New Life


It was 5 in the afternoon and I woke up from a nap to my dad telling me to pack up cause we're moving to South Korea. Ever since my older sister passed away 2 years ago nothing was the same, my parents divorced and separated and they each went their own ways. I of course wanted to stay with my dad cause he said he was moving to South Korea to start new and I wanted a fresh start too. We had to stay here a little longer because my mom wanted me too so she fought him at court to have full custody of me but my dad ended up winning.

My dad was born in Korea that's why he decided to go back to his home, the only reason why he's not there is because when he moved to California he married my mother and had me and my sister rose who is 2 years older than me.

We stayed and lived in cali for 10 years so me and rose can learn English and from there we moved to South Korea and stayed there for 3 years which was where I attended middle school. My dad had to teach me Korean so I can understand what other people are telling me and I'm glad he did thanks to him i now know how to speak it well.

For my first 4 and half years of high school We went to Mexico, my moms actual birthplace and where I'm currently living at the moment and thanks to mom I learned Spanish. In the second year of staying in Mexico rose left with her boyfriend and never came back to us until dad got a phone call about what had happened to her.

Dads real name is Min Jun but he doesn't really like it so I call him papa Min and my moms name is Min Sun yes I know almost like my dads but she actually likes her name so I just call her by that.

My sister's name is Min Rose she would've been 19 but she passed away at 17 dad never really told me what happened to her he always said he'll wait until I'm big and now that I'm grown I don't wanna bring it up so I rather not ask.

From my parents I'm the smallest child well not that small anymore but I'm the last one I'm Min Lana and I'm 17 I spend my life drawing, reading and listening to music. My sister used to call me a nerd and I would get mad for it but now I miss it. Ima miss sharing my room with her in Korea. I'll definitely miss sneaking into her bed in the middle of the nights because of how scared I was of the dark.

I'll admit every since she left us I wasn't the same anymore. Everything I hated slowly became my favorite things, like the dark. I love being in the dark, its my favorite place.

I hated alcohol and now that's what I drink everytime I think of my sister, my parents didn't know until they smelled a water bottle full of vodka I left in my room.

Dad scolded me but he wasn't being so harsh cause he felt my pain but mom, mom didn't even speak to me for a week but i wasn't bothered. She's the least person who I wanted to speak to for blaming my dad for everything.

Now I'm sitting in my room crying cause rose won't be coming along, I know It's been 2 years but I can't get over it. I know someday I will, I know it'll take time so I have to try and be patient.

I heard knocking from my door so I quickly wipe my tears

"Lana? Are you ready?" -dad

"Yes I'm going" -Lana

"Alright you might want to open up so I can help with your suitcases" -dad

"It's fine I got it" I say looking at them. "Never mind I need your help" I yelled back realizing I had so much suitcases.

We put our things in the car but before I got in I looked back at our house for a whole minute and got a flashback of me and rose running inside when we first moved in.

Dad looked at me and looked back up at the house too. I got in and fell asleep for a while and woke up when we got to the airport. I grabbed my suitcase and went to get chips at a vending machine while my dad bought tickets.

After 1 hour we got in the plane and flew to Korea and luckily my dads friend Sung-jin was waiting for us in the airport to give us a ride to the place papa Jun and me are staying at.

"Uncle sungjin" I yelled and ran to him

"Wow Lana you grew so much" -SungJin

"Really?" I giggled and he hugged me

"Welcome back home brother" SungJin told my dad while hugging him. He's not really my uncle nor my dads brother we're just super close so we call each other that

After we drove home sungjin asked me a question that left me confused

"Lana guess who is coming" -Sungjin

"Who?" I asked

We heard knocking coming from the door so my dad went to open.

"Chanyeol?" -Lana

"Yes?" the guy said

I ran and hugged him super tight

Chanyeol was the first guy I met when I came to South Korea in my middle school days. We were so close cause our dads would always be together working and papa always left me at his house so he can babysit me.

Chanyeol was 4 years older than me so obviously my dad trusted him. Chanyeol and me spend too much time together that he started developing feelings for me and I started to feel the same way but never got the chance to tell him cause we moved out of Korea to Mexico.

I don't think his feelings for me are still there this happened when we were younger so I'm pretty sure they vanished cause mine did go away. I hope he moved on from back then.

"Your still beautiful" -Chanyeol

I blushed a little and thanked him "your still handsome too"

He invited me to go out and eat so I agreed and went out to catch up on things.

"Are you going to stay here temporary like before?" -Chanyeol

"No actually this is gonna be my permanent home" -Lana

"Wow really? That's so good" -Chanyeol

"Yes it really is" -Lana

"How's your mom?" -Chanyeol

"She's great she moved on and now lives in Phoenix, Arizona with her new husband" -Lana

"Oh" -Chanyeol

It was quiet for a minute until he broke the silence

"Lana I'm so sorry about your sister" -Chanyeol

At that moment I looked down I couldn't make eye contact with him I felt like if I answered back I was gonna start crying my eyes out so I just bowed  saying "thank you" in a low voice

Chanyeol's Pov

Lana's like a doll, long hair, light brown eyes that look green in the sun she's just a beauty.

Im already spacing out on her and she barely came 30 minutes ago

Lana's Pov

Chanyeol hasn't even moved it's like he froze in his sit.

"Channie" I said while swinging my hand on his face

"S-sorry I spaced out" -Chanyeol

"I can tell"

"Why do you still call me that" -Chanyeol

"Cause why not" I said giving him a big smile

"Come On Lana lets go home" chanyeol answered back blushing

As he drove to the house he asked me something I forgot about

"So are you going to Seoul high school?" -chanyeoul

"OH MY GOD I HAVEN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT" -Lana

"Aren't you about to finish?" -Chanyeol

"Yes if I go to Seoul high school I'm gonna have a couple of months left" -Lana

"So then go" -Chanyeol

Jesus Christ I really hope I see my friends from middle school there I really don't want to be all by myself.

"We're here" -Chanyeol

"Thank you for today it was nice catching up" -Lana

"No problem goodnight sleep well" -chanyeol

"Goodnight take care" -Lana

I walked in the house and see my dad reading a newspaper about a body they found that was bitten by some animal

"So papa...." I said

"Yes honey?" -papa

"You have to sign me up for school" -Lana

"Oh shoot I forgot remind me tomorrow morning" -papa

"Alright" i said heading to the stairs

"Wait lana?" -papa

"Yess dad?" -Lana

"I had an interview in the police station today" -Papa

"WHAT? DID YOU GET ACCEPTED?" -Lana

"Yes cause they need more police officers for the crazy accidents about the animals that have been going around attacking people" -papa

"Woah that's crazy but I'm so proud of you" I said kissing his cheek

"Oh stop go to sleep now" -a happy Jun said

"Alright sir goodnight" -Lana

The next day........

Lana's pov

"Lana wake up lets go sign you up for school" -Papa

"Let me get ready"- Lana

"This reminded me about the time your mom and I had to get you ready for preschool" -papa

I giggled at what he said and so did he
I changed and put on black jeans and a black shirt with converse and went downstairs to have breakfast, from there my dad drove to school to sign me up.

It was a Monday so the kids at Seoul were in school, I'll admit I was a bit nervous Even tho I'm used to being the "new" kid at school.

I got off the car and there was a lot of kids staring at me weird. When we got inside my dad told me to sit out here while he spoke to the principal in the office. I was playing with my fingers and suddenly a voice from behind me started calling me.

"Lana?"
