My My
ReminiscenceBy the time we got to the festival nearby, I already knew about half of Byulyi's extended family, made me wonder if I looked too reliable to her or she was like that with everyone, like an open book.
She didn't let me sit, handled me a tray and made me serve everyone with snacks and drinks with her, so many giggling faces really made my day, every time I think about that day my mood gets better instantly,
People there, liked to talk, they didn't care who it was they were talking to, they just liked to talk, hence, how I found myself between a group of fifty year olds talking about their days of college and honestly none of what was said during those ten minutes is safe for anyone to hear,
After a while, Byulyi seemed to take pity on me and pulled me out of the group, she laughed at my blushing face, my ears hurt from embarrassment and I couldn't help but touch them constantly, Byulyi teasingly blew on one of them as if it would help, it only turned them more red, I had to push her away,
"I'm sorry their conversations take crazy turns sometimes."
"Yeah.."
I looked ahead as people started to gather in the middle and music slowly started playing, Byulyi pushed me ahead,
"Go Dance!" She yelled,
"Won't you come?" I asked
"No, I like to watch!"
"Unnie just go!!" She yelled again after I waited for her, confused, well as long as she was watching, I didn't mind dancing a bit, I was there to have fun after all,
I must have looked funny dancing there, because she was holding her stomach from laughing too hard, it just made me want to dance more, a man my father's age started copying my steps, I didn't have the time to feel embarrased because a whole group was now following me, I'm not proud of the steps we did, but that moment will always have a special place in my heart,
Then Byulyi stood up and joined me, "You're having too much fun." She yelled above the music,
"You've got cute neighbours." I replied, she laughed, following my rhythm, everyone had started doing their own thing now as a slow song played,
"Too bad no one your age is here." She winked and see, the problem with Byulyi was that she made me too comfortable too soon,
"You're pretty close to my age.." I had replied, and she was silenced for few seconds, my mouth parted
