IM with YOO

03

"It's eleven in the morning." JeongYeon groaned as her butt was slapped by her mother.

"Wake up now." Her mother shouted pulling the blanket from her.

"What time it is?" JeongYeon asked sitting up on the bed.

"Eleven in the morning." Her mother said once again.

"Hyung left?" She asked jumping from the bed.

"Yeah." Her mother said folding the blanket.

"He talked something with dad?" JeongYeon asked looking at her mother.

"No. why?"

"Nothing." JeongYeon said and went inside the bathroom.

JeongYeon took a quick shower as always. She came out from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body while drying her hair with another towel and found that her mother had left the room. She wore her clothes and combed her hair. She winked at her reflection, grabbed her wallet and phone before going downstairs.

"Mom, breakfast." She said walking inside the kitchen.

"In the fridge." Her mother shouted from the living room.

JeongYeon had her breakfast quickly and came out from the kitchen. She slammed herself on the couch beside her mother while taking out her phone from her pocket. She rested her head in her mother's lap who was busy reading a newspaper.

"How's your arm now?" Her mother asked making JeongYeon look at her.

"How did you know?"

"The way you were eating last night." She said folding the papers and put them on the table.

"It's fine. I'm fine now." JeongYeon said sitting up on the couch.

"Mom, will you help me?"

"You have another match?" Her mother asked before she could say anything.

"Yeah. so, will you...?"

"No, last time you came with your broken bone."

"Mom, please. I'll be fine."

"No, JeongYeon."

"You're the best you know. You're the best mom ever. No one can replace you."

"Good to know that but still you're not going." She said making JeongYeon sigh.

JeongYeon got up from her place fixing her shirt and left the house without saying anything. She looked at the neighbourhood where people were fixing their things on a truck. JeongYeon leaned on the three feet boundary wall that was the border between the two houses.

"Are you guys moving?" JeongYeon asked the woman.

"Hey, JeongYeon. Yeah, we're moving now."

"Where?"

"Busan." The woman said. JeongYeon nodded looking at the people putting the things in the truck.

"So, how was your boxing match?" The woman asked.

"It was fine. I just got sprained."

"Take care of yourself."

"Yeah, you too. I'm going now." JeongYeon said standing straight.

"This will be our last meeting." The woman said.

"Don't worry. I'll love our new neighbours better than you." JeongYeon said and chuckled making the woman shook her head.

JeongYeon headed toward her unknown destination putting her hands in her pocket. It was cold outside even though it was afternoon. JeongYeon was thinking where to go and suddenly a place popped out inside her head.
