All of sudden, Lisa froze instantly. She couldn't even make a sound to apologize. The guys of the soccer team were all big guys. They watched the soup spilled over Jungkook, the long dark green strips of veggie leaves hung from Jungkook’s left arm like string. Fortunately, it's almost winter time and people all wore heavier clothes in layers. There were of course issues to wearing too many layers. It would be a pain to remove and wash all the pieces of soiled clothes.
Jungkook had a painful expression on his face. His teammates surrounded him and used their sleeves to brush off the hot veggie strips so they wouldn't get burned themselves. It looked like his clothes were soaking wet, his wrist was swelling and turning reddish. The teammates made a quick decision; without waiting for Jungkook's reaction, two of the teammates helped him to go to take care of the wound.
Three of the teammates stayed. They furiously yelled at Lisa, "You idiot! You hurt his hand! How can he kick the ball now?!"
"If anything happens to Jungkook, we absolutely will have you pay!"
Afterwards, the three stared sharply at Lisa like wanted to kill her. She was shaken somewhat, couldn't respond, and didn't even notice that those three had walked away when she came to her sense.
The onlookers also gradually dispersed. Lisa dejectedly bent down to pick up her soup bowl. Just as she was about to leave with Minnie, she saw there was a bowl full of rice and food set on the table next to her. Did the food belong to the student whose hand just got burned by her? She wondered.
She paused a bit, then picked up the rice bowl. She thought to herself, she would use returning the bowl as an excuse to find that guy and apologize to him. Just now, she was so scared, she couldn't even bring herself to make a sound to utter the word "sorry."
She was in no mood to eat at the cafeteria anymore. She went back to dorm with Minnie. She's shaking her head, what they just said---didn't make any sense! He injured his hand, why couldn’t he kick the ball anymore? Maybe he's playing handball? But handball is played with two hands, why did they say kick?
She was so baffled and hungry. Without realizing what she was doing, she picked up the rice bowl and started eating. It didn't dawn on her that her food was all over the cafeteria's floor. Whose food was she eating, then? Yack!
