Alley's POV

"Hey YeYe. What's up?" I said opening the video chat. "Nothing..." YeYe said with a mischievous face. "Somethings up!" Danielle said sitting down the the swivel chair beside Alley with a bowl of rice. "Maybe..." YeYe said with the cutest smirk on her face. "Tell!" I yelled through the computer. Dani stuck her eyeball up to the camera acting like she was trying to see into YeYe's soul. "HAHA, what are you doing Dani?" YeYe asked laughing at Dani. "Tell us plz!!!" Dani said eating more rice. "OK, so you know how I moved into this apartment once I graduated?" YeYe asked. Dani and I nodded wanting to know more. "Well, you also know how we all have been wanting to meet each other in person and we have been saving up money?" YeYe asked. "Yes we have five-hundred-forty dollars saved up." I replied. "Awesome!! I cant wait for you two to get over here!" YeYe replied. "Wait, so you are ready for us to come over there?" I replied astonished. She nodded smiling from ear to ear. I heard Dani squeak and she almost lost her rice.

"OMG!! I cant wait!! When should we book our flights?" I asked. "The soonest flight to Seoul is tomorrow, but I figured that was too soon." YeYe replied. "There is one October twelfth" Dani replied looking through her phone still shoving rice into her mouth. I reached for a pencil and paper and started writing down the date and times of the flights. "How about the 11:00 pm one? For the October twelfth one? That will give us all day to make sure everything we need is packed and say bye to our family." Dani replied. "Oh, and I have already talked to your parents, Dani, about coming and they said you could as long as you continue your school work, practice dance and acting and take pictures for them." YeYe said smiling even wider as she continued. "Alley, I talked to your dad because I think you said you live with him now. He said you could as long as you do your school work. He said he would keep a close eye on you." Dani and I were so excited we could not speak. Dani almost choked on her rice and I just keep thinking about what we could do in Korea.

"Oh, and you would also have to get jobs and since you can't speak a lot of Korean, I was thinking maids, cooks, or something like that." YeYe said picking up a notebook. "OK, but what place would hire us?" I asked fixing my hair. "We will talk about that when you get over here. Until then. Try and learn as much Korean customs and words as possible." YeYe replied. "Well, Dani and I have some homework to do and then we gotta do chores. We will do that as much as we can." I replied. "Okay, well I will let you two get to that. See you two in a week." YeYe said waving and the video chat ended. "We gotta hurry!" Dani said washing her bowl out. "You scarfed that down." I replied standing up and grabbing my laptop and I headed to the back porch. "I can't wait for this to happen! We have been wanting to go to Korea for so long." Dani replied. "Well, we have to get the tickets first." I said. "I got them. I pre-ordered them. All I have to do when we get to the airport is ask for my friend Matthew and he has the tickets waiting for us. Riding first class baby!" Dani said plopping down beside me on the back porch with her lime green laptop. "You know too many people." I said rolling my eyes logging onto my online course. "Hey, sometimes it helps to know people." Dani replied and we both starting laughing.

October Twelfth

"Come on, Lets go!" I yelled at Dani. "I think I got everything. I am not sure. Where is my camera?" Dani asked back. "It is in the car. Now lets go. It is not gonna wait on us." I said rolling my eyes and shutting the back of Dani's KIA Sportage. Dani came running out of the house with her keys in her hand and phone in the other. "OK, I got everything. I like your outfit." She said getting in the driver seat. "Gamsa (Thanks)" I answered her looking down at my Periodic Table shirt, black skinny jeans, and black converse. Dani rolled her eyes and said, "We are not in Korea yet. You don't have to start that now." I looked at her and smirked. "Well, I am just getting practice. I may also be trying to drive you crazy." Dani just rolled her eyes and started the car. I started to reach for the radio knob when I noticed what Dani was wearing. She had on leggings that looked like newspaper was printed on it with a black shirt that read Try Me and black converse like me. On the ride to the Atlanta airport we blasted BTS's new album Wings since we have not fully listened to it but once. We reached the airport and Dani handled almost everything with the tickets until a police officer thought we were trying to steal tickets. "Excuse me, ladies I am going to need you two to sit over here against the wall." The officer said approaching us. "Why? What did we do? We just got here." I said as the police officer put his hand on my shoulder pushing me back. "What do you think you are doing? Get your hand off my friend!" Dani said grabbing the officers hand and throwing it off. "This is a warning. Dont do that again or I will have to take you in." The officer replied shooting me an evil look. "Is there a problem?" Dani's friend asked coming out of the break room. "Yes, these two ladies just took two tickets to Seoul, South Korea from behind the counter. I will take care of them for you. Thank you for asking Mr." The officer replied smiling then turning to us and giving us a death glare. "No, actually. I know them and those tickets are theirs. I told them to get them while I was on break. They bought them a few weeks ago and I just keep them here so they would not forget them." Matthew replied. "Flight 42 loading now." The intercom announced and I looked at our tickets and we are flight 42. "We have to go!" I said loudly. "I am sorry for the inconvenience ladies." The officer yelled after us as we ran to the plane.
