07 | She's Perfect

Minjeong first saw Jimin in her freshman year. 

They were both transferees, but their first day in SM University was completely different from each other. As expected, Minjeong is the quiet one. She doesn't really know anyone aside from herself. Her only friend was Ningning at that time, but the latter goes to a different school. 

Jimin is different, she caught everyone's attention on her first day of being a college student. Who wouldn't be curious about her? An overachiever, a former member of a swimming team, and a one hell of a gorgeous woman. She was, and still, a total package.

Minjeong couldn't keep her gaze off of Jimin as soon as she laid her eyes on the girl. She remembered seeing Jimin with her friends (That time, it wasn't Yeji and the others) and Jimin just stood out. She exudes this aura that you just can't resist. Her beauty is mesmerizing and intoxicating at the same time. 

A lot of students already like her, including Minjeong. 

Second year of college has started. Minjeong is still crushing over Jimin. At that time, Minjeong was already friends with Aeri, and she also met Ryujin and Yuna because of Aeri. 

Jimin suddenly ran for the Secretary position in the Student council.

And of course, being the secretly whipped she is, Minjeong voted for her. She was even secretly cheering when Jimin promoted herself and their partylist. Minjeong was just so sure that Jimin would win.

And she did, she won the position. 

Minjeong was so happy for her. She knew that Jimin did her best efforts to win that position. She celebrated Jimin's win, even if the girl didn't know her. 

She's contended with that. Seeing Jimin happy…she's already fine with that. 

She has no plan on getting close with the girl. 

But now that she's close with Jimin, why isn't she doing anything?

Jimin is also Aeri's crush, yes. But that shouldn't stop Minjeong from reaching, right?

Jimin can pick whoever she wants. It's not like she would like Aeri because Aeri likes her. It doesn't work that way. 

Minjeong has a chance. She actually has one.

She just chose to ignore it.

And that frustrates Ryujin.

Yes, Ryujin.

How did Ryujin end up being in this situation? Well, it may or may not be because of Minjeong's fault. 

But it was Ryujin's curiosity that led up to where they are right now. 

"Ah, it's too hot." Minjeong grumbled as she fanned herself with her hands. Ryujin chuckled at her. 

"You should really go outside more often. Look at you, you can't even take a normal heat!" 

Minjeong rolled her eyes at her. 

"Ryu, you're a soccer player, of course you'll get used to this immense heat." Minjeong retorted back, emphasizing the word 'immense'.

The soccer player just laughed at her. 

"Well, I guess, thank you for coming to my training?"

"Whatever." The short haired girl mumbled. "I'm gonna have a water refill. I feel so thirsty."

"You didn't even play."

"Oh, shut up."

Ryujin grinned as she watched her friend walk away. She was about to go back to her teammates, when she saw Minjeong's phone beside her.
