Los Angeles
Sebastian's place
Inside the bedroom
Squeezing her cheek, Petra sighed, "Its alright Jin, you've already done more than enough for me today. Go home and rest."
"No Aunt, not until you finish your meal." Shoving a fork of pasta into her mouth, "That's more like it."
Pushing the strand of pasta hanging behind her mouth, Petra smiled and patted her head, "You are such a great cook, I never knew koreans could make english meals."
"Aunt, is that a tease or what?" She inquired with a deadpan expression.
"Come on Jin, of course not am being serious."
Feeding her with a glass of orange juice, Jin-joo chuckled, "It shouldn't look like a surprise to you. The world is changing everything and new things are happening."
"You're right, new things are happening." She sighed in dejection.
Giving her a suspicious glare, "Aunt, don't tell me you're thinking about your past or Aunt Lorena."
Petra vigorously nodded with a weak smile, "No dear, I'm not thinking about them, I'm just so worried about Grayson and what he might be passing through right now."
"What do you mean Aunt? Are you falling in love with the same man whom abandoned you for over twenty-three years?"
"I have to think about him because I am human and I have conscience Jin-joo." Taking a deep breath, she added, "I'm not gonna blame him for everything he did to me. I'm pissed off about it but–"
"Aunt please don't, you saw the scene aunt Lorena created today, all because of these sarcastic things. I won't advise you to think about him, I understand you're softhearted but think about what your son and daughter will do when they find out about it." Jin-joo explained.
Nodding her head in agreement, "Yes Jin you're right. If Sebastian and Nelly finds out about my feelings towards their father, they're gonna go wild on me. They might also promise to never talk to me for the rest of their lives and I don't want such things to happen. I–"
Patting her shoulder, Jin-joo sighed, "Breath, inhale and exhale, come on, do it."
After taking several deep breaths, Petra smiled and cupped jin-joo's cheeks, "Such a beautiful little woman with round face and chubby cheeks."
Caressing her hands which were still on her cheeks, Jin-joo smiled, "You're beautiful too Aunt Petra and I guess your kids would also be as beautiful as you are."
"Of course, you need to see my daughter Nelly, she is average in height as you and my son Sebastian, he is so handsome, brawly and tall."
"Hmm, my elder brother Dong-Hyun and my younger brother Kang-dae are also handsome men too." Taking her phone out of her bag, she showed a picture of them to her, "You see, they are handsome."
Widening her eyes and mouth, Petra slowly caressed the screen and gasped, "They're truly handsome as you said Jin-joo. I wished I had gotten married to a Korea man in the first place."
"You would have, if only you stayed a few years in my country." She chuckled.
"Seriously, if Nelly had seen them, she would have drool just as I am right now."
"Oh my God, Aunt you're so funny, I thought you earlier said your daughter is engaged."
Slowly nodding her head without taking her eyes off the screen, "Yeah she is engaged to one of Sebastian's friends."
"Hmm, I bet that guy would be handsome too."
Petra vigorously shook her head with confidence, "Of course Calvin Willoughby is super handsome and rich just like Sebastian and his friends."
"It surely proves that your son is the only one not engaged yet, is it?"
Helplessly shaking her head, Petra sighed, "That boy is something else. He recently completed twenty-eight and yet he's still single. Sebastian is not easygoing but I wish–" Holding jin-joo's face in her hands, she smiled, "I wish he could meet a woman just like you."
"You mean Korean woman?" When she nodded her head, Jin-joo laughed, "Aunt, don't you think what you're wishing for is too much?"
"Hell no its not, what mother would set her eyes on a beautiful woman like you and allowed you slide away." She frowned.
