ho
nice to meet you ....
chan-yeol
hmm? you're so tiny ??
ho-sook
chan!!! that's rude
Han-wool
ya ~ I've never seen someone this adorable ~
Han-wool
it's han-wool by the way , it's nice to meet you here
chan-yeol
I'm chan-yeol , welcom to our school
the students here are very welcoming and kind.i never expected this much hospitality
it was lunch time and we all went outside. I took my time strolling and looking around the school when
Ji-young
e...eeh ouch , my head ...
episode 2 : the other day
I realised I bumped into a student . he was tall and had black hair with red tinted eyes.
Ji-young
ya , I'm a transfer student
Ji-young
but I'll be continuing here
he looked down at me and couldn't help but giggle
Ji-young
huh ? what's wrong?
Ji-hun
it's just ... you're so small
Ji-hun
s..sorry ! I didn't mean to sound offensive, I meant small as in cute
Ji-young
sure , I'll be going now
Ji-hun
where are you headed to ?
Ji-young
I don't know, just taking a walk around school to get used to it
Ji-hun
oh ! lucky you , I was doing the same so...wanna walk together
Ji-young
b..ut I haven't got you're name
Ji-hun
you're Ji-young right, I heard you when you introduced yourself
Ji-young
oh ya Haha, I forgot about that( we're in the same class ? )
I walked with Ji-hun all around the school. he showed me every possible room in the campus and the sports field as well.
the bell rung again and it was time for gym . we all gathered in the basketball court and started doing warm ups .
as I was doing my warm up with ho-sook, a tall white haired guy pushed me over to pass to the other direction and I fell with a thud
Jae
huh ? you gotta problem
Ji-young
can you see where you're walking !?
Jae
ya right , didn't see you there hamster
students
ohooo wow , burn !!! that was harsh man !!
Jae
I'm suprised you even have the guts to talk back
Ji-young
psh! do you think I'm scared of you -- stupid
he walked a little close and gave me a good slap on the face
Ji-young
ouch!! is that how you wanna play it !
I took out a basketball from the store and smashed it on his face
students
Wooooow!!! what the heck dude!! she's sick !!
Jae
two can play that game
he took out a volleyball and kicked it to hit my head. And that's how our feud began.
the students watched us from a distance as we kicked ball at each other , however , we both ended up at the nurses office
Eun-ju
you kids should be more careful next time . you can change those bandages once every 12 hour.
the mean guy exits the room ,shutting the door behind him
Ji-young
what's up with him
Eun-ju
ow Jae is always like that. this isn't his first time visiting the nurse office
Ji-young
Jae , is that him ?
Eun-ju
ya , he has such an aggressive attitude towards girls
Ji-young
aggressive is an understatement. he is mean and offensive
Eun-ju
he might be tense and rough around the edges ,but he's still a good kid
Eun-ju
he only started acting -- well violently when his mother passed away. she passed away due to a disease inherited from her mother
Eun-ju
she was a very wealthy and gorgeous woman ,but his family went bankrupt before his mom's death. the only thing that kept him going was his girlfriend Anna.
Eun-ju
she was small and cute just like you. she was so smart and caring. she used to love and support Jae , but she broke up with him out of the blue and left the country
Eun-ju
indeed , turns out she was only with him for his money ,but she left him once he had nothing
Eun-ju
yup , you must've reminded him of her and he took out his anger on you
Ji-young
that's more harsh
Eun-ju
don't worry, he'll probably think about it and apologise
Eun-ju
now go back and pack you're materials, it's time to go home
Eun-ju
It's Eun-ju , but call me nurse ,it's more comfortable
I went back to the classroom and packed my materials. I placed some stuff in the locker and went outside to spot Hana waving at me as she walked to my direction
Hana
Ji-young , I have good new for ya ! I'll buy you pizza on our wa---. What happened to you !?
Ji-young
oh , it's nothing
Hana
you got into a fight didn't you. urgh-- I'll let it slide since it's your first time in school ,but don't you dare do this again
Hana bought me pizza on our way home and kept talking about her life.
