27- Desperation

Weeks have passed after we visited Naeun, and now it was nearing July.

Things have changed between Jin's older brother and I, and we put the past in the past and have moved on. We were on a level of friends now, which Jin was happy about.

I was laying my head on my mom's lap, listening to Star King that was on the T.V while she was brushing though my long hair, cracking up occasionally as she watched the show.

"Omma, when is dad coming home tonight?" I asked her.

"Around eight o'clock tonight. He told me he'll be coming home early," She says and sighed.

"I still can't believe dad got a job offer at Samsung," I say, and smiled.

"I can't believe it either, and at his age too," My mother said with a scoff.

"Dad is a strong man, and is very good looking still, so his age doesn't matter."

I argued, and she broke out in laughter.

"He needs to hear you say that to him. You can be his little motivation so he could get you bungeoppangs." She says with a sigh.

"Talking about bungeoppangs... I haven't had those in a while." I say, and started to crave those fish shaped ice cream sandwiches with vanilla and red bean paste in the inside.

"If he get's a promotion soon, then you'll have them everyday if you want too," My mother says. "But mostly he needs to find the money to pay for your eye surgery soon."

"Omma... even he doesn't... it's alright. Fortune doesn't always come, and I've already accepted that." I say, but my mother disagreed.

"I wish we would be living in the U.S where we would make more money than we do here," She said with a scoff, and I became quiet. 

After a quiet moment between us, my stomach began to grumble.

"Omma... I'm hungry." I say, and she sighed.

"Let's get something to eat then,"

She says, and I began to sit up, and followed her towards the kitchen.

While I sat at the kitchen table, waiting for the food my mom began to spark up conversation with me.

"So... how are things going on with Jin?" She asked curiously.

"He's fine. He told me the other day that he has to go help his dad with his work or something, so he hasn't been home that often."

"Ah... his father. I heard he was a very strict and careful man," My mom says and sighed.

"Jin never spoke with me much about his dad before," I say, leaning my head on my hand.

"It's because their relationship hasn't been good." She says.

"How'd you know?" I asked her.

"His mother told me all about it," She says, and I smiled.

"So are you guys best of friends now?" I asked her, and she laughed.

"Yah... are you really happy? I know what you're thinking," She says, and I giggled.

The thought of my mother and his mother being best friends made me really happy, and I started to imagine about what the future might be, if Jin and I married.
