Beginning

My first week in Korea, Busan has been busy. I chose to live and teach here because the city is lively and welcoming. I have gone through orientation and also found a lovely apartment to live in. At orientation, i managed to make two new friends, Alice and Micky. Alice is English from England and she was teaching jn Seoul before she changed to Busan this year, which makes her familiar with the program. Micky is actually a korean boy who grew up in Australia, but would visit his grandparents in Busan most of the time. He has now decided to live with them for the year while he teaches just to keep busy as he is financially safe because of his parents business that he has to take over.

It is now a friday and we are sitted in my apartment just talking and busy on our cell phones.

"hey guys" Micky says through the silent room making us look at him.

"why don't we go out tonight, i know we are tired but a friend of mine just invited us to come clubbing at his friends club?"

"which friend is this?" i ask

"Lee Sang-in, i have not told you guys about him, but you will meet him there"

"guys i don't know, i am kind of skeptical?" i don't know why but i felt uncomfortable, maybe it is because i would be going out clubbing in a whole new country.

"i mean guys, what are the do's and dont's?"

"Ang, you are from Johannesburg so i believe that place is even more scary, just dont do anything you wouldn't do when you are at a Johannesburg party" Alice says

"the offer is really tempting though" i say smiling evily

"right so, lemme get the booze to get us pumped, yeah" Alice says practically running to poor us drinks from her bag while Micky just laughs at her foolishness.

"wait, you had that in your bag this whole time?" i ask, eyeing her suspiciously

"yes, it has been in there for a while. I just remembered about it now, what are you wearing though Ang, here drink" Alice says handing me a mixed glass of some alcohol i didn't even know she had.

"i don't know, skimpy?"

"ohh girlllll, lets go check your wardrobe" Micky says pulling me with him

"Did you bring any dresses?" he asks while rummaging through my clothes

"she has the body, so she has to have a lot of those" Alice says walking in and sitting on my bed

"what you mean, i have the body, I'm basic, bitch"

"girl have you seen your curves, ass" she says forming a pear shaped sign with her hands

"Around here people do not have curves nor a big ass like yours unless they are luckily blessed or from a surgeon, what you have right there is from the factory itself, original baby"

"ok stop hyping her, i found something" Micky says holding my white silky dress which i do not like wearing because i think is too short with some white strappy heels.

"i do not like the dress Micky its too short"

"it will look good don't worry just go shower, and you should not be worried about how short it is anyway, you are going clubbing not to church" he shouts from my bedroom

I just ignore him and get down to business. Three hours later it is 19:00 and we are on our way to the club called Taurus. It was weird when i heard it because i immediately thought of the Zodiac sign but then its whatever.

When we get there, all of us are pumped and although i do not understand the words of the music playing, it still has a vibe and so i begin dancing with my friends, Micky said that his friends were still at a family function so they would be late so for now it was just us three, suddenly they play maniac of the stray kids and i lose my mind,

"ohhhh did i tell you how much i love this song" i say jumping around my friends and swinging my hands around like a crazy person. Background of this song started when i heard Felix's voice variations on tik tok and i started listening to their music and fell in love with them, even though i cannot sing to the songs most of the times i find myself singing along the English parts and saying things i do not even understand.

At this point my head is buzzy and i feel the need to sit down

"hey Al, may we go sit down somewhere?"

"Yeah lets just wait for Micky, he went to go get us more drinks, oh here he come" she says pointing at Micky

"Mick lets go sit down, pwease" i say in my baby voice and big eyes popped out. Caution i am a big baby when i am drunk

"oh my poor baby, come on lets go, i saw an open table while walking here" he says grabbing my hands and we take our belongings and walk together with Al also holding my hand. I am actually thankful for them because i do not know them for long and i managed to go out with them without feeling scared that they will leave me behind or something.

We find a really cool spot where the music is loud enough to hear and there is less people dancing or walking around and so we chill and drink there while laughing and enjoying ourselves. I took my heels off and although it may look like i am not a classy lady, at this point i do not care because i am having the time of my life and the heels are making it hard for me to dance.

"Al i am going to the bathroom, i will be back alright"

"Do you know where it is"

"yeah, there, look." i say pointing to just ahead of us looking at the all too familiar ladies toilet sign.

"ok go then, be quick, you'll find us here"

I look to Micky to tell him I'll be back only to realize that he has a girl he is talking to, i do not even know when the girl came to our table but anyways, i begin my walk to the bathroom while stumbling and singing gibberish trying to match the music.

The feel of my bladder relaxing makes me feel great and a bit sober, which is a really great feeling that lasts for only that second. I go to wash my hands and check on my makeup and hair, i had done knotless braids before i came to Korea and they still look nice with my edges laid and my makeup on point, i feel so good looking at myself in the mirror and so with one final look i leave the room, only to bump into someone.

"oh my gosh, im sorry, i didn't expect anyone here, I'm really sorry" i say rushily so that i can walk back to my friends because i feel uncomfortable around new people.

"its ok" this man says in a Korean accent while trying to reach for my hands which i hug myself with and look up.

Remember when Tiffany Haddish said Micheal B. Jordan could make a girl pregnant just by looking at her, well i swear i became pregnant just by looking at this specimen. His pink kissable lips got me licking my lips like a pervert, his smooth and flawless skin made me jealous but crave to touch his, the hair that fell from his nicely styled head to his face made me feel like putting it back into place. He is the right height, tall, i know even in heels i will still have to look up to him, he is just flawless.

"are you done" he says,

"no, a little longer" i say still in my trance

"Ang, come on why are you taking so long" i hear Al from the hallway which takes me out of my trance and bump the guy running to Alice.

"Girl what took you so long" she says taking ny hand and leading me to our table.

"A man, a man is what delayed me, a very hot, fuckable man"

"what" Micky shouts, he is now alone i guess the girl went somewhere

"what, i did not see anybody"

"yeah i ran away when you called for me"

"you ran" she shouts loud enough while Micky just laughs at me

"Sang-in, over here" Micky suddenly shouts over the music causing me and Alice to look over.
