Foreign Plains { Miyuki x Jinri }
"Are you sure youâre alright, maâam?"Â Jinri nodded, albeit, the transient mannerism was one of demurral. Did she need help? Did she? New countries, newer cities; conjectured into the resolve of impulse. Perhaps her dearest sibling would be a resident of the neighbouring country â cognitively flawed, no less. And how such a sojourn came into existence? Life prettied her pockets, a concatenation of fortunate affairs, amongst pitiful ex-clients and students with affluent progenitors. Thus Ichinomiya became the destination (for now).
"Yes." A mumble emitted from the young girlâs lips, whence she dissipate from the conciergeâs gaze. "Iâll find my way around."I think. There her true journey was set afoot, with her back against the shabby youth hostel, and her eyes to the horizon of an unseen dimension. Jae would linger somewhere in this country, she hoped. She thought he would live well. And the revelation of his new-found character would draw the droplets of mirth to cascade down her countenance, freely. Despite the lament to begin her search, concomitant physical technicalities pervaded her, and a parched throat sought for her dire attentions. âExcuse me.â Her feeble Japanese did not escape unobserved by the passer-bys. âWould you happen to know of somewhere I can⌠ah⌠get ⌠â Whatâs the word for water again? Reminiscence failing, Jinri gesticulated wildly, digits depicting the swigging-back image of soju â but that would work, would it not? Supposedly so, the passer-by, a middle-aged balding man appropriated an amount of fluent Japanese and pointed towards the store. Yes, that seemed logical. Traipsing her way there, towards the said convenience; and, upon arrival, Jinri slipped into the store, eyes sought for a beverage - to which she did obtain and promptly bore with her to the counter. "How much is this?" She asked the other woman, gesturing haphazardly toward the bottle of green tea -- thirst had divested her cognitive aptitude, it seemed. "And... would you happen to know where I could stay a night? It's getting dark and..." Jinri trailed off, verbal regurgitation was eclipsed by desire for external ministrations, not a potential physical assault after instigation of irritation.Â
After Hours.
Of course not? It was a strange ensemble of a response to a question that was usually answered either with a saddened ânoâ or an embarrassed âyesâ. From what he can remember from the advert that she had posted on to a popular classifieds site, she was upon the second decade of her life and hence more than old enough (that is physically mature enough) to be showing an interest in the opposite sex or even the same sex â if that was her preference. The lips upon her face resemble scarlet petals plucked from a virgin rosebud and her skin would make Snow White look like a caked-face whore who roams the red-light district at midnight in search of a lighter and conversation which ends up as a business proposal. Joongki considers himself a man of impeccable taste so if he found his newest, and currently only employee, to be attractive, there was bound to be many others. Rationally, he assumes the absence of a partner to be due to absence of a confession of love. The seven year old children whom he had tasked her with teaching all showed little to no hesitation in professing their love to their permanent substitute tutor, Miss Choi, but such love is of a platonic nature and soon their emotional recklessness would be subdued by the exclusively adult fear of rejection.
âThatâs goodâ â itâs good that you donât have a boyfriend but more so itâs good that youâre not having any problems dealing with the spawns of Satan. A genteel shake of the head around the axis of his white collared neck (from business shirt â rather than his interest in the overlapping circles of BDSM) follows and is then superseded by a smile just as genuine as hers. âThereâs nothing else that I need. Youâve done enough this week. Sorry for keeping you back but itâs good for business if the parââ, if she was not careful her phone would soon find itself being launched the window of the sixth storey office as indicated by the flick of distaste that lights his eyes, âif the parents are allowed to meet whoâs taking their hard-earned money.â
Despite her apology, for the rest of the day, Joongki would now instantaneously develop feelings of hate for any bird that he happens to come across and he might even feel a lingering compulsion to run over a pigeon or two whilst in the car. But of course he wouldnât act on such vile impulse, it would be of incredible and unworthy inconvenience to have to pick feathers and guts alike out of the existing tread of his tyres. âIâll see you on Tuesday.â Because thatâs when the next business week commences. âMidday, so that we can go over the lesson plans for the week. Enjoy your weekend, Jinri. Donât spend all of that money at onceâ, his finger âshootsâ at the thick envelope in her hands, âand donât have too much fun tonight doing whatever youâre going to be doing.â The frequency with which the unanswered texts inundated her inbox now conveyed an urgency that would stir up curiosity in even the most apathetic of individuals.
