Exploring the Male Anatomy 1
Finally, the day has come. The day I finally get to move out of this house and live a more normal life. I have wanted to go through university like a normal student, with normal friends to hang out with, and this is the day I finally get to start that life. I’m about to move into a dorm of what I heard, eight other girls. That, I think is a great start. I really hope we could all share different ideas on the hypothesis I have created the past few months. I hope we could all study together and excel together. Oh, I’m so excited, I can’t breathe.
I stood alone in the lobby, holding my luggage with sweaty hands. I drove myself over, declaring the start of my independence. Mother had cried for quite a while as Father gave me some final instructions. I’ll miss both of them, but I couldn’t wait to get out of the house.
I called the number that was given to me by Father; I think he said this was the dorm mother’s number. I was answered by a cheerful woman.
“Hi! Are you the new girl? I’ll come right out.”
Wow, I didn’t even get to say hi.
About five seconds later, I saw a woman with glasses smiling gleefully at me. She was wearing what I would say… tacky clothes: a shirt with white and blue horizontal stripes paired with a floral print skirt. Before I even got to internalize what she was really wearing, she dragged me in the building, taking my luggage from me. I was only left with my box of books that I tried hard to not drop. We went into the elevator and she pressed the button for the fourth floor. Hmm… I guess that’s where my dorm room is.
“So, why did you decide to move in here?” She asked me with bright eyes gleaming behind her black, full-rimmed glasses.
“Ne, I, uhm, wanted to become independent from my parents who just wanted me to take over our family hospital,” I answered honestly.
She laughed at my answer and hit my shoulders, with an obviously sarcastic tone, she said, “Hahahaha! You’re funny. I’m sure your parents will understand your decision on not taking over your ‘family hospital’ right away and let you study for yourself.”
“But… I’m serious!”
“Oh, we’re here!”
She ignored my remark and went out of the elevator with my luggage; I just sighed and quietly followed her. Huh, I guess my reason doesn’t really matter. We walked through a lot of different hallways with so many turns. Wow, I never noticed that this building was huge. Hmm, I guess I’ll have to get used to this. We stopped in front of a door with the numbers 4339 on it. The dorm mother knocked really loud and again, turned to me.
“Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Kim Minji, your dorm mother. I was told that your name was Seo Joohyun. Well, Joo Hyun, if anything goes wrong in your dorm room, just call me. I’m sure you already know my number. I’ll leave you here now; one of the girls should open the door in a minute. Bye! And welcome to our family!” She turned her heels and left me with a smile. Our dorm mother seems very energetic; she reminds me of my nanny.
I already like it here.
While I was busy looking at the way the Minji-ssi was walking… or rather skipping… or bouncing (?)… back out the hallway, I heard the door open and was welcomed with another cheerful looking girl beaming at me. She had wavy brown hair in pigtails, with a very nice smile that compliments her eyes. She was wearing make-up, and her entire outfit was pink: a pink tank top and hot pants, plus a pair of fluffy pink bunny slippers.
“Hi! You must be Joohyun, I’m Hwang Miyoung, but please call me Tiffany. Come in, and I’ll introduce you to everyone,” she cheerfully exclaimed, taking my luggage before I even got to.
I followed her in and I was welcomed by a huge pile of shoes in the door steps. The collection of shoes astounded me, as they were in many different styles and colors. I awkwardly took my loafers off and put on the indoor slippers, keeping my socks on. At the end of the hallway, I saw a bunch of girls all sitting down around the pink, yes… PINK living room.
Pink floor-length curtains hung by the windows. The bay seats had a bunch of throw pillows in several shades of pink. Two couches faced each other, and yes, they were both in pink. Even the carpet was in a dark shade of pink. It started to feel like I walked into Barbie’s playhouse.
All of them, including Tiffany were wearing bright colored clothes, ones I can’t believe someone would wear. All of them are wearing short shorts with different colours, they also had checkered, stripes, and… flowery tops? If they didn’t have a print, it was designed in a very sexy style.
Wow, I can’t believe I was put in with them.
Their hairstyles were also done very atrociously. It was the first time I’ve seen “huge” hair, if I can call them that. Tons of hairspray must have been used to accomplish that hairstyle on just one girl. All of them also reeks the smell of different and strong perfumes. Ugh, this is giving me a headache.
They seem very close though. Some of them even had their heads on another one of the girl’s lap and was comfortably watching the TV. One girl was sprawled on the carpet, while another laid her head on her back.
