I Really Didn't Know

REALITY STRIKES
“Who’s Kris Wu?” I asked. I didn’t hear that name yet.
“Curious about him?”
“I just saw that many of fan girls have their placards with ‘Kris Wu’ on it.”
“You should avoid that guy.”
“Why?” I asked him.
“Did you always wear that kind of dress? I mean that kind of outfit?” he asked me rather, trying to change the topic.
“Uh… my outfit?” I repeated. He nodded as a sign of agreement. I am wearing faded blue jeans with matching white sneakers, a boyish military design top, and a cap. I don’t have any make up on my face except for a moisturizer.
“Uh, yes. I always wear boyish attire.” I told him.
“It suits you.” He said.
“Thank you.” Then we stop in front of two huge buildings. “The right one is the acting building which held all the acting subjects. While the left one over there held all the music and arts subject. The third building right there…” he points his index finger at the back of the two huge buildings.
“Is the sports area where all physical activities are held.” He looked at me.
“Uhh… yes Sir! I got it!” I said with a salute.
“Nah, stop that.” He said.
“Why? I’m just saying that I got it!” I laugh. He looks forward to the way. “Don’t be so serious Kyungsoo. It will make you look ugly and mature.” I said while laughing.
“Really?” he turned to me with a curious expression.
“Yeah. That’s true. So always smile. It will brighten your day, I promise.” I said with an action of raising my right hand as a sign of promise. Then he laugh.
“Okay.” He said.
“There. You look more handsome when you smile.” I tell him.
“Come on, let’s have lunch.” He said.
“Okay.”
As we enter the huge cafeteria, people keep on staring at me. Is there a problem with me?
“Just sit here. I’ll order at the counter. What do you like?” Kyungsoo asked me as he prepares the seat for me. “Uhhh…” actually I can’t order anything. Looking at the menu. I don’t know what are these kind of foods.
“Uhh, whatever you order. It’s the same with mine.” I just said to him.
“Okay. 5 minutes. Wait me here, okay?”
“Okay…” he head towards the counter while I’m sitting alone in a table for two persons. I check my phone and there’s a text message from mom and Yuri.
~
From: Mom
Hi Yumae! I guess right now you’re already in Seoul! Have fun there okay? Eat delicious and healthy foods. Study well! Mom and dad loves you!
~
I can’t help but to smile after reading my mother’s message.
~
From: Yuri
Yah! Yumae! Take care of yourself okay? I’m not there by your side so please be independent okay? Learn how to use make up okay? I love you and I’ll miss you. Do well in CPA!
~
I smile at Yuri’s text. She’s always telling me to learn how to use and put make up on my face.
The cafeteria is so beautiful as I look around, its color theme is beige and brown with golden lights and a very elegant table cloths. The place seems so romantic at night. But people still keep on staring at me. It feels so awkward.
I see Kyungsoo walking towards our table with a tray on his hand. I helped him to put down the foods on the table.
“I don’t have any idea what do you like so I ordered…”
“PANCAKES!” I said with excitement. Some people look in our direction. Did I say it too loud?
“Uhh… no, that’s not a pancake. It’s a French Sweetened Cake.”
“But it looks like a pancake…” he sit down in front of me.
“Is it your favorite?” he asked, pertaining to the pancake.
“Yeah. I love pancakes.” And I smile.
“Next time, we’ll eat pancakes. But for now, eat those.”
“Okay. I’ll wait for that day.”
SOMEONE’S POINT OF VIEW:
I saw her! She’s walking with Kyungsoo. I guess she’s a new girl here in CPA. I find her quite interesting. She styles boyish, with faded blue jeans, white sneakers, a military boyish top, with a cap. What makes me curious about her is that she doesn’t have any marks of make-up on her face. I already took 24 shots of her in my camera. I wanted her to be the main subject of my exhibit for the next two weeks.
I knew it. They’ll be having lunch. I sit five tables away from them and from my place, I can see her face clearly and naturally. After a little while, Kyungsoo head to the counter to take some orders. This is the perfect timing to take good photos of her while she’s alone. She picks up her phone from her backpack’s pocket. I guess she’s reading a text from someone then she smile. I luckily captured it easily with my camera.
