The Neighborhood Part II – Jinho and Mrs. Kim

Michael walked past the house and continued walking, and after a while, he came across another place and saw a teenage girl sitting on the front porch, smoking a cigarette. He ignored her, walked past the house, and went ahead. He saw many people in the neighborhood, like an elderly couple playing with their grandchildren; some were walking their dogs, and others were watering the plants and trimming the trees.

He saw an old lady struggling to carry some grocery bags and went up to her and asked, "Excuse me, do you need help?"

"That's very nice of you, but that's not necessary. I can do it myself." The old lady declined politely.

"I insist. Please, let me help. You will not even have to move an inch. Trust me.", Michael assured.

The old lady nodded and smiled and said, "Alright. But I can't let you go inside. If my granddaughter, who is in college, sees you, she will jump you."

"Oh! Well, that's... not a bad thing." Michael laughed, and the old lady chuckled.

"I'm serious. She is a bit aggressive. And she will not take 'no' for an answer. So, just stand still. She will come and take the bags from you." The old lady warned.

"Okay, then.", Michael said and stood still.

He waited for a few seconds, and then, the front door opened, and a girl walked out, went down the stairs, and went up to him. She had short, black hair, dark brown eyes, light-colored skin and was a little shorter than him.

"Hello. Are you the one who helped Grandma?" She asked, crossed her arms, and leaned forward.

"Yeah. Umm... I'm Michael. And, you are...?", He introduced himself and asked, and he couldn't help but notice her cleavage and big boobs.

"Katherine. But people call me Kate. Nice to meet you." She said and smiled, showing her pearl-white teeth.

"Nice to meet you too, Kate. Can you, uhh, take these bags? I would like to go home now. My legs are kinda hurting.", Michael said and lied to avoid the awkward situation.

"Of course. Thank you for your help." She thanked him and took the bags from him.

"No problem. Bye. I hope we'll see each other again." He waved his hand, turned around, and walked away.

"Bye, " Kate said, watching him as he walked away.

After he left, the old lady asked, "Was that the guy you told me about?"

"Yes. And he was very handsome and a gentleman, too. A perfect guy. Too bad I don't know him. But, he did help you. He is a good person. A very good one.", Kate said.

"He is a sweet boy. It's a shame that he didn't want to stay. Oh, well. It can't be helped." The old lady said, walked back into the house, and closed the door.

Michael walked down the street and spotted a tall guy collecting mail from the mailbox and looking at the envelopes. He recognized him, eagerly walked over to him, and poked him.

"Hm?" The guy turned around, and upon seeing Michael, he smiled widely and said, "Michael Jal Jinaeyo?"

"Oh!" Michael replied with a cheeky smile, "Kon'nichiwa, Jinho!"

Jinho was about to hug Michael when he stopped, and his smile disappeared. He stared at Michael and said, "Bruh! How often have I told you I'm Korean, not Japanese?"

"Hahaha!" Michael laughed and replied, "I know, man. I do it to tease you."

"Look!" He pointed at Jinho's face and said, "I love the face you make. It's absolutely hilarious."

Seeing Michael laugh, Jinho tried to control himself, but, in the end, he began laughing, and both of them were laughing and making fun of each other.

"Man, I missed you.", Jinho said after hugging him.

"Me too. What are you doing here? I thought you would be in school today. Y'know, since you're in the basketball starter team and all that jazz. What are you doing, man?" Michael asked.

"The coach gave us a week off to rest and relax. I'm just checking the mail, and then I'm going to nap."

"Ah. That's nice." Michael nodded and smiled.

Jinho looked around and whispered, "Dude! I just remembered. Something amazing happened at school, and you won't believe it."

"Really? What happened?" Michael asked and leaned closer.

"The t—"

"Jinho!" A voice called out.

Jinho froze and looked at the source of the voice. He gulped and smiled nervously and said, "Hey, Mom. What's up?"

A beautiful Korean woman left the house and asked, "Did you finish taking the mail?"

"Umm... No. Not yet, Mom. I'm just talking to Michael. I'll finish it now. Haha." Jinho laughed, turned around, and collected the rest of the mail.

"Oh, Michael! How are you?" She asked and turned to him and smiled.

"Mrs. Kim! You look as beautiful as always. And I'm fine. Thank you. How are you?" Michael greeted and smiled.

"Haha. You are a flatterer. I'm fine. And, how are you, dear?" She asked and hugged him.

"I'm alright, Mrs. Kim. Thank you for asking.", Michael replied and returned the hug.

"So, how's your mother doing?" Mrs. Kim asked and pulled away from the hug.

"Mom's doing fine. She's in the office, working. You know how hard-working she is.", Michael explained.

"Good. Glad to hear that. So," Mrs. Kim had a concerned expression as she asked, "What happened yesterday? We saw an ambulance outside your house, and a police car was parked in front of it. Is everything okay?"

"Yes, Mrs. Kim. Everything is fine. There was an accident. But don't worry. Nobody was hurt. It was a minor accident. We're all good.", Michael assured her.

"Thank goodness. When Jinho saw it, he got distraught. We were about to go to your house and ask, but you guys left before we could. It's a good thing that nothing happened. So, are you sure everything is okay? Is there something that's bothering you?" Mrs. Kim asked, a bit concerned.

"No, Mrs. Kim. I just fell from the stairs, and Mom panicked a little and called an ambulance. ", Michael explained and laughed a bit.

"You fell? How did that happen?" She asked.

"I was running to answer the phone, and then, I tripped on a rug and fell down the stairs.", Michael explained and scratched his head.

He thought, 'No way in hell, I'm going to say the truth that I had surgery on my cock. If they know about it and word-of-mouth about it spreads, by the time I return to school, everybody and their Mom would have known about it. They would make fake rumors about it, and somebody would definitely say that I'm impotent or that the doctor had to cut my cock off or some other stupid shit like that.'