All their heads turned to us when they noticed our presence.
“Girls, this is our new dorm mate, Seohyun!”
Seohyun?! “Uhm, it’s Joohyun, not Seohyun,” I corrected.
“I know, but Joohyun is too plain, we’ll all call you Seohyun now, alright?” Tiffany responded with an eye smile. I simply nodded at her suggestion. The girls all stood up from their positions and surround us. They all said “hi” at the same time, welcoming smiles on their faces. I guess it’s about time that I actually do some proper introduction.
“Hi Seohyun,” said a short girl as she extended her hand to me. “I’m Taeyeon, the oldest girl here. I’m 23, and I’m graduating soon. What are you taking?”
“I’m studying pre-med~”
“You study? Wow, I already like you,” another girl interrupted me. She pointed to her chest, where Yoona was printed in sparkling letters.
I blinked at her for a while, surprised at her interruption.
“How old are you?” Taeyeon asked.
“I’m twenty-one years old. I got in through the baccalaureate program and I’m taking general subjects along with majors such as Zoology, Ecology, Genetics, Human Anatomy and Physiology. I love Genetics, but I’m also very interested in Anatomy…”
I noticed some of them giving uneasy glances to each other.
“Oh! Speaking of anatomy, we love anatomy too. We watch a live stream every day. Woot! Muscles in motion, oh yeah!” The girl in red checkered top interrupted, but was hit by the girl next to her followed by an awkward laugh.
I cleared my throat and continued, “Anyway, it’s nice meeting you all and I hope we can all get along.”
I bowed and smiled to the girls and they all just smiled back. After a few seconds of awkward silence, another short girl with a pixie haircut broke the silence, “Alright Joo Hyun, your room mate will be Hyoyeon here. She’ll show you your room. We’ll be across the hallway if you need us. We just have… some business to attend to…”
They all scurried out of the living room through the hallway straight ahead. I was left with a busty girl who had her hair dyed blonde wearing almost the same style as everyone else, “Hi, I’m Hyoyeon… so you’re twenty-one huh, you’re our maknae then! Come, I’ll take your luggage and I’ll show you our room.”
She went in the same hallway as everyone did and I followed. She stopped at the first door we found. She gestured for me to follow, and then she turned the lights on.
More pink. Ugh, I guess I have to get used to this colour then. The room is pretty big and had two beds. There are also two vanity mirrors and four closets, hmm… not as bad as I thought. Maybe, I can really live through this. They’re all nice anyway…
“Well maknae, I’ll go with the girls in the room across the hallway, if you need us, just knock and one of us will be there, okay?” Hyoyeon said leaving the room without waiting for an answer. I shrugged and put my box on the floor. I realized that I need a bookshelf, maybe I should just buy one later.
I sat at one of the vanity mirrors, apparently emptied prior to my arrival. The surface still had outlines of the bottom of bottles. I look in the mirror and stare at my long straight hair plainly decorated by a wide black hairband, high-collared crisp white shirt tucked into my pleated brown skirt and. Behind me is a wall of pink.
I really have to get used to my new surroundings.
I started unpacking my clothes and books when I found my iPod dock. Let’s put on some music, so I can calm myself down a bit. I took my iPod and plugged it on the dock. Beethoven’s Spring Sonata. Ah, perfect, now, I can clean in peace.
~*~*~
I finished all my packing and started to relax on my bed to read. But when I was about to open my book, I heard noise from the room across the hallway. It sounded like cheering and catcalls to me. I wonder what business they are tending to. I shrugged and once again ignored it.
More cheering and squealing ensued.
Ugh, this is annoying! I need to read in peace! Calm Joohyun, calm down… everything will be fine. Just read the book and listen to beautiful music…
Mozart’s Requiem in D comes in, ah, a good one to relax with…
“Oh yeah, you lift those weights, wooh!”
“Fifty-one! Fifty~~two! Wow, how many push-ups can he do?!”
“Kyaah! Look at them sweat! So sexay~” Someone yells.
Gah, how am I supposed to read with all these noise? I closed my book and placed it on my nightstand. I give up; I got out of bed and went to the living room. These girls, really, how can they all have pink everywhere? And those shoes, can’t they arrange them a bit? Whatever they’re cheering about in that room, I’m sure it’s nothing about ‘business.’
