Chapter 10

Let's talk about love

It's been two weeks since the time that I went to watch the movie with Jessica. During these time, I've been trying to help Taeyeon to prepare for a special event for Tiffany. After Sunny informed Sooyoung that Tiffany actually agreed to be Taeyeon's girlfriend if Taeyeon asked her, we decided that Taeyeon need to do something about it. It took us almost a week to convince Taeyeon about the plan and with Sunny's help, we came up with something.

That weekend, Sunny purposely asked Jessica and Tiffany to join her for an outing. She told them that it's been sometime since the 3 of them spend time together so she wanted to bring them out for a picnic at the Hangang River. Since Tiffany and Jessica also had no other plans, they decided to just follow along with Sunny's idea. As the 3 of them walked to the bus stop, Sunny left Sooyoung a quick message to inform that they are on their way.

Sooyoung, Taeyeon, Yuri, Yoona and me were already at the Hangang River preparing the stuff needed for the surprise event. We had spread out a big mat at a great spot under a tree with a basket full of food, thanks to Sooyoung who was scared that it won't be enough for herself. Anyway, when Sooyoung informed us that Sunny had messaged her, the rest of us quickly scrambled into position. Our university is quite near the Hangang River as it only takes about 15 mins of walking to reach there. When Sooyoung saw Sunny, Tiffany and Jessica from a distance, she quickly called them over.

"Yah!! Lee Soonkyu! If you had wanted a date with Sooyoung, you don't have to bring us along." Jessica said as she stared at Sunny who was seating down beside Sooyoung.

"Don't worry, Sica. I'm not alone. Taeyeon, Yuri, Yoona and Hyun Jae are here also. But I'm not sure where they went to. Why don't the both of you sit down first while I go and find them. Help yourselves to the food too but don't finish them up okay." Sooyoung replied as she  stood up and walked away.

While the 3 girls were helping themselves with the sandwiches and fruits, suddenly a small girl came up to them and tapped Tiffany on the shoulder. When Tiffany turned to look at her, the small girl then passed a small pink envelope to Tiffany. After Tiffany said thanks, the girl went off. Tiffany was confused but decide to open up the envelope. Inside it was a small pink note.

To Tiffany,

I'm not really good at expressing myself.

Tiffany was confused with the small note. She turned it behind to see if there's any name to show who was the sender but it was blank at the back. She looked at Sunny and Jessica who were also looking at her with a confused look. Before Tiffany could open to ask them questions, another small boy came up to them and did the same thing. It was another pink envelope but of a different shade. Tiffany took out the note and read it out loud.

I fell in love with your beautiful eye-smile the first time I saw you last year.

Once again, Tiffany turn behind to look for any clues but it was blank again. Tiffany wanted to ask the small boy but he was no longer around. By now, Jessica and Sunny were getting curious as they scoot closer to Tiffany. Soon, another girl came to them and passed another pink envelope. This time round, Jessica stopped the girl and asked her who gave the envelope to her. The girl shrugged her shoulder and ran off. The next note was read out again.

You might reject my love but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

Tiffany tried to look around the park for any familiar faces but she can't seem to find anyone. Before she could realise it, another boy came up to her and pass her another envelope. Jessica who could no longer contain her curiosity, grabbed the boy's hand and asked him the same question as before. But the boy only replied that he didn't know who the person was except that she said it's the last one. Tiffany opened the envelope and read the note after Jessica let go of the boy who was on the verge of crying.

If you are willing to give me a chance, look up to the sky.

This time round, there was a "KTY" at the back of the note. Tiffany scratched her head and frowned. Sunny then whispered into Tiffany's ear.

"It's Kim Tae Yeon, pabo-yah. Aren't you going to look up to the sky?"

Hearing that it was from Taeyeon, Tiffany instantly looked up to see 4 kites flying around near to each other with the words 'Will', 'You', 'Be', and 'My' on it. Tiffany couldn't understand the message as Sunny nudged her. She followed where Sunny's finger was pointing to and saw Taeyeon struggling with a kite which doesn't seem to be able to fly. She then saw that the rest of the kites were actually being flown by Sooyoung, Yuri, Yoona and Jae. From far, Tiffany could hear them screaming at Taeyeon to hurry up. It took some time before Taeyeon managed to fly the kite with the word 'Girlfriend' on it. The moment Tiffany read the whole thing, she smiled so brightly and instantly ran after Taeyeon to give her a hug. Taeyeon's kite flew down when Tiffany hugged her, so the rest of us let go of our kites. The girls then gathered around Tiffany and Taeyeon to congratulate the new couple.

"Yah!! Why did you take so long to lift up your kite? Do you know how difficult it was for us to control our kites?" Sooyoung asked as Sunny who followed Tiffany came and hugged her from the sides.

"Mianhae. My hands got tangled with the strings. I had to calm myself down first before I manage to fly it"

"My Taetae is so dorky and calm at the time."

As the girls continued teasing TaeNy, I noticed that Jessica was not with us. I glanced back to the mat and saw her sleeping while leaning against the tree with her head dropped to the side. I walked up to her and took out a blanket to cover her from waist down since it was a bit windy. Sitting down beside her, I slowly paced her head on to my shoulders so that it's more comfortable. From my sitting position, I continued watching the rest of the girls playing around with the kites and chasing each other around. Without me realising, I fall asleep with my head on top of Jessica's head.

