December 2020. The world was in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. We follow UAL final year student Kim Hajoon as he traveled back to London to finish his bachelor degree. A mandatory 10-days quarantine was required for all international travel in...
KIM HAJOON'S JOURNAL ENTRY SUN, DEC 26TH, 2020. 02.05 GMT Apartment, West End. Kitchen
Alright... How do I begin...
It's...
Yeah. I'm writing this at 2 am. I'm sitting in Minjeong's airbnb (is it an airbnb? I think it is) kitchen.
She's asleep.
And...
And I can't sleep.
Because...
Shit...
Yeah I...
I had sex with her.
OKAY.
Shit I'm trembling.
Okay hang on. Hang on!
I'll start by recounting the day. The entire day. Yeah. That'll calm me down.
I woke up today, well... Minjeong woke me up. She...
She kissed me softly to wake me up. As my eyes flickered, the first thing I saw was her beautiful face. She was smiling, she was smiling so wide.
"Good morning, my Sunshine... Merry Christmas," that's what she said. (Yes, Journal-nim, my heart bursted out in an instant). "M–Morning, Minjeong... M–Merry Christmas!" was all I could stutter.
She giggled and walked to the kitchen. I noticed that she had prepared breakfast for us. I chuckled as I stood from the sofa and walked to join her.
"Hajoon-hyung, bab meogja!"
She said it again while giggling cutely. I guess it's our official catchphrase now. I smiled and instinctively hugged my new (read: first) girlfriend from behind. (Is she my girlfriend?)
That's when she gasped and jolted.
And that's when I realized.
Shit. My morning wood.
I released her immediately, panickedly. She turned and bit her lips, her face was full red, as was mine. Okay... Awkward!
"C–Come, l–let's eat!" I stammered loudly.
Thankfully, she giggled and nodded, sitting across the table. She prepared a simple sunny side up egg and some sausages, and we ate happily (I tried to ignore the fact that I had a raging boner hiding under the table).
"Where are you bringing me today, Oppa?" she asked me. "Well, it's Christmas, so I think we should check out the old City of London. Are you familiar with Leadenhall Market?" I asked her. She shook her head (as expected). "No. What is it? Some sort of market?" she asked.
I smiled.
"Kind of. Part of the Diagon Alley scene from the first Harry Potter movie was shot there!" I said, and her eyes widened in surprise. "Really?? We should totally go there!" she exclaimed, making me laugh. "Alright! We'll go there, and... To the surrounding areas, I guess..."
