"Bench no.3, Han River." Mrs Park told me the address to where I needed to deliver the jajjangmyeon (black bean noodles).
"Neh!neh! (Yes!yes!)" I said and exited the shop.
I hopped on the scooty and made my way to River Han.
I've been working part time at Mrs Park's Jajjangmyeon outlet for a year now. I also work part time at our neighborhood's convenience store.
I finally reached River Han and started searching for the person who had ordered it.
"Bench no.3! Bench no.3! Which ones no.3?!"
Tap ~ tap~
Somebody tapped my shoulder. I turned around and to my surprise it was Kim Mingyu!

"Yaah! Seoyeon -ah! You're late ya know. I'm so hungry right now. I nearly died because I had to wait so long for you to deliver this." He said
"Hey but aren't you supposed to be having your swimming practise right now?"
"Yeah,well it got over early today " he said
I passed him the jajjangmyeon and the bill.
"Now you'll have to wait till I finish eating this or you'll not get paid." He smugly stated.
"Yaah! Kim Mingyu! " I yelled
"Well it's your fault for coming so late, you disappointed the customer and for that you get no tips." he stated playfully.
"Well it's your fault for ordering at such an odd location to begin with and bench no.3? there is so such bench!! The benches here at Han River are not numbered for god's sake Mingyu!" I semi-yelled
He just gave a damn to me and started eating the jjangmyeon so I had no choice but to sit down and wait till he was done.
"You better hurry up or it'll cost me my job" I said
"Mmmhhh" he said and nodded since he was busy gobbling up the jajjangmyeon.
Mingyu, well he was my first friend here in Seoul. Its been three years since I moved to Seoul from Busan. I first got to Seoul back in 2013 and since then I've been staying at Mrs Kim's rent (Mingyus Mom).
"Seoyeon-ah! I've got good news for us." He said
"And what's that?" I asked
"Well SeHo ahjusshi will not be bothering us anymore " he said
SeHo Ahjusshi is another tenant at Mingyu's place, he lives in the flat opposite mine.He's extremely funny but sometimes he can annoy the living hell out of you.

"HUH!.wae? (Why?)"
"Well do you remember the huge mansion that's there in our neighbourhood?"
FLASHBACK 2013
"Cant believe we made it in.Waaah! the pool is huge!" I said
"Told you it would be worth it." Mingyy said
The people in our neighborhood were always talking about how big the mansion's swimming pool was. Since we (Mingyu & I ) too were curious we decided to see and confirm it for ourselves.......today.We had heard that nobody lives in the mansion as the family had settled down somewhere abroad.
"Yeah yeah." I said .
We had to literally climb over the wall just so we could see the pool, but I gotta say it was so worth it.
Just when I was about to dip in my legs in the pool I heard someone shout.
"YAAAH!WHO'S THAT?"
"Hurry up Seoyeon-ah, put your shoes on fast or else we'll get caught" Mingyu said
That day thanks to me we got caught by mansion's security guard and had to do sit ups as a punishment.
BACK TO THE PRESENT:
"yeah.....and what about it?" I asked
"Well it looks like somebody will be staying in the mansion from now on and since SeHo Ahjusshi is the care taker of the mansion he's going to be 24/7 busy."