(That's... good?) That was an aberrant response, however, the perplexity regarding the unusual choice of words did not reflect nor blemish the façade of dissimulation secured tightly upon her visage. She was the existing embodiment of stereotype defiance; for a female her age, the persistence and desire for a partner should be at the peak amplitude. Her mind should be consumed in a fiery blaze of despondent desideratum for romance, for the caresses of one other than her customers, but such processes of thought (usually) failed to subsist for long -- thus, almost procuring Jinri the conterminous-status of an aromantic. The mind is a disconcerting locality, and like many uncharted territories, one can easily stray from their paths into unmitigated disorientation; condemned into the world of various psychological behaviours for the duration of their lives. It was by this theory, that the Miss Jinri was able to endure the tribulations of life -- and restrain herself from a total emotional amalgamation. Perhaps, also, a apologia for her somewhat deviating fascination in the same erotic practises as her employer -- unbeknownst to herself, of course. Such hedonistic scenarios  seemed almost akin to malapropism, the very concept molten into the ranges of anathemas to all prudes alike. And, concurrently, if the woman was the true object of infantile adoration, then Joongki would be the sole inducement for many unrequited loves from the young and old (and whatever forms of age coterie to exist) alike -- ultimately, undeniably, he would fair exceptionally well in her field.
"Yes sir... see you on Tuesday," Her head dipped into the (almost) world-wide recognised gesture of acknowledgement, followed by yet again another punctilious smile -- her movements were of the same habitual conduct; whilst mere routine, and habits, were innocuous to an extent, it was too facile for life... and Jinri, at that moment, was beginning to experience social constraints. "..I won't spend all of it at once, and I hope you have a nice weekend, too." (doing whatever it is that you do...) The path between knowledge of the pair was barely traipsed upon, and it became evermore unequivocal by the blank depictions of the potential leisurely activities her employer indulged in the moments of requiescence. Temporary dismissal was eventuated, and Jinri began to take the evasive route, whilst simultaneously sliding the surface of a delinated finger across the glass touch screen. (Shit.) The message upon the most neoteric SMS was sufficient to induce a disposition of fear -- the fear of being extracted from her methodically devised enciente -- once more.Â
[ text from 'Client: Kim 4' ] ... change of plans, I'm outside. See you in a few?
(what the... no..... ) Adrenaline coursed through the jarring couloir in a inundation of panic-inducement. Her upper teeth, primarily the central, and lateral, incisors descended into flesh seemingly in the midsts of a factitious etiolation. The movemnt of Jinri's palliated eyes mimicked the primeval instinct of a creature coerced into the final resort -- flight or fight. The device wielding hand dropped beside the line of her upper thigh, "I-I'll see you..." Jinri wrenched herself from the office in something that resembled a pirouette, her imponderous hair inclined into a volitant state until the move was fully executed.
 Her endeavours in evasion and retreat seemed successful, as the backdoor mutely clicked shut behind her implying no signs of pursuit. Aphotic was a befitting word to describe the 'new' environment, the fusion of lunar effulgence and artificial ochreous lighting illuminated, before her eyes, the mildly rotund frame of 'Kim 4' leant against his prized exorbitant vehicle.
She bowed her head, "...Good evening, sir."
