[Morning Breaks]
When their professor walked away the 5 girls reunited again. They stood in Leah’s seat surrounding her to not escape.
: So what is it?
One of the girls called.
: Yes tell me!
: Leah!
: Tell me too.
Everyone voiced out. They wanted to know Leah’s new trouble.
Leah was a problematic child. As always, Leah was spoiled by her brother and her friends. She grew up without caring about what’s seems wrong or right.
[In short, Leah is innocent]
Ji Min-hye, So Ole, Shin Nami, and Gu Hae-yan. These four girls surrounded her.
These are Leah's friends. They lived differently and eat differently. In fact, Leah was the simplest of them all. These four girls have different standings in life and experiences but they stood all days together with Leah, no matter what pain and problems.
[Comforting her and making her happy.]
: My Leah!
It was a cute voice.
[Ole So]
She is a very obsessed girl. She didn’t lack anything but wants to be loved and spoiled too.
[One of the great descendant of billionaire father’s daughter, Ole Su]
She dislikes hate and pain. Leah and the girls always think before they speak or give a call.
[A sensitive creature]
She would either cry or weep for the whole day. She wouldn’t talk or smile. She is Leah Su first best friend, Ole Su.
When Leah looked at her face she wore a dimple, she is cute with her short black hair and cute nose.
Leah stared at Ole while she gives a smile.
: So what is this paper all about?
: Tell us, Leah!
It was a loud voice with a definite tone.
[ Ji Min-hye ]
That person is Leah's big sister, Ji Min-hye. In fact they bore the same age but Ji is taller among them. She always acts as the big sister.
[A fighter]
She is the first person who will stand up for Leah’s mistake. She couldn’t stand seeing Leah getting hurt just like Leah’s brother, Lance. She wore a cheerful smile and vibes that can make the whole group happy. She is Leah Su last best friend.
Then Leah looked at her with a worried face.
: I am sorry, big sister Ji.
Leah replied to her.
She was called as Ji because of her name, Min-hye Ji just like Hae-yan Gu.
Leah with a troubled face looked at them.
: Well... you're all wrong.: I just wanted to say that our new transfer guy is real!
Leah said with a hint of excitement.
: What do you mean, Leah?
Gu asked her.
: Did you remember remember our thesis?
Leah asked.
: Ah!
The four girls shrieked at her call.
: Uhmm, is there something wrong?
Leah called them again. She was confused by their expressions.
: So what kind of thesis do you mean?
Gu asked her.
Of course, the rest of the girls are expecting Gu to speak. Gu is one of the brightest student in their department.: So where are we? Can you elaborate in details?
Gu asked her. She wanted to fix the problem.
Then Leah looked at them.
: Come here closer.
Leah talked to them secretly. She doesn’t want anyone to hear it, because that fictional guy is here.
[Jin Park]
: So, that's all.
Leah explained everything to them. But not at all, Leah told something except the crying scene, hugging scene and the book details. Leah just told them that Jin Park is a fiction character from the book she read. They wanted to expect something but Leah is sure crazy.
: I don't trust you, Leah.
Gu said. She doesn’t believe Leah’s ideals about this foretold fiction. She hates fiction the most.
: Me too.
: I am too.
: I guess I am?
Ji was the last to speak.
This is crazy for them to think that a character will pop out like magic and this guy is in front of them.
They looked at the new transfer guy but he is sleeping.
Everyone distrusted her because of one reason. Leah is the cause of problem. She always makes problems every day and they always helped her.
: Please eat 3 times a day, Leah.
Nami said with a victorious smile. She didn’t expect this turn of events will be her last laugh.
: Yeah...
: My...
: You may have read too much.
Everyone gave their most soothing advice.
: But girls ---
Leah said as she opens her bag. Leah wanted to see it for them. She wanted to prove them that she is not lying.
: Stop it, Leah.
Gu said as she stopped her.
: OK.
Leah said as she wore a sad face.
Ji and Ole can only accept this time.
