I Want to be friends with you | L.K Adaptation

Chapter. 1 - Little Snail

As she walked through the long corridor and approached the lead teacher's office, Aunt Bae approached the head teacher's office, Aunt Bae grasped her little daughter's hand and was about to knock on the office door, when she caught a voice coming from inside.

"There's no need to contact my parents. In my house, I can handle this by myself".

"Student Jungkook, you are an intelligent child, you should understand that scolding the teacher in class will affect her reputation".

Then, she heard the raspy voice of a little boy, who gravely said, "She's also a professional teacher; therefore, she should also understand that making a mockery of a little child's stuttering in class isn't humorous and has dire consequences. As a professional educator, I believe that you, Teacher Lee, realize that I just pointed out her lack of respect".

Aunt Bae found interest in this conversation, so she stayed a little longer.

"Teacher Ahn meant no disrespect; she had good intentions, but the method was less than stellar. Forget it, I'll speak with her again. You can return to class now".

The door suddenly opened and a little boy, who wore a small suit and tie, came out lightning fast. When he noticed someone outside, he instinctively looked up.

Only then did Auntie Bae see his appearance clearly. He was really handsome!

Lisa, her little daughter, timidly hide behind Aunt Bae.

After the boy left, Aunt Bae smiled and said to her little daughter, "That kid is amazing isn't he?"

The little girl lowered her head and clenched her tiny fist. She appeared hesitant and gave no response.

Aunt Bae wasn't disheartened by her lack of response, but rather, she entered the office with her little daughter.

When the head teacher saw Aunt Bae, she stood up, smiled , and said, "Sister Bae, I was wondering when you were going to come".

The head teacher had been Aunt Bae's university roommate and her best friend for four year. Even after graduating, they still stayed in touch.

She heard that Sister Bae had a daughter who was about to enter first grade. Who was about to enter first grade. Uncoincidentally, she also taught the first grade, so she asked her friend to send Lisa over, in order to assist in her care.

"Is she Lisa? So cute she looks like a little baby doll". The head teacher walked over, but Little Lisa scurried behind Aunt Bae.

The head teacher saw her reaction, and remembered what Sister Bae had mentioned before. She said to Sister Bae, "Class will start in a little bit. Let's take her to the classroom".

Aunt Bae Nodded, and then led Lisa to the classroom.

When she arrived at the classroom's door, Aunt Bae squatted down and said to her daughter, "Lili, don't be afraid and get along well with the other children. I put a packet of dried meat into your schoolbag. Share it with the other children, okay? Aunty will pick you up in the afternoon".

Her eyes were a little downcast. Although Lisa was in first grade, this was the first time that she has entered school.

Little Lili clenched her hand tightly. She wanted to stretch it out to reach for her aunt, but to no avail. For a while, she stood there in hesitation, before finally entering the classroom.

She slowly traversed inside and found the seat arranged by the teacher.

After sitting down, she glanced at the door of the classroom again. Aunt Bae was looking at her with reddened eyes.

Little Lisa averted her eyes and anxiously opened her hand, which revealed a piece of candy.

This morning, Auntie looked a little down. If someone felt unhappy, they should simply eat sweets to uplift their spirits. Whenever she felt sad, she would often sneak out to eat candy.

During the trip, she didn't have the courage to give any sweets to her aunt, until they reached school. Little Lili frowned and felt very useless.

Jungkook looked at the little girl sitting next to him, who was different from all the other irksome children in the classroom. This girl was very calm and quiet. A t first glance, she appeared like someone, who would achieve great things.

Jungkook felt this kid was pretty good. He wanted to recruit her into his inner circle.

Thus, Jungkook extended his hand with the attitude of a businessman., A smile radiated on his face, as he took the initiative to speak with her, "Hello little one, my name is Jeon Jungkook. I will be your classmate from now on. What's your name?"

Little Lili was taken aback and whispered, "Lisa...."

Mewo? Jungkook felt that it was unusual. Why did she reply like a cat when he asked for her name?

Her voice resembled that of a grandmother's, but was also strangely cute to him.

The bell rang, and Aunt Bae, who stood outside, watched her little daughter talk with her classmate. This sight slightly alleviated her worries. It seemed like her daughter still shared common interests with her peers. Aunt Bae could now leave with her heart freed and allayed from any concerns.

Little Lisa watched as her aunt left. She felt a tinge of sadness and she hide the candy away.

Little Lisa has never attended kindergarten. Although her aunt taught her at home, she was still very much frightened. Thus, she took out her new notebook and started to write diligently.

Jungkook looked at the noisy, little children in the classroom. They still haven't come out of the placidity to his tablemate, who engrossed herself in writing. His eyes glinted with admiration.

"A good seedling. With a little training, she'll become reliable and talented in the future". He thought.

He can start by making this little doll his business partner!

Jungkook observed his new tablemate meticulously. She was quiet and taciturn. Her gave was always buried in the book, until school ended in the afternoon.

Jungkook nodded satisfied. After all, fortune shone upon those who loved to study.

However, he felt some dissatisfaction towards her. Her movements were slow, like a snail. But she was very organized for someone, who did things like a snail.

The school stools were uniform and thus, weren't too tall nor low. But the little snail was shorter than her peers. When she sat on the stool, she found it difficult to do her homework.

Pouting her face, she carefully cushioned the stool. Then she sat on it again.

When the second period was over, the other students began to play with their friends. The other children constantly hounded Jungkook with requests to play with them, but he refused.

He was very popular with this group of little ones.

Little Lisa sat in her seat and glanced secretly at her neighboring classmate, who was praised by her aunt.

She wanted to talk to him. She slipped her hand into her bag, and rummaged for the packet of delicious dried meat, that her aunt had made and bestowed to her.

She could befriend the other students by sharing the food, her aunt had said.

Little Lisa felt the dried meat, grasped it in her hand, and wanted to offer it to her classmate.

But....she didn't dare speak.

Soon, the class bell rang and little Lisa looked at the dried meat in her hand. Frustrated, she placed it back inside her schoolbag.

This class originally taught Korean, but because of Jungkook's ireful words, Teacher Ahn wept and didn't come to class. Teacher Lee came in as the substitute teacher.

Teacher Lee looked at the two little ones, who sat in the front row, especially Lisa. She felt relieved, when she saw her obediently doing her homework.

Jungkook, who was precociously intelligent and cared for other children, would definitely not bully her.