I’ve been looking for my aspect four days ago. My stolen photo exhibit project seems to be difficult and at the same time, very challenging. It’s like I’m a spy taking photos of someone. I don’t know but this girl seems to have more charms in camera. She looks so natural and demure. She always smiles and laughs without any hesitations. She and Kyungsoo were talking while eating. Kyung Soo seems to be different with her. He supposed not to laugh and talk too much, but right now, he does.
I stand up from my seat and I walk pass by that girl’s eyes. I know she see me, I looked at her and smile. Hope I’d give her my best first impression.
YUMAE’S POINT OF VIEW:
The French sweetened cake really tastes like an ordinary pancake…
“Kyung Soo, why everyone seems to be staring at me? Is there something wrong with me? Is there dirt on my face?”
“Nothing’s wrong with you. You should know that people in CPA always look for new students.”
“Like me?”
“Exactly.”
“Should I change the way I dress up? Do I look lesbian?”
“No. It suits you. And you’re too pretty to look like a lesbian, okay? Just wear whatever makes you comfortable than wearing something you don’t like.” I smiled to him. I really appreciate that he likes who I am. Someone pass by in front of me. He’s a tall guy with a black trimmed hair with a camera on his neck. He was looking at me then he smile. Uh? I watch over him until he was near to the exit door. Who is he?
“Kyung Soo, do you know him?” I point my index finger to the direction of the guy.
“Hmm, who?” he turn to where I was pointing. But the guy already left.
“Uhh, nothing. Never mind.” I’m curious to that guy. He seemed to be nice.
After lunch, Kyung Soo takes me to our dorm. The scholars’ dorm is color beige, too light right?
“Dorm has four categories. The royale which is color black, next is the empire which is color brown, next is the stars which is color gold, then us scholars which is also known as the butterflies that is color beige. You’ll be staying at third floor, room 407. Here’s your key. You’re baggage are already there. Take a rest and I’ll see you tomorrow. Call me if you have any questions. Here’s my number.” I take the keys and his calling card. “Thanks for all the help. I’ll see you tomorrow.” And of course, I smile… again. I look for the stairs and started to climb on it. Although there is an elevator, I don’t want to use it. I’m afraid of narrow spaces such as elevators and I’m afraid of too much dark. I have a claustrophobia. I’ll rather take the stairs than to use elevators alone.
At last I reached the third floor and since I came from the back, the room numbers are also backwards. 415, 414, 413… I’m walking in the hallway, seriously looking through the door numbers. 410, 409, 408… I crash to a man’s chest and we both fell on the ground and he’s in… top of me… gosh, feels like I’m blushing… >___<<br>
SOMEONE’S POINT OF VIEW:
“Okay, I’ll be there wait for me, sorry I forgot.” Kyung Soo call me.
He said he’s done for touring the new student of CPA and our new dorm member. I fix my hair and my top. I’m just wearing a black torso top and jeans. I’ll meet Kyung Soo at the lobby because I forgot to return his master key of the dorm.
I flip the door knob and went out when someone crashed on me. We both fell and I’m on top of her. She’s unfamiliar, I’m staring at her. I don’t know what to do until she move then that’s when I got into myself. I stand up quickly and I help her to stand up. Her cheeks were red. She just bow in front of me and before I was about to talk to her, she run to a door and opened it with a key then hurriedly went inside and close it. As I pass by, I realize that her room is right nwxt to my room. 407, that’s her room. I smile and enter the elevator to meet Kyung Soo at the lobby.
“What took you so long?” Kyung Soo asked me, he looks different today. It’s like his eyes were shining.
“Sorry, a girl accidentally crashed on me when I get out of my room.” I explained.
“Where’s my master key?”
“Here.” I pick up the key inside of my pocket.
“You look different today Kyung Soo. What did you eat?” I asked.
“Nothing new. Still the French sweetened cake.”
