Chapter 1: "Simplicity"-Page 2

"Let's walk to class together.. oh my, I'm so happy! Did I really do good, Dahyun-ah?"

"Yes you did, Nara.. I just don't understand why aren't you trying out for the drama club yet.. you have the talent, you know.."

"I know, I just need to bide my time.. "

The good friends reached the classroom on time, the other students were either seated quietly or rumor mongering. Soon enough the class got started.

-----------------------------------------------------------

(KRIING!!)

Nara: (Stretches mightily) Sigh, what a day! Mr. Kozuke's teachings are getting harder each day!

Dahyun: I know but we won't be highschool students forever, it's all bound to end..

Nara comfortably put her arms around Dahyun's shoulder as they walked out the school halls, the classes in Changgu Highschool usually start by 5:00 am and ends in 1:00 pm; some students go out with their friends or enjoy leisure time alone considering all the time that they have. But it's different for Dahyun:

Nara: I know this new place; people say that they sell incomparably delicious beef ramyeon— let's go there, Dahyun-ah!

Of course Dahyun would love to go there, I mean; who on earth could resist a good, savory ramyeon?

But Dahyun instantly frowned despite of her wants:

Nara: Why the long face? if you're worrying about wasting your allowance, don't be! It'll be my treat!

Da: No it's not that, Nara.. I also want to eat that tempting ramyeon and hang out with you to have fun.. But..

Nara took her arms off Dahyun's shoulders and did a famous dance step that said: "Neomuhae!" and she sighed in disappointment:

Nara: ... You have deliveries again..

Just as when Dahyun was going to reply to Nara, her cellphone rang loudly; making Nara cover her ears:

Nara: My gosh, did you use a loudspeaker for the ringtone?

True enough it was one of Dahyun's customers; a woman with a loud voice could be heard from the receiver:

"Hello, I need those hair curlers that I asked you to buy with my money..

I need it, like really!"

"I've already ordered it ma'am, I'm actually about to go to your address.. "

"That's good, hurry!"

The woman dropped the call and Nara was shocked at how Dahyun was still calm after that:

Da: Gee Nara, you look like you think I'm going to die— Don't worry, she's not as bad as you think..

Nara: Where is that address this time?

"In Yeonhui-dong.. "

"Wait isn't that too far?! - Yah!"

There was nothing that Nara could do because Dahyun rode her bike like the how the wind passes by, she just stood there frowning and frustrated for her hardworking friend.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Oh there you are, I'm glad that you made it in time! come in.. "

Dahyun came in the dormitory gingerly while

holding the packed that contained hair curlers in her small hands;
