“I wanted to ask if you have got a girlfriend; do you have one?”

The Significance of One

 

Ri In’s POV

I walked down the stairs wearing my comfortable clothes I wear when I play sport. What I wore was a pair of shorts that were loose and a comfortable shirt. Actually, when I play sport, I can wear anything. As long as the thing doesn’t hug my legs, arms or waist then I am fine with that.

“Come on!” yelled Junsu.

He pulled me out of the house and led me to the park.

We had some goals and tackles with the ball. We were playing for an hour until I called time out. It was a bit late and I wanted to go home. I sat on the grass, lying down. He lay down next to me.

“Young master Junsu…” I said.

“Don’t call me young master Junsu, OK? Call me Junsu-shii or just Junsu,” instructed Junsu.

“Okay, Junsu-shii,” I said. He chuckled.

“I wanted to ask if you have got a girlfriend; do you have one?” I asked. I didn’t know why I asked this question but I had to.

“Yes, I do. She is in America and is coming back on Monday,” Junsu said. I felt disappointed. I wanted to cry but I couldn’t, not in front of Junsu that is. He realised I was silent so he asked me.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing it’s nothing. So, what’s your girlfriend’s name?” I asked.

“Her name is Heebon,” he said with a smile when he mentioned her name. I really felt pained this time. I got up and got the ball out of his hands.

“You be goalie and I will practice to shoot and boot, araso?” I said.

“OK,” he said and ran off to the goal.

I placed the ball in front of me. I was trying to kick a penalty kick with a great angle and trying not to make it go over the net. It’s really easy to get the ball over the net so I must concentrate. To be honest, I was actually expressing my jealousy and anger at the game, the ball and at Junsu. I know that I shouldn’t be doing this, soccer is a game of enjoyment, but I was really angry and didn’t want to cry in front Junsu. I took a few steps back and got ready to shoot. I ran up to the ball and, kicked it as hard as I could. I used the inner side of my leg to kick. The ball sailed across the field and to the right of Junsu. It was too high and he tried to catch it but all that happened is the ball sailed through his hands and right into the net! Score! It was a perfect one too. It was right at the corner. I felt so free at that time. I started to kick and kick and kick. Each time I kicked, Junsu would always miss which made me want to kick more and more.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Junsu’s POV

I kept missing the ball! But I let Ri In keep kicking. I knew there was something wrong. She seemed very ferocious. Every time I missed, she would want to kick it harder. I didn’t know what happened to her. She seemed fine a little while ago. It was late already. The sun was already going down. In a couple of minutes, it will go down completely.

“Yah! Ri In! Jang Ri In! Let’s go home. It’s late!” I yelled.

“No! Not until you block the ball!” yelled Ri In back.

“Okay, okay,” I said. She looked like she wasn’t going to give up. I saw place the ball on the ground firmly and backed off a little. She got herself ready and kicked the ball. Since she was kicking it at a further angle, the speed of the ball coming was slower. It went to my left and I dived to catch it. I caught it fair and square in my hand.

“Now are you coming home?” I asked.

“What ever…” she grumbled and we walked home. I walked behind her while struggling to keep up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow…

Ri In kept avoiding me today. I wonder why? I am not that mean. Whenever I attempt her she bows to me and says ‘Young master Junsu’ and leaves. How annoying!

Next day…

Today was exactly the same as yesterday. She kept avoiding me. Aish! Why did I need her attention anyway? It’s not like I like her! What ever!

Monday…

In the cafeteria…

“Hey! I am Park Hee Bon! Nice to meet you!” Hee Bon greeted Ri In.

Ri In’s POV

“Hi. I am Jang Ri In. Nice to meet you too,” I said. I looked at Hee Bon. She was a very pretty person indeed. She looks like the kind of person who would help an old lady across the road. I was envious of her. I really wanted to be in her shoes. Wait! Why did I want to be in her shoes?! Aish!

“Well, let’s eat!” she said and I sat down to eat my food. I was stuffing food into my mouth. Everyone looked at me with wide eyes.

“Ri In-shii, I didn’t know you like to eat this much!” Changmin said. I smiled at him and continued stuffing food into my mouth.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeonhee’s POV

I saw Ri In stuffing her face with food. I wonder why she is acting like this. It happened from the beginning of today when she first walked into the class.

*flashback*

When Ri In walked into the class, she saw a person sitting in her seat. She just limply walked towards the empty desk to the back. She was cheerful when she walked in but seeing someone in her desk, her face fell immediately. Junsu walked up to her.

“Ri In-shii, I am sorry that Hee Bon is in your seat. She wanted to and I couldn’t stop h-,” Junsu started but was cut off by Ri In.

“No, no. I understand. She is supposed to sit there. I should be the one apologising,” Ri In said. Junsu was about to add something buy the teacher came in so he had to go back to his seat.

*end of flashback*

I know that Ri In likes Junsu but I do hope she pulls herself out of it before she falls too deeply.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hee Bon’s POV

Ri In seems like a good person. She seems to like Junsu and isn’t like those or s. I think I can fully trust her to take care of Junsu when I leave…
