My Introvert Girl

Part 6

Author's POV

Everyone is gathering on the volleyball court, they came to watch the game. Today the semi-finals would be held. Of course Mina came to see it too, she wanted to cheer for Chaeyoung. Yesterday she can't watch them played, because she have something to do. Her teacher ask for her help.
She's really excited, she never saw Chaeyoung this past few days.

I need to hurry, the match would be started in a few minutes.
Mina run outside her class, quickly made her way towards the volleyball court. When she arrived, someone she waited to saw is already there.

Chaengie....
Smile start to grow on her face, she stared at the girl. But then Mina frowned.

Why did she looks so worried.
She doesn't look good.
Is she nervous?
But she trembled so much.
Is she forced to do this?
The sight in front of her, has made Mina feel hurt. Chaeyoung on this states, she didn't like it. Then, Mina hear something that make her want to choke someone.

"Hey, you see that girl? She's the one who can't even do 'service' yesterday. I bet she would just be a burden, and make her team lose." Mina turn her face, searching for the one who just say that. There is two girl stood beside her, they pointed at Chaeyoung.

"Excuse me, what did you just said. If you can't say anything good than you better shut your mouth. You don't know how hard she practiced when you just stay at your home being lazy all day. You just a trash stop talking shit about her." Mina is really mad now, after hearing that the other girls quickly go away, afraid that Mina would beat them if they stayed any longer.

The whistle sound can be heard, that's mean the game started. Mina quickly turn her head towards them. Watching the two different team competition. Mina keep her eyes staring at Chaeyoung the whole time. She can see it, the pain in her face(?)

What happens?
Chaeyoungie....
Is she scared? But why?

It's the last point, who ever get the point would be the winner. And you know what happen next.
When everyone busy, surrounded the winner. Mina saw Chaeyoung run away, she quickly following her.

_____________

In a cafe not so far from their school, Mina and Chaeyoung sit in front of each other. After Chaeyoung start to calming down, Mina bring her to the nearest cafe. Chaeyoung just let her, not rejecting at all. Chaeyoung knows if she's with Mina that's mean everything would be alright.

None of them trying to speak, they just sat quietly enjoying each other company. After a while their order has arrived, Americano for Mina and Vanilla latte for Chaeyoung. Mina grab her drink and take a sip, her gaze never left Chaeyoung. While the latter just staring outside the window.
Mina put her cup back, and take a deep breath.

"Chaengie, it's been a long time since the last time we meet. How's your exam?" Mina trying to open a conversations, Chaeyoung bring her eyes up meeting Mina's face.

"I studied really hard and fortunately i got a good grades. How about you?" Mina smiled at her.

I missed her voice.
"Me too, i need to work harder than everyone so i can be the first rank on my class."

"And you did well, you got the highest score right?" Chaeyoung's smile start to become visible.

Mina nodded her head, her smile start getting wider after seeing Chaeyoung's smile.

"You must be really busy because everytime I'm trying to approach you. You would quickly go away, i thought you have something to do, Chaengie."
Chaeyoung didn't know what to say.
