Paper Planes

lost from reality in folding paper planes
_

"another paper plane?" perplexed again, sua picks up the paper plane placed on her table. she unfolds the paper and as usual, it's written with something.

you look lovely with your hair tied today. 
have a wonderful day. :D

from, 
uh, am awkward.

sua giggles to herself after reading the letter. she slid it in her pocket and grabbed her bag to go back home. walking outside of the school compound, she spots a group of boys flying paper planes around, probably playing out of boredom. 

"dammit, you always win." a boy mockingly says as his paper plane crashes yet his opponet's paper plane is still flying high.

"i do my paper planes like how i do my-, nevermind." the girl jokes, following a sweet chuckle from her.

"paper planes.. maybe one of those boys send them?"

sua stood there waiting for a while, looking at the each boy, questioning whether if it's one of them who sent all those paper planes.

a paper plane flies beside sua and her eyes follow the plane. the paper plane softly lands near her. she bents down to pick it the paper plane.

and a hand reaches and touches. 

sua looks up and makes eye contact with the girl. the girl seems like she's been bewitched by sua's beautiful brown orbs. she whispers underneath her breath,

"fuck."

"i-i'm sorry." the girl immediately backs off and apologizes. 

sua just gave a eye-to-eye smile and reassures the girl it's fine. 

she observes the paper plane,

"lee siyeon. pretty name." she compliments. siyeon softly thanks sua shly.

"call me sua."

"siyeon?"

"ah- unnie."

siyeon stiffens upon seeing sua. siyeon collects her paper but sua stops her. sua takes a seat beside siyeon and smiles a little. 

"what are you doing here? it's drizzling. i don't think flying paper planes here is a good idea." sua says, obviously curious.

siyeon releases a stiff chuckle. she throws a paper plane and her eyes follow the plane that eventually crashes because of the weight of the raindrops.

"i don't know. just didn't want to feel this pain alone."

sua's confused look got siyeon and she sighed.

"what's written in the paper planes, what i want to say to the world. the rain, the pain of unrequited love but it's beauty still drops on you dangerously, "

"the paper plane, me." 

her eyes stay locked on the crumpled wet paper plane. her eyes filled with pain in the form of tears. 

"a paper plane will never fly long in air. till then, i still wish to be one. to be flying freely with this feeling of euphoria. when my love succeeds, it'll land beautifully. when my love is unrequited, it'll land painfully." siyeon deeply sighs as she finishes her sentence.

sua stood up collected the wet paper planes and threw it into the rubbish can near her. she reached her hand to the girl who was squatting beside her.

"it'll only land painfully in a destructive world you imagine of. you haven't seen what's on the other side yet." 

siyeon grabs sua's hand and she stands up.

"let's go, you're gonna get a cold." sua tells, softly rubbing siyeon's cold hand.

"let's go to the side where paper planes will freely fly forever."

and they both walked away, happily holding hands and swinging them.