Enchanted || JK + JR
Present in that coffee shop once again. A generous patron for the small business that ran since before the new millennium, feasting into the wonderful scenery of the place whilst resting on the comfort it shared for every guest and coffee enthusiast. The blending of coffee beans fresh from the sacks and gradually grind for perfection. The perfume of those assorted flowers planted on each pot and boxes and fashioned just beside the building, a small garden, a farm of beauty. And last, the hospitable presence of every individual on the room, sitting with a cup of two, sometimes with books, friends or imagination. For the young observant, this place is a haven; and treasured little land. The brunette was enjoying his fresh cup of espresso, a much needed liquid to wake some senses to his exhausted entity. Beside his cup lingers a few books he borrowed on the local library, most were old literature and few about photography and fashion, along with them is the latest edition of the news paper. He had been reading those articles for about an hour now, using his time into a productive habit as he waited for a comrade who promised to meet him up. Attention was spark but a new presence. A woman entered his paradise holding an expressionless face. Eyes lingered onto her, as always and for some reason he was enchanted. Unlike the past episodes, he doesnât recall herâ none at all. But then again, his eyes feast on her beautiful image. He was intrigued, curious, amazed.
Coffee would be Jinri's favoured beverage for the perpetuity of her incarnations, the juxtaposition of acerbic bitterness, the lenitive sapour of creamy milk and gossamery dulcet of sugar was always too much of a temptation for a latitudinous abstinence -- whilst the chemical induced caffeine effects could only further instigate the pursuance. Therefore, by that ratiocination, and in that particular trice, there were no other possible choices of dispute for her attendance at the establishment. The intention was a brief visitation -- a further indulgence in an actual seat seemed highly inappropriate, after all, there was other patrons.. and individual solitude was her own infallible preference.The aroma of coffee beans, as she entered the shop, was a demulcent fragrance of its perspicuous flavour, the scent had been profusely disseminated into the furniture and pervaded the senses upon the certain arrival; barely moments after the destination was reached, the picayune sensation of being observed -- or at least being inspected -- provoked Jinri's assiduity.
Burnished sights darted to the exact direction of the origin... and a hybridisation of perplexity, stupor and consternation inflicted the woman into a fleeting dormancy. The first symptom of her return was punctuated by a single blink from widened eyes, followed by an intake of a hesitant breath in a debilitated attempt to still the erratic cadence in her chest. (It..couldn't.. possibly... ) Feature to feature, he was indistinguishable from the one in her memories, down to the sentorian gaze of his obsidian eyes to the subtle flourish of his lips... his pulchritude was as immaculate as ever... few things, if any, could administer such a laceration of her apathy... he was one of them. The desire, the need, for confrontation (of any variety) burned in crimson conflagration; the acridity of emotion, and a lingering remnant of scathing salacity scorched her throat in the lacuna of her abeyance. Regaining the exterior image of insouciance was, no doubt, labyrinthine, but she managed to some degree. (I have no other choice...) Jinri's syllogism to approach was illogical, but emotions were a perpetual incongruity that rendered one into a state of near delirium. Her footsteps taken to rupture the distance, was muted against the encompassing palaver, and felt porcine rather than the conscious choice of her usual light tread. With outstretched fingers, the pads gingerly met the line of his jaw for an instant of another schism in cranial prioritisation....only for the same hand to recoil as rationality established itself once more. "...you...where were you..?"
Hwayoung jumped when she heard a voice. Her head turned to the sound, and quickly she tried to hide her guilty pleasure. She scanned the speaker from head to toe, and the scared feeling in her chest dimmed a little as she realized it was a stranger. âWell, yes, I was trying to.â She spoke, her voice shaky as she waved her hand in the air, the cigarette stuck tightly between her fingers. âItâs not working though.â She took another puff and smiled gently at the other, waving the smoke away from the both of them.
