MEMOIRS

CHAPTER - 6 : LONG DAY

A notification popped up. The person saw the message and uttered, "Im already here." The person who told that was the 'sunbae'. Yeon Joon asked, "Sunbae, did you tell something now?" The sunbae replied, "Oh, nothing. What are you guys doing here??" Ha Sang told, "We came here to get something. Same question goes to you. Why are you here?" The sunbae told, "I came here to work." Yeon Joon told, "Are you working part-time here?" The sunbae told, "Yeah." Ha Sang told, "Sunbae, are you a robot? You just tell one line or word and don't talk anything else. With your cold face it's even more scarier. Smile at times, it will make you look good even more. Yeon Joon, let's go." Yeon Joon told, "See you later sunbae!" while patting his shoulder and went.

Bo Young reached her home. The house owner was still there looking at her phone. She was young. Bo Young told, "Hello?" The house owner turned and told, "Oh, Nam Bo Young?" Bo Young nodded and opened the door. They both entered the house. Bo Young smiled and told, "Welcome, please take a seat." The house owner told, "Ooh, you are maintaining your place beautifully. By the way, I'm Park Eun Mi. I and Seul Hee are really close friends. She has talked a lot about you. Like really a lot." Bo Young asked, "Oh really?" Eun Mi told, "Yeah, she keeps talking about you and blah blah...." Eun Mi just kept on talking. She sounded to be a really outgoing and cheerful person. She talked everything about her and didn't let Bo Young speak anything. Bo Young was only giving reactions, which was awkward too. Finally Eun Mi told, "Bo Young, why aren't you speaking anything? By the way you are really pretty. It is making me to keep starting at you." Bo Young told, "Thank you." And then thought: "Woah she is really talkative. Even Hee unnie doesn't talk like this. I don't know how they both became friends in the first place. She is weird too. 'Making me want to keep staring at you' is she in a normal condition?"

She zoned out again. Eun Mi woke her, "Bo Young, are you okay?" Bo Young told, "Oh, yes." Eun Mi's phone rang. She attended the call, "Yeah, why?" the person in the phone told, "Father told we had a family dinner by 6 right. Now it's 5.45. We don't have time. I asked the maid where you were and I came all the way here. Hurry up!" Eun Mi replied, "Okay, okay stop shouting, did you forget that I'm older than you. I'm leaving, wait for a while." Eun Mi hung up the call and told, "Im sorry, but I have somewhere to be, even I forgot. Time flew talking to you. Nice meeting you. Bye!!" she rushed. Bo Young also stood up in a hurry and told, "Ye, yeah. Shall I see you leave??" Eun Mi told, "No no it's okay. Bye." Bo Young told, "Bye, be careful on you way!!"

Bo Young sighed. She was thinking: "OMG. It was so tiring today. Why did today have to go so slowly. Like really slow. I want to sleep. I hope tomorrow doesn't go the same as today. First of all, why did I have to run into those fellows? I don't want to get to know them too." Her notification popped. She looked at it. It was from Seul Hee. The message read; "I heard Eun Mi came to check out."  Bo Young replied to the text; "Yeah, you never told me you and the house owner were friends." Seul Hee replied; "Oh, Yeah we are close friends. She is from a big family. She was so genuine to provide such a nice flat for a lesser price." Bo Young replied; "Oh, Really? that's nice." Seul Hee replied; "Yeah I know right. Ok, so how was your first day of your new school?" Bo Young sent a tired emoji and replied; "Omg, don't start that topic again Hee unnie." Seul Hee replied; "Why? Was it bad?" Bo Young replied; "More than the word bad, I would use tiresome and pointless. Shall I tell you everything?" Seul Hee replied, "Woah, you must have had a really long day huh? I'm ready to hear it. Wait, I will call you." Just after she sent the text she called her.

The both talked endlessly. After getting it all off her chest, Seul Hee told, "Oh, my , God. Just hearing this made me tired. I wonder how tired you must." Bo Young told, "I know right. Oh, I talked with someone today." Seul Hee asked, "Who? Someone in school? Is it a boy or a girl?" Bo Young told, "Unnie, take it slow. It's someone I met in the part time job. It's a girl, so don't get your hopes up high." Seul Hee told, "Oh, it's a girl? I'm not interested then. Were you at least attracted to some of the guys you bumped into?" Bo Young thought for a while: "Attracted? Everybody was handsome but no-" Seul Hee exclaimed in the phone, "Oh, it's already 9. We will talk later. You have school tomorrow. Good night." Bo Young told, "Oh, okay. Good night Hee unnie." They hung up the call. Bo Young thought: "Thank God I escaped. Before realising anything I would have told her that there was somebody. They called him sunbae though. Let's not imagine something and make myself be in a situation I don't want." She went to sleep, hoping tomorrow won't be the same like today.
