Since the day Jisoo told me that I’d be the Juliet in their play, we started to practice our lines over and over. It was maddening and the lines of the play haunted my dreams!
“Jisoo!!!” Jisoo and I, at the same time looked for the source of the voice. We sat in the football field since it was quieter there because no one was practicing. “Over here!” I saw Nayeon head towards us.
She stopped in front of us. I noticed that she wore glasses. “Oh, hi Jennie. Right?” I nodded as she sat with us. “So, what are you doing here Jisoo?” Jisoo showed her the script for the play.
“We’re going to have a play.” He said.
Nayeon’s eyes widened. “It’s Romeo and Juliet?! Ohhh… I love this play. I mean, I love all Shakespeare’s plays!” She smiled while I just rolled my eyes. Daheck. I couldn’t believe that a person would love to read those crappy plays—they’re simply boring and they’re like nonsense.
“I already played the Juliet before in my high school days.” She said while smiling. “O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or it thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, and I’ll no longer be a Capulet.” She said with feelings. My eyes widened with awe, she was perfect.
She looked at me and said, “I am very wonderful right?” I just looked away.
“You were okay.” Jisoo simply said and she pouted.
“So tell me, who’s your Juliet?”
'CRAP, don’t speak Jisoo. Don’t you dare speak. I'm gonna hang you upside down!'
I sighed and I saw Jisoo smile. “It’s a surprise. Only the drama club members know.” Nayeon laughed.
“Oh I guess she must be a good actress and I hope she’s way better than me.” Jisoo looked at me as if trying to imply something. “But Jis, you could have chosen me….! But maybe she’s better than me.” She frowned.
My stomach flipped. OH NO, you are better. I sipped some Gatorade.
“Yea.” HUH? Yeah as in, he could have chosen her OR yea as in, I was better than her? That left me a question ah.
“Oh whatever.” She stood. “I gotta go guys. Bye Jisoo, bye Jennie.” She walked off.
Silence filled us when she was away.
He stood and offered me his hand. “So, let’s practice.”
I nodded and stood. “O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or it thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, and I’ll no longer be a Capulet.” I said.
He frowned. “Can you put more feelings Jennie?”
I felt a slit in my heart. “I’m no actress.”
He didn’t respond to my statement. “Let’s just do it again.” I repeated the line for football-field-knows-how-many-times but still he said, “More feelings?”
“I’m tired. I don’t want this.”
“Jennie you can’t back out. Were on stage in three days!”
“Let’s just forget about it.” I raised my hands in the air. I was annoyed because Jisoo was irritating me! “I won’t join the play and you can just find another girl out there who would love to be your Juliet.” I started to walk out.
I heard Jisoo collect his papers and go after me. “But we have talked about this right?”
I stopped and looked at him. “Yeah. You told me you want me to be the Juliet. My gosh Jisoo, why me? You could have chosen some other girl who is better than me!”
“Yeah I should have chosen Nayeon.” He talked softly but I heard it.
“YEAH, YOU’RE RIGHT. You should have chosen her cause she’s far better than me!” I almost yelled at him.
I ran away with tears filling my eyes. Yea I was a crybaby but I was sure that it wasn’t tears of sadness. They were tears of anger. I was angry at him.
I stopped by the willow tree and wiped my tears.
Then I saw Jisoo in front of me panting. “I’m sorry I got carried away.”
I raised my hand to his face. “You don’t need to explain. I get it; you don’t want me to be the Juliet. It’s nonsense talking about this. I don’t care at all.”
“No---”
“Sssshhh---” I stopped him and breathed slowly. The anger inside me started to lessen. I realized that it was nonsense being angry over nothing. “I’m not angry. We’re still friends, don’t worry.” I laughed.
Then, he began to sing.
"I think you're fine,
You really blow my mind.
Maybe, someday, you and me can run away..
I just want you to know,
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet, hey Juliet"
He winked at me and a nice curve formed in my lips.
Here's the song btw.
