JUST IN ONE WEEK. - 4th day -
- GENG’S POV -
It was our statistic time; it’s our subject before recess. I’m trying my best to understand everything my teacher said. It’s hard for me to understand, though I’m not stupid. Want to know why?
1st. I’m still not good at Hangeul, I’m still on the process of mastering it.
2nd. I hate math, any kind of math.
3rd. I’m distracted by my seatmate - heechul.
I looked at her and cherishing every movement she does. She was solving the problem that was given of our teacher while my teacher is explaining it to the whole class, she was solving it already. It was expected from her. Since she already took advance class in USA.
“Is there any problem?” she asked. I snapped. I quickly answered, “nothing.. nothing..”
She giggled. “What?” I asked. “nothing.. you looked funny when you answered me..” she imitated me by waving her hands and shook her head like what I did. And I find it funny also.
The bell rang for our break time, we both didn’t notice the time. I didn’t let the chance pass, so I asked her if she wants to eat with me. She said, “sure..”
When we reached the cafeteria, we ordered our food and looked for a table for two. I don’t want anyone to interrupt our moment.
We talked and ate and talked and ate. Then, laughed. I feel comfortable towards her now. “you want to eat with me.. again? Tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow?” I asked. I know I’m being too obvious. But I don’t mind. “sure..” she answered. I really wanted to jump from happiness.
When we’re back to our room, we still talked. We didn’t mind our teacher, she taught me some Korean words that I still don’t know and I taught her some basic mandarin. I felt like I’m getting her attention bit by bit. I felt our closeness grew because of that.
We went home together, since our house is in the same directions. It was an awkward silent. “You want to watch a movie this Saturday? I heard 2012 is a great movie..” I asked her. Taking the chance, she took long before her answer. “yeah.. but I prefer new moon.. if that’s okay?” I just nodded for agreement. I didn’t expect that she’ll say ‘yes’. Awkward silent again.
When we reached her house and said our goodbye. “I’ll pick you up around 2:00pm..” I said. “okay.. take care, bye..” she waved at me and went inside.
When I reached my home, “wow~~ this day is amazing..” that’s all I can say.
- HEECHUL’S POV -
It was statistic time, my favorite subject, actually. I already learned this when I was in America. So while the teacher is explaining it, I’m already solving it. It was a piece of cake, easy in plain English.
I felt someone was looking at me, so I checked who it is. It was geng. “is there any problem?” I asked him. “nothing.. nothing..” he answered, I find it funny when he answered me. I didn’t laughed, but I giggled. “what?” he might be confused why I giggled. I tried to imitate him , “nothing.. you look funny when you answered me..”.
He smiled with me.
The bell rang and it’s recess time. “you want to eat with me?” he asked. I was a bit shocked, I never expect that. I mean, not now… “sure..” I answered back.
When we reached the cafeteria, we quickly ordered our food and looked for table. Luckily, we found a table for two.
We talked.
We laughed.
We ate.
After that, he asked, “you want to eat with me.. again? Tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow?” he asked me. I felt happiness with those words. “sure..” that’s all I can say.
In the classroom, we didn’t listen to our teacher that much, instead, we taught each other’s own languages. Like, I taught him Korean words or phrases that he doesn’t know and he taught me some basic mandarin, which is hard to pronounce. It was fun. Luckily, our teacher didn’t notice us. I felt closer to him now.
Our class ended, we went home together. While we’re walking, he spoke. Breaking the silence between us. “You want to watch a movie this Saturday? I heard 2012 is a great movie..” he said. 2012 Is great, but I really like new moon.. I don’t want to spoil this. So I answered, “yeah.. but I prefer new moon.. if that’s okay?” I know he won’t said ‘no’ to this. Then, silence again.
When I reached my home, we said our goodbyes. “I’ll pick you up around 2:00pm..” he said. “okay.. take care.. bye..” then, I went inside.
I directly went to my room and hugged my pillow tightly, I wanted to scream out of happiness.
“amazing!!” I told myself.
- END OF POVs -
While heechul and her mother having their dinner, heechul talked to her mom bout this coming Saturday.
“mom, can I go out with my friend this Saturday?” she looked at her mom with pleading eyes.
“sure. But be home at 10:00pm, okay?” her mom allow her to go. Because of too much happiness, she stood and hugged her mom and said, “THANK YOU!!”
Han Geng is on his bed thinking about this coming Saturday. He can’t help but smiled.
When both of the about to sleep.
“Goodnight, hannie..” heechul said in her mind.
“Goodnight, my chullie..” Geng said aloud.
