Chapter 2: Got the race to win

"Are you ready?"
Chenle asked the boy, leaning his elbows on the car's window.

"I think so."
Jisung sighed, trying to gather his courage up.

"Pull yourself together and win this race, bro. You got this."

"Thanks, Chenle. I'm ready for the battle."

"That's my guy. Have fun though."
Chenle began to walk away slowly, waving at the boy behind the wheel.

Jisung waved back, before Chenle disappeared inside the building. He sat in the car for a while now, inhaling and exhaling. Trying to calm himself down.

"You got this. Let's go."
After saying positive words of affirmation, he pushed the gas pedal.

When he arrived at the place, the ocean of people welcomed him. It was always crowded to the point, the cars had no place to park.

Noticing a new car coming their way, people created space for Jisung to drive in the circle. The moment he turned off the engine, the boy was already surrounded. He exited the car looking around. People recognized him directly, cheering and shouting his name.

Jisung waved to everyone, leaning back on his car, while a certain person made her way through the crowd. She ran like crazy, without apologizing to people, she bumped into. Finally, she emerged, throwing her arms on Jisung's neck.

"Babyyy, I missed you."
She said cutely, not letting him go.

"Eunji, um- hi. I missed you too."
Jisung replied politely, engulfing girl in a hug.

"Where did you get that car from?"

"Oh, I repaired this Honda with Chenle, installing new engine and painting the whole car."

"Yeah, yeah. It looks cool. Nice job."
The girl said nonchalantly.

"Thanks, cheer for me on this one."

"I don't have to. I know you're going to win."

"But I don't...Anyway, I'm going to try my best."

For the time being, another car drove in the crowd. Once again, everyone made space for a black, Chevrolet Corvette. On the other side, Jisung was too caught up in a conversation with his girlfriend to realize, what was happening.

The door to Chevrolet opened to show a girl, dressed in black leather jacket with her black ripped jeans. Her long, black, silky hair, fell on her back creating waves. She hid her eyes behind sunglasses, even if it was a night time. Confidence beamed from her like a starlight.

The girl passed by curious people, checking her out. The girls gasping, being mesmerized by her beauty and at the same time - hot demeanor.

"Are you the new racer?"
A boy popped out from the crowd to block the girl's view.

"Exactly. Hi, there."
She smiled widely, putting her sunglasses on top of her head.

"Wow, what a view - everyone got shocked, haha."
The boy laughed nervously, making the girl's smirk grow even more.

"I'm Wong Kunhang, but everyone here calls me Hendery."

"Nice to meet you Hendery. I'm Fang Yuxi."

They shook hands, smiling at each other friendly.

"I like you already. Tell me about the opponents."
Yuxi added, looking around the place.

"Right. You see that blonde girl over there? It's Lee Yujin. She's quite popular here and had a winning strike, many times before. She drives her silver Volkswagen Tiguan like a bitch."

Yuxi chuckled at Hendery's
description, nodding her head.

"That black haired guy, it's a real walking playboy - Jeong Taehoon. No matter, which girl you point to, he  slept with her. He drives this beautiful gem - neon green Skoda Octavia."

"Wow. Good car, bad driver."

"So, it seems. Last, but not least, this boy over there - Park Jisung. The new fish in the sea. He's fresh, but got popular in 4 months. What a star. People are betting, that he's going to be the king of the streets. I might...think that too."

"I can't say, he's driving a car. It's more like, he's swimming smoothly with this car, almost sailing. Anyways, that's his new car, Honda Civic. He destroyed the engine in his previous one. Poor thing, wanted to experiment."
Hendery shook his head in agony.

"I love experimenting. We could be good friends."
Yuxi laughed, looking in Jisung's direction. He didn't notice her yet, although she analyzed him, smiling softly.

"Do you have any questions?"
Hendery broke the trance, she was in.

"No. It's fine for now."

"Good. If you have any, just come to me."

"Sure, see you around."
She waved to him, turning her back to look at Jisung. His girlfriend blocked his face, while kissing his cheeks. Yuxi exhaled deeply, rolling her eyes at the sight. She knew already, that this girl was bad news - knowing from experience.

Finally, Yuxi made her way back to her car, being previously stopped by a few people, which wanted to talk to her. She leaned on the side of the car, drinking one of her energy drinks, that she had in stock.

The crowd seemed to melt away - meaning the race was about to start. Meanwhile, two of the famous racers, walked up to greet her, wishing her good luck on the race. She thanked them politely, feeling someone's eyes on her.

Yuxi turned her head to catch Jisung, staring at her. Once he noticed, she's looking back at him, he widened his eyes - fakely coughing. Immediately, he got in his car to drive up to the start line.

The girl shook her head, playfully smirking under her nose.

Oh, this is going to be so much fun, Park Jisung.