Despite her endeavours in the obliteration of a twist to alter the path of her lips in the formation and exhibition of a smile... it was ultimately an inconceivable notion; to be the source of a fluctuation in composure was entertainment. Whilst the female's surprise -- the taste of mild consternation -- was almost tangibly perceivable, Jinri's visage rearranged itself to appear somewhat more amicable, "Don't worry about that.." -- it was in reference to the attempt to extirpate the cerement of smoke, the deadly consuetude was a congruous habit of the pair, "...have you ever heard of the theory that to remove a vice, one must replace it with another...?"Â
2/? of Choi Jinri
It was dark and cold outside. All the friends Hwayoung was meeting today had finally left. Finishing her last sip of tea, she walked to the door and slipped inside her coat. She checked her pockets carefully. Everything was still there. Quietly, although no one was around to hear, she opened the door, stepped outside and closed it just as gingerly. The young woman made her way over to the other side of the road, and hid behind a wall. Once again, she looked around her, and when no living soul was to be found, she grabbed a lighter from her pocket. âOh Hwayoung, are you really going to do this again?â She spoke to herself. It was quiet for a bit as she hesitated. âWell, no one will know. So no harm done, right?â She spoke again before taking a cigarette out of her pocket and lighting it.
Silence bloomed like a deadly blossom, unfolding each of its coloured petals until...."Are you talking to yourself?" The expression upon Jinri's comportment appeared amused, eyes illuminated with a scintillation striating across the glassy exterior. Granted, her choice of seating  -- on the ground, with her upper back and shoulders moulded into the algific veneer of the wall -- was not exemplary in the social regard -- the simulacrum between her image and that of a contumacious adolescent was uncanny. The logics behind her present location, however, was that it had seemed to be a place of sufficient solitude as she indulged herself in the toxic effluvium of the cigarette lodged between her digits. Another inhale... exhale... and the line of sight diverged as Jinri's gaze finally meandered from the woman to the indefatigable ashen spirals curling from the end of the paper cylinder, "You're trying to quit? That's not the right way to go about it, you know. "
once youâre in the spotlight, everyone will be watching so put on your fakest smile, baby.
After Hours.
It would be of great surprise to many if anyone were to ever discover that Joongki is a university dropout. Not only would it be surprising, it could very possibly be detrimental to his current career. He did not quit medical school because he could not bear the weight of constant pressure or because he could not overcome the workload that threatened to put him and his classmates into an early grave. His academic transcript, if requested, would reveal that he has hovered at the top of every class that he has ever been enrolled in. But despite all of his intelligence, it took him a full six years to realise that he was not on the path to a happy life. He still isnât but at least now he can, both literally and temporally, afford more freedom to search for it. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the only days that tutoring centre is open for business. Why? Because he doesnât wish to work anymore than that. The average person works five days and takes two off for personal leisure if not personal affairs. Such a great imbalance between work and play is accepted as reality by many but conformity has never been Joongkiâs strong suit nor does the colour of said suit complement the hue of his skin.
Pale is his epidermis which is the mark of the many years he had spent haunting a number of libraries whilst other children played soccer on a field without grass, or risked spinal injuries in the game of having another person vault onto your back known as âmaldupakiâ. Also pale is Jinriâs complexion â it was the first thing he noticed when she first entered his office for her job interview. The formal process was over as soon as she had produced her university ID and proof of her present enrolment. Joongki knows firsthand of the hurdles that need to be surmounted in order be admitted into such a âpopularâ degree (medicine and law are unfortunately still the only routes to success for many South Korean households) so there was no need to waste valuable time, that could be spent increasing the weekâs revenue, questioning her academic abilities.
