This was a bit too much for him to handle. He had wanted to ask Sid out in-- okay, not like that!! But he had been dying to ask if she wanted him to show her where that ice cream bar was, yet Yongha wasnât that bold when he actually wanted something. It was only when things were irrelevant that he could go all out. Not when he was crushing hardcore and felt like he wasnât worth the time of day. Yet he didnât even have to ask, she did that all on her own, and he mightâve had to go out and take a breather when the plans were settled. It was nothing extraordinary by any means, but the third year could merely breathe in his direction and heâd consider himself #blessed.Â
He had gone as far as writing it down:Â âmeet Sid after practice to go get vegan ice cream!!â, but for once in his life he hadnât felt the need to check his phone even once. Thatâs the one thing Yongha couldnât forget despite the passing of half a day, mostly because it was all he thought about through classes, lunch and even more classes. So it never even got an honest chance to slip out of his mind in the first place. Yes, it was that bad.
It was nice to get out of his tailored school uniform and into some black tights and something long, loose and cool (in this summer weather) that reached beyond his knees, much more dress than shirt -- and in a floral pastel design, of course. Yongha was waiting by the gate just as planned, nose in phone for the first time today to brush up on what he had missed while completely zoning out these past few hours. When he spotted Sid approaching the first year raised his free hand to wave, a radiant smile on his lips. He was so excited! âHeyâ he greeted cheerfully, patiently waiting for her to close up with him, âyou ready?â
