Going out

I woke up from the sunshine peeking through the curtains on my face and illuminating my entire room. yawning and stretching I rubbed open my eyes and held my face in the direction of sunlight. The warm sensation of the morning sunlight fills me with hope and calm my mind. After 5 minutes of peace and making journal of today's activities in my mind, I raised from my cozy bed, took a quick shower and threw on a long casual lemon skater frock with button-up neckline and short sleeves. I slipped into my white Mary Janes and did a 360° spin in front of the mirror.

"Ahh perfect! "

I smiled to myself and headed downstairs to see my mom watching TV in her grey chiffon tiered knee-length jacket dress. she was wearing her favorite pearl necklace and earrings. " going out mom? " I asked as I made a beeline to the kitchen and poured myself a glass of orange juice. "I was expecting a good morning greeting but okay and yes we are going out " she announced with her eyes still fixed on the screen. " ow! sorry I saw you all dressed up so I forgot the formalities but what do you mean by 'we' ??"

" I want you to meet someone "

I chugged down the full glass of juice and ran towards the couch

" don't tell me it's your boyfriend? "

I asked in excitement, hoping to get a yes in answer.

Mom is dating a man for 2 years now and she still haven't told me about who is he. I asked her a few times to introduce us but everytime she would make an excuse or tell me he is busy.

" Jesus Christ! you are acting like you're going to see spiderman "

" come on mom he is your boyfriend I have the right to be excited and btw I don't like spiderman, I like Hulk "

she gave me a brief annoyed glance and stood up from the couch.

" so my little reader is taking a day off from the library right? "

" umm yes I have to even though I don't feel good about it. I can make a sacrifice for my Mama's Boyfriend. " I said with a grin and helped mom doing the breakfast dishes and then we left to her boyfriend's place in my Hyundai 120.

"how long is it going to take mom?"

I pressed on the accelerator pedal violating the speed limit on highway.

"have you gone nuts Julia! slow down we do not want to die today."

mom scolded me again for my rash driving and I scoffed before I slowed down.

Driving is not my most favorite thing. I just like to sit in the passenger seat and behold the world outside.

" you are using gps, aren't you? it is not that far so calm your senses. "

" yes ma'am ... "

I rolled my eyes and sigh before starting a normal conversation with mom. it is a special day for her, for me and probably for Mr. jeon (Mom's boyfriend) too so I will try not to ruin it with my bad temper.

"anyways mom, does Mr. Jeon have other members in his family?"

mom didn't look in my direction and held her gaze outside on the tree-lined avenue. After a moment of silence she opened her mouth to answer.

" he has a son. His name is Jungkook and he is 19 year old. "

" wow! so I will get to play with him and pacify him or maybe bully him cuz imma be his noona "

I let out an evil chuckle before pulling into the driveway of Mr. Jeon's house.

"don't you dare bully him Julia. He is so innocent for your satanic soul"
