CHAPTER 3: Talk Talk

With the twinkling of an eye, each one of my colleagues goes to his/her duties; those who got class go their ways to attend to the students. 

From my corner all my gazed were on the angelic being, my eyes scanning through his sitting position, from the way he moves his body mere looking at him, one will state that he is listening to a song due to his body language, his finger was tapping lightly on his table as he nods his ears; whatever he is listening to must be a banger, judging from the way he is vibing to it; he must be good at what he does

"A penny for your thought… I jacked back to myself and he smiled.

"Do you want to listen? He asked as he approached me again.

"No, I said as fast as I could… I got class in the next thirty minutes; so I need to gather my stuff"… I replied as I quickly rise to gather my teaching materials.

"Okay, see you after class ", he said as he put back his head pod; returning to his seat he brought out a picture, he smiled as he tilted his head to one side, staring at the picture.

From my angle, I can say that, looks like a group picture;… "Wait!! Are those his brothers? Is he from a polygamous or extended family? Hmm… What will I say since I barely know him, I feel light-headed as I pack my stuff to attend to my students?

**********************

The class went smooth as I took my time to explain to my students" The Basic of English" explaining and exploring all the Tenses and uses of it to their understanding.

They all pay attention, ever since I got my teaching job, my students are the very best; even though I found it a bit difficult to communicate with each one of them due to the language barrier, but that doesn't stop the teacher-students relationship.

Being an English/Literature Teacher has been my dream as a child; now I got the Dreams and in my dream Country, I want to give my best to them; having them as my students are the very best, even though the stubborn ones display their stubbornness neither of these makes me hate or distance myself from them, I know and understand very well they are in their adolescent stages, so change is constant, in due time, they will come around.

When the lesson ended, I decided to check out something at the Library. Something, I mean a book I needed for my next lesson; I hurried straight to the Library, with my Hope high definitely I will find the exact book I'm looking for, I thought within me as I moved to the shelves of books pile up, my heart skips a bit, will I be able to find what I'm looking for here… I mumbled as I moved to one of the shelves, skimming every book I lay my hands on.

As I buried myself in my search, I felt a shadow around me; 'this scent is familiar' I thought as I straighten up my face to see who the stalker was.

"Hi… What are you looking for, I might help you find it. The voice said.

"Jimin what are you doing here, didn't you have class" I asked almost confuse as I returned to search for the book I'm looking for. The hell is he doing here." I muttered.

"So if I have class, shouldn't I be there, he said as he moved closer to me…  Leaning his back on one of the shelves," what are you looking for" he asked again.

"Found it… I said as I held out the book for him to see.

"Woah… what's this, he asked as he scanned the Book. Hitting it lightly on his hand; are you a kind of Albert Einstein… He said as he skimmed through the book."

"Albert what ?? No, No, stop teasing me please"… I beamed a response to his statement… This is an English textbook old Edition" I said as I took the book from him.

Handing the book to me, I heard him say "oh you are an English teacher.

"Partially English teacher"..I butt in as fast as possible.

"Why partially."he asked, raising his eyebrows.

"Well I major in Literature but when I relocate to South Korea, the only available work for me is English, I don't want to be idle' sitting around the house all day…No! Not in my dictionary." I said as the two of us walked out of the Library back to our Office.

Jimin looked at his watch and give out a smirk…" Time for lunch" he said as he lifted his hand and ran it backward through his head.