I sat on the couch and decided to watch some TV. Maybe I could find something interesting here…
As soon as I flicked the TV on, I turn up the volume, trying to cover up the noise coming from the end of the hallway. I was immediately welcomed by a random shirtless guy having a live photo shoot.
Psh, definitely something these girls would watch. I unconsciously rolled my eyes and decided to just change the channel. As I was going to push the button, the camera zoomed in close to the guy. I stopped and stared…
“Those pectorals are huge!” I blurted out. I looked around to see if anyone had heard me. Hearing the continuous giggles from the hallway, I looked back at the TV screen.
Man, now THAT would be a good specimen for human anatomy study. The man’s chiseled body showed well-developed muscles. His biceps looked like they’d rip off a really good shirtsleeve. His trapezius muscles were so toned, he’d look like a turtle if they got any more developed. His pectorals moved on their own accord, while his rectus abdominis were outlined so well, he looked like a Greek god.
I suddenly consciously shake myself out of my reverie. This was not the kind of show I should be filling my head with.
After a few channel changes, I found a documentary to watch. Woah, it’s about gene mutations! Awesome! I stayed in the living room watching TV for almost an hour, watching different documentaries about nucleotides and genomics. I finally turned the TV off realizing the girls are finally coming out of the room one by one.
They all greeted me after coming out and as usual, I just smiled.
“Seohyun-ah, you’re our maknae right? Woah, I’m out of the maknae zone then.” the girl named Yoona said, heading towards the fridge.
“Ah, neh. It’s really nice to have eight unnies to live with me. Though I haven’t learned all of your names yet,” I honestly replied. They’d just left me right after I was showed into my room.
“Oh! Sorry we forgot about that! Well, as before, I’m Yoona, and you’ve met Taeyeon and Tiffany, that’s Sooyoung, Yuri, Jessica, Sunny, and Hyoyeon, your roommate,” Yoona pointed at each one of the girls. My brain matched each face with the name and stored them safely.
“Ah, thank you unnie,” I said with a bow, as Mother had always told me.
“Yeah, don’t worry, there’s so many of us so it’s normal to not know our names right away. We’ll constantly remind you,” Tiffany said with one of those smiles yet again.
“By the way, we’ll be making our dinner, want to help?” the short unnie, named Taeyeon, invited.
“Unnie, I don’t really know how to cook. Will you teach me?”
“Sure, come here. It’s not just you who don’t know how to cook here. They all started out like that too, good thing I’m here,” Taeyeon said, flicking her hair as if bragging about her cooking skills.
I find myself actually excited to work in the kitchen.
~*~*~
It has been a week since I’ve moved into the new dorm. Through the whole week, it has been fine with the girls. Though they can have really… unpleasant habits sometimes, they were nice unnies that did their best in taking care of me.
There’s just one thing I’m really curious about.
Every time I come home from class, I always saw them just coming out of the same room at the end of the hall every single day. I never really bothered to look at what they’re doing, as I was busy myself.
Today, I decided to leave the library early and just study here at home. But all the girls are nowhere to be found. I think they’re in that room again…
I placed my books in my room and went across the hallway. Maybe I’ll take a look and see what they actually do there every day. It must be something fun.
As I opened the door, I found all the girls clustered inside. Some were standing on the beds, others were sitting on the arms of the easy chairs, while others were kneeling in front of the window. All of them were giggling while looking out the window.
Eh? What the heck are they doing?!
They all turned to look at me when they heard the door shut.
“Maknae! You’re home early! Come here, join us! This is fun!” Yuri unnie said, turning back to look at the window. I walked forward to have a closer look, and when the girls noticed me…
“Girls, girls, we should all let maknae have the front row, it’s her first time anyway,” Sooyoung unnie suggested. The other girls let me go straight forward right by the window. I reluctantly looked around, but didn’t notice anything.
“Eh, I don’t see anything unnie,” I said. It’s just another building across our dorm! What’s there to see?
“Maknae-ah, take a closer look at the first window to the right from the one directly across ours,” Sunny unnie said as she pushed me towards the side of the window.
“Here, use these,” Jessica unnie said, giving me a set of binoculars. I looked at her, confused. She gestured towards the binoculars and the window. I shrugged and finally looked through the binoculars, setting it towards the direction Sooyoung unnie said. There wasn’t really much after a few seconds but…
I can’t believe what I’m just seeing. I widened my eyes and wondered… what the heck did I just get myself into?!
