Encounter

The air was filled with noises from the people at the Incheon international airport and a sudden feeling of the past came flashing back like it was yesterday when Sarah first arrived in soeul all happy and excited but left due to the pains and suffering that it brought especially from the one she once love. she couldn't believe that even after five years, she would come back to the very same country where she vowed never to step foot in.

(sigh)'well here we are', Sarah said as she gave a faint smile to her daughter Ri ya, who also gave a bright smile.

They finally got a taxi and went off. as they passed by through the streets memories of the past came flashing back to Sarah.

*********************************

Five years ago, Sarah lee just arrived in soeul, she was so excited to study there and also meet up with her childhood friends. Sarah was an orphan, her mother was American while her father was Korean. she was ten years old when her father died and moved with her mother back to the U.S but her mother later died of stroke when she was twenty years old, after that she had to rely on herself and work to get through school before deciding to come back to Korea to further her studies.

'Hey Sarah' she turned and saw her childhood best friend Choi song young. they both gave a big hug to each other, 'how have you been?, I haven't seen you for ages' song young said with a big smile, 'am good and you what about uncle shin and hyun jun?', 'there are all fine, you look good by the way', 'thanks you too'. they both got a taxi and went off. (while in the car),' and sorry about your mom, I was at camp when I heard the news' song young said with sympathy, sarah replied,'its alright, she was a fighter even she couldn't defeat it '. they both let out a sigh, 'ok enough with the sad moment tell me about the university am so excited', as song young was about to speak a red flashy car bumped to them, both cars stop, the taxi driver came out the confront the red car driver, the taxi driver started yelling at the driver to come out from the car and settle the damage but to no avail, Sarah was getting so she steped out of the car and hit the car widow 'get out now, look at what you've done, hey come out now or else I ....' suddenly the door opened and a tall and fair figure came out, he had sharp and bright eyes, a pointed nose, a dering look, he was basically perfect. 'or else what's he said with an evil smirk on his face. song young was still sitting in the car and instantly recognize him, ' OH MY GOD, it's... I better stop Sarah before she does something' she ran towards Sarah and told her to forget it and just let it be but Sarah has always been a person who stands up for what is right and never back down from a fight. 'i'll make sure you pay for it, who do you think you are or just because you have a car doesn't mean you own the road, there are other people using it and this man over here (pointing at the taxi driver) is older than you so apologize to him now', that boy gave a faint smile and said 'for a girl you talk too much and I can't stand people like you, why do I need to apologize? you're car bumped into mine and I think you're the one who should pay but looking at you(he looked at her from up down) I don't think you can afford some proper clothes much less an expensive car like mine. but if you can't afford it, I can...

(slowly moving towards her, trying to touch her face) think of another way for you to pay'

Sarah could not tolerate it any longer, so she gave him a hard punch in the face, song young couldn't help but scream 'oh my...Sarah NOOOOO' she tried pulling Sarah away but Sarah resisted, 'you just thank God am in a good mood if not I would have given you two to three more punches to teach you a lesson (she then grabed song young's hand) let's go'. they went into the car and went off. the boy was still in shock, no one has ever humiliated him like that in his entire life. 'we'll see again and I promise you that I will get back at you for this just wait and see girl'. he then drove off in hest.
