Chapter 3- A Beautiful Thing
Jade and Amanda started gossiping until Jade heard a ring upon her cell phone. Jade raised her eyebrows and quickly grabbed the phone. She flipped the cover and answered “Hello?”. “Jade, it’s me Chris.” She heard over the phone. “Oh my God! Chris! How did Du get my number?” Jade asked with excitement and a sparkle in her eyes. “Aw!” Amanda sagte with a smile. “Small town, small phonebook.” Chris answered. Jade laughed in return. “So Du actually searched for my number?” Jade asked with amazement. “Well, I had to find my princess again.” He replied with such sweetness. Jade felt like she was going to faint as she smiled ever so brightly. “So where do Du live? I want to visit you.” Chris asked. “Oh I live on West Oak street. I’m the two story brick house in the middle. Well the third house.” Jade replied. “Oh I know where you’re talking about. I’ll come over tonight.” Chris replied. “Okay.” Jade also responded. “Okay, well, I’m coming over now so be ready to see me.” Chris said. “As ready as I’ll ever be.” Jade added with a smile. Chris hung up and Jade jumped up and down on her bett in excitement. “Amanda, I think I’m in love.“ Jade sagte with a soft tone. Amanda smiled and nodded.
Amanda shortly left as she passed Chris Von the doorway. Amanda smiled at the boy and kept walking. Chris looked back at Amanda and rubbed his hands together to keep them warm from the cold. He knocked on the door and Jade’s mother answered. “Is Jade home?” The boy asked. Her mother nodded and escorted Chris into the house. “She’s up in her room. Upstairs, the last room to the left.” Her mother announced. “Komapsuemnida.” Chris sagte as he proceeded toward the stairs. “What does that mean?” Jade’s mother asked, stopping him in his tracks. “It means thank Du in my language.” Chris responded with a smile. Jade’s mom smiled. “It’s Korean.” Chris added as he walked up the flight of stairs. He knocked on Jade’s door as he tried to see through the cracks. Jade opened the door and smiled at Chris. “Oh, hey.” Jade sagte with a smile. “Hey.” Chris responded. Jade sat down on her bett as Chris did the same. He stared and studied the girl for awhile while she did the same. “May I KISS you?” Chris asked. “Yes.” Jade replied. Chris leaned in close and wrapped his arms around the girl. He pressed his cold lips against her warm lips. Jade blushed instantly. This had been her first kiss. She put her hand on her stomach as the KISS lasted. For it gave her Schmetterlinge and made her see fireworks. When Chris let go and saw Jade’s red face, he laughed. Then Jade got a grip on reality and figured something. “Why are Du doing this? Du barely even know me. We just met this morning. That’s it. What’s this between us?” Jade sagte all curious and misunderstood. “Well, when I first laid eyes on Du my herz wouldn’t stop beating and I felt like I was on oben, nach oben of the world. I thought to myself that I finally found the one my herz would belong to.” Chris responded. Jade understood this and had to tell him her side too. “I felt that way too, Chris. But I never thought Du would like me like this.” Jade said. “Like what?” Chris said, urging Jade to say it. “Like a boyfriend treats his girlfriend.” Jade responded to the boy’s question. “Well, after I left the store, I was thinking about that. I know we only met today, but maybe we can be boyfriend and girlfriend. We both like each other very much.” Chris stated. Jade smiled and nodded. “After how crazy this is, I would Liebe to be your girlfriend, Ki- Suh Park.” Jade responded happily. Chris smiled brightly and hugged his new soul mate.
Jade and Chris went downstairs, hand-in-hand, to tell Jade’s mother the news. Jade found her mother on the couch, watching an episode of her Favorit Soap Opera, “The Young and The Restless”. Jade and Chris stood in front of her mother. Still hand-in-hand. “Mom, me and Chris have to speak to Du about something.” Jade announced. “Yes, dear?” Jade’s mother responded. “I met Chris today at Carter’s. When I went to get your grits. He found me and told me that he really does feel a connection between us and I do too. We have decided that we are going to be boyfriend and girlfriend. We just need your consent.” Jade stated. Jades mother nodded in approval. “I will let Du be with this boy if this is what Du really want.” Jade’s mother responded to the statement. Jade nodded and smiled. “May I ask Du some Fragen first?” Jade’s mother asked the Liebe struck boy. Chris nodded and sat down Weiter to Jade’s mother. As comfortable as can be. “Yes, Mrs. Neal?” He asked with much politeness. “Oh honey, call me Miss. Marla.” Marla sagte with a smile. Chris smiled and nodded. “How old are you?” Marla asked. “I am 15. Born September, 15th, 1995.” He stated proudly. “Okay. Where were Du born?” Marla asked with even Mehr curiosity. “Seoul, South Korea.” He responded. “Are Du legal?” She asked. “We had some trouble with the paperwork when I came here, but my mother and father sorted things out for me.” Chris responded. “When did Du come to America?” She asked. “When I Was 14. Last Jahr in February.” He responded with much honesty. “Then how do Du know English so well?” She asked. “My mother and father made me study the English and Japanese language while I was living in my Home country. I found English very easy to catch on to.” He responded with pride that he knew three important languages. Marla nodded in approval. “Impressive. Not many boys around here have the charm, politeness and brains that Du do.” Marla told the young boy. “Well thank you, but of course, I’m not from around here.” Chris responded while laughing.
Marla laughed and let the couple go off on their own adventure. oder just across the straße to Amanda’s house. “There’s someone else I want Du to meet.” Jade told her lover. Chris nodded as Jade knocked on the somewhat soft mahogany wood door. Amanda quickly answered with a huge smile and asked them to come inside. She gestured them to her room where they could have privacy from her cruel mother. Who happened to be sleeping at the time. “Chris, this my best friend Amanda. Amanda, this is my boyfriend Chris.” Jade stated proudly. Chris and Amanda shook hands with friendliness and a smile. Jade liked this. For she knew that they would get along well. Not like her and Damien got along. There was some odd reason she disliked Damien. She always stated that she just gets bad vibes from him, oder the way he acts is weird to her. She oder Amanda was never sure. For the rest of the night Amanda, Jade and Chris conversed about weird, funny things, until they could do no more. Chris escorted Jade home. Then he went Home himself. It had been a beautiful day, for a beautiful thing.

I'm Trying to be me
Why can't I be?
I'm trying to Zeigen
why can't this feeling go?
Ohh... can't Du see?
I'm trying to be me
No matter If you're short oder tall
No matter If Du have this all
Just have your life with whom Du want
No matter what people has to say
and just Bewegen on, on your way
Everybody has something to share
and everybody has someone to care... about
people could be real with you
and mostly they could courtesy you
Just forget about them
No matter if you're punk oder rock
No matter if Du have a bad look
Just have your life with whom Du want
No matter what people has to say
and just Bewegen on, on your way
Just forget...just forget... Just forget
what people has to say
and just Bewegen on, on your way!

hold fast to dreams,
for if dreams die,
life is a broken winged bird,
that can not fly.
the night is a big black cat,
the moon is her topaz eye,
the stars are the mice she hunts at night,
in the field of the sultry sky.
the mirror is the magic of man,
for his quest throughout time,
has been to see himself,
to know himself as others do,
and the mirror is his tool,
however, he must remember,
that the mirror shows everything,
exactly in reverse.
Du are drowning yourself in sorrow,
holding close your memories of regret,
Du hope then tomorrow,
the memories Du shall forget,
but they never really leave you,
no, they are always here,
but in time someone will change them,
to memories that are so dear.
