Its My Turn to Cry

Chapter 1: Meeting You

JENNY:

Busy streets, high towers and buildings, busy people but a wealthy and beautiful environment. That's how I describe Seoul, Korea.

Wahh~ I really missed this place, and loved to be here once again! Well, what can I say? It's nice to be back to my beloved home!

It's a fine afternoon in the beginning of winter here. I'm on my way home from work and I'm a bit tired but I'm still good to go.

I was busy walking on the street when a car suddenly halts right on my way. The driver roll down the window pane and greeted me.

"Hey! Jenny! I'm going to Hongdae today, wanna come with me?" my best friend, Yura, holler as she waves right on the driver's seat. She's my best friend for a month now since I got back here and got my first job.

"Uhmm.. I'm sorry Yura-si, but mom and I will have a dinner with aunt Suzy this evening..and with my childhood friend." I said sheepishly, toned down as I mention the last words. She hop out of her car and walk up to me.

"Yah! You look uneasy. What's with him?" she ask patting my shoulder and eye me suspiciously.

"Uhmm..we're not in good terms before. But I'm okay. I guess I'm ready to face him." I sighed.

"Oh! Then good luck sissy! Go now, prepare yourself for the dinner. I bet he's a hottie!" she giggled.

"Aish! He's not an idol or something! He's just a normal guy as far as I can remember?"

"Well then show him your best. Get dressed! I'll go now. See you some other time. Bye~" she took a quick peck on my cheek and hop on her car then drove off. I wave back and run through the nearest bus stop that could take me home.

As I reach home, I hurriedly took a shower and slip on my favorite tee that my best friend Yura had given me as a birthday present. I paired it with color beige pants and snickers.

Simple but comfy. I usually wore simple clothes rather than a sossy one, but I'm not too picky though, as long as it's comfortable then that would be fine.

I glance at the mirror and fix myself, put some powder and a lip gloss. I jump in surprise as I notice its already 7 in the evening. I'm late so I hurriedly run downstairs and run through the bus stop.

"Mom! I'm..so..sorry..I'm late!" I manage between my pant as I approach her.

"Oh! Hi honey! It's okay, you're just in time." My mom hug me and patted my cheek. She's the best mom ever, she doesn't scold me that much.

"Thanks mom. By the way, where's aunt Suzy?" I asked scanning the hall for that face I struggle to familiarize with.

"Oh! She's outside waiting for Sehun. She's excited to see you!" she giggle and I smile cheekily.

"Oh! Is that my Jenny? My little princess?" a woman of about 50's asked in surprise as she approach us.

"Yes! She is. Jenny, this is your aunt Suzy." Mom introduce, Aunt Suzy then cupped my cheek and pull me into a hug.

"Ohhh...look how pretty my little Jenny is! How are you my dear?" she asked as we both parted.

"I'm good aunt Suzy. I missed Korea." I said.

"Oh~ you better walk around in Seoul, there's a huge changes since you and your mom left. You're just a baby when you leave for Philippines so I guess everything is new to you. By the way, my son will be here in a minute. Do you remember Sehun? Ohh..you're so cute together when you were kids! He's excited to see you too, now that you were finally a gorgeous lady!" aunt Suzy giggled. I smile awkwardly as they both tease me.
