Another rainy Saturday. We couldn't go outside because it rained badly, but it was cozy at home so it was fine.
Minho seemed comfortable when he played with his kitties.
Someone called me. It was eomma. Mother??
I starred at the caller ID.
"Who is it?" Minho asked "Answer it."
I answered the call:
"Yurimahh, we haven't heard from you since a long time now. What about we'll come over to your apartment today?" mom asked right away.
Just like that?
"Eomma, you didn't-" I rethought what I was gonna say and continued in English "Mom, why did you never call me?"
"I had a lot to do, Grace, but Areum and I would love to spend some time with you again. He misses you really much. We could ask Taeyun as well!"
she said.
"You mean at my apartment? I have a roommate so I don't know so right, mom..."
"That's not a big problem, hm? She can eat with us" she didn't seem to care.
"My roommate is a guy, mom-"
"A guy?? Male? Is he handsome??"
"Mom, he's in my class so not your age. Oh my god-"
"What? Not for me, dummy. For you! Tell me, is he a gentleman? Can he speak English?" she kept asking.
"He's nice I guess. And no, he can't speak English. But I have two other friends who are Australian!"
"Really? What are their names?"
"Christopher and Felix."
"Men? Why only men? Are you only friends with men?" she complained.
"No, of course not ... Well, I have one girl best friend, Mina."
"At least" she sighed "Grace, my dear, would you maybe think about dinner with us? We would visit you today. Ask your roommate. We'll order something."
"Let me ask him" I turned to Minho again.
"Is it fine if we'll eat dinner with my eomma and my younger brother?" I asked Minho.
"Huh?" he realized and smiled "Yes, sure."
"Okay then" I returned "He said it's okay."
"Great! We'll see you, Grace" eomma said goodbye.
"See you, eomma."
She hung up. Relieved.
I threw myself back on the couch "Sorry."
"Sorry? I'd like to meet your eomma" Minho said.
"She'll say weird things or treat you like my boyfriend. That'll be totally embarrassing."
"Ya, don't worry. I didn't understand a single shit what you talked about because it was English, but you seemed surprised."
"Uh, yes?? I've already been here so long and she calls me so late? She said she misses me when I left. How dramatic" I scoffed.
He patted my shoulder "... Since when do you talk about your emotions with me?" with a small smile on his face.
Then I realized, pinched my head "Right. I didn't say anything" stood up to walk away, but remembered "What would you like to eat? Eomma will order something since our kitchen isn't the best."