As we reached home . I went to my bedroom and started enjoying the pizza
Ji-young
huh ? an unknown number ?
Ji-young
* picks up the phone *
ho-sook
hi Ji-young it's me ho-sook
ho-sook
sorry for the sudden call ,but I wanted to make sure it was your number
Ji-young
oh don't worry about it ho-sook
ho-sook
thanks ! then I'll call you more often , bye now
Ji-young
* crunch * , this pizza is so good ~
it got late quickly and I was getting tired.my eyelids felt heavy on my eyes and I soon was asleep
I did my daily routine and Hana drove me to school. I arrived early and entered the classroom were everyone was present
students
hi small girl !! Ji-young!! hii !
the students swarmed towards me and greeted with a warm smile. this is getting creepy and suspicious, are they bullies ?
I took a seat and started class .
mrs.V started teaching us some stuff when
chan-yeol
how old are you Ji-young, you look very young
chan-yeol
that's a twist , I thought you'd be 15 or something
Ji-young
Haha, do I look that young
we started a chat with chan - yeol . he was kinda weird, but I liked his jokes which he stated in a serious tone
chan-yeol
hmm...do you think I'm weird?
Ji-young
wh..why would you ask that ?
chan-yeol
it's just everyone thinks I'm a bit out of this world
chan-yeol
my nick name is weirdo Haha
I let out an awkward laugh. chan-yeol sounded as if he's getting bullied by students who call him weirdo. my heart is aching to his reaction right now
chan-yeol
do you feel bad for me or have petty on me ? because I always get bullied .
Ji-young
N..no !! I mean yea ,but i feel sad that experiencing the same fate as I did in my previous highschool.
chan-yeol
don't worry it happens to me a lot that I'm technically immune to it . it would've been nice if I had a friend who comforts me sometimes
chan-yeol
uhh..too bad we can't do anything about it
his eyes look swollen , as if he was about to cry
Ji-young
chan-yeol... do you wanna hang out sometimes
chan-yeol
me ! I..I would love that !
we continued learning the other periods until it was lunch time. I packed materials and stood up from my seat when * clutch *
Ji-young
huh ? chan-yeol -- what's the matter
chan-yeol
nothing -- I just wanna look at you one more time before I leave for lunch
I brushed off his hands and walked towards the exit
chan-yeol
* waving hands * bye Noona :)
Ji-young
* pauses *
•••
(did he just call me noona !? )
episode 3
Ji-young
(did he just call me noona !? )
I simply smiled and went outside . I started walking in hallway when ...
Byung-ho
h...hey there Ji-young
Ji-young
huh ? * turns around *
Byung-ho
I was wondering if you could walk together ... cause I actually want to get to know you more since we're in the same group of literature assignment
Ji-young
I'd love that * smiles *
I spent not only the break ,but my entire day talking with byung-ho. he is the same age as me except I'm 3 months older. has a bright personality and a cute smile and he laughs quite a lot . he's really easy to talk to and I felt like I was talking to a long lost friend of mine
the day came to an end and I head outside to wait for Hana .
Hana
let's go , I'm craving for ramen
I went to a small restaurant with eonnie and we had 2 bowls of ramen each
we then went home and layed on the couch as we entered
Hana
uh~ I haven't had this much food with someone for a while . it feels so nice to have you around Ji-young
Ji-young
come on eonnie, all I do is spend your money and make you tired
Hana
don't say that ! you don't understand what it's like to be lonely.i used to get stressed out and even forced myself to sleep sometimes
Hana
but thanks to you , I can sleep peacefully
Ji-young
I'm glad I could help somehow
I went to my bedroom once it got dark and continued working on my assignment.