I woke up to the sound of giggling and also when I felt movement coming from Jessica. I slowly open my eyes and saw 6 pairs of eyes looking at us, all with a cheeky grin on their faces. I realised that Jessica had also woken up but both of us started to blush when we realised the position that we were in. During the short nap, Jessica had accidentally wrapped her right leg over my legs while my left arm was wrapped around her waist. The both of us quickly straightened ourselves up before we were laughed at by the rest of the girls.

"You should have seen your own expression, Jae. Lucky Taeyeon already took a picture of the both of you earlier." Sooyoung laughed as she grabbed a sandwich from the basket.

I looked at Taeyeon who had a smirk on her face and grabbed her collar. Whispering into her ears, I told her to send it to me. Taeyeon ended up laughing out loud causing me to laugh along while the rest of the girls just looked at our dorky behaviour. We spend another 2 hours at the park before we decided to head back to the campus. We packed our stuffs and the girls walked beside their own girlfriends, leaving me to walk alongside Jessica right at the back.

"Jae, thanks for letting me rest on your shoulders earlier. I didn't realise when I fall asleep and if not for your shoulders, I might have ended up with a sore neck."

"No problem, Jessica. I just wanted you to be comfortable." I smiled at her.

"Were you the one who covered me with the blanket too?" I nodded my head as Jessica mouthed the words thank you to me.

Soon all of us had reached the campus. Yuri had went off to send Yoona to the bus stop while the rest of us went back to our own dorms. When I opened the door to our dorm, Taeyeon and Sooyoung quickly dragged me to the living room. They told me to stay there while they took the basket and mat to the dining area. By the time they finished putting the stuffs, Yuri appeared at the door and joined me in the living room.

I then realised that I'm going to face another round of questions by them after the incident earlier. As usual, they tried to ask me about my closeness with Jessica and if I was hiding anything from them. I answered them as honestly as I could and they gave up after 15 mins when they realised that I was telling the truth. We then changed the topic to talk about the new couple, TaeNy. Taeyeon thanked us for our help, preparing for the event and promised us that she'll take care of Tiffany well. We continued teasing her until Sooyoung became hungry and we begged Taeyeon to cook kimchi fried rice for us.

********************************

Preparation for the upcoming futsal competition has been very intensive lately. At the same time, we were also busy preparing for our examination. It was the time where you need to be very discipline with yourself as you juggle between your sports activity and studies. I've been spending a lot of my free time in the library with Sooyoung, Taeyeon and Tiffany. Sometimes, Jessica will join us too if she's not feeling lazy or not going out with Taecyeon. Sooyoung and Taeyeon still needs to handle their radio show and I'm amazed by their dedication to it even when they are tired.

We were at the futsal practice, going through the drills. Besides Sooyoung, Taeyeon, Yuri, Hyoyeon, Yoona and me, our team also consist of 4 senior players including Clara, our team captain. Ms Lee has informed us that our first team will consist of Victoria as the goalkeeper, Yuri as the defensive player, me and Clara as wing player and Taeyeon as the pivot. The rest of the girls will act as the reserves. At first, I was reluctant to play as the first team player and had suggested for Hyoyeon to take over my place. Hyoyeon is a fast runner and her stamina is really good. Even though her ball control is not as good as mine, she is working hard to improve it. Furthermore, I felt that I'm still new to the team compared to Hyoyeon. But when Hyoyeon herself approached me to take the offer, I agreed. Hyoyeon said that it's all for the team and not personal glory so since my skills were better than her, she has got no problem giving way to me.

We were having a practice match with the first team players against the reserves. Sunny was standing beside Ms Lee, helping her to monitor our physical condition. The sports hall was filled with a loud of shouting as the men's team and the cheerleading team were also having their practices. But all those noises were still unable to overshadow the dolphin scream that I heard. I turned around to see Jessica on the floor, holding on to her ankle. I just stop playing and ran towards her as the rest of the girls followed me. By the time I reached her side, she was surrounded by the rest of the cheerleaders.

"Give her some space." I shouted. I didn't know why I acted that way but I was very anxious to check on Jessica's condition.

Their physiotherapist wetn to Jessica's aid as I kneeled down beside her. I can see that she was trying not to cry but the pain on her ankle was obvious in her eyes everytime the physiotherapist pressed on the injured area. I grabbed her hand and rubbed it, hoping that it'll soothe her in any way. She looked me in the eye and I tried to smile to ensure her that everything is fine.

"I think we need to bring her to the hospital. It seems that she had twisted her ankle but I'm not sure if there is any further damage to her bone. It's best that we have it x-rayed to make sure that everything is okay." The girl left to inform the teacher-in-charge as Tiffany came to sit beside me.

"Jessi, are you okay? Painful?" I saw Jessica nodded her head to Tiffany and that's when her tears started to fall.

My heart hurts when I saw her crying. The teacher came back and informed that she will bring Jessica to the hospital and asked Tiffany to follow her since both of them are dormmates. Even Sunny volunteered to go along, just in case they needed more help. I watched as they left the hall with Tiffany and Sunny helping Jessica out.

"Don't worry. She'll be alright." I looked at my side and saw Taeyeon smiling at me. I nodded and walked back to the court. I apologised to Ms Lee for running off during a match practice but she said she understood my actions since she knew that all of us were close to each other. Before we continued with our practices, I turned to stare at the men's court where the guys were having their practice match. I was staring at a particular guy who seems like he wasn't even bothered by what happened earlier. That guy was Taecyeon.

"Even if you stare the whole day at him, he will still be playing his futsal. Sometimes I think he doesn't really bother about Jessica." Yuri was standing beside me as I shake my head and sighed. I joined them and ended the practice 30mins later.
