Your POV

Man I feel like I'm going to have a baby. 9 months that's how long it took me to plan this, so it better go smoothly. It has too...

 

Doing everything on my own obviously came with challenge but I know its going to be worth it.

The moment I realized the money my parents gave me would actually cause more harm than good. I got a better well job that would help me transfer to Korea.

 

Of course my parents knew nothing of it, they just thought I was at my little petty job that kept me distracted. Though they did questioned why I was putting in more hours than usually, I told them I was in charge of designing a project. Normally parent would be proud of you right? Well mine just simply gave me a nod and continued onto their dinner. I was just happy that they were always on business trips, it was easier for me to get more hours in.

 

Preparations were as complicated as I thought they would be to say the least.

The ticket was actually the easiest to obtain, since it’s a one way,l I was able to spring for first class.

 

The language surprisingly came easier to me than I thought, my teacher let me move into intermediate half way into my first semester. Though I can’t read Hangul to save my life at, at least in some places they have romanization as well.

 

My jobs, well after leaving my small networking job,  I worked my of a landed a job at billboard. I was in the asian music department, translating (thank god I learned Chinese for 6 years) and subbing for the international viewers. I also oversaw overseas affairs and well anything else I could get my hands on.

 

 In 6 months I managed to work my way up with lots of hard work, intense college classes and taking everyone . I was the one that everyone could depend on and use, also a little kiss helped. On the side I also subbed for dramafever for fun as well as worked on the yesstyle site, thank God for my graphic design and photography classes. But nevertheless I enjoyed the side jobs better.

 

The promotion, I guess you could say, that landed me and ensured way to Korea actually came as just a of pure luck. Billboard wanted to cover the huge Kcon buzz so they sent a team of us there. With some social networking through colleges I met with a producer in Mnet that was somehow informed about my work and was quite impressed.

 

Though I mainly kept to myself so I didn’t know how he knew all that information about me, but I was mentally thanking God as if it was a sign that I was meant to go to Korea. If this opportunity wouldn’t have come I would of spent who knows how long in Korea looking for a job, since my initial plan was to get out of here but the time summer started. It was an added bonus that not many people knew about it and you couldn’t trace my whereabouts.

 

I was originally going to get an officetel with much research, I came to find that it would be better suited for a person like me since its equiped with everything I need a washer, dryer etc. The only thing is that is extremely small which I didn’t mind in the beginning since I would just be me.

 

After talking to some people who I meet at Mnet that were helping me transition to Korea. They suggested that I should spring for a apartment since I would be soon making more. Though I thought that being the nerd I am I  would find one near work and just eat sleep and work... they told me I was crazy. They told me they would take me out more so I would actually have a life. After being told how officetel are usually small even for one person and how the noise from the surrounding companies would make it hard for to sleep. I was convinced I should get an apartment for a better long-term use. Plus who doesn’t love their sleep?

 

Honestly looking into it more apartments are not as bad as I thought they would be. Since its only me again I don’t need much space but now I feel completely spoiled! My villa type apartment actually has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms! I was thinking I could turn on into a office and use the other one for my craft room or get a dog. It was only $2,5000 a month and it came with furniture appliances and has utilities covered. Seriously this only makes my excitement to move even greater! Its not in Seoul but that’s okay I’m not one for extremely crowded areas, anyway Gangnam doesn’t seem so bad. Its the place my future colleagues suggested for me anyways.

 

~***~

Well it’s almost 5 o’clock, my flight leaves around 8. I want to get there earlier just in case. I’ve traveled abroad before so I know how the system works. I’m not sitting in my room taking it all in. I finished school a few weeks ago and ended my last day of work a few days ago. It’s official, I’m leaving finally!

 

I already looked around the house to make sure I didn’t forget anything. I take one last glance at my room, my home for almost my entire existence, I then look to my suitcases and  thought Wow I packed my entire existence in those bags. Of course I couldn’t take things too noticeable or else my parents would notice I left. But that’s okay I have the things that matter to me most, I could always buy more in Korea. Taking a deep breathe, I knew it was time.

 

Just then I heard a *Beep, click*

“” I murmured softly under my breathe. I quickly dove into my room.

 

“Hana are you home” I heard my father call, then I heard foot steps. Damn I shoved my luggage under my bed and pretended to be a sleep. A soft knock was heard from my door followed by it opening. I stiffed a bit as I felt someone touching me. I hate being touched  by them. When I was shaken I pretended to waken up like I’ve slept for hours.

 

“No work today? Why are you sleeping this late? Come down stairs we brought home dinner” My mother said in a neutral tone. When she left my room, I couldn’t help but thinking what the hell am I going to do next.

 

Carefully I walked down stairs my parents already started dinner without me. I sat down and began to eat but I couldn’t help but concentrate on the clock every second felt like an eternity.

 

What to do what to do. Seriously why of all days did they come home? I look to my left to see their luggage. Could I blend mine in with theirs? No my in too noticeable, really now I regret getting on that you could easily spot right away. I could tell them I got a call  from work and needed to go in but how am I going to get my luggage out my car should be coming soon! My luggage is way too big to say that  it contain materials for work!

