Chapter 16: Inspiration

Sunday, 2pm

"Dara, focus! You're losing!" Mom hissed as she gave me a bottle of mineral water.

"Thanks." I nodded and heaved a deep sigh.

I gulped a little from my bottled water, I'm not really in my mood to play today. I don't know why. I used to be a very good player but why can't I play well today?

I can't lose. I can't! My scholarship depends on this match and my school's pride is in my shoulders too!

"DARAAA! GO DARA! IF YOU LOSE I'LL FOREVER MAKE YOUR DAYS A LIVING HELL!" I heard Bom shouted from the crowd. She's seated beside Donghae. They both have a huge cardboard with 'Dara, Fighting' on it. I just smiled and nodded to them.

I roamed my gaze to find if he already has arrived. But to my dismay, there is no trace of him. My hands balled into fist. Seriously! That guy! I told him to support me today but na-da! No sign of him!

*Flashback:

1:30 am

"Dae, stop here." Jiyong asked Daesung to stop his car on the bus stop outside our village.

"Ji, Can't Daesung drive us directly to my house? I'm dead tired already." I complained. Well, Daesung gave us a ride with his car from the underground club to here. Can't he just atleast drive us inside the village? We're almost there but this Jiyong really is stubborn!

Jiyong pretended he didn't hear me, he grabbed my right hand and pulled me to went out from the car together with him.

"Thanks Dae! See you!" He bid his goodbye then he slammed the door.

Daesung started the engine and immediately went off. Uwa! Seriously these two guys! I faced Jiyong and slapped his arm, "I told you I'm tired already why did you ask Dae to leave just like that?!" I complained.

I folded my arms on my chest and threw him a glare. Jiyong just smiled at me and he turned around and bowed a little.

"Ya! What are you doing?" I asked.

"Piggyback ride! This is better than Daesung'
