Coming to the campus, i let out a gasp seeing the beauty in front of me, it was even more beautiful than in those k-dramas and in my parents love story.. and now I'm gonna live that part for making my own story. I was happy but somewhere in my heart I still have a guilt leaving my parents alone in Seattle and coming back here, that happens when you have so much empathy and when you overthink even if everything is going good in fact great.. you yourself gonna make some sort of bad in it. But my parents know my plans very well even before shifting to Seattle 'that no matter what I came back to Seoul the place where I belong'. Dad supported me every time and my mom too but... she's a bit more emotional than him and the thought of me living apart from her is always hurting her, but when the time of my departure she just accept the fate.
Walking through the hallways of the university I was having a little nervous feeling in my stomach maybe because I haven't had something filling except coffee and that made my digestive system doing some weird stuff, but my eyes continuously scanning everything possible ignoring that feeling of my stomach.
In no time we stood in front of the administration office, waiting for any of us to knock or open the door so we can go inside
"Bridget knock"
"No you knock flora"
"No you" flora said again, and then suddenly I got an urge and i knocked as i stared straight at the door.. beside my best friends staring into my soul feeling dumbstruck, yeah alright I love taking impulsive decisions and regret later.
Thirty seconds passed then a minute passed no one responded, bridget slowly pushed the door as she tip toed in the office and found no one there. "Woah, seems like miss yang got a heart attack because there's no way in hell she's not present in her office at this hour" bridget said jokingly on which flora replied
"She won't get a heart attack, she gives everyone a heart attack, and probably she's somewhere doing this right now...but now what should we do, wait here till she comes back or come here later?"
"I don't know girl"
"I guess.. let's just wait here for another few more minutes" I said as they agreed. Few more minutes passed us standing like this in front of her office silently and right when we heard someone's footsteps approaching us
"You need to check everything in the auditorium-" the brunette haired lady in her mid thirties said to the other women who were following her steps, maybe she was her assistant, i assumed.. As she looked at us she questioned with a rough voice which almost sounds High-pitched to my ears "What are you doing here, girls" her face was emotionless with her eyes heavy from the sleep deprivation as if she was working for so long.
"Miss Yang, umm... she's moon, the transfer student f-" flora tried to speak but she was already cut off by the principal
"Ohh yeah, i remember. Come in the office" she stated making her way inside the office as her assistant followed her. I was silent because yes she did look scary and now everything slowly makes sense.
As we followed her inside the office she questioned me on which I took a great moment to respond to because I was lost in my dreamland. "Your full name?" She asked with the same voice.
"Umm...Moon Collins" She was checking some files which were piled up on her well organised desk.
"Yes Miss moon i heard you're parents also graduated from here?" She asked another question, eyes scanning those files and then she picked one maybe mine, i mean of course mine
"Yeah you're right, both my parents are the international students transferred here from their individual countries" i replied and she nodded her head smoothly still looking and flipping the pages of the file in her hands.
"Alright" she said passing the file to me "you just need to fill some basic information here, and yeah that's pretty much it" then she looked at me.
with carefully reading everything on the form i filled what i needed to before passing the file back to her as She takes the file from my hands and then asked "And about your dorm-" before she could complete her statement bridget spokes cutting her off
"Miss Yang, our dorm have a room free she can stay with us and also we're best friends since childhood, it will be so pleasant if she stays with us" she said passing a cute smile to the principal which was slightly annoyed her, I can tell the look of her face
"Yeah, I was gonna say that, anyways thank you for your concern Miss Bridget, and can I ask you why you both are not present in your classes since few days" My eyes widened on her sudden question as i felt a tension build up,
"Um..Miss Yang...I was not feeling well for a few days and Bridget was taking care of me, I was having a hard time walking or standing properly dew to weakness" flora exclaimed trying to convince the brunette lady best and little did it worked.
"Okay, but as far as I remember you both already have a roommate, what about her why she leaves your dorm suddenly?" The other lady asked who was silent the whole time, And I have no clue about this, i tried to peek from the corner of my eyes without moving my head just to see my bestfriends fucked out faces and yeah they are one shade lighter than the original skin tone
"Miss Yang, miss Hong, we don't know about this" flora spoke hesitating a little
"maybe she found a new friend and was uncomfortable with us" Bridget exclaimed
"We're just assuming" and both said together with a small laugh, their faces was much paler than before.
"Hm..okay...y'all can leave now and you can join the lectures from Monday Miss Moon. And..oh yeah, today is the freshers party I hope I'll see you there"
"Yeah sure Miss Yang" i replied smiling softly and bowed down a little before making my way out of that suffocating office
"She's a true evil witch, she almost crushed us with her snarky behaviour" bridget stated while she was leaning against the wall exhaling some suffocated breath
"I guess she's not that bad" i said and flora replied
"Woah, bad? she's evil, wait you'll see her reality"
"Enough of this nonsense I need my vitamin peace, my hoonie baby" bridget said walking towards the main gate her movement was faster than usual.
"Vitamin what?" I was confused and flora said
"Here we go again" i looked at her with a confused look she locked her arm with me before pulling me outside. "Let's go, and meet the boys"
____
"There's no way she's acting all desperate for her boyfriend. I mean, I know she's obsessed, but-"
"Babe, they share the same exact brain cells. It's like if they didn't meet one day, they might die. I know Bridget has a crack in her brain, but Sunghoon? He's whipped like cake icing."
"Hoonie baby!" Bridget spotted her 6-foot-tall boyfriend and his friends roaming around the campus. She called his name, and like a magnet, he ran towards her, lifting her into a hug as they both giggled softly.