 

 It’s 6:30 now c’mon Hana think! The window! I’ll shove it out the window there are bushes underneath I’m sure if I aim right it’ll be fine! I need to hurry my car is going to come soon! *Beep* Oh my life really! My dad goes outside to see what the noise is, then comes in shortly after.

 

“Weird, the driver said someone called for him. Hana did you? He was pretty pissed when I told him no one here is in need of her service” he asked raising an eyebrow at me. Well thanks dad.

 

I looked at him with a blank face and in a monotone said “ No, maybe he got the wrong address or something” then turned back to what I was doing. Inside I was dying.

 

It was almost 7 when my parents decided to head upstairs to unpack. It’s now or never! Luckily my parents’ room was across the house from mine but I still had to go this as quietly as possible. I opened my window and stuck my hand out along with my luggage, man was it heavy, I tried my best to aim properly and *Boom* it landed properly but it was still sorta loud.

 

“Hana are you okay in there?” My dad asked while knocking

 

“Yeah I fell trying to catch  something I dropped” I shouted back, damn was that believeable?

 

“Alright” He simply replied with a tone that clearly showed he thought I was an idiot. When I heard him leave I let out a sigh. I waited 5 minutes before gathering my stuff to head down as quietly as I couldn’t.

 

I went out the back door since it doesn’t sound when you use it. Running as quietly as I could I retrieved my luggage, which was only a little dinged up thank God. Carrying it through the yard, I put down to wheel when I hit the driveway, when I heard a male’s voice.

 

“Where do you think you’re going?” I almost screamed and peed my pants right then and there. Damn I’m caught! I cautiously turn to see that it was my brother Henry.

 

“ You almost gave me a heart attack!” I yelled in a whisper

 

“That doesn’t answer my question now does it?” He raised an eyebrow at me while crossing his arms.

 

We walked a bit of the property with my luggage securely in Henry’s hands. Sighing   I explained everything to him as fast and detailed as I could. He just listened to me with a  poker face.

 

“ Are you going to rat me out?” I spoke annoyed  after an awkward silence. If hes going to rat me out at least do it inside, its cold. I turned to see him smiling at me a pulled me into an embrace.

 

“ I’m proud of you little sis, you’re finally doing what you want in life” He voiced proudly. I looked at him in shock and he grabbed my luggage and started to walk away.

“What are you doing? Don’t you have a plane to catch! C’mon I’ll drive you!” he said with a smile. I look at him and returned the smile and hurried to catch up with him.  When we got to the car we started to catch up. I really missed him.

 

“What are you doing here anyways? I thought you were out of town! Plus you somehow always know when mom and dad come back. You always avoid them like you’re life depended on it!”

 

Henry just simply smile while keeping his eyes on the road “ What ? Can’t I come see my baby sister? I miss you and brought you back a gift. By the way sorry for not giving you the heads up about mom and dad. It slipped my mind”

 

I let out a soft chuckle “ I missed you too. Remind me again why I can’t live with you? I mean their not even home most of the time, the house is so lonely”

 

He slightly turned to me and grabbed my hand “ I know, I’m sorry. I just prefer you to stay there because its safer” I just nodded understanding

 

The drive was faster than I expected which should be a good thing but I didn’t want it to. The whole ride was full with laughter and happiness something I haven’t had in the longest time.

 

My brother walked me in to send me off. I was fully checked in by 7:45 we sat together till my plane was called. When it did, I felt heavy. I turned to look at him with tears in my eyes, he just came me a comforting smile and helped me up.

 

“ C’mon Hannie don’t be like that” I sniffled and quickly embraced him. I never expected him to be here but I’m happy he was. I couldn’t of gone without saying goodbye to him.

 

He walked me to my gate holding me tightly next to him. “ Remember I’m still always here. I’m just a phone call away! If you ever need anything I’ll be on the next plane possible. Anything the princess needs” He gave me his goofy smile, which I couldn’t help give you in return.

 

“ Remember what to tell mom and dad if they ask?”

 

“Yeah you had to go to an emergency call and went to work, so I dropped you off because I didn’t want you to drive at night. If they ask again, a co-worker is suppose to drop you off and I haven’t seen or spoken to you since then” He expertly recites

 

I give him one last smile and hug before going into my terminal. He grabs me gently and takes off his necklace then puts it on my neck. I touch it and look up at him.

 

“To keep you safe” He simply said I hugged him tightly when he snuck something into my hand as he broke off the huge.

 

“ A little gift which also so happens to be perfect for the occasion” With that he gave me a small shove to my gate

 

“Be careful princess” He said brotherly trying to be manly

 

“ I love you Hen! Take care of yourself as well” I blew him a kiss and headed to my gate and boarded the plane

 

I sat down with minutes to spare. The overhead sounded “Good Evening ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome on board Korean airlines flight 112 service from California to Seoul,, South Korea. We ask that you take to your seats and have your seat belts securely fastened so we will departing shortly. Thank you"

 

Its happening. With that thought the plane took off.