“But you look different. Is that because of the new student?” he just stared at me. I didn’t receive any answer from his serious glare.
“What?” I asked as if I said something wrong.”
“Stop that Kai.” He just said.
YUMAE’S POINT OF VIEW:
I’m at the beach, walking, holding hands with a guy then we sat down and watch the wonderful scenery of the sunset.
“London is too far from here. Don’t leave me here. Just take me with you. I can’t wait that long. I don’t know if I can.” I told him. He looked at me straight into my eyes.
“I may be far and we may not see each other every day and may not hold each other’s hands. Distance is just a test of love. After college in London, I’ll go back for you and you should wait for me here my Wendy. Peter Pan will go back for his Wendy okay?” he told me. A tear fall from my eye and he quickly wipe it.
“Peter Pan will go to Neverland for a while but I’m sure Peter Pan will go back for his Wendy okay? Just remember what’s important is that we are not going to forget each other no matter what happen okay?”
“Don’t cry because I’m going to meet you again…”
I wake up. A dream again. And again, I can’t remember the guy’s face. Is he the same man I dream on the plane? Or not?
07:30 am
Oh my gosh! I have class at 8 am! No! I should not be late on the first day of classes!
I went to the bathroom and take a bath, get my uniform then get dressed. I don’t have time for breakfast so I just make an instant coffee and drink it on the way.
I slightly run down through the stairs. I can see few people in the campus. I guess everyone was already in their own classes. My first class is music. I ran towards the building that Kyung Soo told me. Climb at the stairs and looking for room 2A3. Then someone appeared in front of me! I spilled the coffee in his uniform! And of course my uniform is also spilled off. Why are you so clumsy Yumae? The guy is not speaking. Is he mad? It was an accident!
I slowly tilt my head up to see his reaction. He is a tall and a very handsome guy.
Why am I saying this?
“I’m sorry.” I said
“It was an acci—”
“Don’t you know me?” he said.
“Uhh… No. I’m sorry.”
“You enter this school and yet you don’t know me?”
“I’m sorry but I really don’t know you.”
“Look what you’ve done in my uniform. How am I going to enter my class with this uniform?”
“I’m sorry. It was an accident.” I must run right now I’m 2 minutes late for my first class. I run and look for my class.
“Hey! Where do you think you’re going?” shouted the guy at the hallway. “I’m sorry. I have class. I’m really sorry!” I shouted too and continue to run. I saw the room 2A3, I run towards it, I flip the door knob and I pushed it then I stopped. Everyone is looking at me! From the professor up to back seat then someone push me from my back.
“Don’t you dare run away from me!” the guy scolded me. I was half lying on the floor because of the impact when he pushed me. I was about to cry but I should not. It was an accident and I didn’t mean that! This guy should learn a lesson. I stand up and I look at him even though he’s too tall for me.
“YOU!” I said while pointing my index finger on his face. It seems like he was surprise on what I did. “Don’t you understand the word ‘accident’? I told you I didn’t mean that, okay? I’m sorry about your uniform that I spilled off with my coffee but look at my uniform. I am also spilled okay? Were quits.” He didn’t speak a word. He’s just staring at me.
The whole class seems to be looking only to us. I look around. The girls where whispering on each others’ ears and they’re looking at me. The professor seems to look surprised in the scenes that suddenly flash in the middle of the class. I gulp and there I see Kyung Soo at the middle row seat. He looks annoyed while looking at me. What did I do? It was an accident guys!
Tears started to fill up my eyes but I try my best to hold it. I am looking at the tall guy while he’s also staring at me with a dark expression on his face.
“Let’s go Yumae, clean yourself up.” Kyung Soo is behind my back. I see the tall guy smirk.
“ Is she your rebound girl now, Kyung Soo.” The tall guy seems to be teasing him.
“That’s enough. Just learn how to treat a lady Kris Wu.” Kyung Soo answered.
WHAT? Kris Wu? It’s him!

“Who’s Kris Wu?” I asked. I didn’t hear that name yet.
