"Jeonghan, who are you?" She asked.
"I'm sorry Ha Eun, I can't say right now." He replied.
Who or what, is he?
Is the question that haunts her mind, and fills her thoughts.
"Are- Are you sure you got the right Lee Young Hee?" She stammered.
"Yes I'm sure." The lady with the soothing voice replied.
Ugh her voice was so soothing it was annoying!
Ha Eun hated her. She had never met this person, and she hated her with her entire body.
Slowly she sank to her knees on the hard concrete floor.
She curled up into a ball and screamed.
She screamed and screamed not even aware of the people in the room.
She slowly passed out.
Ha Eun woke up in a hospital room.
She was covered in sweat and had a cool washcloth on her forehead.
She had a fever. She knew she did. Yet she stood up suddenly remembering what had happened, and walked out of the room and towards the front desk.
"How may I help you?" The lady at the front desk asked.
Ha Eun realized that the receptionist didn't realize that she was a "patient" there.
"Oh I don't need help with anything, I was just passing by and thought I should wish you a good day." She smiled.
The lady smiled back. "Why thank you! I hope you have a wonderful day as well!"
Ha Eun smiled and walked out of the hospital as fast as she could, ignoring the pounding headache she had.
Right then and there, she decided that she would never go back home. She headed straight to her friend Mike's house.
Knocking on the front door, she waited impatiently till he opened it.
"Mike, I need your help." She said. "My mom just passed away and I can't go back home."
Mike looked at her confused. Slowly it started to sink in what she was saying.
"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry Sarai!" He exclaimed. "I'd do anything to help out, what is it that you need?"
"I need money."
"Ok, how much?" He asked.
"That's the thing, I don't know." She said. "It has to be enough to buy a ticket to Korea."
He just looked at her in astonishment.
"You need money to go to Korea?" He asked. "Why Korea?"
"Its hard to explain Mike, I just need the money."
"Ok ok, you can have the money" he replied.
"Oh my gosh I love you Mike!" She exclaimed. "I promise I'll pay you back every cent!" She said through her tears.
"Come in." He offered. You take a shower while I buy the ticket and then I'll take you to the airport."
"I'll make sure to get a ticket for today."
"Thank you so much Mike." She cried. "I don't know how I'll ever repay you."
"Its no problem." He smiled. He knew she was having a hard time not to break down right then and there.
"Just go take you shower." He said, sympathetically.
She gave him a faint smile and headed for the bathroom.
********
A few hours later, Ha Eun was freshly showered and on an airplane headed towards Korea. She had nothing more than her phone, and a clean set of clothes that Mike had given her.
She was going to Korea.
