My Sassy Girl Chapter 1

My Sassy Girl by Kim Ho-sik [English CH.1]

CHAPTER 1


So while I'm waiting, I noticed that there was a girl next to me, completely wasted. She wasn't exactly 'celebrity-pretty' but still unique and attractive. She was one of those girls who looked good in yellow t-shirt and jeans. Looked like she was about 24.. or 25...

Maybe it's because she's drunk, but her eyes were almost closed, unfocused, and sometimes gagged. "[gagging noise]"
If she wasn't so hammered, she would be really cool.

Then the train came. It was late... so there weren't so many people inside the train. She and I took the same train... of course, since we didn't know each other, we were on the opposite doors.

As soon as she got on the train, she leaned on a pole. But while a normal person leans against their backs, she was leaning against her stomach, and was waving back and forth precariously.

Her drunken behavior was pretty cute, so I kept watching... In front of her (the chair right next to the pole) a bald man was sitting down... He was reading the newspaper with an utmost concentration. Right on top of his head, she was going back and forth!

No one around her was paying attention to her... I was only watching her too.. But suddenly, she acted strangely. She was shivering for a moment then,

[sound of throwing up]

Yes, it's true... Suddenly, she... on the bald guy's head.... While this was going on, I was the only one watching.

But when the sound of throwing up came around, everyone on the car turned around to look at her... then at the man... and everyone started to roll on the floor laughing.

On top of his bald head were noodles coming down like hairs... a red noodle no less... must have been from the snail dish... then to the shoulder... to the stomach... the chunks and liquids and ...

That man... for 10 seconds he looked as if he didn't understand what had happened, then he wiped his head with the newspaper he was reading. He was so awestruck he couldn't say anything... poor guy!... But... the real fiasco started from there.

After she threw up, she looked at me, eyes barely open, and before she fell down she said..

"Sweetie... [throws up] sweetie... [throws up]"

When she called me sweetie... everyone on the car started looking at me.

"Wha... wait... Miss, who are you? What do you mean 'sweetie'?"

I tried to deny it... but it was too late... everyone was looking at me with a vicious look.

^v^ (a woman next to me who was still laughing)

@.@ (a girl standing by the next door)

-.& (a man who just woke up)

O.O (a girl who just had her eyelids done... sunglasses at this hour?)

^___^ (A student who looked like he was my age)

T.T (This is me...)

Some guy was trying to hit me with his newspaper... some woman tells me 'what the hell are you doing?' Yes... Suddenly, I became the boyfriend of the drunk girl.

The bald man stopped wiping himself off and called me...

"What do you think you're doing? Come here!!!"

'He's going to kill me!' I was terrified... and slowly, approached him.

"Hurry up and take care of this mess. How can you just sit by while your girlfriend is drunk like that? Are you out of your mind?"

"Yes, sir. I'm sorry, sir.. T.T."

I didn't have any tissues... I don't even have any hankerchiefs... So I had to take my t-shirt off... my sister bought me that... and started to wipe his clothes.

When things were kinda back to the way it should be... my girlfriend (?) started to worry me. I looked and she was knocked out spread eagle.

I picked her up (actually, I dragged her by her feet)... and sat her down on a chair.. everyone avoided me... damn it...

Next stop was Bupyung... I have to get off.. But what about this girl? I can't just leave her here... the people in the cart kept staring at me. I tried to wake her up, but she just won't budge.

So, without a choice, I carried her and went off at Bupyung... she looked pretty light, but when I got out of the station, I was covered in sweat.

What should I do?... I'm not a bad guy; I don't want to carry around a drunken girl... especially when she's a complete stranger...
My chance??? Yeah, I'm sure it's a chance... wait, you're telling me to just take her?? Having no other options, I looked for a local motel.

"Ma'am, I need a room."
"Oh dear... she's completely wasted."
"Yes ma'am... can I have a room?... Oh, and do you have a medicine that wakes you up?"

So I went into a motel room with her...

She was very skilled... she threw up so much, but her clothes didn't have anything on... so I didn't have to take anything off, I just dumped her off on the bed and... I thought "Why the hell am I here?".. damn it...

I looked at the mirror and I was covered in sweat... I looked like a crazy person..

"Well, since I'm at a motel.. might as well take a shower."

I took a very long shower... a shower after sweating so much... it feels good. I came out afterwards, but she was snoring already... she's impossible...

But I'm not that kind of person.. so I just wrote a memo: "Miss, contact me later." and left my cell phone number.

Do you think she called? If you're curious... I have so many memories with her (most of them hurting me...) Yep... she's one brave girl... She called me next day...
