Keith Cho pt 2 (not as exciting)

So basically after I punched him, he ran after me and made me go back to the restaurant. He told me he wasn't leaving, but he was recommended to go to Afghanistan. I made him promise he wouldn't.

Then we went back to his apartment and hung out with his mom. Keith is so cute around his mother,,, he can't act cool around me because I've met his mother and it's adorable. 


But we basically just hung out for an entire week. We went out to eat, we went to karaoke (we totally rock at it, I might add). He took me on a picnic. He let me take pictures!! When he came to visit me in France, he never wanted me to take his picture and I got really made at him... so now he lets me capture his precious face in photos :D :D 

...I basically skipped class all week >__< But, I mean, can you blame me?! He surprised me out of the blue, and I wasn't about to ditch him for stupid classes (sorry mom :p ) 

With all the tension going on between North and South Korea, Keith hasn't been able to call much which has been really worrying me.  I miss him and I want him to be safe. But he called me this morning telling me he was fine and there was nothing to worry about. I was so relieved to hear his voice. I had been freaking out all week. But during the call he told me he might be able to get a break once a month. So I might be able to see him again in May!!!!! If everything goes according to plan and we don't get blown up that it......

That was basically our week. Not that exciting for you guys, I know. But I loved it and I can't wait to see him again. I miss him so much.


Also, I died my hair,,, I post some pics soon. 

I got class soon, plus I'm trying to decide if I should leave the country or not. I don't really feel uncomfortable with the whole Korea situation, but maybe just to be safe, I might go to Hong Kong for a few days. 

Nothing has been decided though. Keith seemed very okay with the idea of me leaving the country,, which bothers me.... but no other Korean I know seems to be freaking out. So I won't either. 

I'll post again soon. Gotta run

Another Keith Cho Text PT 1

SO…. 

Sunday March 31… I broke up with Keith. 

He called me early morning, no idea why. But I just started crying because I missed him so much. And for some damn reason my brain was like “Hey, Maggie, waiting hurts you, so just break up with the boy”

So… I did. I broke up with him. I cried and cried and then I hung up on him. He called me back a few hours later begging me to rethink. He told me he’d start calling more and he’d put more effort into our long distance. He said he’d start talking to me and telling me what he thinks. Which has always been a problem for us. He’s afraid to look weak to me, so he never expresses his feelings. But that just pushes me away. I told him that…

I don’t know how I did it, I have no idea how I managed to, but I hung up on him. I said “Keith, I have to go, this is too hard for me” and I hung up.

Lord only knows how…..

But I went on with my day, regretting it and then trying to convince myself that it was the best thing. 

Waiting hurts. I spend every night staring at my phone hoping he’ll call. I’ll send him a dozen emails a day expressing how much I love and miss him and never receive a reply. And I can’t get mad at him for it because he’s in the army, he’s busy. He doesn’t have time to think about me or call me. I understand that„, he calls me when he can. I have to accept that and not torture him for it. 

I figured breaking up with him would be easier for both of us.


Anyways, Monday morning April 1, I was in a cafe with my friend telling her about the break up and then I get a text message from Keith’s mom saying that she wants to meet tonight- she has a gift for me from Keith. 

I freaked out. It was 11am, she said to meet at 7h20 pm. I was having panic attacks allllll day. What could the gift be?? What could Keith possibly ask his mother to buy for me??

I decided that I should write a letter to her explaining why I broke up with him. I wasn’t going to be able to express my feelings otherwise because I don’t speak Korean. So I got my tutor to translate a short letter which I copied onto some pretty paper. I put it in my bag and I went to wait for her…….

I was panicking. I didn’t know what to say to her or what she was going to give me. 

I was in the midst of a small attack when I hear:

“Maggie” 

I look up and who the hell is standing in front of me but Keith Cho himself. I was hoping it would be him, but I didn’t wan to get my hopes up because there was no way he could’ve gotten a break on such short notice. 

I literally almost fainted. 


I just jumped into his arms and hugged him for a good 5 minutes before he asked me to take him to a restaurant. 

Wanna know what my goddamn boyfriend did to me then?!

We sat at the restaurant and I asked him

“Keith, how did you get this break? Why are you here?”

“I had to tell you something Maggie…….I’ve decided to go to Afghanistan.”

My heart exploded. I got so angry at him..

“Why???”

He said “Well, they recommended that I go a few days ago, but I turned them down because I knew you wouldn’t like it… but considering the circumstances now, I’ve decided to go”

I started bawling my eyes out at this point. I kept telling him how stupid he was, he should know by know that our break ups last a month at most. We always get back together.

“When do you leave?” I asked.

“At the end of the week, I’ll be back in December”

I start bawling even harder.
He sees that I’m distraught and he stands up and grabs my arm and asks me to come outside. I refuse. He asks again… so I let him lead me out of the restaurant.







“April fools, Maggie”


I punched him and walked away.



I’ll post PT 2 with pictures later, I have class now~~
