(3) Orphan

Me and Mina wore our sweaters and wrapped the mufflers around us. We got out of the room as Mina locked the door and stuffed the keys in her pocket. "Are you sure that we are not forgetting anything?" I asked her. "Pretty sure," she replied me.

We went out of the apartment and walked towards the university which was not too far from the apartment. In 10 minutes we reached the university. "I'm tired," I said. "Must walk fast you lazy person otherwise the guard won't let us enter." "Hey!" I scoffed. It was really really cold and I felt so sleepy. I regretted taking a shower.

Finally we reached our class. -Oh thank God the class was warm- "Seriously it is much better," Mina said. So as planned I and Mina joined XeeJin. "Sup dude!" said XeeJin. "Sup!" I said as I high fived her. "Hey siesta!" said Mina to XeeJin "So are you ready for the test?" XeeJin asked. "Jin everyone is panicking about this test, but I'm damn sure that it isn't the about the test," I said. "Then what?" she asked again. "It is only because of Professor Kim. If it wasn't him, everyone would not be so tensed." I laughed.

"Dude I hate that Professor Kim is our class teacher and-"Jin didn't finish what she was saying when a boy shouted, "Oye! Everyone! On your seats. Professor Kim's coming" And that's when the class was like in an auto correct mode. In a minute everything was arranged.

Professor Kim then entered in the class with the test papers in his hand wearing a grey coat with white shirt and with his cold expression. He stood in front of the wooden podium and put the test papers on it. "Good... Morning.... Professor Kim....," we all sang lazily as we all stood up. "Is this the way to greet a professor?" Professor said, "Sit down!" he said quickly, but a bit more coldly.

"Ahemm...if you all are done with your chit chats so can I take the attendance?" And the he began calling names. I, Jin and Mina were talking slowly, waiting for this class to get over. "Hyun XeeJin!" called Professor. "Present Professor," said Jin. "Jeon Jinsoo!" "Present!" I said when he called my name. "Mina Lee!" After a while attendance was over. It looked like professor was actually shouting our names

"As we are done with the attendance, so please come to my table and collect a number from the bowl. People with the same numbers will be sitting together for this test and if I see any disturbance, I will make them permanent partners." said Professor.

-Just great-

I went to Professor's table and picked a chit from the bowl. Professor glared at me and I gulped. I opened it and it was number 1. I searched for the person having number 1. I sat in front of the row as it was my number I waited for my partner to come. Someone tapped my shoulder and I looked around.

-I think this day is a total shit for me-

It was no other than Jasper YungJim, the number one demon of the class and I am not gonna sit with him and ruin my kinda good day. "Give me space madam," he said. I rolled my eyes and gave him space. Professor Kim started to give us test papers one by one and I took my pen. I looked at Mina who was sitting with Zora and Jin was sitting with Yuri.

We began our test. Luckily I knew all the answers and if it wasn't Mina I couldn't have made through it because the questions I was trying to leave, those questions came of 7 marks in the test.

In 20 minutes I completed my test. XeeJin handed her paper as soon as she completed it and was fiddling with her pen. I looked around and saw that Mina had also completed her test while rest of them was doing the test. Jasper was struggling in the test. -That demon deserves it-

We handed our test papers to Professor Kim and left for recess. Today there were only two classes, one with Professor Kim and other one with Professor Jihun. I was pretty sure that I did the test well. I went to cafeteria and took my usual seat with Mina and XeeJin.

"So guys, what are we going to eat? I'm hungry as hell," said XeeJin who was always hungry. "A plate of Biryani for me and um.... Mina what do you want to eat?" I asked Mina. "A plate of Biryani for me too," she said. "Okay then. I'll be back," XeeJin said and went to get our food.

She came back with two plates of Biryani for us and a plate of Kimchi for herself. She sat down as we began eating and talking. "Fevy was lucky today," said Mina stuffing a spoon of biryani in her mouth. "Why?" I asked.

"Because she was sitting with KaiHee and they both cheated so amazingly that they even fooled Professor Kim." "Wow! I mean how!? No one has ever fooled Professor Kim before and how did they managed to do that? Hey! Look! Professor Jihun is heading towards the class, so better not get late," I said as I picked up my bag.

I entered the class with Mina and XeeJin and we sat together. Professor Jihun was already sitting on his usual seat. "Good morning Professor!" we said together. "Good Morning Miss Jeon, Miss Lee and Miss Hyun but where is the rest of the class." Professor asked. "We don't know Professor," said Mina. "Well then have a seat. I have little work for you," he said.

-Time skips- (-At night -)

"I'm feeling sleepy, don't you?" I asked Mina, yawning. "Well....nopesee," she said. "What are you even doing on your phone?" I asked. "Checking out new posts on Instagram," she replied. "You look at these posts. I'm gonna sleep," I said as I grabbed my blanket.

"Hey no! Wait! I want to sleep with you today," she whined, putting her cellphone down. "Ok, but why?" I asked her. "Just because I want to because you are my one and only sister. Can't a sister sleep with her sister?" She pouted cutely.

-Those words touched me-

Mina was currently living in Seoul with me because her parents and brother had moved to some place in America for their business, leaving her here to study and I... (sigh)... have no parents, no siblings and don't even know about any of my relatives. I don't know where I was even born.

Life never gave me a chance to meet and see these important figures of my life. I felt tears forming in my eyes thinking about that. Mina came and hugged me. I hugged her back. "Thank you" I mouthed. Mina smiled. "You're welcome sister." All these years Mina and XeeJin were there for me and are no more than sisters to me. XeeJin lives with her parents in Kunzite Colony near the uni, but still she stays by my side.

"Ok then, let's sleep together," I said smilingly. Mina got her blanket and lay on the bed beside me. Today I slept so peacefully without nightmares or any other things. A tear rolled down my cheek and Mina noticed it. She wiped it with her thumb and said the sweetest thing ever: "You will find them one day and that's my promise."
