Paramnesia || Na Jaemin

chapter 6

I start getting ready early morning, preparing myself for my new job.

I was excited, today Ae-ra told me there would be a class of kids coming in. Walking downstairs I bowed politely to everyone saying good morning. Since we moved back, we have gotten everyone settled into school and work so now today was the day we were all going back to society.

"Hye-jin ah, come sit." My mom laid down our plates on the table as she settles my brother into his seat.

Sitting down I gently smoothed my skirt in place as my brother walks down and sits next to me. I look at him as he looks a bit nervous.

"Dae-ho whats wrong ?" I looked at him concerned because he isn't really nervous most times, he likes to play confidence.

"I'm nervous, I mean this is Korea which is totally different from America. What if no one likes me ?" He starts to play with his jeans, a sign he is anxious

My mom walks back in with a smile as she ruffles his hair "you'll do fine, just act as you always do. It won't be any different"

He whines as he fixes his hair smiling a bit "ok.."

After sitting down, my grandma walks in gracefully and sits down at the end of the table. "Good morning"

We all say our good mornings again to her and start to eat "Thank you for the food~"

After eating we began to clean up and get ready to leave. "Have fun with your day everyone~"

I walk out and began my journey to my work, the good thing was that it wasn't a far walk to work which I was grateful for. I breathe in the air as I look around in content. Since I've been back, everything has been going smoothly and swell.

But I still can't help but wonder about when I will meet my mysterious person. I wonder how his features will look like, how they will feel in my hands as I caress his face. How soft his hair will be, how he will look like next to me. If he'll be as dreamy as he is in my dreams.

.....I wonder if he'll be like jaemin..

Shocked I stopped walking from that sudden thought

'Why would I think of him when it had nothing to do with him ?' Although they are quite familiar with each other and that pull.... The same pull as how my grandma had explained. Maybe... just maybe but I can never be too hopeful. For all I can know, it could be my mind making it all up.

I shake my head and continue my walk which wasn't long as I shortly arrived. I opened the door and greeted Ae-ra.

"Hello~ good morning Ae-ra" she looked over in glee and bowed while greeting

"Hello! Good morning~" she walked over and pulled me over to where I would set my stuff and helped me before the kids would come.

"Are you ready ? The kids will be coming shortly.." She looked at her watch as we finished setting up for the kids

I nodded my head as I held my hands together swaying a bit in eager "mhm, I'm excited to meet these kids"

She smiled at me and jumped a bit happily "I'm glad ! I knew I was right that we'd get along so fast" I tilted my head a bit looking at her

"You keep saying that..." she grasped my shoulders while looking at me

"And I was rightt~" she walked away to the door when the school bus arrived outside. I collected myself and decided to ask the questions later

Opening the doors, we happily and warmly greeted the kids who walked inside while greeting us back.

These kids looked about 4-5 year olds, excited they were chattering while looking around in wonder. I covered my mouth as I seen two kids trip over each other trying to sneak away. The teacher thankfully caught them in time hence why they trip over one another.
