First Lieutenant Lee, I don't trust that look.
We were currently in the stands waiting for the first lieutenant to make an appearance, since for some unknown reason the training could not start without his authorization or supervision.
Each one was gathered with their closest group of friends, Ha-na and Bo-ra were next to Ae-Sol watching the crazy things that Hee-Rak, Il-Ha and Tae-Man did, playing with their weapons in a "disguised" way. In front of all of us, I shook my head realizing that they were completely ignoring the words that the first lieutenant had said to them yesterday.
"Should you really be treating such a personal firearm so recklessly?"
Let me tell you, First Lieutenant Lee, you are indeed acting recklessly.
Soon-Yi, Joon-hee, Yeon-Joo, Yoo-Jeong and Deok-Joon were sitting around Young-Shin peppering him with questions about military training and reason for which he had understood so quickly what the first lieutenant was referring to the day before, when he ordered us to run towards the goal.
And then there were Na-Ra, Chi-Yeol, Soo-Cheol and Young-Soo, who for sure can't explain very well what the hell they're doing, but they're there.
Although I don't see Soo-Cheol now... Anyway.
When the minutes passed and Jang-Soo didn't show up, I started to get impatient.
Why did they take so long?
What was so serious that my boyfriend was worried? No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't find any answer.
I sighed feeling defeated.
Sighing has become a part of my daily life ever since I realized that I couldn't express myself freely without being riddled with bullets for having a different opinion from others.
Deciding to ignore what my classmates were doing and trying to distract my thoughts that, no matter where they start, always end in something tragic or weird, I preferred to bury my face in my hands, starting a mental countdown in order to calm down.
My count was dropping when I remembered that the person who had taught me that method to calm down was Jang-Soo, I gasped in exhaustion.
It feels so far away and it's just one room up.
Anyone who knew me too well and came up to me at this moment could easily deduce that something is bothering me.
But the one person who knows me like the back of his hand is the main source of my concern.
I laughed to myself. How ironic is life.
Sometimes I would like my social circle to be bigger but then I remember that quantity is not equal to quality, nothing assures me that having many friends will make me happy.
