ash was in the middle of shooting seventeen when she got a phone call from an unknown number. she finished shooting the rookie idol's comeback live video first before waiting for the caller again. the unknown number called again while she was having her break so she had the chance to answer it.
( it's a call but in text form )
ash: yeoboseyo?
caller: hello? ash ikaw ba yan?
trans: hello? ash, is that you?
ash: uh who is this?
caller: tita sheila ineng
trans: it's aunt sheila, darling!
ash: ay tita! ang tagal na po tayong di nakapag usap! pano po kayo nakapagtawag? kamusta ka na po?
trans: oh... aunt! it's been so long since we talked! how can you call? how are you?
caller: nag international call ako. ineng hindi ko kayang magkamustahan ngayon, pero may kailangan akong sabihin sa iyo.
trans: i used international call. darling, i can't talk chitchat right now, but i do have something important to tell you.
ash: ay ganon po ba? ano po kailangan nyo sabihin?
trans: oh really? what do you need to say to me aunt?
caller: pupunta kami jan sa korea...
trans: we're going to korea...
ash: ay talaga po?!
trans: really?!
caller: pero wag ka masyado magsaya, may sasabihin lang kami sayo bago...
trans: don't celebrate just yet, we just have something important to tell you before...
ash: bago po ano?
trans: before what?
caller: bago ka umuwi dito sa pinas
trans: before you go back to the philippines
ash: ha?! ano po?!
trans: what?! what did you say?!
caller: dito ka na titira...
trans: you are going to live here...
ash: gano ka tagal po ako jan?
trans: how long will i stay there?
caller: yun ang hindi pa namin alam, baka kalahati o isang taon.
trans: that's what we don't know, maybe half a year or a year
ash: pero tita, may trabaho na po ako dito! may buhay po ako dito sa korea, hindi ko kayang iwan yon!
trans: but aunt, i have a job! i have a life here in korea, i can't just leave it!
caller: patawarin mo ako ineng pero wala ka ng magagawa. pinauuwi ka na ng lolo at lola mo.
trans: forgive me my dear but we can't do anything about it anymore. your grandparents want you to come home.
ash: hindi po ba pwede dito nalang sa call sabihin? kailangan nyo pa talagang pumunta dito at iuwi nyo ako jan?
trans: can't they just call here and tell me? do you really have to go here and bring me back there?
caller: hindi ineng, sobrang importante nito.
trans: no dear, it's really important.
ash: *sighs* kailan po ang flight ko?
trans: *sighs* when is my flight?
caller: nasa amin na ticket mo, april 12 dating namin pero april 15 ang alis natin. ineng kailangan ko nang umalis. usap nalang tayo ulit.
trans: we already have your airplane ticket, we'll be arriving there at april 12 but aprl 15 is the date of our flight back. let's just talk again when we come there
ash: sige po, bye po.
trans: oh okay, bye.
caller: bye ineng.
trans: bye darling.
ash sighs and she leans her head back to the wall. yuri came out of nowhere surprising ash.
" who were you talking to? the language you were speaking didn't sound like korean... " yuri said as she sucked the lollipop
" i was talking to my aunt, she's filipino so i spoke tagalog, she doesn't understand korean so... " ash sighs
" woah, you look so stressed. what ever she said, it sure did get to your nerves " yuri said before disappearing on ash's sight. ash looked at her phone calendar to look on how many day she got left and it said: March 24,2016
fuck i only have five days
——
a/n; – conversation above will be in tagalog (filipino language) but will be translated so don't worry. the reason for her leaving will be revealed soon. as you all know, ash lived in the philippines before she came to korea so she knows tagalog.