The audible click and clack of the pointed heels of her shoes against his timber floors foreshadows her imminent arrival. He would scold her for wearing such impractical uniform to work if her stocking-covered legs did not look so good in them. He would also scold her for bringing âbirdsâ into the office if it were not for the fact that she was presently staying back after hours to tidy after children whom have not been taught any better. âYour boyfriend?â He decides to make small talk with the interjection of an assumption to show some vague interest in her personal life. To repeat, he knows very little about her and the best way to get answers will always be to ask questions â then further question the answers provided. This is a valuable life lesson that he has imparted to his students though a few of them have misused the advice. âHere.â The sealed envelope is held out to the female in the door. âYouâve worked hard this week.â And youâve taken a monumental weight off of my mind and shoulders. âHave there been any problems so far?â
(Your boyfriend?) His light inquiry immediately initiated a certain paranoia ... (Does he know....how and what I do besides this? Does he---) ... but through an aeon of prevaricating to a Dr and Mrs Choi, the woman had managed to ameliorate an acuity in deceit... or, at least, ambiguity; thus providing the present copacetic visual paramnesia. There was no ubiquitous remnant of the umbral taint upon her milky complexion, none that defied her surmise discomfort with the unpropitious quiescence of her alter-self being exposed, as she simply shook her head. The second sequence of chirps prompted a dubious smile that accompanied the prospoponoeia of denial to linger for a scintillation too long, "Of course not," (Of course not!!) Her lexical counter was, despite the preceding mental 'adversity', fairly even in terms of modulation; there was little deviation from her  quotidian articulation.The woman's minuscule smile remained palpable whilst both hands accepted the substantial envelope from her employer's larger ones, the parcel was, then, transposed to the right (and predisposed) appendage. And, at the exigent behest of punctilious Korean societal etiquette, Jinri lowered her head and torso in standardised, somewhat obsequious, concurrence, "Thank you,"Â
The antecedent vertical posture was spontaneously assumed after a short respite of any forms of ineffectual verbal expression. (Problems... apart from the fact that I shall be dilatory in attending to my client...what if they get bored of waiting?) A rapid pertinent assumption was made -- 'problems' was more likely uttered in referral to all entities related to her extant employment locality. "No problems at all, sir," The woman refrained from the utilisation of other synonyms, before another 'the lady doth protest too much' milieu was refractorily enacted. "I was just finishing up... is there anything else you need, before I leave, sir...?" With serenity etched in innocent depictions across her visage, the composition of her emotive elucidation, as portrayed by her facial aspects, was done in slight excess, resulting in the ever-so-suggestible mien of discomposure. And, the minuscule discomposure lead to the probability of Joongki noticing the lapse of her much preferred physical manifestation of nonchalance and imperturbability. The third set of tweets within the metaphorical five minute precinct marked the heightened pace of her heart, no doubt a reflex due to the bodily perspicacity that it was under a certain threat (In this scenario, discernment of threat is easy; should Joongki discover her past and present forms of debauchery, Jinri's more desired method of procuring funds would be fast eliminated -- customary propriety in such a case dictated so for the population.)
Despite her indisposition to address the blatant impatience of the sender of the texts, it was appropriate, in that tableau, to apologise before she deemed her departure for the day. Another pertinent bow. Her gaze sought for eye contact after the emollient gesticulation, lingering for a moment as, yet again, the distraction of his age-defying (he was, after all, almost a decade older than she), mendaciously youthful countenance induced a temporary microscopic cease of all activities... (why couldn't her clients be more attractive?) "Ah...I apologise for the text alerts, Joongki-ssi.... I.. won't forget to put my phone on silent next time,"
After Hours.
A five-year-old does not respond well to being called cum that wouldâve served a greater purpose if he had been swallowed by his whore of a mother. Actually, no one responds well to such an insult but the child, who could not possibly understand the malice of which his words have been soaked in, bawls simply because Joongki had raised his voice a few decibels and because his eyes now resembled daggers. This isnât going to work. It is Joongkiâs ambition to cater to the supplementary education needs of every student across the metropolitan area of Seoul but he had not foreseen himself to be so incapable of handling â no â tolerating anyone under the age of twelve. The unprovoked tears, the nose picking (and subsequent booger eating), the constant need for bathroom breaks, and questions like âIs the moon really made out of cheese?â It is all too much for Joongki, and as much as it hurts his ego to admit so, he needs assistance.
And assistance he has found in the form of a medical student whom most likely needs money to pay off her outstanding university debt. Hired on an almost desperate whim, he knows very little about her. Seemingly, she knows the required content like the back of her hand, and she gets along with the younger half of the children well (at least better than he). It also doesnât hurt that sheâs easy on the eyes, and that she doesnât mind doubling as the tutoring centreâs secretary on an increasingly frequent occasion. âJinriâ he summons her presence, from the solitude of his office, through a wall backed by leather bound reference books which are less often used for reference and more often for aesthetics, ambience and amazement.
