SCORE

Nam-su took a taxi home, she was tired, tired of the life she had to live but she couldn't do anything about it.

She reached home at around 7:43 Pm and lucky for her, her mother wasn't coming home today because she had urgent work to attend.

she didn't even eat dinner but just went straight to her bedroom. as soon as her body felt the soft mattress, she took a flight to Dreamland.

The next morning her eyes were swollen and she was not really in a good mood. but that didn't stop her from going to school.

she entered her car and drove off, today was Wednesday and on Friday, her school were writing their mid-term examination, so she had to study hard although she didn't feel like it.

the whole day in school, she was lost. she didn't talk much and didn't pay attention to class like usual. Even her friends and teachers noticed her.

But when they knew what happened at the party, they just decided to leave her be, they didn't want to disturb her.

After their biology class, while all the students were leaving the biology lab, Mrs. Wang called on her.

Nam-su walked close to Mrs. Wang desk, "yes ma'am."

Mrs. Wang looked closely at Nam-su's eyes, and she could see the emptiness in them, "Nam are you ok...you haven't been yourself all day, and everyone is worried. I know it may have something to do with what happened last night but you don't have to bug yourself because of that idiot [she is referring to U-Haul] ok."

hearing that, Nam-su smiled slightly and then said, "I know ma'am, and I'm fine. you don't need to worry, it's just that I haven't had enough sleep these past few days that's why I'm like this."

"well then if that's the reason, then take a day off for today and tomorrow. you don't need to work in the library after school, just go home ok. I'll talk to the library keeper and I'm sure she won't have a problem with that. you can also give yourself a break from studying too. I know the exams is this Friday, but it's biology you are haven't first and trust me it's really simple."

hearing that, Nam-su just laughed along with Mrs. Wang, "ok ma'am, I will take a day off but not a day off from studying. I'll be on my way now."

"oh ok." saying that, Mrs. Wang turned back to what she was doing and Nam-su left the biology lab.

the same way she was today, she also was the next day. her face alone could give you the message, 'stay away from me ' so every did as that.

finally the day for the exam came, and as Mrs. Wang said, they had biology first but it wasn't as simple as she said it was.

well maybe not simple for other students, but feel r Nam-su it was a piece of cake.

After school, Nam-su waited for everyone to leave before going home.

she got home at around 6:50 Pm and to her surprise, her mom and her personal Maid were their seated on the couch.

they were laughing so Nam-su guessed they were watching something funny.

she came close to her mother and Greeted them both.

seeing her daughter, Su-An smiled. Nam-su mother was a very beautiful woman. she had jet black short hair which was nicely combed.

her beautiful blue ocean eyes and milky skin, she and San-Ra were a complete replica of themselves. they looked alike, while Nam-su looked like her father.

her mother wore a beautiful-free dress. and Aunt Bo wore her normal Maids uniform.

"good evening Ma." saying that, Nam-su bowed at her mother. [note in Korea, bowing is a way of greeting and saying goodbye].

"how was your day today at school dear." Nam-su, "it was ok Mother."

hearing that, Su-An smiled and said, "I heard you did your mid-term examination today, biology right."

"yes mother."

"so why don't we see what you got, right." hearing that, Nam-su was a little confused, "well Ma, the results hasn't come out yet and it won't be out until the exam is over."

Su-An nodded to her daughter's word, and then said, "yes you are right, but I spoke with your headmaster and he did a little exception. he gave me your score for biology exam, and it's right here."

saying that, Aunt Bo went into the house and brought with her a white envelope. she gave it to Nam-su's mother, and she opened the envelope.

Su-An opened the envelope and so a white paper sheet inside, she brought it out and her eyes widen with what she saw there.

Nam-su and Aunt Bo seeing her expression started to shake, they were scared.

Su-An threw the paper and it landed on the floor, beside Nam-su's feet.

Nam-su bent down, keep up the sheet and brought it towards her face to see what was written.

she got 'A+' in biology but the only problem was that, the score was the number of '89'