: Leah is sure spoiled.The two thought that out.
Then the girls walked away except Nami.
Leah sat back at her seat with no resentment. She just wanted to tell them but how come? They wouldn’t believe her because fictional are fictions.
: Of course they won't believe me. How come a character would really appear?
: Aren’t they called fiction, right?
Leah also thought of this. She believes it was true but her heart was left unanswered, clueless and troubled about this mystery.
[Mysterious]
: Maybe it's not true? I'm sorry. I'm sorry; it's my fault to tell this kind of thing. Okay?
Leah replied to herself that she was wrong. Then looked at her friends and smiled.
The girls saw her smiles. That made them sighed and happy.
: Yes, you will never do that again.
Thought Gu, Ji, Ole and Nami from their seat.
However, Nami felt wrong.
: I am sorry, Leah.
Nami said to her as her deep resentment faded.
: I am sorry too.
Leah said and looked at their clumsy face.
: Ha ha ha...
The girls laughed together.
Leah looked back at former guy who named Park Jin. It was embarrassing to her part. She mistook him for someone as the fictional character named Park Jin also.
: I hugged him in the station!
Leah blushed while thinking about this.
: Ting! Ting!! Ting!!!
The bell rang.
: Leah!
Ji called her. It was because of 20 minute breaks. They wanted to buy some food at the cafeteria.
: Yes, I am coming!
Leah said. The stood up and ran to them.
[Cafeteria]
[A restaurant made for any person who wanted to dine in or eat something. Good food is being serve and more delicacies.]
As they went to the cafeteria each of them wore a smile, except Ole So and Leah Su.
They both looked at each other and made a stone, paper and scissor play.
Leah readied herself to face Ole with her fast hands.
[Ole vs. Leah]
Winner: Leah
: I win!
Leah shouted in joy. She won at Ole’s fast hands. It was a five out of five win. For those who get five wins consecutively, that person will be considered as the winner.
: You cheated Leah!
Ole pouted. She wore again her puppy eyes.
: He he he.
Leah grinned about this Ole problem.
[She is very cute]
: What about this, both of you will pay half for each food.
Gu said to the both of them. She always solved the problem for them.
But one of these girls wore an irritating face.
: Can you just give me the money!
: Can you not play! I am hungry.
Nami said with annoyed look.
Nami Shin lived frugal because she doesn’t have anyone. She has no money and shelter to live before. Until she met Leah, Gu and Ole, her life change since then. In short, Nami lived alone since she was a kid.
[Nami is an Orphan]
Nami relied to Leah and Ole as always. However, Nami worked as a working student in school. That lessens her friend’s burden about her. She also doesn’t want to rely to them to much especially to Gu.
Then everyone bought their own food. Ole bought many foods like burgers; ham cheese burger is her favorite. They also bought some drinks.
However, Gu differed among them. She is a vegetarian. She doesn’t like to eat junk foods and unhealthy foods. She has a healthy diet.
There’s nothing more to expect about Leah trays. She bought donuts especially the Ube flavored one. Her drinks are made of Ube too.
[UBE]
[ Ube is a root crop. It can't be easily bought in the market because it is harvested once a year or more. Ube is another term for violet. Not all Ube's are violet. Some are coloured in white. Ube can be served when boiled or as long as you cooked it longer than 30 minutes or more. Ube usually used as a flavoring, and other purposes like making cakes and other delicacies. It can be also processed as a special flour.]
Ji just ordered a normal food. A burger and a milk.