All scheduled classes have ended for both the day and the week, and he can hear her loitering as she has yet to be formally dismissed to enjoy the weekend. His thumb passes through a rather thick wad of green bills as he counts them a second time using the voice in his head. 40 ⌠45 ⌠50. The bundle is tapped against the surface of his table before it is slotted into a pristine envelope for the sake of modesty and convenience. It might seem to be almost excessive an amount for a week of part-time work but honestly the sum pales in comparison to the full fees that he collects that then go forward into paying himself, the utility bills, for supplies, and for cleaning and maintenance of the workspace.
It was a fortunate occurrence that a certain 'Mr Song Joongki' had both acknowledged and responded to her very overtly, perfunctory composed advertisement (Tutor for hire! Medical student with a good grasp of biology and chemistry! Will work at any hours!) ; her individual efforts of isolating tutees was comparatively inefficient; whilst the life of soliciting money as a concupiscent whore was typically rewarding in the economical aspect (the sex business is undoubtedly profitable), it was, by no means, a consistent pecuniary deluge for the aiding of 'daily existence' -- since the ultimate decision rested upon the shoulders of her clientèle. Assisting the tutoring of those in the pre-pubescent age was almost elementary for the young woman -- she'd had to substitute as the multifarious teacher numerous times, in the godforsaken hell-abyss of the private school she'd attended, a lifetime ago, negotiating with youngsters was undeniably easy -- 'bribe'/reward with confectionery. To Jinri, there was something quite covetable about the innocence, and the ignorance, that they inadvertently possessed, children had their whole lives ahead of them with a plethora of occupations to choose from. Never had she received such a luxury---.Â
---Jinri's cranial functions regarding that of thought reached a metaphorical infarction as the graphite pencil was released from the negligent clasp of her slim fingers, and skidded across the polished wooden flooring, reaching an claudicant halt after a few horizontal rotations. A lone languid blink followed the unexpected incident before Jinri rose from the cushioned seating in search of the liberated cylinder. And several prominent clicks of her heels contorted the nearly erroneous, irenic lull of the previously vociferous (induced by the prior young majority) classroom whilst she crossed the short distance, to, finally, bend at the waist to retrieve the writing utensil in a surprisingly graceful sweep of her right arm. A double-syllable word (her name) in the articulation of Joongki-ssi's distinct timbre became the second sound to penetrate the resumption of superficial laconism. One single beat (much too long in terms of somatic reflex) blossomed before the female responded, "Coming!".... "Sir!" was added after a very fleeting reconsideration, typical social protocol applied, even if working hours were veritably over -- Joongki was still her elder in respect of the sheer years of tangible actuality, and entity, of the corporeal plains.
The assistant discarded the pencil indiscriminately into one of the four iridescent stationery holders situated upon the desk, whilst several more replications of the alerting noise of her footwear signalled her arrival at the door frame of Joongki's prestigious appearing office. The electronic device, the phone in the pocket of her more aesthetic than functional jacket, signalled a received text message with a distinct succession of bird tweets -- if she hazarded a compendious glance at the glass display, it would provide self-confirmation that the sender was no other than her scheduled client (Who else could it be?). But, as she was in the presence of someone above her in social echelon (as she had to so often remind herself-- his countenance/appearance was rather deceiving), Jinri resisted the clement impulse, and benevolently shook her head in a display of disregard. "You called, sir?"

If ever he was given a name by his mother, I would begin by giving it to you - but few facts are known about the Foolâs origins, and fewer yet are known about his being. His exact heritage and age remains in question, however he can be traced back to the eighteenth century as the Kingâs Fool. Whether it was here that he picked up his love of riddles, or whether it was this that earned him the particular title, also remains to be seen. It can be revealed here that he has a telepathic connection to all living things. This bond is strongest with animals, with a favour to those he knows well, with abilities stretching as far as a full mind-meld. On the other hand, he scarcely scrapes the ice of mankind, only finding the very taste of the emotions within their mind. The only names that he responds to at current are Thomas Fitzloved, Tom, Fitz, or simply, The Fool.
