I sat down on the bed... waiting for myself to fall asleep.
Everybody was already walking in the deep sleep.. so it was my time to watch Misaeng..episode 2.
However... I felt nauseous while I was watching TV.
I realised..that something was wrong.
I tried to wake mom up to ask for a digestive medicine... but there wasn't any at home.
She instead..gave me plum drinks to help to digest..but it didn't really work as I still felt nauseous.. I wanted to stop this. I decided to vomit although I had known that the process would be hard. I put in my finger in my tongue to vomit and the amounts that came out were hugee. Vomitted off all but still I didn't feel clear.. After sitting a while watching TV.. I decided to go to vomit again. Vomitted a little and fell asleep. It was like 4am when a sudden shock woke me up. At first.. I thought I was burping.. but actually.. those that were in my mouth weren't gas but solid... sorry for being too detailed. I knew the vomit came up so I rushed to the toilet and spat off all. I stuck my finger in to vomit more and I finally felt much clearer. I forced myself to sleep again. and woke up when it was like 7:30 am. I was supposed to leave home when it was 9, so I could reach Jun's hair shop by 11.
Mom cooked me a porridge and as I was having them.. I didn't feel like I was consuming them.. Like... it still left my stomach feel empty. I couldn't take a cold water to cool down my stomach that was filled with the hot porridge. Decided to buy a digestive drink at the convenience store in the subway and I left home after washing my hair.
Reached the nearest MRT station to the shop and Jun was out there to wait for me. He seemed same as the last time I had met him. Meeting him now in Korea.. has become rarer when we came to Korea. He was busy on his own way with his family.. and I was busy on my own too.. playing football and working..
He kind of gave me the hug being pleasured we met after so long. We went in to the shop and... the shop was gorgeous.. It was really the most gorgeous shop I had ever gone to. I suddenly began to feel sorry to mom and the family for enjoying such luxuries... although it was all for free. They even had locker room to put in my stuff and had aprons to change. Me being a country man.. I didn't even know how to wear it on and whether should I take my tshirts and sweaters out. I didn't know so I just took off all my clothes and just wear the apron. As I opened the door Jun came in and the designer who was behind the door saw myself naked and kind of laughed.. I quickly wore back my T-shirt and left the locker room. They did a hair wash for me and brought me to a table for consultation with the designer that Jun's mom introduced me. Jun's mom had blonde hair and she had that posture of an owner.
I took out all the photos that I had downloaded day before.. those hairs that I wanted to have. All the Lee Jong Suk's photo compilations. However.. he told me that my fringe was too short to try his hair style as the fringe would go up the forehead. I showed another photo which wasn't Lee Jongsuk and he told me that could be okay for my hair. He brought out all the hair jargons and explained how my hair was going to be done. It was called what... soft..dandy two block..volume perm cut. Damn long. Lucky I remembered. Also.. he took out the book that had all the colors of the hair. Jun's mom wanted to dye my hair too! I was kind of excited and the designer suggested I do a blonde. But I didn't really want to have blonde hair kind. I would prefer to have a black hair..or a black hair that has a slight color. I chose Purple! He told me that if I was inside... the light wouldn't show the purple colors but if I was outside.. my hair will be shown as slightly purple. After like 30mins of discussions.. we went on to start the surgery!!
Firstly. he began cutting my hair before perming. He cutting my hair only.. was already perfect. I seemed great. He cut in the so called teenager's favourite choice these days: soft two block cut. Then.. he gave me a perm. Along cutting.. Jun was beside me doing his hair too. His hair was blonde and a bit permed but he wanted to straighten it and make it red. It was such great that his mom owned a barber shop. He could do his hair whenever he wants like for free.
My designer who sticked to me all day was humorous. He joked all day and I was able to laugh and have my hair under no pressure. The hair that I was getting cost about 300 SGD bucks... Whoa... That's the same as my living allowance for a month in Singapore. Instead.. I was told that I will do some photoshoot as model for the hairshop's blog. I was more than happy to.
After washing my hair off after perming... Seeing myself on the mirror.. It wasn't like the picture I had brought as my hair was too short.. but I was totally satisfied. I was real happy to see myself on the mirror. .. such awesome..
He taught me all the techniques to dry my hair for my hair was too straight..and how to use essence and wax. He styled my hair as he was going to take photo of it.
This was just after he styling my hair and I changed to my home clothes.. and got out to the terrace to take the photos. I sat down at the bench doing all my posture. All the lonelines... all the deep thought and meditation postures..
I thanked his mom and dad a lot. I guess Jun had told his family a lot about me. They all knew me and like they all grabbed my hand and treated me like their son. Getting so much treat.. I didn't know what else I can do... Only thing I could do was to smile and thank them.
Left the shop with Jun..like an Idol.
He had that red hair and I had this Korean actor hair.
I was dope cool and he was dope shit.
We thought of places to go where the place was crowded so we can show off our hairs.
We got down to Konkuk University station as I heard many of my colleagues at work go there to eat and all. However..us..being Singaporeans.. we didn't know where to go.. so I called Eun Sun to ask where to eat. She suggested all type of foods and Jun picked one out of all and she instructed us the direction. It was Western food restaurant.
Had a dinner here and we went out to spend sometime playing game. We moved to the Lan shop just beside. Played 2 hours of FIFA online and it was them fun playing with him as usual. He wasn't as good as me but could follow up to my instructions.
We moved apart when it was 8. We actually wanted to go to the Single's bar that Jun had found out the other time..but I didn't want to.. At least not for today. I was kind of curious of what that is but... not toady.. since I have work tomorrow. Being alone myself on the way home.. I felt tired... yet began to feel.. the day has come to tomorrow. ... Where I meet ... my boss again... and back to work. It kind of scared me as the idea of getting back worried me.. but I thought... I should act normal... and be bright and remember the 3 Ks. And also.. do remember that my first priority is work work work. and second would be the dealing with relations with other people. I shouldn't worry about interacting with other people for now. Maybe the thought of having such good nunas like Hye Ji and Un Young made me this idea but.. still whatever it is... my first and the very first priority should be it.
On the way home in the train... other than the thought of going to work. Family came in to my heart.. Family waiting for me at home... The so contrast between such gorgeous luxurious shop in Gangnam and my house in Suwon... I am not saying that I feel bad to stay here but that sorry to get such luxurious treatment in Gangnam... when my mom had never spent such money for her hair. When I reached home... mom smiled and told me that I looked much better.. much much better. Later a while.. as I was alone using com in here...mom was doing her household and told me.. live a gorgeous life like that throughout... I told her what's the use if I can't let mom enjoy such first.. she denied...
I love my family.. I should be nicer... and I guess.. being at work and all I guess.. I'm beginning to treasure my family like... how those NS men do.
Love you parents...and sister...
Goodnight..
