Jung Eunji?? Am I dreaming???
LYR : Eunji?? Is this really you?
JEJ : My God, Yoori. I missed you. We hugged tightly.
Wait!! I did not only saw Eunji but Seung Ho, Bo Gum and Yoongi too. What!!??
LYR : Hello, Seung Ho and Bo Gum. It has been so long. How are you? And I hugged them one by one.
PBG : It's definitely been so long. Thanks to Ji-eun, we finally met.
LYR : This is why you didn't pick up my call, right Yoongi? He just smiled and shrugged at me.
LYR : Lee Ji-eun??
LJE :Okay Yoori, take a deep breath. Why don't we come inside and let's have our dinner first, hmmm? Then, I will tell you everything, I promise.
LYR : Fine, make sure you don't missed anything. I want to know every single of it. You really surprised me.
Ji-eun's eomma had prepared a feast for all of us. And she don't forget my favourite too, "Ganjang-gejang". We're chatting with each other while having our dinner. Ji-eun's eomma is the best, all the foods tonight was fantastic. Plus, my friends are all here and that's what makes tonight dinner so special. Thanks to Ji-eun for making this happen.
After having our dinner then help Ji-eun's eomma clear the dining room and wash the dishes, Ji-eun's brings us out to their poolside bar. Her eomma again, prepared drinks and dessert for us. And her appa said, there's variety of liquor and alcohol beverage at the pool bar, so we can help ourselves.
LYR : Wow Ji-eun, your house was magnificent. I loved it.
LJE : Thank you Yoori ah. It's not mine, it's my appa.
LYR : Yah, what belongs to your appa is yours too.
JEJ : I love the scenery. It's so beautiful. Imagine looking at the sunset every evening, because it's near the ocean...ahhh healing.
LJE : Oh, Eunji this is your 1st visit too, right? you didn't have time to visit that day, because you were quite busy.
JEJ : Yup. I'm so glad I could visit this time.
I looked at Ji-eun and raised my eyebrows as a sign for her to tell me what is actually happened.
LJE : Okay, okay I get you. You don't even give me time to breathe.
LYR : Hey!
All the seven of us sitting at the poolside bar waiting for Bo Gum to finished make our cocktails. Oh yes, he's a certified bartender though he's a successful lawyer.
LJE : Okay, for a start I don't actually planning this, right Min-Hyuk oppa?
And all eyes on Min-Hyuk as he nodded.
LJE : The idea popping up just like that. When was it? Oh yeah, last Wednesday. And Yoori, you don't have any idea, what I'm going through while trying to call all of them, especially Yoongi. Luckily, oppa had a connection to someone inside his agency, that's how I got to talked to him. And I was just lucky because Eunji and Seung Ho scheduled happen to be in Korea. Well, for Bo Gum, he don't have important cases to handle at the moment, so yeah he definitely agree to this. I just had one concern that if you guys cancel it last minute due to something unavoidable, then today's meeting are not going to happen. But as you can see, we are all here and I'm so happy and excited.
LYR : Thank you so much Ji-eun ah for making this happen. I love you. I'm so happy meeting the three of you. And I wanted to apologize for not get in touch with you for so long. Why I don't even trying? I feel so much regret.
JEJ : Oh please don't say that. Past is past. Let's bygone be bygone. Forget it. What's important is in the present.
PBG : We are separated because we are chasing each other's dreams. Of course something has changed. We can't connect with each other doesn't mean we didn't try to do something about it but sometimes it's just not easy and it may take time. So, Yoori and you too Yoongi, there's no need to feel guilty for not being able to contact us after so long. Let us enjoy this joyful moment, right now.
LYR : Thank you Eunji, Bo Gum. Thank you.
🐱Thanks bro. I talked to Yoori about this before and we both agreed that we didn't do anything to look for you guys, I mean we didn't even try. I don't even try to look for Yoori too. I'm such a terrible friend. So please, forgive me.
YSH : Yah Yoongi, stop. We understand okay? You too Yoori. Stop being guilty. Now that we've met, let's continue to meet after this, at least we can plan to have a meeting once in 3 months maybe? but of course it depends on our respective schedules. What do you all say?
PBG : I agree with Seung Ho. Forget the past, life goes on.
LJE : I'm in. I definitely agree with Seung Ho. But please no last minute planning okay? Please inform everyone before hand. Wait, let me create our group chat, right here, right now or else I'll forgot about it later. Oppa, I add you too okay?
KMH : Up to you babe, I have no problems.
LJE : Okay...let me add one by one...Yoongi, Yoori, Eunji, Seung Ho, Bo Gum....and Min-Hyuk oppa. There you go... it's done.
🐱Thanks Ji-eun. By the way Seung Ho, tell me how did you guys end up with each other, you and Eunji?
YSH : Haha... it's happened just like that. Babe, you tell them or me? He looked at Eunji.
