It has been some time since the two kites were up in the air. The sun, although was not at its highest, kept a constant high temperature in the setting. The two girls, both refused to give in, stood there in the field careful with their handiworks and kept the kite up high.
“I bet you’re hungry, why don’t you just give up and go eat something.” Tiffany slyly suggested with an intention everyone knew about.
“No, I’m fine.” Jessica responded. She then used the sleeve of her right arm to wipe the sweats that were visible on her forehead. “I can eat after I beat you.” She added with a smirk on her face, and took a glance at Tiffany.
On the side of the field sat two girls watching this so called kite competition.
“Yah, how long are they going to fly their kites?” Yuri asked and turned her head sideways to face Taeyeon, who was sitting down on the grass next to her.
“I don’t know.” Taeyeon responded but unlike Yuri, she kept her eyes on Tiffany. “If you don’t want to keep waiting like this, why don’t you go tell Jessica to give up?” She casually suggested.
“Psh. Never.”
Then once again the two “husbands” returned their undivided attention to their wives in the middle of the field with their kites. Suddenly, something caught Taeyeon’s eyes as she watched Tiffany stepping backwards.
“Tiffany, watch your step!” Taeyeon quickly screamed.
Unfortunately, her call was too late as Tiffany has already fallen down. Too drawn into what’s above her head, Tiffany did not pay attention to what was behind her – it was a hole in the ground. Worriedly, Taeyeon rushed to her wife; Yuri quickly followed.
“Fany ah!”
“I’m okay!” Tiffany yelled out. Her back and bottom are now flat on the ground. But surprisingly, her hand was still attached to the roll of string and the kite was still in the air.
Jessica looked over to see the fallen Tiffany on the ground then quickly burst into laughter. “Ddil Fany.” She remarked in between her laughter.
But to her dismay, a bird flew by and started to peck on the string to her kite. “Yah! What are you doing?! Fly away!” She yelled and wiggled the string back and forth hoping that it would somehow scare the bird away. Soon enough, the bird flew away… along with the kite. She gasped and stared at the kite as it quickly flew away.
Tiffany who was still on the ground found herself grinning. And within seconds, that grin grew into a loud laughter until her eyes disappeared. With one hand still holding on to the roll of string, her other hand switched between pointing her index finger at Jessica and slapping the field of grass.
The sight of Tiffany also caused Taeyeon to slowly laugh along. It was obvious that Yuri was holding in her laughter, but nonetheless, she walked over to Jessica with a calm face.
“Jessica…” She opened her mouth.
“No fair!” Jessica grumbled and stumbled on the ground. “You.” She looked at Yuri. “Come with me to get the kite.” She commanded without giving Yuri time to respond. She immediately grabbed Yuri’s hand and ran towards the direction the kite has flown towards.
“Jessica, slow down!”
“Hey, wait for us too!” Tiffany yelled then quickly rewound the string back to its roll. Within twenty to thirty seconds, she successfully reclaimed the kite from the air. “TaeTae ah, let’s follow them.”
“Okay.” Taeyeon nodded then together with Tiffany, ran towards the direction of Yuri and Jessica.
By the time Taeyeon and Tiffany could see Yuri and Jessica, they were standing under a tree.
