Dara's POV

"Huh? You're going to school? But today is Saturday." Mom said.

I nodded. "I'm going to practice. Next week is our Sports Festival." I said. "Ah Dad, do you still have your soccer ball?" I asked him.

"Yes Ssantokki, it's still in the attic." he said. Dad used to play soccer when he was young.

"Thanks Dad!" I smiled then run to the attic. "Found it." I said to myself.

"Mom, Dad. I'll go ahead." I said.

"Ssantokki, wait. Bring this food. You might get hungry." Mom said.

"Thanks Mom!" I smile then waved at them.

Upon my arrival at school's soccer field, I immediately start to practice. I'll just have to kick and pass the ball, Bom said. But it's really hard! It's really not that easy, it always slips on my feet. I keep on rolling, kicking the ball and when I felt that I'm already tired, I lay myself on the ground. I close my eyes. I need to relax then suddenly, Jiyong's face popped up in my mind. What?! Then I felt my heart, it's beating so fast. My face burned. What is happening? 

I shook my head. Maybe I'm hungry. When I'm eating, I heard a small bark. Omo! A dog! I look around then I saw Gaho with Jiyong! My eyes widened. Why is he here? 

"I knew it." he said 

"Eh?" I am confused. 

He smiled then seat beside me. "When I woke up today, I got a feeling that you will be here." 

My heart, it's beating so fast again. I just bow my head.

"You are practing?" he asked

I nodded. "I don't want to burden anyone so I practice today." 

"Ah I see. Oh by the way, Gaho is with me." he said.

I just waved to Gaho "Annyeong Gaho" 

He laugh. "Why don't you carry him?"

"No! I'll just see him from here." I said.

He laugh again. "So, how's your practice?"

I sigh "I still can't do it perfectly. I keep on missing the ball."

"That's fine. You're not really a player. Just relax. Don't rush. Come, let's play." he suddenly said.

"Huh? No. No. You'll be tired. I'll just do it alone." 

"No. We will play. Come, get up" he handed his hand to me. I reluctantly place my hand to him. It's so soft. 

Then he made a distance between us, the ball is with me "Pass the ball to me" he said

Inhale. Exhale. Relax. Then I kick it. Then it reach him "You did it!" he said. "See? I told you, don't rush." 

I nodded. We keep doing that. Passing and kicking the ball to each other. While Gaho is playing on his own.

After we finished, we let ourselves laying on the grass. It's really tiring. 

"Jiyong, thank you." I said suddenly. We are facing the clouds. 

"For what?" he asked.

"For everything. These past days, I am really happy. In the class, they already talking to me. You really made me happy." I said.

"But I didn't do anything" he said. 

"No. It's really you. If it's not because of you, my life would be different."

"That's...that's too much." he said then laugh.

I just smiled and closed my eyes. Today is really a beautiful day. "Thank you Jiyong." I said to him.
