Step 16. Be patient.
ChangeI watch her eyes go round like saucers and I pray to all the gods I have heard of, for Ji to be right.
Let her be in love with me. God, Buddha, Allah..... whoever you are...
I look up and see that she hadn't moved an inch. Her eyes were round and was that of an 'O'. Holy . I didn't think this over did I, I should have thought of a better way to confess. Not here. Not now. Surely there would be a better place for a confession.
Then there was a ball, sailing to my face and I catch it before it hits me. "Yaaahh! Hyung! Come here!" Jiyong screamed.
I look at her and watch her close her lips and purse them together. I shouldn't have said anything... I sighed and went over to Ji.
He grabs me by the arm and drags me off towards the court, he hissed at me, "What the hell, hyung?"
"What?" Leave me alone Ji, I'm kind of feeling sad right now.
"You freaking confessed to her..." He said with his eyes wide in disbelief.
"Well you said..." I began.
"Not now! Oh man, haven't you heard of timing." He runs his hand through his hair in annoyance.
"I... well... she... she was looking at you... and I thought... well..." I didn't think much. That was the problem. All I thought about that moment was she needs to stop looking at him when I was right there.
"Hyung, she doesn't see me that way, okay?" He said, annoyance in his tone. I look back at her and she looked like she wasn't breathing. I really didn't like the way she looked paler... , she doesn't love me back, does she?
"What do I do?" There was no way to turn back. It was a headfirst dive into a situation. I can't take it back...
He scratched his head and I knew he was assessing the situation, he was always the smart one between the two of us. "Tell her, it's fine if she doesn't love you right now..."
"But it's not okay." I grumbled.
"Listen hyung, I said now not ever. And I really do think she likes you.... You must be patient, hyung!"
"But I'm not patient." I told him.
"Change. You promised her you'd change everything about you to suit her."
I looked at my feet, wondering if I could be patient. I steal a glance at her she sat down the bench again, she really did look pale... distraught. I didn't like the fact that she seemed so bothered with what I've said...
"Okay." I mumbled to Ji.

Ji lead me to her and she gave a small start as she noticed we were standing in front of her. A rush of color to her cheeks made her all pretty and telling her I'm fine i
