   Alexandra dropped her bag as she sprawled on her bed tired.."beep beep" her phone rang
   "Hey bestieeeee"! Alex said happily
   "Hey Lexy " Alex could hear her best friend said out loud . Justin has been Alexandra best friend ever since they were in junior high school
  "How is Korea? Do they have cute Oopas (meaning older brother). Oh my God! I wish I could come for college there"
"Justina????? Chill out!! Come on!" Alex rolled her eyes.
   "What? You are lucky! I bet you are already crushing on them" Justin added. Alexandra sighed "It is not as you think,they are just normal people and it is also weird here, you know as a foreigner from different country." Alexandra replied
  "Well I don't care, when I'm done with the make up classes, I'm visiting you there" Justina replied. Alex could tell she was smiling at that moment
"Yeah right, gotta go now..I'm so tired" Alex said. "Okay bye chunny bunny! Bye" Justina replied as she ended the call
"Justina!!!" Alexandra said groaning "If she was here instead of me,she would have run back to the states". Alexandra said as she remember the cute Ho Jun that made her laugh so hard
"It is true, Korean boys are sweet" Alexandra said smiling "time to get some rest now". She added as she closed her eyes.
  "I'M HOMEEE!!!!"
  Alexandra could hear Eun-Kyung coming in.     "Oh Jesus" Alexandra groaned out as she opened her eyes. "Hello! My sweet Alexandra"   Eun-Kyung said pulling off her hoodie
  "Hi! My lousy roommate" Alexandra said in a low grumpy voice.
   "Why are you sleeping??? You didn't hear about the party? The welcome party for all new student" Eun-Kyung said suprisely
    "Yeah maybe, but I'm sleepy right now and the party is by 8pm so bye bye" Alexandra replied closing her eyes. Alex felt the pillow hitting her
   "Get up lazy bone, this is 6pm already, we need to look cute at the party" Eun-Kyung said as she hit Alexandra more and more
   Alexandra groaned out "I hate my life!!!"
   "Come on" Eun-Kyung puller her up as they went out of the room
                          *****

   They got the salon and walked in, they could see a tall good looking Asian guy welcoming them with a big smile "Welcome Eun-Kyung" he said
    Alexandra could see Eun-Kyung picture on the wall as the customer of the year, Alexandra looked at her roommate and giggled
   "And you must be a new student? Beautiful! Beautiful!!! Oh my! Oh my!!" The Asian guy said smiling at Alexandra.
   Alexandra shook his hand as she looked at Eun-Kyung who smiled and looked away
   "Come on, have your seat missy.. I will make sure you look like an..........ermm what's the word". The hairstylist said thinking of what to say
   "An angel?" Eun-Kyung who her hair was being washed by another hair stylist replied
    "Not that! Ermm!" He said scratching his head. "A Goddess?" Alexandra said smiling
   "YES! Brilliant my beautiful?......" he said starring and waiting for Alexandra to reply. "Alex" Alexandra said smiling
   "My beautiful Alexandra... you can call me Oopa Son" he replied as Alexandra smiled to him "Alright Oopa Son" she said
  "Gyeobda (meaning cute)" He said in reply
                            *****

         After few hours
  " I love my hair" Alexandra said as they walked out of the salon. "I know right" Eun-Kyung replied "you hungry? I know a nice restaurant down the street" she added as they walked to the restaurant.
  " I'm so hungry, what do you wanna eat?" Eun-Kyung asked as she dropped her bag, sitting on one of the chairs in the restaurant
   Alexandra checked the menu list "Why is everything so expensive?" Alexandra said sharply. Eun-Kyung laughed out " you prefer the school cafeteria?" She asked
   "YES! It's gonna save money..durgh!!!". Alexandra replied looking straight at Eun-Kyung who rolled her eyes at her
   "Excuse me please!" Eun-Kyung called out for for the waitress who walked up to her immediately "give me chicken noodle soup and a soda then give my friend?........" Eun-Kyung said looking at Alexandra who kept starring at the menu
   "300 won?" Alex said out loud. Eun-Kyung pinched her and smile at the waitress "just give her chicken noodle soup, thank you" Eun-Kyung said as the waitress left for  their order
  "Are you crazy? Where are you gonna see over 800 won for the food? We can easily go eat 50 won meal at the school cafeteria" Alexandra said worried
  "You are so sweet Alex but no" Eun-Kyung said smiling
   After some while their order was brought to them, Alexandra enjoyed her meal and she knows it worth the money.
  As they were going out of the restaurant they met three Asian girls on the way
   "Hello cousin" one of the girls said looking at Eun-Kyung who rolled her eyes. Alexandra looked at her roommate who doesn't look happy.
  "Hi Na Na" Eun-Kyung replied fake smiling at the girl. Nana looked at Alexandra and smiled, Alex could see them walking in the restaurant
  "That was super weird, what was that? Aren't you supposed to be happy to see your cousin?" Alexandra asked as they both walk away.
   Eun-Kyung sighed "forget about her, I don't wanna talk about it, she is not worthy to be called my cousin after all" she replied
   "Come on please! Pleaseeeeeee" Alex said. "Fine Alexandra" Eun-Kyung said as they both sat on a wooden chair near them
   "That Nana girl you saw is fake" Eun-Kyung said sighing "why? She is beautiful and has a perfect body to me" Alex replies
   "Yeah everyone knows that, she has a very nice body but a bad and dirty personality, Nana used to be a very good girl, she used to be my best friend and my best cousin but suddenly things changed as she start growing up" Eun-Kyung said
  "What happened!" Alexandra said eagerly
    "A long time ago myself, Nana and a guy used to be best friends, I mean very very close, we are always there for each other and I remember the guy that is also part of us used to be bullied back in middle school"
   "Nana and I are always there for him...she and the guy were even more closer to each other". Eun-Kyung said as Alexandra listened
   "You see she was so sweet, we were growing up and I had this guy that we loved each other and started dating and everyone know about us" Eun-Kyung sighed sadly
    "If you don't wanna talk about it...it's cool" Alexandra said
    "It's okay....Nana decided to take what was mine and blackmailed me, she saw a private video of me and threatened to post it if I don't leave my boyfriend for her" Eun-Kyung said
    "What??? Who does that?" Alexandra said out not realizing she shouted out, the people passing by looked at them as they walk pass them
    "Well Nana!...I was stubborn at first and decided to let it slide thinking she wouldn't since she is my family.... guess I was wrong, she started telling everyone including our male best friend that she met my boyfriend first and I snatched him away from her, she didn't stop there...she continue threatening me saying she was gonna upload the video online if I don't play along with her lies" Eun-Kyung replied
   "Well" Eun-Kyung sighed again "I did for my reputation and I lied to him that I never loved him and it was Nana that loves him.." Eun-Kyung looked at Alexandra "you see? She isn't as beautiful as you think" she said smiling
    "Wow Eun-Kyung that's so intense and crazy, wow!!! I've never seen anyone do that to their own best friend not just that but FAMILY?" Alexandra replied
   "It was not only me she showed her evil self to, she also made our male friend sad" Eun-Kyung said
   "How is that?" Alexandra asked
    "He fell in love with Nana a long time ago"
     "You mean your friend that was bullied fell in love with Nana?" Alexandra asked surprised
   "Yes, I don't blame him to be honest, Nana was always there and she was so sweet then...well till now he doesn't know Nana blackmailed me, he won't be happy at her if he knows and I'm not a bad person so I'm not gonna tell" Eun-Kyung added.
  "You're saying he still love her till now?
