[BTS Yoongi] Our Basketball Love Story #Wattys2017

36

A/N: This will be a lengthy but not too long of a chapter so prepare yourself (and your heart)

At home, I sit down on my bed while reading my new book. Oma walks in my room and puts a sum of allowance on the table beside me.

"I'm so happy for you," she says as she sits beside me, "You're gonna graduate in 2 days!"

I smile at her and put my book down. "I can't believe it. It's already half a year."

"You can say that again. Anyways, that money is for you to get your hair done. Do you want anything else?"

"Nah, I'm good." I say as I point at the punching bag she bought for me after the results of my exam came out. It was pretty good.

"Then...are you gonna invite your boyfriend?" She says as she smirks at me. I scoff in disbelief and try to stop myself from blushing.

"What boyfriend..." I lie and turn around to hide my face.

"Oh come on, I hear your conversations all the time. You guys are so cute I cannot even-"

"Oma!" I shout to stop her from embarrassing me even further. She laughs and pats my back before dancing her way out of my room.

I grab a pillow and scream into it. It wasn't an angry scream nor a frustrated one.

It's what I always do when I miss Yoongi.

I take the phone off my table and dial his number. [Y-> Yoongi/ M(Me)-> Eunbi]

Y: Oh jagiya ~

M: Ew. Don't call me that. Anyways, I was wondering...

Y: Hmm?

M: My graduation...as you know...is in 2 days. There will be a ceremony so I was wondering if you'd like to come see me.

Y: Ah jinja? Mianhe, I have a match to attend.

M: Another match?

Y: It's a league match. I don't think I'll make it to your graduation. Chongmal mianhe.

M: Ah...araseo.

Y: Babe?

M: Mwo?

Y: I miss you.

I pause and try to fight back the disappointment sweeping all over me.

M: Ya, I gotta go. My mom is calling.

I hang up the phone and toss it on my bed. I want him to come to my ceremony but at the same time I want him to play in that league match. Dang, what kind of luck I have. I lie down on my bed and push the strands of hair away from my face before closing my eyes and falling into slumber.

~.~.~.~.~

"Ya, don't fall asleep!"

I whip my head up and blink my eyes to stay awake. Seunghee was gritting her teeth at me and I can sense the annoyance in her eyes. The principal was babbling about how happy he is to see us graduate and I hope he mean it in a good way.

Our ceremony was held in the school hall and we sat in the middle row. The day before, I had my hair done and treated so it's wavier and the burgundy brown is glowing between the thick strands.

The principle said his last words before he left the stage with applause trailing him from behind.

"Alright school," a teacher enters the stage with a microphone pressed to his lips. "We'll begin with the official graduation ceremony." And with those words, the students roar in excitement. I clap my hands and plaster the most genuine smile I can across my face. Oma was here, and so was dad and stepmom. But, why do I feel so empty?

One by one, students walk up the stage in their own ways; some acted like a jokers on purpose and a few tear up. Seunghee's name was called out and not surprisingly, many boys cheers in excitement. She simply walks onto that stage with her head held high before taking the graduation scroll from the headmaster. She walks down the stage with a smile on her face.

"Class A6, Lee EunBi," the teacher voice out. I stand up from my chair and make my way through the aisle, onto the steps on the stage. As I walk up, I look through the sea of crowds and I can see Oma wiping an escaped tear while dad busy snapping pictures embarrassingly. But oh boy,

I wish they were here. I wish he was here.

I walk up to the headmaster and he reaches out his hand. Just as I was about to reach for it...

"WAIT!"

The hall door burst open and everyone yanks their head around. 7 guys run in wearing suits and matching ties. They look ridiculous, almost stupid. Who the hell wears like that to a graduation party? But I knew who would.

And I can't help but smile.
