I have always been fascinated with laundromat and how I wished we have such here in the Philippines. comments will be highly appreciated. Ciao!
Laundromat
It was already two in the morning but she’s still awake. It’s
been days since that shoot for Muhan girls but she still can’t believe what
she’s done. She tried pushing it at the back of her mind but it keeps on coming
back. Tired of pretending to catch a wink she decided to just clean her house.
Dressed in just a tank top and her pajamas, Hyejung started
with tidying up her living room. She vacuumed the carpet, arranged the magazines
and pillows on the sofa and even tried to rearrange her furniture. After that
she went to her kitchen and check. When she saw that everything’s in order and
nothing for her to do, she head back to her room and tried going to sleep. It’s
already been thirty minutes since she went back to bed but still sleep won’t
come. The scene keeps on replaying on her mind.
“Shillang, are you doing well?”
Frustrated she sat up and berated herself.
“Yah, Hyejung-ah, why so stupid. Aissh!” and then she stood
up and paced back and forth of her room. “You could have done the mission
without being so obvious! Yah!!! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!”
She remembered how everyone was surprised with her action
but they pretended to just ignore it til after the shoot finished. Song Eunnie and
Boram pulled her on the dressing room after and talked to her.
“Yah, Hyejung-ah, are you nuts? What happened in there?”
Eunnie asked
“Hyejunga-ah, you could have used other terms, you know
people will associate that term with him. Are you creating a scandal?” Boram
followed.
“I know, I know. But I spoke in Japanese. Not everyone will
understand it.” She lamely reasoned out.
“And you think that viewers are stupid? Hyejung, just the
term Shillang is enough to make everyone curious. You should have known that.” Eunnie asked back.
“Aish, I know I made a mess but I can’t take it back. PD
will not allow us to retake” Hyejung replied.
“Well just be ready if news will come out. I can’t believe
you can be impulsive even after you’ve been together for three years.” Boram
added.
“I’ll just keep my fingers crossed.” She replied with a
sigh.
“Were just concerned for you, Hyejung-ah.” Boram and Eunnie
explained.
She nodded in understanding and just hugged her friends.
So now at almost three in the morning, she’s restless,
wondering what people’s reaction would be once the episode is shown tomorrow.
Just when she was pacing her room, she noticed the clothes’ hamper almost full.
Since she knew that she won’t be able to sleep anyway, she picked it up and
decided to just go to the Laundromat. She just hurriedly grabbed a hooded
jacket to top her racer back. The pajama bottom is decent enough to pass as
pants. She pulled her hair into a bun, put on her specs, grabbed a magazine and
locked all the doors before heading out.
The 24hrs public Laundromat is only a block away from her
place. She came to knew of it when her coordi got sick and needed some clothes
urgently. She went here and washed her clothes and after that going here became
a stress reliever for her. She decided to just walk with clothes packed on a
big back pack. The road is deserted and so was the Laundromat when she came
in. Hyejung went to the washing
machines; she separated the colored clothes and the white ones and placed them
on each tub. She took another one for the jeans and denim jackets. She then put quarters, started each machine,
then grabbed a nearby stool so she can read as she waits for it to finish.
With the whirling sound of the machine, Hyejung became too
engrossed with her reading so when the door of the Laundromat opened, she
jumped to her feet. She felt a tinge of fear when she saw a man by the door,
looking around as if trying to find someone. Then the man directly looked at
her and she took a step back when she saw him approaching. He was nearly in
front of her when he removed the hoodie and glasses and Hyejung can’t help but
blurted out in surprise.
“Shillang! What are you doing here?”
“I should be the one asking you that, Buin. What are you
doing here? “He replied as he took a good look at her. Her hair’s a bit messy,
her specs almost falling off her nose, and he knew that she’s wearing what she
was supposed to be wearing when she’s sleeping but she look damn beautiful.
“I can’t sleep, Shillang. I already cleaned the house; I’ve
got nothing to do so I head here. But how’d you know I’d be here? ” She replied
a bit whiny.
“I saw your car in your house and when I checked your room
the hamper’s missing. I put the clues together. Besides how many times have you
told me you love washing clothes in this Laundromat?” he countered with a grin.
She closed the small distance between her and Hyunjoong and
wrapped her arms on his waist and said. “God, I miss you, Shillang.”
Hyunjoong smiled and pulled her closer to him. He dropped a
quick kiss on her lips before he uttered.
“I miss you more.” and wrapped his arms around her once
again.
Hyejung reveled at his scent and the warmth of his embrace.
She truly missed this man now that he’s always out of the country. And to
compensate the time that they’re not together, Hyunjoong would always come over
her place once he got a chance. She was enjoying the moment, when all of a
sudden she heard her tummy grumbled.
“Yah, Buin, is that your tummy’s way of welcoming me?”
Hyunjoong teased.
