Classic 20

Day 3 everything goes well as what as I have planned. Peacefully. And I got to meet my family again.

We have been travelling from places to places even though I just got here 3 days ago.

'Yujin calling...'

"So where are you going now?"
"I still don't know. Mom lets me sleep longer for today. Maybe I am out before lunch."
"Okay."

Done choosing my clothes. Perfect.

'Calling Mama...'

"Mom. I'm hungry."
"Kumain ka na diyan."
"Bakit niyo ko iniwan??"
"Hindi ka magising."
"Nagugutom na ko."
"1 hour pa bago kami makarating."
"Okay! Hintay ko na lang kayo."

Oh. I thought one hour pa.

"Coming!"
"Ma bakit... W-what!"
"Areum!"
"Hello Areum!"

And the door reveals the 7 member of BTOB.

"What are you doing here?! How..."
"Before we catch too much attention can we go in?"

And I cannot stop them anymore. I was glaring at all of them.

"Now care to explain. How did..."

And I remember Yujin?? Why? I don't understand.

"Hello everyone I am asking what are you doing here?"

No one wants to answer me or even pay attention on what I am asking since most of them roam around my hotel room aside from Ilhoon who just stay near the door.

"Us? We are going to have a vacation as well."
"So?"
"And that will not happen if you are not going to talk with hyung."
"What?" Huh?
"Seriously? Is that important? You should have call me instead though than going here."
"Areum please!"

And one by one they are all pleading when suddenly the door opens.

"Ellie..."
"Ma!"

Mom is so shock looking at me and back to the boys. As if she was trying to understand everything.

"Mageexplain po ako."

"Ah aren't we going to greet her mom?"
"Hello!"

Mom fake a smile with the boys.
And now Papa is calling.

I glared at these boys. Napakagandang timing.

"Explain."
"Ma nagugutom na po ako sa labas ko na lang ikukwento. Mauuna na rin sila. Everyone? You are going to leave right?"

No one wants to go out even when I told them to.

"Walang lalabas."
"Fine I will explain..."

It took longer than I expected.

"Yun na yun?"
"Yun lang yun. Can we eat na I'm hungry."

Done. Maybe it is time for my lunch.

Maybe not?
"Mama!" Its the voice of my father probably coming to my room.

Mom and I immediately tried to hide the seven boys.

"Ellie was looking for something we should head down first."

"Japanese?"
"Shhh"

As soon as my parents left.

"Oppa! Please if you want me back alive to Korea don't you ever come again without prior notice and honestly I'm really hungry wont you mind leaving first? Don't worry I wont go out immediately after you."

"Hurry up! I haven't had my breakfast."

Maybe that is why I noticed the past 3 days it was peacefully ended. Is this what everyone called 'the calm before the storm'?

While we are having our lunch. I choke with my own food when I saw who is coming to seat beside our table. Seriously what am I going to do with these people.

"Oh uminom ka nga."

Feeling ko nagflashback na yung buong pagkatao ko nung nabulunan ako parang nakakita na ako ng liwanag ng mga 3 seconds.

I remember how shock the boys are earlier when they heard Papa's voice. Yes he is a Japanese, he wasn't my real father but I am his adopted daughter. He supported me since I was 3, sounds ungrateful but I never learned their language I mean I can understand some phrases but not to the extent I can converse with people. I don't know why I find it hard. That is why mom is my human translator.

Like right now.

"Ano daw plano mo after ng bakasyon?"

Lets play a little game tutal ginutom niyo akong pito at mukha naman na nakikichismis kayo. Since I am aware with the fact that they can understand Japanese.

"Mag-aasawa."

I saw how the boys choke on their food and stop their self from laughing after hearing the translation.

"Magpapakasal na kayo?"

And it's time for me to choke for the second time. Ano sign na ba ito malapit na ba talaga akong kunin ni Lord?

Mom knows about him but never knew who he was. However I forgot to tell her that we ended up few months ago.

Wow nachika na pala ni momshie kay papa kaya ayun yung pito sobrang tahimik nakikinig sa chikahan namin.

"Ilang taon na nga ba kayo?"
"1? 2? Ewan." It has been so long that I even forget about it already.
"Kailan daw mamimeet ni Papa mo?" Not a chance since we are done way before.

Before I can even answer I heard them talking making it looks like they are talking to one another but the questions are directly on me.

"Ehem! ehem! Are we hearing everything right?"
"Can you make it more clear?"
"I mean Areum we also still want to be alive when coming back to Korea."

It is the first time they probably heard about him.

"Ma honestly I'm just kidding earlier. Matagal na kaming hiwalay."
"Bakit?"
"He chose whats best for us."
"Kailan pa?"
"6? 8? months? Baka 1 year na siguro."

I was interrupted by a call.

"I'll just take this call. Excuse me."

When I came back to my seat. The boys are gossiping.

"Really?"
"Who is he?"
"I don't have any idea."

As if I cant understand them.

"Going back I'm fine. Maybe I will do the same if I was in his position might as well chose for what's best not for us but for everyone." Mom translated exactly what I said.

"You really grew up so well. Kaya lang tigil tigilan mo kasi yang pagiging suplada mo. Tatanda kang dalaga. Ganoon na pala katagal eh bakit wala pamg kapalit?"

I just glared at my mom.

Maybe now you heard my reason, you can understand why I decided to turn down your confession.