JEJ : Go ahead, tell them. She giggled.
YSH : Well, a few years after graduation. Both of us, happen to attend a runway models audition together. You all know, we both interested in fashion. We always doing part time model before. So, when there's an audition looking for runway model, we grabbed the opportunity and both of us has been selected. We've been to, so many places together doing our job and both of us are still single. After knowing her for so long, I confess I actually have a feeling for her and I definitely don't want to lose her. And I'm glad, we have mutual feeling. So yeah that's it.
LYR : Yay! I'm so happy for you Eunji, both of you. Congratulations! I hope to hear a good news from both of you soon. And of course, congratulations to Ji-eun and Min-Hyuk-ssi too, your big day will be end of this year, right?
LJE : Yup. Make sure to free all of your schedule by end of year because you all are going to be our bridesmaid and groomsmen. Don't worry, I will inform the actual date, 2 months before. And please I don't want to hear any excuses that you can't make it. Especially you Yoongi.
All eyes are on Yoongi.
🐱Why? Why are you all looking at me?"
LYR : Because they know, how tight is your schedule. How busy you are, global superstar."
🐱Oh, stop it Yoori. I'm not a superstar. Please....
LJE : Look who's talking.
🐱 Ji-eun no...
LYR : Wait...wait. What about you Bo Gum ah? Do you have someone special back in Seoul?
YSH : Yeah bro, tell us.
PBG : Well, I do. But we're still in the process of getting to know each other. I met her 6 months ago while attending an art exhibition. She's a curator and 2 years younger than me. She has loveable personality, matured, adventurous and organized. I will try to bring her when we have another meeting in future and introduce her to all of you.
JEJ : That's good. I cannot wait. What about yourself Yoori?
LYR : Haha Eunji. The answer to your question is no. I'm not in a relationship. I guess I was attached to my work for now, I don't have time for a serious relationship.
All of a sudden, Ji-eun was coughing and tried to cleared his throat.
KMH : You okay babe? What happened? Min-Hyuk rubbing her back slowly.
LJE : Sorry, I was choking to my saliva, that's why I'm coughing.
I looked at Ji-eun and she looked at me. We looked into each other's eyes for a moment as we know what the meaning of all her doing just now. And I'm sure Min-Hyuk knew about this too. I mouthed her "please" but Ji-eun just looked away.
YSH : What about you, Yoongi?
🐱Guys, you know how tight is my schedules. I don't think, it will be good to start a relationship in my situation right now. I'm afraid, I will only make her suffer because I don't have time for her and I'm always away. So no.
PBG : You know, you can if you want Yoongi. Relationship are about giving and making compromises. You cannot expect to receive something if you don't offer on your own turn. It should be balance. You saying that you might be afraid you don't have time for her but when you in a relationship later, the situation will be different. If you are meant for each other, you will do your best to maintain the relationship. Trust me.
YSH : Wow! Park Bo Gum...a beautiful words you have there. I mean what do we expect? He's a lawyer after all. But Yoongi, just chill out. The time will come sooner or later. You too, Yoori.
🐱Thank you Seung Ho ah. Thanks to you too Bo Gum. I really appreciate it.
JEJ : Yah Yoori, just relax. Stop stressing out, it's show all over your face.
LYR : I'm okay Eunji ah...really. Wait, do you guys going back to Seoul tonight or tomorrow?
JEJ : Oh come on, who's going back tonight...Seung Ho and me, will be staying another night. We'll going back on monday. We have a few schedules in Seoul before going back to Milan."
PBG : I'm going back tomorrow. My flight is around 2pm.
🐱 Same goes to me. What about you, Yoori?
LYR : What a coincidence, we have the same flight.
🐱Actually, we staying at " The Shilla Jeju". Yeah, Ji-eun's hotel. I arrived around 1130 this morning and it's so hard to refrain myself for not calling you but I've promise to Ji-eun that this will be a surprise for you, so I just let you think that I'm still pissed and wondering where am I. My members knows about this too.
I looked at Yoongi with a surprise look.
LYR : What!?? So Namjoon and Jimin knew you were here? Why on earth did they convinced me that they don't know anything? Gosh, that brats. They will get from me.
🐱Oho please, don't be mad. I begged them to not tell you anything. And I'm surprised, Namjoon really hold his tongue this time, he normally couldn't keep his mouth shut.
LYR : Or you threatened him that you'll tell Jin oppa he broke his game console?
🐱What?? No. Joon will kill me though.
LYR : As if he dare. The moment you open your mouth, Joon will definitely be back off.
🐱Yah, I'm not that scary.
LYR : Yeah right.
JEJ : Emm Min-Hyuk-ssi, sorry to ask...but which hospital did you attached with?
