Editors Note
First off, yes it is strange that a short story (a very short story) has an editor's note, but where else would Cathy be able to get across what she's trying to do? This story is written in Konglish. If you read it excactly as it's written it will make more sense (more sense, but not that much more). Below she's translated it into regular English, then for shits and giggles, put it all into pidgeon Korean/English for those who are super bored and can read Korean!!!

Cathy sits. She's very very bored. She is so smart!! She has a cell phone! She'll give Alex a call.
"Yes, who is it?" Alex asks.
"Hello and lots of wellbeing for you in the future!! It's Cathy."
"Yeah, yeah. What's up?"
"Alex, are you busy?" Cathy says.
"No, no. Just watching On Style," Alex replies.
"Oh shit. Have I missed anything interesting?" Cathy says as she picks up the remote.
"I'm watching "The Biggest Loser".* There's so much fat!! I love watching the fat!"
"Gross," Cathy sighs, "Alex, you're a sick puppy."
"I know. But it's very fascinating! I can't help it!!"
