Love, Life, and Jennifer

Love, Life, and Jennifer
USA


Mom and Dad are back home!


This is slower than the actual estimate considering, papa was supposed to have retired 3 months ago!


Young Joon and I are having a warm conversation with my parents in the living room of my grandmother's house.


"Papa you said still want to enjoy the past together with mama in America, yesterday... That's why we don't go straight back to the indo, papa retired." Mama's say


Papa rubbed my mother's shoulder, which was inside her embrace.


"Oh yeah, when are you going to America?" Ask Young Joon.


I was surprised to hear Papa say that, how could he know? Ahhhhh! Young Joon's.


"Front week, pa!" Young Joon replied, then sipped some warm tea.


"Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... So you bought a house in Georgetown?" Papa's words this time made me choke, while sipping sweet tea


"Ohuuukkk.... Uhuukk!!!"


Young Joon swiftly patted my back.


I looked at her, patting my chest.


"Jenny why, son?" Papa seemed to worry me


"No, not pa." Answer me


***************************


While in the apartment, I was looking for Young Joon with a lot of questions.


"Why didn't you tell me about this?!" I said intimidating


"I-i, just..."


"How do they know about this?!"


"That-that's..."


"And about where we're going to live..."


"Jenny..."


Young Joon looked me in the face, then approached me.


"They should know it..." He said with a serious look.


"I'm..."


"Sleep, it's night..." He said then passed.


I looked at him when he opened the door to his room.


"Young Joon..."


I forgot what to say, Young Joon looked at me.


"Hmmmm?" Young Joon smiled.


Unnerved... Any more... Why is his face so handsome... He really looks like Chul Soo (Song Joongki) with that kind of look.


Young Joon walked towards me, still with the same gaze...


"What's up, hmmmm?"


I took a deep breath, and took my eyes off her.


"I'm..."


Young Joon kissed my forehead, when I turned to him.


"Good night, sweet dreams..." He said then passed, a moment after wiping the top of my head.


******************************


"Inget, if it's winter again, don't go on!" Mama's say


"Yeah... No, mama... I want to learn!" I said, then hugged her.


"Jenny..." Papa came up to me, and I broke my embrace from my mother.


"Yes, pa..." I said and approached him.


Papa grabbed both of my faces.


"Part yourself well there, yeah... And always remember, now you are, already a wife of people... Always ask Young Joon for permission, whenever there's a need." Papa kissed my forehead, as well as the top of my head, shortly after I nodded.


"Young Joon, we're taking Jenny... Take good care of him... And call us right away, if you can't handle his childish attitude."


"Yes, pa! That's for sure!" Young Joon smiled.


We waved our hands as soon as we left them... Sad, for sure! Just this week I was able to get back with my mom and dad... But, it's okay... We can stay patient! Technology is getting more sophisticated, right?


While in the passenger seat, I took out a music player, as well as earphones.


I find my favorite song every time I get on a plane.


Got it! I immediately put the earphone to the ear, and...


"You like that song?" Young Joon glanced at my music player.


I turned to her, and nodded faintly.


"This is my favorite song."


🎼In the arm of an angel is playing


Along my way to America... A country where I can momentarily turn my feelings towards my first love...


******************************


"Yesdonaang!!! I have returned!!!!!!!" I kind of screamed when I spoke over the phone, so moving my feet in America!


Young Joon is staring at me!


"Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... My love!!! Finally!!! I would love to meet you!!!" Shierly was so enthusiastic across there!


"I'll see you guys, as soon as I put the suitcase home!" I walk with a big smile!


Young Joon is still looking at me with a dislike look!


"By the way, are you going to occupy your old house?"


"Shierly darling... Of course, no! That's company property!"


Young Joon's facial expression changed immediately, once I said Shierly's name! I can even see, he smiled with relief!


I immediately closed the call.


"Who did you call?"


"Do I have to tell you!" Sinisku to him, dragging my suitcase


"of course! You forgot your papa's message, when we were in In..."


"He's my American lover!" My answer then goes ahead of him!


Young Joon sped up his pace, in order to get back on par with me.


"Hey! What do you mean!" He looks grimacing


"What!" I said I kept walking regardless.


"So you mentioned Shierly's name! Is he a man? Why would anyone have a name like that?!"


I laughed when I heard it!


"You're! Ahahahaaaaaa!!!"


"Mr Park." A white man approached us.


We automatically stop our steps.


"Yes?" Young Joon replied


"I'm Bryan, from LAND corp. " Say the man, then extend his hand.


Young Joon immediately welcomed the man's hand.


"Aaaahh... You're the guy William told me about, aren't you?!" Young Joon said with a big smile!


***********************


We have arrived in front of a house that looks familiar to me!


Isn't it like the house I chose when Young Joon asked me to choose?


"Okay sir, please reset the access code to open the door." The man directs Young Joon to look at the number listed at the entrance of the house.


"One more time, sir. With the same number."


Young Joon is back massaging the numbers.


"Done!" Said


"Okay sir, here are the letters, and... I think you have a week to start your work here, and... Welcome aboard! Welcome to our American branch..." He said with a smile.


They hugged him afterwards, though,


"All right, Miss Park. Excuse me first, I heard you've been living in America long enough, so I thought you'd get used to it soon." He said with a friendly smile


"Of course, thank you, Mr. Bryan." My leg is friendly


After Mr. Bryan left, I stared intently at Young Joon!


"You!"


Young Joon rubs the back of his head.


"Look..."


"Forget it!" Piqued


"Why not ask my opinion, to determine this key number!" I'm really upset about Young Joon's attitude! He doesn't appreciate my existence!


"Jenny I..."


"Is..."


"Jenny I used our wedding date..."


I'm flabbergasted... Young Joon hesitated to continue.


"I thought it would be easier to remember."


Silence, until...


"Let's look inside!" Young Joon dragged his suitcase inside.


There are two floors in this house! There is a pantry on the lower floor, which is not far from the entrance.


The room is quite spacious, but there is only a pantry, as well as a small room on the lower floor, the rest... It's like a big living room!


There is already furniture available there, and arguably, the layout is not much different from my old house in Forks, my old house.


Once on the second floor, there are 3 rooms there, and... Woo-wwww!!! As per picture! The balcony is quite large! Ahahaah!!! I developed a smile!


"Jenny..." Young Joon seemed to ask me to approach him who is now in front of the door of a room.


I'll approach her soon.


"Yes, what's wrong?" I said


He opened the door of the room, daaaannn...


Waw! This is the main room! It's a little different from my two rooms in Indonesia, or in Forks! It's more spacious, and the layout of his furniture, much different!


There is no sofa in front of the mattress, because it will feel as tight as it looks! There is no sofa here!


This room also has a balcony, and a bathroom in the room!


I approached Young Joon...


"Young Joon, this is..."


"This is your room..."


Relieved... At least, Young Joon didn't say 'our room'.


"Thank you." My speech


"All right, I'm going to my room..."


"Young Joon..." I said, when Young Joon was about to pass.


"Hmmmm?"


"Yummm... I-I want to see friends..."


"Aaaahh... Go away..." He said then passed, but when he was just at the door, Young Joon stopped his steps, and turned his head towards me


"Do you want me to take you?"
