On my way, I started to plan my day. So after classes, I spent my time in the library until 2.30 p.m. then went to my part-time job. I will work there from 3 p.m to 8 p.m. Usually, after 6 p.m there will be a lot of people. Even sometimes, I have to work there until 9 or 10 p.m. I was really happy, but then I remembered I had a group project. Anyways...
- This is my bus
- ok. You go ahead and I will go with my driver. He is waiting for me.
- bye.
- bye
It was obvious that I couldn't go with him. If in school someone finds out about my real age, they won't allow me to study and get a graduation certificate. It is really strange, that, my brother's adoptive parents want me to study there and not even in a class that my brother, instead of lower class. It is not that bad, I will graduate after two years. But if they want me to study here, what benefit will be for them?
- hey
- ah. Sorry?
- Is it okay if switch places, please?
Then I glanced at the girl who was talking to me. Her place...
- ok. Let's switch, then!
I saw a bully with ocean eyes. His name is... I don't know his name. To be honest, I don't know anyone's name from school. I merely remember that new kid's name. Maybe Richmond? Ok. I gave up. I will find it later. I sit down and say hello to him.
- hi
- hello
- Thank you for yesterday.
- I didn't do it for you.
- really?
-...
- Anyway, why are you helping me?
- What do you mean?
- You are a popular bully
- and yet you don't know my name
- How do you...
- If you knew my name you won't respond the same?
- What do you mean?
- I'm sad that you forgot about little Tai Tai
He spoke while smirking and looking at me.
I remembered that name. Our next-door neighbour. They had a child with a difficult name and I came up with the idea of calling him Tai Tai. The most important thing is why his hair colour is black. It was yellow? And I like it so much...
- So you remembered me?
- of course. I do. I also remember your brother and his name.
- ok. Now please stop it. I'm full of embarrassment- I just want to disappear from here. - Anyway I'm happy to see you. I didn't know you studied in my class.
- If you are happy why aren't you hugging me like when we did like last time? - his face was telling me that he knew nothing and wanted me to tease him more. Stop it already! I'm dying here!
- ok. Come on Tai Tai.
- Should I tell you my name?
- yes. Please.
- I will tell you once, so remember it. Tai Yoo Kim.
- Why did I call you Tai back then? Your name is not that long.
- because I changed it. - he was smiling and it suited him... But if I saw it again I may start to vomit.
- anyways. Don't call me brother in school.
- I won't call you like that anyway.
- then?
- Like when I was a kid I will call you hyung!
- ...
* "Hyung" means big brother in Korean. I know that much.
-Why you are looking at me like that?
- Never mind. And don't tell anyone about my brother.
- ok.
- Don't call me Hyung, instead of this call me Kim.
- But your real name is Felix.
- I know
- happy to know that you know your name!
- ...
- Actually, is it okay if I talk to you?
- What do you mean?
- You are always invisible in class.
Yeah, I almost forgot about that.
- yes. Actually, from today I will start to communicate.
- Why didn't you do it in the past? I know you like chatting.
- I had some problems. But now I'm free!
- then come with me to the cafe today.
- No I cannot.
- You said you are free.
- you won't understand.
- but you have to spend time with me too. I missed you hyung!
- I will. But now we arrived at school.
- boring...
- Hey why you are a bully?
- What the hell?
- what?
- I don't want to talk about it.
- Do whatever you want then.
- I will tell you, but when we meet!
- ok. Now let's go to class.
- ok. But before that, I will go somewhere.
- why?
- If I look at your little brother you will know.
- oh... Ok then.
I saw my brother looking like fire from where he sitting. I think he was chatting with his friends. Maybe he thinks Tai Tai bad kid. I will tell him later.
As soon as I entered the classroom I saw a new student.
Shit. I don't know his name!
