2분이 2시간처럼 길게 느껴졌다. 지하철역을 부리나케 나와
극장으로 뛰었다. 황급히 뛰다가 마주오던 아가씨랑 정면으로
부딪쳤다. 죄송하다고 몇 번을 사과한 뒤 잽싸게
달리기 시작했다. 오늘따라 거리에 사람은 왜 이리 많은지.
날씨는 후덥지근하고 끈끈했다. 극장 앞에 줄이 길게
늘어서있었다.
The 2 minutes felt like 2 hours! I hurried out of the station
and ran towards the theater. I crashed into an oncoming lady.
I apologized again and again, and broke into a
run. Well, today would not have been complete without so many
people on the street! The crowds added to the absurdity of it
all. It was disgustingly hot and humid, as usual. I finally
got to the theater and saw a never-ending line of people.
방학때라 그런지 거의가 학생이었다. 저만치 매표소옆에서 민수가
시계를 들여다 보며 날 보면 죽여버리겠다는 듯이 입술을 깨물고
있는 것이 보였다. 한숨이 나왔다. 또 잔소리 꽤나 듣게 생겼다.
다음부턴 약속시간에 늦지 않겠다고 손이 발이 되게 빌었다.
거짓말이라면 벼락을 맞을 거라고 해도 믿질 않았다. 2회는 벌써
시작해서 들여보내주질 않았다. 영화도 못보고… 아 짜증난다.
다음 부턴 계획을 철저히 세워야지… 자자.
Most of those in line looked like students enjoying their
vacation. Further up the road, I could see Minsu in front of
the ticket box looking at her watch impatiently and biting
her lips as if to swear she would kill me. I sighed. I
definitely knew what was about to come my way. Jill wouldn't
stop yelling and grumbling. I promised her not to be late
again and begged for mercy, like a dog. I said God would
strike me down if I was lying, but she wouldn't believe me.
The second showing of the movie had already started and we
were denied admission. I had a real hell of a day. Plan ahead
John. Good night.
