I took charge of the camera as other crew members accompanied me to help with different things related to the shooting. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Sunghoon putting his ice skates on. I really can't describe how happy I felt when I saw him elegantly walking on his feets, it was overwhelming to see him not sitting on a wheelchair like he used to do back then.
But the moment I saw him get on the ice, it was different than alone happiness; my heart almost fluttered. A warm feeling spread over my chest and I didn't even realize but the corners of my lips curled up into a heartful smile, watching him live the dream he always talked about. His eyes suddenly met mine, abruptly forcing me to suppress my smile as I looked away.
It was obvious that he doesn't remember me anymore by the way he didn't try to talk to me even when we met after a long time, it was only me who didn't forget us. Watching him completely forget about me disappointed me, really.
I slowly operated the camera. As I focused the camera on him, I catched him still looking at me intensely through the lense. That made me doubt if he really doesn't recognize me or he was just pretending to forget me.
"What shall we do first? Shoot a short videotape or just take some photographs?" The man who I supposed to be the cinematographer asked me as I was the one managing the camera. "You can shoot videos, too, right?" He asked to make sure as I nodded.
"I think a video? Tell him to move, it'll be easier to shoot it." I suggested, not because it was actually easy. It was just because I wanted to see him skate.
The cinematographer clapped his hands together in order to get Sunghoon's attention which I assume already was on us, "Do the flips and axel first, let's shoot it that way" Axel... I remember Sunghoon mentioning it, it was his favourite part of skating.
I saw him shaking his head with denial. He walked down the rink and stood at a distance from us. "It'll be tiring to start the shoot with the flips" He spoke and I heard his voice clearly for the first time. It has grown deeper and raspier but still kind of fresh and sweet, making you feel like listening to it all day. "Also, I'm not in a mood to skate." I can't believe he's saying that, the boy who wanted to give everything up just to get on the ice rink again.
His response made everyone upset as it was openly lacing with arrogance. He ran his hands through the collar of his shirt, straightening it. "Let's shoot the videos tomorrow." He continued, sounding extremely nonchalant. What happened to him? He wasn't like this before.
"Oh, okay. Let's get the shots on the floor done first" Sunghoon hummed quietly before walking back a little as I eyed him rather with displeasure.
"Move your right foot forward and raise your right hand a little" the cinematographer directed Sunghoon's position once he stood still. But he didn't seem to understand much as he made his standing position worse. "Lower your hand, it's too high" he again directed but Sunghoon lowered it too much, worsening it even more.
"Not like that" the cinematographer whispered before walking closer to Sunghoon. He corrected his pose himself but Sunghoon again ruined it. He kept messing up with his posture more and more despite the given directions that were very simple. We took more than twenty shots but none of it was looking appropriate enough.
At that point, I understood that he was doing everything on purpose.
"Can you please focus?" I let out my frustration on him as I no longer could hold it. He stared at me plainly for sometime before his lips curled up into a sly smirk.
"Oh, why don't you help me focus then?" He poked his tongue into his cheeks provokingly as he didn't tear his eyes off me.
What's seriously wrong with him? I didn't say anything and waited for him to continue instead because I already knew something irritating was going to slip out of his mouth.
"Come here and correct my pose, if you're capable of doing that." He hasn't broken eye contact with me until now and I wouldn't lie, his gaze intimidated me somewhat. It was only two of us speaking, the whole place was silent as everyone had their eyes glued to us, watching us stupidly bicker but Sunghoon didn't seem to care less about them. All his attention was only on me, why is he doing it?
Was he looking down on me? Alright then, let me break your illusion, Park Sunghoon. I let go of my hold on the tripod and began walking towards him, leaving others dumbfounded. Once I stood right infront of him, I stopped. His expressions remained the same; oh, I forgot how he has always been a master at masking his true feelings.
"Stretch your right hand forward" I spoke firmly, also keeping the same flat expression as his. He didn't move and kept staring at me as I returned his gaze. The cinematographer who stood beside him slipped away from us and fled back towards the camera quietly.
I heard him chuckle as he slightly shook his head. "Like this?" He literally shoved his hand right in my face. Aish, this man.
I took a deep breath and grabbed his hand, taking him off guard. His eyes widened and I felt his hand shake under mine. I let go of his hand soon as I walked to his side. "Like this" I whispered. He turned to look at me when I held his hand again, I didn't look at him and slowly pushed it upwards.
"Do you also need help with your leg?" His eyes widened once again as he suddenly choked on air, shaking his head multiple times.
"I got it, you can go now." He continued to cough, waving his hands at me. I faked a smile at him as I bowed before getting back to my place.
After that, we took another twenty shots in no time and they were all looking very appropriate. We didn't have to even direct Sunghoon to pose, he did it himself with perfection. He's a fast learner, isn't he?
