Love At First Kick

RIN POV

The day I've been dreaming about for years is finally here.

Today, I'm going to become Rin Park.

In the last 7 months, we have been through a lot. Ever since the Olympics, we have had so many interviews and presentations. We got even more sponsors, even getting cars. Each of us. We both earned so much money that we could comfortably stop working all together.

We also took that break.
We spoke to coach Ishijo and told him about wanting to take off some time. We've been told our places are waiting for us anytime we decide to go back. And we are going back once we come back from the honeymoon.

Jimin has been leaning into coaching a lot more, and he seems to like it more than he thought he would. I've done quite a bit of it, too. But that aside, we both missed competing once we took this break, so we're gonna keep going.

But for today, I have way more important things to do.

I was looking at myself in the mirror, gently spinning my dress. The soft lace decorating my shoulders and my chest is almost sparkly. The dress is tight against my body everywhere, apart from the waist down. That's where it spreads a little, but not too much. The only revealing part is on my back, where the deep V cutout is, but my long hair is falling down my back, covering it with luscious curles.

'Mom, you're going to ruin your makeup.' I gave her so many tissues that I had to ask people to get me a new box. She can't stop crying.

'You are so beautiful. I can't help it.' She smiled through the tears

'Mom...' I chuckled a bit

*knock knock*
'Can we come in?'

Soo Ho is on the other side.

My mom opened the door to let him in. He was holding Binna by hand, as she had started walking by now. She has grown so big.

'Lin!' She giggled cutely, running over to me, stumbling a bit as Soo Ho held her tiny hand

'Sis, you look incredible. Wow.' He had that sort of pleasant surprise look on his face

'Thank you, Soo Ho.' I chuckle. 'And hello, cutie.' I smile at Binna, who was still trying to get to me

'Binna, honey, auntie can't hold you now. She will ruin her dress.' He explains to her, and she pouts

'She did the same to Jimin. She jumped on his leg and wouldn't leave him be.' He laughs

'Of course.' I knew she would. She loves him. His name was one of the first things she learned how to say. He was crying for days about it.

'He is out of his mind, just so you know. He has been acting as if he's caged up. Impatient as hell.'

'Makes two of us. I can't wait to marry him.' I squeal

'Figured. He said the same.' Soo Ho snorts

'You're all here.' My dad beams, peaking through the door, then his smile dropped a little as he looked at me. 'Oh, my God. My baby girl is getting married. You look spectacular, honey.' His eyes got teary really fast

'I sure am, dad.' I grin. 'Can you take me to Jimin already? Please?' I plead

'That's why I'm here. It's about to start.'

Everyone was inside, and I was outside of the big door, my arm intertwined with my dad's.

'Just don't run away.' My sad warns me, snickering a bit. I tried going in twice in the last minute, and he pulled me back both times
