Ring Ring 5.50 am

"Please not. Just let me sleep one minute more." I say to myself.

I turn my alarm clock off and get back to sleep.

Ring Ring 6.05 am

"Ah pleeease I'm begging stop this shit." I groan loud.

I turn it off again placing the blanket above my face.

Ring Ring 6.10 am

"Aaah really?!" I shout turning it off and letting my phone fall from my bedside table. I quickly open my eyes and sit up "Oh no that was my phone" I say picking it up and looking at the screen. I smile being happy about it because there is not a new scratch.

Lying down again I make myself comfortable in my bed. Stretching my arms and legs and sleeping again.

My ringtone gets me back to reality. I open my eyes letting out a loud sigh. Picking up my phone without looking at the caller Id.
-Well that was a mistake Yoo Rae.

"Hello?" I say annoyed, eyes closed.

"Choi Yoo Rae?"

"I don't want to buy your vacuum cleaner. Just let me."

"Vacuum?" the woman on the phone asks me.

"Yeah vacuum. Your calling me since yesterday non stop. Its annoying. I already have a vacuum."

"Miss Choi Yoorae I'm the secretary of Ahn Joon Sik"

"What??" I say quickly opening my eyes sitting straight on my bed.

"You missed the job interview. But my boss was so nice that he wanted to meet you although you missed it. So how about 10.30 am?"

"When?" I ask nibbling on my lower lip.

"Today of course"

"And what time is it now?" I ask the female, yet scared about her answer.

"Its 7.50 am"

"Whaaat?! How am I supposed to be there at 10.30 am. I'm from Daegu" I sigh out loud.

"Why are you even applying on a job in Seoul and not in Daegu? Just try to hurry up."

"Ahh really!?" I say whining at the phone. She hangs up and I hide my face with my hands.

How should I get ready in 10 minutes?

I quickly get up going to the bathroom. Looking in the mirror. I look like a mess! My hair looks like a bird's nest. I look like a scruff. Oh no. Is that a fucking pimple on my face. Why today?

I have to fix my ugly face in the train. Nobody's got time for that now.

I clips my short hairs in the front back with a black barret. I wash my face, brush my teeth and storm in my bedroom again. I put on my black skirt and my white blouse. Without giving the mirror a look I rush through my apartment door heading to the station.

So now its 8.15 am the big clock at the station says.

Fucccckkkk!

The train departs at 8.20 am. Please god I'm begging. I need this job!

I start to rush with my high heels. Why did I decide to wear this crap shit shoes. I can't even walk with them. I look like a running rattlesnake.

Without looking on the ground I run.
-Well that was a mistake too.

My heel gets stuck in a little hole. A little black hole! Literally my life.

Not thinking twice I try to pull my shoe out of the hole. Pulling again. "Aahhh whats with this shoe!!" I say annoyed having the looks from some people at the station on me. "What are you looking at? Never seen a shoe which is stuck in a hole?" I yell at them.
