The opposite of me

Basketball

" Hey, pass the ball to me! " Ah Ri shouted to a classmate.

It was Physical Education, the lesson which Ye Jin disliked the most. She was not athletic and does not have any interest in sports at all. Even though, she disliked it, she still tried her best not to get an F for her P.E. grade as it was usually decided after every half a year when their teacher observes the students play for six months. They would also learn a sport every six month and this month, they happened to have basketball lessons.

Ye Jin

I seriously dislike P.E. lessons. *sigh* Isn't it always a waste of time? For a person like me? Every hour of P.E. lessons could be used to do more meaningful things like studying or volunteering at an orphanage. I am not sporty anyway and I will never have any interest in sports. I don't even know how I survived until the end of each P.E. lessons.

Back in Year One, they organized a six month long swimming program. Back then I was so bad at swimming and Baek Hyun, who was in 102 with me back then, had to follow me every time to make sure I don't drown. Silly Baek, why are you so cute and a nice soul?

Due to school streaming system, the students get shuffled up into classes in Year Two as Year One was basically like an orientation year and the classes you ended up in would depend on your registration. I was selected to be part of the 201 family and although I do treat them like a family, I was not close with anyone at all. I missed those days in the swimming program and I never talked to anyone much after Baek Hyun got into 202 the previous year. *sigh*

" Ye Jin, watch out! " Someone yelled my name.

I turned around and saw the basketball coming to me at full speed. AND IT WAS AIMING FOR MY FACE!!! AHHHH!!!!

" I'm sorry, Ye Jin! Are you okay? " The ball hit my face hard and I stumbled before falling onto the ground.

" I'm fine. " I rubbed my eyes with both of my hands before standing up and dusting the dirt off.

Wait a minute, why is my vision all blurry?

" I can't see, " I squinted my eyes and was only able to recognize two of my classmates who were standing beside me.

" Your huge glasses broke, " Ah Ri picked up the broken glasses that were lying next to my shoe.

" It's okay. "

" Well, let's continue! " They started the game again.

This is another reason why I dislike P.E. lessons. =,= How am I going to survive for another five more hours without my glasses? I also left my contact lens at home T^T !! How am I going to study? Is this day gonna be worse? Ah eotteoke? >~< I can't wait for this lesson to end and have my lunch! I'm so famished right now!

" Ding... Dong... Ding... Dong... " The bell for lunch rang. Our class was dismissed and everyone was going to the canteen with their friends, maybe except me that is...

" Yah! Yoo Jin, what did you do to your hair? " Someone tapped on my shoulder.

I turned around and saw a girl standing in front of me. I could already tell she was one of the school's queenkas but she mistaken me for Yoo Jin Unnie?

" Why aren't you answering? "

" Sorry but I think you mistaken me for Yoo Jin, " I replied and walked away.

" You are that girl in the glasses? " She asked.

" Ne, " I walked off quickly as I do not want to have further conversations with popular girls in my school.

It's not that I dislike them. I am just afraid of being judge because I am lame. I am always that girl in the glasses and nothing more. Yoo Jin is the popular girl and I'm nothing as compared to her.

" Park Ye Jin!!! " Someone called me again. This time, it wasn't a queenka. It was Baek Hyun. I turn around to greet him even though I couldn't see his face clearly.

" What happened to you glasses? "

" It broke, " I showed him the broken glasses in my pocket.

" Aigoo, poor Ye Jin, "

" You don't say, Bacon -,- "

" Kaja, lets go eat lunch. I know you're hungry now, " Baek Hyun put his arm around me and pulled me along.

Baek Hyun and I queued up for our meals but I felt the gaze of many students on us. I almost forgot my best friend is popular but I think these kids are taking it too far. Some of them were whispered and pointing at us. Or me. I don't know.

" Yoo Jin, you're so pretty, " A male student came up to me and started to wink at me.

" Jong In, back off. She's my best friend, " Baek Hyun pushed him away.

" So you are that girl with the huge glasses? Where did your glasses go? " He asked me.

" It broke. I'm sorry if I made you think that I'm Yoo Jin, " I bowed and turned away. I hate having to talk to kingkas, they make me feel uncomfortable naturally.

" Oh, okay. See ya hyung! I gotta go! " He left after finding out that I was not Yoo Jin. Does he have a crush on Yoo Jin or something? Or it could be that Yoo Jin unnie is just too popular and have more friends than I could imagine.

" Ye Jin, your turn, " Baek Hyun tapped on my shoulder and snapped me out of my thoughts.

" Oh. Thanks Bacon, " I smiled slightly.