"I can see clearly now," I admitted, feeling a sudden wave of disappointment hitting my face because my mother never allowed me to date anyone. "Anyway, I'm happy for Bridget. They're the best."
"How's my princess?" Her boyfriend asked, cupping her face and caressing her cheek with his thumb.
"Aghh, that witch pissed me off."
"Miss Yang? Her brother starts acting the same as her... he's evil too," he said, laughing.
"Not like her. She always provokes him, pinching his nerves, and then he acts insane," Flora stated. I didn't know who they were talking about, but I was curious to know the whole story.
"Hello, gorgeous," an unfamiliar voice spoke as they tapped on my shoulder. When I turned, I saw him. "I'm Jake. Pleasure to meet you," he said, extending his hand for a handshake.
"Oh, hi... Jake," I said, extending my hand to complete the handshake. Instead, he turned my hand and gently pressed his soft lips against the back of it, making my cheeks turn red.
"Jake, seriously? Can you be normal for once? We're trying to make a good impression here," another man said, pushing Jake slightly. "Don't mind him, dear. He's just like that. By the way, I'm Sunoo," he said, smiling at me, and I giggled as I greeted him.
"Sunoo, you're doing the same thing," Jake yelled.
"What? I'm just greeting her. You're scaring her."
"Enough, both of you," another man walked between them, his hair cherry red. "I'm sorry on behalf of these two. They're just too excited to meet you. I'm Heeseung. Nice to meet you."
"Oh, I think I'm just a popular person among you all," I laughed, feeling embarrassed.
"Don't be embarrassed, babe. They're just like that," Flora said with a sarcastic edge.
"Yeah, way too excited. They've been talking about you in the dorm as well. I'm Jay," another one greeted.
"And I'm Niki."
"He's the youngest and the most mischievous," Bridget said, pointing to Niki, who just laughed.
"I'm Sunghoon, you already know... Maybe," Bridget's boyfriend said, his voice calm as Bridget remained in his arms.
"Yeah, your girlfriend talks about you a lot," I said, chuckling.
"Really?" He looked at her. "Maybe she just loves me too much."
"Yup, exactly," Bridget said, softly pecking his lips.
"Guys, these things should've done in private."
"Oh, don't be jealous, Jakey," she said as they all laughed.
"How was your journey from Seattle?" Heeseung asked as I exhaled deeply and replied.
"It was exhausting, but seeing them gave me an energy boost."
"Jay hyung is also from Seattle," Niki said as Jay nodded, his expression thoughtful.
"Oh," i exclaimed, my brows furrowing as a flicker of recognition crossed my face. "Wait... why do I think I've seen you before?" I asked, his eyes narrowing in curiosity.
"I was thinking the same," jay replied, a hint of surprise in his voice. "Are you the same girl from grade 5?" he said, his tone reflecting his own realization.
"Whoa, yes, I think so,.... Jay, you moved to Korea?" I asked, turning to Jay.
"Yeah, it was a great journey, but I didn't think you were the same person when I heard about you," Jay said, a smile playing on his lips.
"Same... you've changed a lot," i observed as my gaze softening as remembering our past encounters, we were kids thought
"Do you guys know each other?" Flora asked, her curiosity piqued.
"Yeah, we're in the same grade when I moved to Seattle, and he helped me a lot because I had no friends and I struggled a lot academically," i explained, "But eventually, he moved out a year later."
"Oh," Flora said, nodding in understanding.
"It's good that you both already know each other," Heeseung said, smiling warmly.
"Yeah, but that was only for a year, and we were kids back then. Honestly, I forgot a lot of things that happened back then," Jay exclaimed, chuckling lightly.
"Exactly," I laughed, feeling a sense of ease settling in as we continued chatting and getting to know each other better. I found myself really enjoying the company.
"Oh, have you eaten anything yet?" Jake asked, his voice laced with concern. Suddenly, my stomach growled, drawing attention to the fact that I had been neglecting my hunger for quite some time.
"Noo," I admitted with an awkward smile creeping onto my face.
"Moon, this is not good for you. You've just come here, and already you're neglecting your meals. Huh? This is so wrong; you should take care of yourself," Sunoo lectured me in a manner reminiscent of my mother whenever I skipped meals. Despite feeling scolded, I couldn't help but feel loved and appreciated by their concern. Each of them was so thoughtful, and I felt lucky to be surrounded by such caring friends.
"Oh, shit, how could I forget about lunch," Bridget exclaimed, holding her head in frustration.
"Because you only had eyes for Sunghoon," Flora teased, her tone playful yet teasing.
"Yeah, whatever... FLORA," Bridget retorted, her frustration evident as she playfully scolded flora. "You should've remembered this even if I forgot."
"Hey, don't come to me; you've said I need my vitamin peace and ran straight out of the office." Flora said, not losing any chance to backfire her with her replies.
"Hyungs, noona let's go and have lunch, and let them have their fight with each other here" niki said as i chuckled and before nodding my head.
"Okay, but let's not eat in the cafeteria and go to our favourite place" jay suggested, as sunoo replied
"Yeah please, I'm starving too and the food in that place is always so good"
"Were going, complete your fight and then come and have lunch together" sunghoon said as he walked leading all of us to the cars.
"Wait we are coming" flora and Bridget shouted from behind.
"Hurry up, I'm starving" I said chuckling over their behaviour.
"Bills on Jake because he flirted" heeseung said, laughing.
"I'm not the only one you both also flirted with her" Jake said, sulking as I just laughed.
