I was in the kitchen cooking when the phone rang. My hopes began to transcend as I frantically made my way across the house. I answered, completely

forgetting about my composure.

            "Krystal! Where are you? Are you ok? Are you hurt? You had me worried to death!" I screamed into the phone. There was a moment of silence, then I

heard her clears .

            "Geez, mom, I'm fine," she replied. Her attitude hadn't changed a bit. She paused once again. "I'm…I'm in South Korea." My jaw dropped. My emotions

attacked the inside of my head and began to battle with each other.

            "South Korea!" I bellowed, "What on earth are you doing there! How did you get there! Oh my goodness Krystal I can not believe you!" I heard her sigh.

            "Wow, mom, you haven't changed a bit. I just wanted you to know I was okay. Bye."

            "Krystal Jung if you hang up this phone…" I was interrupted by a click. I cursed to myself and burst into tears.