KMH : Oh I'm attached with Seoul National University - Bundang Hospital. But I'm planning to open my own clinic in this island by next year. I can't bear to be away from Ji-eun. All this time, when we were still dating and after getting engaged, if it wasn't me who went to Jeju, then it's Ji-eun who would come to Seoul.
LYR : Awww, so sweet. After all, Jeju is a great place. I love to come here again.
We talked until late at night. We talked a lot. We talked about when we were still in highschool, we talked about each other's careers, we talked about personal things, about life and so on. I can't describe how I feel right now. I feel really happy to meet my friends after not seeing them for a long time and surely this night is another beautiful memory in my life.
LJE : You all can take my car going back to the hotel. I'll see you guys around 11 tomorrow. We're going to have brunch together before you guys heading to the airport. And thank you so much for coming tonight, I really appreciate your time despite your busy schedule. I still couldn't believe that you all are here with me right now.
LYR : No, we should thank you for making this happen, Ji-eun. And please, not just one, we should do this often.
JEJ : Yes... Don't worry, we'll let you all know whenever we back in Seoul.
LJE : Good....no last minute plan okay? And please make our GC alive. I created those for us to contact each other. Oh I nearly forgot, my parents and my dongsaeng will also join us for lunch tomorrow.
LYR : That's great. I can thank them for the amazing foods tonight. Perhaps, they're sleeping already.
PBG : Okay, we makes our move now. We'll see you tomorrow Ji-eun. Guys, I'll drive.
YSH : You sure bro? I can drive us, beside I'm familiar with the road here.
PBG : Are you saying that, I'll not able to get us back to the hotel? Come on, I can always turn on the GPS.
JEJ : Yah! Enough both of you. Bo gum, please....just drive us safely. Let's go. Bye Ji-eun, Min-hyuk-ssi.
🐱I'll sit at the front.
We reached the hotel after 45 minutes drive. Bo Gum parked Ji-eun's car at her usual spot and pass the car key to the reception counter.
LYR : Which floor are you guys staying?
JEJ : We're staying on the 6th floor.
LYR : All of you?
HER: Yes!
LYR : Waaa...wait, you guys know which room I'm staying, isn't it?
🐱Of course we do. Why do you think Ji-eun give us room on the 6th floor? My room is just beside yours.
YSH : We're all in the same row bro.
🐱Oh yeah. Emm, anyone of you want to have a drinks again? We can order from room service. It's just 1 in the morning. We can wake up around 10 tomorrow.
PBG : Sure. Let's gather up in my room.
LYR : Sorry guys, I have to do some packing. But don't mind me, you can just continue.
JEJ : I'll accompany you Yoori. But, I have to go to our room first, I need a shower.
YSH : That's great babe. Okay, the three of us will gather in Bo Gum's room then. You girls will be in Yoori's room.
We spent another couple of hours with each other. Eunji and me at my rooms, the boys is at Bo Gum's room. I'm not sure, what time did we finally sleep. The next morning, we came down around 11, and we had brunch with Ji-eun and her family. When the time we checking out, I'm so shocked that Ji-eun gave me a complimentary room, for the whole week.
LYR : Ji-eun, this is too much. I mean, how can you give me complimentary room for the whole week, at least let me pay half. Hhmm?
LJE : Stop it, Yoori. Take it as a gift from me. We haven't met for so long and I'm so glad that you came to Jeju. At least, let me do this, will you?
LYR : Fine...I'll treat you to a nice restaurant if you come to Seoul anytime.
LJE : You promise? I might come soon.
LYR : I promise. Hey! Why don't we have another meeting in Seoul, before Seung Ho and Eunji flying back to Milan?
PBG : I agree. Anything, please share it on our GC.
YSH : Great!
🐱Thank you so much for your amazing hospitality Ji-eun ah, not forgetting the room that you gave us, it was fantastic.
LYR : Yess, thank you so much Ji-eun. Same goes to you aunty. Thank you for this "Ganjang-gejang" and thank you for the dinner last night. I hope we can meet again soon.
"You can come whenever you want, Yoori...I mean all of you. Our house is always open for you."
LYR : Thank you once again. Ji-eun, I think we makes our move now, thank you for everything. I'll see you in Seoul okay. Come here, give me a hug. You too, Eunji. I love you, both of you.
Before we leave to the airport, we hugged each other and says goodbye bye to Ji-eun, her family, Min-Hyuk-ssi and Seung Ho and Eunji too. We can never get enough to say thank you to Ji-eun as we were sent to the airport by hotel transport. She's been doing so much for me for the whole week. And I promise myself to make sure that I will be there for her when she come to Seoul next time. My vacation to Jeju, come to an end. To be honest, it's not enough with just a week's vacation in Jeju, time flies so fast and I think I haven't seen all the interesting places yet. I'll make sure, I will come again soon. But what makes me happy the most is that I can finally see my friends....my old friends.
A/N : Sorry for the late post. I've been so busy lately. But, I hope you like it 💜
