"Why. Out of all the teachers. She. Should be. Our homeroom?!" Chen deeply sighed.

"What? Mrs. Park is terribly nice!" Minji snapped.

"Yes Minji, 'terribly nice'," He said as he made a quotation mark on air.

"Guys, eat your food," I rolled my eyes.

We were in the cafeteria having our lunch after my 2 period of Chemistry, Minji's 2 period of Literature and Chen's 2 period of Social Studies.