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪ [ Chapter 8: Misunderstanding ] ▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪[Inside the classroom of 3-E]: Ting! Ting!! Ting!!!The bell rang.In the empty room, the clock slowly ticks. Upon this room, a man was sleeping. He was asleep without even knowing about the bell and morning breaks.[A man without anyone but himself]Students passed by in this room, but they were not responsible for waking him up.[Jin Park]Jin Park did not do anything. He just sleeps there without doing anything. He heard the ringing bell but did not do anything. He did nothing.[Alone and Uncertain]A loud voice suddenly rang in his mind. : Hey!: Hey!It was calling him. Jin Park suddenly responded. He opened his eyes slowly and wiped his blurry eyes.: Who are you?Jin Park asked.: I’m sorry.That calling voice replied to him.Then his eyes became clearer. He saw a beautiful woman who shakes his heart.: You!He shrieked upon her beauty. It wasn’t an admiration but a fierce voice.: I’m sorry.That woman said.[Leah Su]Af
[ Chapter 9: Apology ]Leah ran away from her classroom. She trembled from head to toe. Of course, her heart beats faster.: How can I face him now! Why did I do that! I'm really stupid! I already said that fiction is not true! How can he? A character came into life? : Isn't he?Leah asked herself.: Ah!Leah stomped her right foot.Leah kept blaming herself that it was her fault. She was annoyed that it was her mistake. So good so far, she has no face to face him.: Leah!Someone called her.Then Leah looked at where the voice came from.: Big sister Ji, Gu, Ole and Nami!Leah muttered in a shaky voice. She feared that her friend will yell at her.When the group came to her they huffed from running. They wanted to know why.: Huff... Huff...The four girls gasped for air when they reached her.: Why are you following me? Leah asked.: Idiot! Nami shouted at her.: Dumb!Ole said to her.The two yelled at her. Ji and Gu didn’t know what to say also. They just stood there without kno

Leah stood at her seat. She can see Jin, he is sleeping. He slept unfazed and unperturbed in the classroom.Leah doesn’t know what to do. [Approach him or not]Leah didn’t know what to do this time. Her worried heart says to go but her mind is not. Both of her conscious mind and heart conflicted. Then someone pushed her.: Ah! Leah looked back to the person who pushed her.[It was Nami]: Go! Go! Go! Fighting!Nami cheered her up. It was not just Nami. Ole, Ji and Gu smiled at her.: This!Leah is not excited since this is a serious one. Her worth is about that dog’s life. She was saved because of this guy; Jin Park saved her for the sake of his dog.Then Leah slowly stepped her heel and toe. She doesn’t want him to wake up.It took her 30 seconds to reach him.: Uhm...Leah muttered.: A
[ Chapter 11: What’s in the box? ]The five girls walked back to the classroom again. They couldn’t help but look at that guy.[Jin Park is Gone]Jin is missing and nowhere to be found. He is not in his seat anymore. The five girls didn’t know but they guessed something.: Does it hurt?They muttered. It was just a dog but it has life and freedom to live also. Animals has place in this world too.They sat at their seats while waiting for the next subject. 2 hours later.[The class ended]Leah who kept muttering didn’t know what to do. Jin Park did not come back.: I hope he did not mark his heart with hate. I hope he will not condemn me. I hope he will forgive me. I hope his dog did not die.[She was hoping]Leah who is in the classroom waited for him to come back but he did not.: Ting! Ting!! Ting!!!The bell rang.: The morning class ended without him.Leah said.

When they reached the classroom, Leah who found someone felt relieved.[He is back]Then Leah walked in. She sat at her seat and looked at the guy. Jin was asleep. She really didn't know why Jin always sleeps and never talk to anyone.: Why is he?Leah muttered.Then the other girls also walked in and sat at their own seat. [Afternoon Class]The students also appeared. Each of them who walked in sat. They haven't talk or anything else.[Silence]The room went silent because there stood the most hated professor.[Jean Jackobo]Age: 56Height: 5'9Eyes: BrownHair: WhiteIt was their professor in intermediate math, Prof. Jean Jackobo.[Intermediate Math][Intermediate Math is the upgraded version of Elementary Math.

When she went inside the room was still the same. She looked at her desk. Leah touched something.[A book]Leah touched the book without doing anything. Her smiles just curve downwards.: Isn't it? Was it all a dream? Why is he...Leah asked herself. But she can't believe it.: He really looks like Jin Park. Leah said.
