When I first see my school uniform on Saturday I'm not that blessed. I mean first of all my love for skirts probably could be bigger. I'm just more of a Jeans person. Sorry. But the colour well what should I say? It's orange. I imagined I don't know black or navy blue, maybe red but orange? "Give it some time Y/N. It will be fine. Believe me. I needed some time as well, but everybody looks like you, so don't worry." Lee said after she stopped laughing. "By the way your reaction was priceless. I thought you were informed about your new school." I look at her. "I thought so too, but obviously I missed something out."
This morning I'm in shook when I finally see myself in the mirror. "And done." I'm satisfied with my final result. I just have to give it a try. "Y/N!!!" somebody scream. I run into the direction where the scream came from and I find a pouting Lee sitting on the counter in her bathroom right in front of a huge mirror. "What's wrong?" I ask completely surprised by the situation. "Help me! I can't put on the mascara properly." She whines. I smile to myself. "Oh boy I thought something bad happened". I go over to her taking the mascara. "Why are you so fast?" she asks while looking at me still sitting on the counter. "Well, I don't need tonnes of make-up on my face like you. Plus, I don't even know what all of this stuff is." And that was true. I just use 3-4 things and I'm done. I can't name every product, but I can put make-up on others very well. I already did that for other classmates and also for Lee. If you tell me where to put it, it looks still good. "You should be a make-up artist." Mumbles Lee as she took a look at the mirror. "Thank you." I look at her and smile proudly. "Or any other artist. I saw your drawings they are awesome. Just like your photos. You can be proud of this and you shouldn't hesitate to show them somebody." She looks at me and smile back. We stare at each other for a while. "I will." I say after a moment. "Good. Let's go downstairs I'm hungry." Lee jumps off the counter and walks out the bathroom. I watch her as she leaves, look at the mirror, sigh and follow her.
The breakfast went by fast. Lee's parents are already at work which means that Lee and I can do breakfast as we want which is usually quick and easy. Minutes later we leave the house off to school. We take the bus because no one can drive us by car. Lee really wants to make her driver license, so she can drive a car on her own. She is 18 in Korea and that's when it hit me. I'm 18 too in Korea. Officially I'll turn 17 this year, but who cares. Anyways as we walk into the school we are greeted by some of the teachers and Lee guides me to our classroom. Some of my new classmates are chatting with each other and some rest their heads on the table and sleep. We just sit down as two of Lee's friends come up to us. "Yah, you have to be Y/N. Nice to meet you I'm Ahri and that is Nuri." The girl to her left waves. "Hi nice to meet you." I smile at them. They sit down in front of us. "We are going to be a funny quartet." Nuri announces proudly, and we start laughing at her comment. "
"Hey, Y/N do you go with us to the fan signing in three weeks?" Ahri asks. I look at Lee confused. "W-what fan sign?" I stutter. "Well I..." Lee starts but is interrupted by Ahri. "Bangtansonyeondan has a fan signing event in three weeks and we will attend it. It's going to be my first, but Nuri went there twice and said it is awesome. So how about you? Are you joining us?" Ahri was so excited. I can see the glow in her eyes. Lee starts over again before I'm able to answer. "I didn't know if you liked them or if you even knew them that's why I haven't told you yet."
"Are you joking? Of course, I know who they are. Probably not like you but I have heard of them. Also, I remember drawing a picture of one of them. What was his name again? ... Jimin?" I'm a little bit pissed, and she notices the tone in my voice.
"Can you draw a picture for me too?" Nuri requests suddenly. "I already think about what I can gift them. A drawing would be perfect." She looks at me with big eyes.
"If you send me the picture you want", "Deal" she answers right away. "Y/N takes photos very professional. So maybe you could take photos if you want to attend the fan meeting with us." Lee utters. Nuri and Ahri look at me excited and I just nod. A scream of happiness comes from their throats. "Great. Then we are 4." And with that the lesson starts.
The school day went by pretty good and after it I already knew which subjects I was good at and which not. Arts is totally mine just like English. Maths is not that great. Lunch was actually better than I thought. I figured out two things during the day. Number one teachers do not really care when their students sleep in class and number two a lot of girls do their make-up in the breaks in between the lessons. Which is kind of funny when someone comes up to you and ask if you can help her. I did that too. School was done at 3 pm and Lee wasn't sure if she should stay for self-studying. In the end we stayed together until 8 or 9 pm. We went home afterwards. As we arrived we were alone which was not surprising. We ate something and washed up. I went straight to bed just like Lee. And that is just how my first two weeks looked like.
