#after the gang encounter#

I visited more often the house next door,since I got fired after not going once to the cafe and was unemployed...both job's bosses told me to leave because of violence problems.Still the lady next door helped me clean the ugly words that those guy left and let me spend more time with her.She was so kind with me,she acted so motherly towards me, that she actually told me to call her "eomma".She looked so young and I couldn't believe that she was married to a man younger than her and that she was a mom of 3 children,she spoke a lot of her three sons that she loved dearly.The big one was gone for his service in army and the second son was always away for work and lastly but not least her little son that was going to middle school.She said that she always wanted a daughter.

I grew a strong bond with her. We often dine outside and talked about her.I remember the day she told me that she was the one that fell in love at first sight with her husband since he was so handsome and that she was the one courting him.

"If he likes you and you like him,then ask him out!Why wait for the guy to make the first step?"she stated proudly.
"He is younger than me after all...i needed to do something or we would still be waiting for him to muster his courage"
After listening to her attentively,she suddenly stopped narrating her story and asked:
"You know I talk so much,that I just noticed that I know nothing much of you"she pouted.
"I am not trying to be rude or anything,I just want to know you more than the girl from the States that saved my life and stay next to me...if you know what I mean"

"Actually I have nothing much to say" I lied,still not in the position to talk about my past.
"If you want to know something in special,just ask it...I will try to answer"I didn't want to lose her and wanted to build a solid relationship between us.After all,I wanted to cherish her as the motherly figure I never had.

Her confident smile came back after my effort to try and open up a little.
"Where are your parents?Do your parents live in The State or something like that?"

"Actually my dad died of cancer when I was 10 and my mom left us when I was 4... so until last year I lived with my aunt in LA"

She dropped her spoon and had a shocked face."Sorry for my questions...I will just stop and say that you are an amazing person and the daughter I always wanted."

"Aniyo...don't be sorry,I am actually very fortunate to have a wonderful person such as you right now with me."
"Please you can continue..."

"I don't want to but...how come you are so good at fighting?And how come you have such a good Bousan accent?..i mean you just came here isn't it?"

"I actually I own a black belt in taekwondo and since little I practiced archery and other athletics activities...And aniyo,I'm not a foreigner,i was born here and lived here for 11 years until I got transfered to LA"

"Daebak... so you studied here until the first year of middle school....that's why you are a fluent speaker....and do you have a namja chingu...a boyfriend?"

I choked on the water I was drinking and busted into laughter."Aniyo,I actually don't know much of such things...I went to an all girls schools.Moreover guys don't like girls like me that gets involved into fights."

"You know since you are currently without a job and everytime you get kicked out because of your fighting impulsive,why don't you try a work where you could use that force and fight skills in your favour?"

"If that could be possible it would be great...I mean I am too old to join law school and get employed as a police officer and neither can I do illegal jobs such as assassins or secret agents..."I spoke my thoughts loudly.

"I think that was a little to deep...why not simply go for bodyguard?"

"You mean the knockouts guys of a club or like those human shield for idols?"

"Yes,one of those...I heard that there is one company in Seoul that's having a competition to recruit the best bodyguards for an idol comeback."
"I think you should give it a try,you could rent one of those combo rooms in town and have a good pay job."

"I mean I need to gain money...since my savings are limited,but I will need to shift in town for that."
"I don't know anyone there and I need to start again form the bottom."i released a sigh and had a sad expression.

"You can call me anytime and don't worry you are a strong girl."
"You will be able to manage."