I was exhausted that I fell asleep on the desk which I was using to study
it has been a week since I transferred to Yusi-young high. I got along with my classmates and I was able to make new friends as well. the deadline for our assignment was only 2 days away so everyone is busy working on it
Dae-Eun
ok students, go to page 56 and do the exercises
Dae-Eun
* sits down on chair *
Dae-Eun
you'll be taking extra classes for 2 months after the regular class. a schedule will be arranged for you so you'll start tomorrow
I finished my class work quick and submitted it to mrs.v .
chan-yeol
U..umm... Ji-young , how did you do it ?
chan-yeol
I tried to do this questions many times ,but I simply don't understand math
chan-yeol
can you explain it for me
Ji-young
oh sure , you just have to....
I fully explained everything to chan-yeol
chan-yeol
hmm... I still don't get it , can you explain it to me again Ji-young
chan-yeol
oh yaa , I think I get it now...
chan-yeol
I wish there was someone like you who could help with math after class.
chan-yeol looked sad , placed his head down and squeezing his hands
his expression left an aching pain in my heart . I'll feel guilty if I can't do anything about it
Ji-young
why don't I teach you after class during my extra classes , it'll help us both
chan-yeol
really noona !? thanks so much
chan-yeol
* huggs me tight *
I patted his head to comfort him and went out for lunch once time was over .
hyuni
why do you have to take extra classes Ji-young, you're already smart
Ji-young
Haha come on ! I'll become a mega mind with those extra classes
ho-sook
don't say that ! don't you care about us -- we will be crushed by your intelligence Ji-young. I already have bad grades :(
hyuni
ow wow , when did an average of 98 became bad grade ho-sook,* smacks head *
ho-sook
ouchi ! that hurts !
Ji-young
Haha, stop it you two
Jae
I just came here to say sorry about last time. I was already pissed off so I took out my anger on you
Ji-young
oh ,i understand don't worry about
I gave him a thumbs up and he left the cafeteria
ho-sook
Woah !! Jae just apologised, that's so unlike him
hyuni
ya , he never does that to anyone. specially after Anna left him
Ji-young
Anna ? why does that sound so familiar.
hyuni
don't you know Anna . she's the daughter of Liyu-han, the owner of a big tech company
ho-sook
ya , why are you so suprised ?
Ji-young
d..do you by any chance know her phone number or anyone who has it ?
ho-sook
nop Ji-young, we weren't even close with Anna , but I think Jae might still have her number
Ji-young
do you know where she lives ?
ho-sook
n..no ,but I think she's abroad for some time . she'll return next week to this country, but she already transferred to another school
ho-sook
why do want to meet her so much ?
we head back to class ,but Anna's name kept buzzing inside my head
is it really her !? the Anna I know !!
we learned for a while and the day came to an end .I started packing my materials when..
Byung-ho
noona , I'll pack it for you
Ji-young
no need , I'll just pack it myself
I started walking through the hallways and someone accidentally stepped on me from behind.
Han-wool
hoho ! didn't see you there
Han-wool
you're such a cute and nice girl that I want to kidnap you * chuckes *
Han-wool
sorry sorry , I didn't mean to upset you little miss
Ji-young

Han-wool
oooh !! then lucky me ! mrs.v gave me the schedule to hand it you ,but you were impossible to spot
Han-wool

Han-wool
I hope we'll meet again since we're in the same group ,but in case you forgot I'm Han-wool
Han-wool

Ji-young

I exited the hallway and went outside. I waited for a while and Hana finally arrived
Hana
Ji-young my sweetheart
Ji-young
eonnie, why are you excited more than usual
Hana
no reason , only that I'm promoted to model in the upcoming 1million $ contest
Ji-young
ow wow !! that's good to hear !
Hana
as a celebration I'll treat you to the most fancy ice-cream place in town , what do you say ?
Ji-young
ofcaurse I'll be delighted
Hana drove us to the biggest most wonderful ice-cream place in town. it had free choclate fountains and every ice-cream flavour ever invented
I was given created card to spend on my self while eonnie went to the boutique next doors to buy clothes
I bought every single flavour and sat on a table enjoy my meal when I saw a brown haired girl entering the cafe
she looked very familiar and she kept glancing at me every now and then. only after moments I realized it was an unexpected person
I stood up from my seat and rushed towards her .
