Way To Heart 2

The lady was above 40, but anyone would doubt her age, so did Jangmi. Her style looked so elegantly pleasing. Even her wears marked branded too and not affordable. Besides, her face was the definition of beauty and kindness. The lady's smile seemed satisfying. It looked somehow so familiar to Jangmi and she wondered why. But soon that smile faded quickly. Jangmi saw right before her eyes that a man crossed by her, snatched the lady's purse and ran away to Jangmi's opposite as the minutes couldn't get the chance to pass. In next, Jangmi screamed at the snatcher. Leaving all her bags and belongings at a side, she rushed after him with all of her energy.

"YAAA! STOP RIGHT THERE!"

The lady was dumbstruck to realize how her purse was being stolen suddenly. She only glared at Jangmi, running after a man.

Meanwhile, Jangmi pulled the man's shirt, made him lie on the ground and arrested his neck by her arms. She also shouted , "Give the purse back!!"

The man struggled between her arms. So she twisted them more.

"H-e-r-e" The man hardly could say. Jangmi grabbed the purse with no more delay. Likewise, the man got out of her hand and ran away somewhere out of the street. The lady came running towards Jangmi along with being fascinated by the young girl's bravery. And Jangmi was panting because she did fight with an unknown Korean man for an unknown Korean lady. The lady started saying,  "Oh my dear, Are you okayy?? Gwenchana?? Omo omo!"

She was a typical korean woman, Jangmi realized. But her beauty is the first priority.

"Omoni! I got your purse back!!" Jangmi chuckled. She was covered in dust, still laughing. Jangmi stopped soon as her eyes suddenly landed on her luggage which was missing. While the lady continued, "Aww sweetheart, you have done me such a great help. Thank you so much! Please let me-"  Jangmi ignored everything, got up in uttered grief and walked slowly to her invisible trunk. She never expected that she could be this much shocked ever in her life.

"GODDAMN THOSE BASTARDS!!"

She continued, "THEY TOOK AWAY MY EVERYTHING! OH GOD! MY PASSPORT! MY CASH!!"

The lady walked past and stood beside Jangmi. All she could do was hearing Jangmi's distresses. Jangmi broke on the ground tearing apart. She started shading tears, "How will I live?! Where is the Police!? Where will I go now?! Also I'm new here in this stupid country!..." She got overwhelmed with emotions as her mother's face suddenly bulged out. The lady felt strongly guilty. She thought for a while. Then she was calm and said, "Don't worry, daughter. We will find them. " She smiled kind.

Yet Jangmi was crying and it got louder instead. But she could manage to ask, "How will we find them?"

"Tell me first, where are you going to stay?" The lady already got aware of the situation. She was wise indeed.

Jangmi replied, "I don't know.." Her voice cracked in between.

"Come and live with me till you find your things, sweetheart." The lady offered quickly.

But Jangmi had to be confused about the proposal because she was a complete stranger above all.

"No, Omoni," Jangmi said. "How Can I live with you?"

"I know what you are scared about. Okay, so do you have any money with you then?" Jangmi shook head.

"Listen, I can give you some money but it won't be enough for a living. And you can see yourself, that one over there is my house. Come stay with my family and I will ask my son to help you."

It was a really tiring day when Jangmi finally breathe out, seeing some hope in front of her eyes. But she lost everything. Even her cash, how would she live then? These questions made her more uneasy whenever she was thinking to find any way out, rather than taking help from a stranger. But it got too late already. Now, she must admit defeat to her situation.

Jangmi wiped her tears as she gave a final thought about it. "Please, tell your son to do me this favour so I can stay with you."

The lady smiled in relief, hearing Jangmi and her decision. She again helped Jangmi to get up and talk. Lastly the lady said to her while walking straight to their house with her,"It's all happened to you because of me, dear. And I'm really sorry as well as thankful for everything..."

Jangmi didn't know what to say, she just swallowed it all in silence. She felt nothing but horrible.