“My last meal was before I went home. I had early dinner
with Boram.” She replied with a blush.
“I see, just stay here. I’ll get something in the car.” He
quipped and run out of the Laundromat.
After about five minutes, Hyunjoong came back with a small box
on his hand. He then placed it on top of a machine and motioned Hyejung to come
closer. She moved towards him and smiled when she saw the cake.
“Your favorite. Green tea ice cream cake. Eat now, Buin,”
Hyunjoong ordered. He tried to look for another chair but when he found none, he
gently pulls up Hyejung, took the chair from her and gently placed her on his
lap.
“Is this okay?” Hyunjoong asked.
Hyejung just nodded and
continue munching on the cake. He just let her eat, every now and then she’d
feed him and he would just gladly take it. The cake was finished in no time.
Hyejung stood up to throw the wrappings and check the machines. Still a few
minutes more before it’s all done.She
was about to go back to where Hyunjoong was when he gave her a back hug.
“Care to tell me what’s bothering you? Why would you wash
your clothes in this ungodly hour, Buin.” Hyunjoong whispered in her ears.
Hyejung gently turned to face him. She rests her head on his
shoulder and then confessed.
“I think I made a mistake, Shillang.” When she heard
Hyunjoong said okay, she continued.
“Remember the mission that you asked me to do?
“What? You didn’t do it? Why?” Hyunjoong interrupted.
“I did. It’s just that, I let it slipped.”Hyejung replied
and buried her face on his chest.
Hyunjoong gently pushed her from his chest and lifted her up
to sit on one of the washing machine. Hyejung shrieked but Hyunjoong just
laughed at her.
“Now, Buin, explain.” He ordered as he stared at her
blushing face.
“You told me to ask how you’ve been. I did just that but I
accidentally called out your name. I mean technically not your name but I said
shillang.”
“Ahhh...So you’re afraid that people will assume that it’s
me you’re calling out?” he asked and Hyejung just nodded. “And you’re worried
about me and what our management will tell you?”
“I already talked to manager Oppa and he said its okay. I
should just be more careful next time. It’s you I’m worried about. This might
create rumor and might not be good for your upcoming drama.”
Hyunjoong wrapped his arms on her waist. With her sitting on
top of the machine, she’s almost of the same height with Hyunjoong, his face
just inches away from her.
“Buin, its okay, don’t fret too much. Even if you didn’t
slip on that word there are still those who believe that were together. People
can think whatever they want to think. We’re okay, that’s what matters. “
“Calling you Shillang is like second nature. It’s just like
breathing. I don’t have to think, it just comes out naturally. Just like loving
you.” She explained.
“You know I feel the same way right. I miss you so bad. How
I wish I can stay beside you always but we both knew we can’t. So we just have
to take advantage of every minute we’re together, okay?” he replied with a
smile. Hyejung nodded and dropped a kiss on his lips. Hyunjoong pulled her
closer though she’s still perched on the washing machine.
“When did you arrive, Shillang?” she asked while running his
hands on Hyunjoong’s hair.
“Almost two hours ago. I went to your place straight from the airport. I
was expecting to find you asleep in your bed. Then I would slowly crawl in,
shower you with kisses and sleep next to you.
So imagine my disappointment when an empty house greeted me after being
gone for a week.” Hyunjoong whined.
“I’m sorry baby. What can I do to make it up to you?” Hyejung
asked.
“Kiss me.” he simply replied.
Hyejung willingly obliged. She wrapped her arms around
Hyunjoong’s neck and wrapped her dangling legs on his hips. Hyunjoong deepen
the kiss and the atmosphere turned hot. She can feel his hands on her back and
his kisses demanding,
“Shillang, someone might walk in on us. “ Hyejung tried
pushing him away as they come up for air.
“It’s three in the morning. No one’s awake except us.”
Hyunjoong replied in hoarse voice and pulled her for another kiss. Hyejung
melts into his kisses and before they knew it both were already caught in the
fire of passion. Hyunjoong’s hands were on the hem of her jacket, trying to
take it off, when the shrill sound from the washing machines startled them.
Hyejung fell off from the machine, making her body plastered directly unto
Hyunjoong.
“Arghhh, Buin, forget
about those clothes. Go shopping tomorrow. Let’s just head home now.” He
uttered with gritted teeth.
Hyejung pushed him gently before running her hand on her unruly
hair. She took deep breaths before replying to the still flustered boyfriend.
“Shillang, it will only take fifteen minutes tops for me to get
all those clothes in the machine, ten minutes if you decide to help me. I
promise to let you have your way once were home.” She replied and moved towards
the machine.
“Make it five minutes, Buin. “ Hyunjoong quipped and made a
mad dash towards her and help pull out the clothes in all three tubs.
And just as Hyunjoong predicted, after five minutes, he was
dragging a laughing Hyejung out of the Laundromat.
