I finally arrived in front of the university gate. There were so many people there. I've always hated crowded places. Typical introvert. Hahahaha-------
.
.
"What now?"- At that time I kinda felt like I'm gonna throw up right there. I even wished my mom was there with me.
My legs were shaking a lil'. There was a time when I didn't step outside my house for 5 months.
After my first entrance exam, I stopped talking to everyone, blocked everyone. It was not all unusual, I didn't really talk to any of my friends that much in my last few months of high school. So in past 1/1.5 year I didn't talk much to anyone other than my parents.
I felt like everyone was looking at me and judging me. When I looked around and saw people dressed up so well that my blue jeans and white long sleeve t-shirt which I wore with a over sized brown coat felt really inferior to them.
I was feeling so nervous that my palms were sweating like crazy. The little touch up I did on my face was washed away. I thought to myself,
[Jin-ae you fucking idiot]
I wonder how I would've reacted if I was normal I think if that was the case, I would've looked at everyone and thought, "Wow they are so fashionable" or "I wonder if I could become as smart as them" or
"There are so many colors in this world."
I eventually calmed down a bit and started to look for my department building in the campus map. When I was looking for the Physics faculty building someone called me from behind,
- "Hello....Are you also heading to the Physics faculty building?"
It was a tall, beautiful girl. She was looking so pretty that I thought she can't be talking to me.
But then she said, "Umm.. Sorry I thought you were looking for Physics faculty in the map. I'm going to the same building so I thought I should help you..."
She indeed was talking to me.
When she was talking to me, I was staring at her. She was wearing a black shirt and a skinny jeans. She was tall so it really suited her well.
I snapped out of it and said, "Yes, I'm going there. My major is Physics"
- "Wow... What a coincidence. Mine too.."
[AHHHHHHHH she is going to be my classmate!!!]
- "Then we should go together..."
- "Sure"
.
.
On our way she looked at me side way,- "My name is Gyeong Soo. I'm from here, I mean Seoul"
- "I'm Park Jin-ae. I'm from Busan."
As we walk I can feel and see people looking at her and why wouldn't they? I'm 5.5, I'm not short ...But dude! This girl is like 5.7, she has a pretty face, long black hair, nice figure and fashion sense on top of that!
God really is unfair.
Looking at her I felt like I should grow my hair a little long. I've been with this 2 inch over-shoulder long hair for over 2years now.
- "Looks like you've come here before?"
- "Yeah.. I've come here with my boyfriend"
I hesitated a little, "I see.."
- "Yeah, he is actually waiting for me in front of the faculty building"
"WOW" – I thought it's cute but kinda weird..
She smirked, "It's not cheesy. He is in the same dept. and it's also his first day. He told me to go together but I was late, so he went ahead.
I was kinda shocked. She and her boyfriend are in same university, same department, same year.
My heart felt so warm just by listening ...
- "You guys must be really in love with each other"
She looked at me and said ," Hum~ We've been dating for 4 years now. It was planned, we planned this so that we can be together in varsity too." -saying this with a gentle smile on her face really said it all.
How much she is in love.
At that moment, I envied her a little.
.
.
- "Here we are."
- "Oh..We're already here"
- "Where is that nerd?"
- "Nerd??"
Before I could say anything, Gyeong dashed
towards something. I was startled..
When I turned around to see what in the world she
was doing, I saw her punching a guy-----
I was confused as hell. I didn't know what to do.
[Should I wait for her until she's done beating(?) him or should I just go inside and later talk to her in the class]
Well, luckily I didn't have to decide. She dragged that guy in front of me. It was awkward, I said, "Hi-"
Both of them looked at me.
Gyeong then looked at him and said, "I met her at the main gate, she was also heading here so I accompanied her. It turned out she is also in our dept."
The guy stood straight and then bowed, "Hello.. My name is Nam Ye-jun. I'm Gyeong's boyfriend"
So this is her boyfriend. He is a little taller than her, has specs and wearing a black t-shirt just like Gyeong.
I thought, "Haha.. lovey-dovey couple, I see"
- "My name is Park Jin-ae and I'm from Busan. I'll be studying with you from now on. It's really nice to meet you" , [Did I over do it?]
- "Woah~ you don't have to be so formal we are classmates you know"
We were just greeting each other, when Gyeong burst out, "HEYY answer me, why were you smoking? You said you'll not smoke anymore.."
- "I said I'm sorry. Don't get mad, it's our first day~".Ye-jun looked at me, " I can call you Jin-ae, right? You say something to her...."
But before me saying anything, the look Gyeong gave me right away, literally had my soul left my body. I said,
"S-Smoking is not a good thing"
The result was, before heading to the class Ye-jun had taken two more blows. I was the eye witness. thought to myself,
[I better not piss this girl ever in my life]
.
.
.
Then the three of us headed to class together.
We laughed and talk on the way. After so long, for the first time, I genuinely felt like,
"I've made some friends."
