going crazy | kim junkyu

19.

"can we play volleyball now?" hyunsuk asks, setting down his soda can on the sand. 

"sure," miran throws the volleyball towards hyunsuk and it hits jihoon. "oops. sorry, ji."

"you did that on purpose!" jihoon screeches.

seunghun picks up the volleyball and points over at jiwoo and eunji sitting on chairs beside the court, "those two are ready. jiwoo has food and stuff already."

"i'm ready," hyunsuk straightens his tank top. "ready to win!"

seunghun scoffs, "you have the park twins in your team, how good can your team be?"

miran's head snap towards seunghun, "bitch."

jihoon, along with miran, glares at seunghun, "you're going to regret those words, seunghun. just you watch."

"they're definitely twins," yeoreum turns to junkyu. "they take this very seriously, huh?"

junkyu laughs, "yeah. it's kinda scary.  there's always a penalty for the losing team. it's different every time. i guess it piqued miran's interest because she's playing."

"what's the penalty this time?"

"the losing team's members have to buy the winning team lunch every day for the first month and a half of school."

"we better win, then," yeoreum smiles, "assuming it applies to me. i figured it would just be within your group."

"it applies to you, don't worry! we better win or i'll cry along with my wallet."

yeoreum puts her arm on junkyu's shoulder, "we'll win. i know we will."

jiwoo blows on her whistle, grabbing everyone's attention, "are you gonna play or what?"

the two teams make their way to their sides of the court. miran and jihoon are too busy plotting a way to win, everything else around them going unnoticed. miran doesn't care about the situation in this moment. she promised herself she will enjoy this day no matter what, and she listened to herself for once.
