As the English teacher miss Cordelia entered the classroom students greeted her loudly. Miss Cordelia is a young woman in her late twenties with bright large eyes and an attractive slim built. She is engaged to the history teacher Mr. Andrews. It is rumored that ms. Cordelia is a secret kpop fan and doesn't talk much about her fascination about kpop culture but enjoys listening to kpop songs with her headset when she's on break during school. Once some students heard kpop song from her office when they were passing by as her headset was accidentally disconnected, and she hurriedly turned the volume down. The students spread that news to others and soon the whole school knew about this and many students secretly laughed at the matter as most of the teachers shows their dislike about kpop whenever the topic is brought about. However, none of the student ever brought this matter in front of the teachers including ms. Cordelia.
As ms. Cordelia proceeded with her lesson she suddenly noticed that Kirin was whispering something in Nina's ear. 'Kirin, what are you whispering about?' ms. Cordelia asked Kirin as she gestured toward her to stand up. Kirin got flustered and stood up,' Ah, I was talking with Nina about the lesson you were discussing, ms. Cordelia.' 'Well, just now I was discussing some less used vocabulary. Kirin seems to be interested much in vocabulary. So Kirin, could you tell us what the word 'serendipity' means, and how may we use it?' ms. Cordelia asked.
Kirin went pale as she didn't know what serendipity meant. After half a minute of silence ms. Cordelia asked,' Who else can answer the question?' Olivia raised her hand instantly. ' Okay Olivia, tell us the answer,' ms. Cordelia fixed her eyes on Olivia. ' Serendipity is a noun the meaning of which is- ' An aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident,' it's a type of fluke. Good fortune or a stroke of luck can be used as synonyms for this. We could use the word when we find something good without looking for them or in cases of unexpected good luck. For example, we could see the use of this word in the sentence- ''Alexander Fleming's discovery of penicillin is a cited example of a serendipity,'' Olivia concluded her answer.
A smile formed on ms. Cordelia's lips,' Now that's what we call a studious student, everyone let's give a round of applause for Olivia.' The whole class cheered for Olivia while Kirin's face turned red.
' Now Kirin,' ms. Cordelia fixed her gaze on Kirin,' Did you get it that if you are interested about some topic, gossiping in the class wouldn't help you, rather you should focus on the lecture and study at home more about your topic of interest like Olivia does. If you don't understand any topic you should ask me, or you could even meet me at my office after the class, but you should never whisper on someone's ear during the class, no matter what the topic is. Do you get it? ' Yes, ms.Cordelia,' Kirin answered as she held her head low and sat down at ms. Cordelia's gesture. Her expression turned dark as she shot her burning eyes at Olivia who is already focused on ms. Cordelia's lecture and has no time to pay attention towards her.
After the class Nora looked at Olivia with a big smile , 'Yo, Olivia how did you answered the question so well? I didn't even know what that word actually meant and I'm pretty sure none of the other students knew it either.' 'Seriously?' Olivia furrowed her brows at Nora,' Didn't you heard Jiminshi's 'Serendipity'? It isn't even new.' 'I did hear the song but who the h*ck goes to search what that word meant. I heard the melody and enjoyed it but as for the topper, huh,' Nora put her hand on her temple dramatically,' You even see kpop music as study materials.' Olivia laughed at Nora's expression as she prepared for the next class.
