Mommy when you were little what was your greatest wish?
Umm... Umm okay, I don't know. She replied
My little Jendeukie (another surname for Jennie) the ever greatest wish I always wanted was to have a happy life and stay with you, your father, and your brothers. Mother said
Oh Mom it is not funny. Jennie cried
No, I am not lying it is true and someday you will be happy too. Mother explained
Are you sure? The eyes of Jennie were glittery.
Yes, I am one hundred percent sure. You know happiness is not something easy to find. It is something that is merited. Hey look, tomorrow I and your father have a surprise for you all.
And what is it? She asked
You will find it the next day. If I tell you it will not be a surprise anymore. Mother said
...
The Next day.
Jennie: Hello Mom
Mother of Jennie: Anianghaseyo (Hello) Jennie.
Jennie: Hello Dad
Father of Jennie: Hi Jennie
Sister of Jennie: eommawa appa(Mom and Dad) why did you gathered everyone today?
Mother of Jennie: Okay.
The reason why we gathered all of you is that next week we are going to Auckland in New Zealand. Said the mother of Jennie with pride. Father said
You will study there and learn how to speak English. mother continued
You will also make new friends. Aren't you excited?
Jennie and her brothers were all dumbfounded. They did not believed their ears. Jennie was only eight years old and she did not think she will learn English or travel to a foreign country.
I don't know if it is true. I know I am dreaming. She said
Jendeukie you are too sweet. But you are not dreaming little sister. Her sister told her
Big sis look. I am happy and at the same time unhappy. I made so many friends here in Chongdam deong and then the next day we are going to Zealand. It is breaking my heart. Jennie explained
All this came to a sort of sudden. She said
Don't be too dull. Everything will go on in the right way. Trust me OK? Her sis told her
OK. Humm... Will everything really go right?
Yes! You said you trust in me. Believe and you will feel it.
