บท 4: Choi Dae-hyun [4]
Some days before my birthday it was our graduation ceremony of middle school. It really wasn't hard to say goodbye to everyone. Yes, it was me who pushed people away. I was afraid of betrayal. I was afraid they'll stab me in the back. I don't even remember how I became friends with these two guys. That's old memories. Some good some bad. When I became a trainee under S.Z Entertainment. My classmates started acting so nice. I'm not a fool who won't get that they are so fake. Maybe some of them were genuine. But I just didn't want to put my trust in them.
Me and my friends decided to attend a prestigious performing arts high school in Seoul. Me and Jun were trainees so that school was a good choice. As for Hajin his dream is to become an actor. I won't brag that he's successful. He's still young and he's taking small steps towards his acting career. He's actually training in acting right now. Also he just recently signed with an agency. And fun fact that it's my agency. They also recruit actors.
So, let's see. Is today anything special? Yes, today is special. Because today is my first day of high school. My mom took a day off to take me to my school. After all it's my first day.
"Dae honey. Good luck on your first day. I'll come to pick you up too."
"Thanks mom, but there's no need for you to come. Since you took the day off I suggest you take some rest."
"I took the day off for you. So I'll be here when school ends. I'll drop you and your friends at the academy."
"As you say your highness."
I have to say this. This school is huge. I need to find the hall room. After going back and forth I finally found it. Thank goodness I wasn't late. Upon reaching there I saw Jun and Hajin waiting for me by the entrance.
*huff huff*
"Sorry guys, this place is huge. It's going to take a while for me to memorize the map of this school."
* Hajin grabs Dae's hand and drags him in *
"It's ok. Come fast."
I looked around but couldn't find Jun anywhere. But he was here just a moment ago. Meanwhile, Hajin drags me to an empty seat and sits beside me. I looked beside him and I saw Jun. Guess he came first to save us seats. The welcoming ceremony went well. The principal of our school gave a long speech. And the student who scored the highest in the entrance exam gave his speech as well. After a series of speech and an opera style performance from the seniors, we were handed a welcome card and a small but beautiful bouquet of flowers. After we were assigned classes me, Hajin and Jun sighed of relief. Because we were assigned to the same homeroom.
"Let's go to our class."
"Bro I'm so relived we are in the same class."
"I have to tolerate you two monkeys for another year." Hajin says as he laughs.
The classroom was neat and clean. We take the seats near the windows. Because you can see a lot of stuff outside. Fun and weird stuff.
Hajin and I, we sit together and Jun takes the seat behind us. One by one all of my new classmates takes a seat. After some time our homeroom teacher comes to greet us.
"Hi students. I hope your day is going all good till now?"
"Yes teacher." Everyone one says.
"Now let me introduce myself. I'm Shin Yuna, and I'll be your homeroom teacher for your freshmen year. I'll be teaching you guys English. I'll take your attendance now. Please pay attention."
She starts taking attendance. I really wasn't much interested in getting to know my classmates. But one person caught my attention.
"Lee Arin?"
"Present teacher."
That familiar name, that angelic voice and that face I can never forget. It was her. In all these years I never forgot her. She was my first friend. Also, my first love. I thought I don't have that baby crush on her anymore. But I was so wrong. Seeing her after all these years I think I like her even more now. She's still so beautiful. To be honest she's even more beautiful now. I never got to tell her bye before leaving for Seoul back then. Is she angry because of that? Does she still play the piano? Is she still as reckless as before? Did she miss me? Most importantly does she remember me? Too many questions are running inside my head. Also I was staring at her blankly. I hope people didn't take me as a pervert. I didn't even notice when the teacher called my name.
"Choi Dae-hyun? Is Dae-hyun present?"
Jun hits me in the back of my head."What the-? Why did you hit me?
"The teacher is calling your name you deaf." Hajin whispers.
"Is Dae-hyun not here yet?"
"I'm here teacher." I stand up hurriedly.
"Where were you?"
"Here? I'm sorry teacher."
"No problem. Sit down."
What an embarrassing first day. But wait, I have to talk with Ari. But we used to be little kids back then, and it's been years. I'm feeling too awkward to go up and start a conversation. I kept stealing glances at her direction. Jun being Jun he immediately caught up that something is wrong. First lesson for that day ended. And I was still looking at her.
"Dae? Who are you looking at?" Jun asks as he smacks me in the back. This guy sure have a bad habit of hitting me. Why did he sit behind me? At this rate I'll die soon.
"Bro stop hitting me out of the blue. It hurts."
"You do realize you look like a pervert looking at those girls like that right?" Hajin says calmly.
"I wasn't looking at anyone."
"Yeah right? I'm blind then."
"Now speak." Hajin says in an intimidating tone.
Sometimes he can be so scary.
"Ok I'll tell you guys during break."
"Sure?"
Ahhhh.......that scary Hajin again.
"Yes, one hundred percent sure."
"As you say."
I told them the whole Arin thing during break. Jun said he'll talk with her if I'm feeling nervous. Before I could say something Hajin told him not and let me deal with my own problems.
"Dae we'll help you if you need. But you have to talk things out with her first and in this case she has all the right to be angry at you no matter how you see the case."
This is what Hajin told me. We always listen to him. After all he's the smartest among us. Jun still insisted on talking to her first, but we managed to talk him out of it. I hope I gather all the courage I need to talk to her as soon as possible. I have to clear things up as soon as possible.
