Grand Slam

“· · Whoops, how many hours has it been? ”

The quartz who was looking at the book smiled as he looked at Jinhee, who was groaning tightly next to him.

“We're not halfway there yet. ”

Jinhee shrugged her eyes and looked at the book she was reading.

“· · · Relativity Theory lecture? Ew. Now you're reading books beyond fiction, smart guy. This ignorant girl with your vast intellect is just amazed. ”

“What's the matter? ”

Quartz stroked Jinhee's head and asked.

Jinhee answered, clumsily.

“Get some rest. How can a person live with nothing but tennis, reading, studying? Don't you know you're resting? ”

“Isn't tennis fun? ”

The cornerstone opened its eyes and asked.

Jinhee firmly denied it.

“Funny! It's fun · · · hard. Then you should go out and eat something delicious, play, watch a movie, and rest. ”

“I find that more difficult. Watch this."

Feldspar handed over the bookshelf with his finger.

“How convenient. If you just hand over the bookshelf, you'll have so much fun. Isn't it the best?”

“· · · Yay, Nei. I cannot agree with the words of Yeong-seok, who admitted that he was a firstborn. ”

Jinhee shrugged her shoulders and said with her sleeping eye patch again.

“Wake me when you get there. I'm tired, too. ”

The rock smiled bitterly.

* * *

“Jinhee, wake up! We're here. ”

With a soft voice, quartz wakes Jinhee up and starts packing.

Jinhee lighting up her base and loosening her frown.

“I want to sleep more · · tired · · ”

“Yeah? Let's see · · · Korea is now 5 o'clock. I'm gonna go home and get some dinner and sleep. ”

I explained to Jinhee calmly as if she were a child, but I could not sleep for more than 10 hours.

So they packed their luggage and greeted the stewardesses and pulled the carrier out.

Bang, bang, bang!

Bomber bubble bun.

After going out the gate and looking for my parents, marble and Jinhee suddenly raised their hands to the Flash baptism and blocked their sight. I started to feel irritated by my irritated mind.

But I knew quartz well. That Yeong-suk and Jinhee were first faced with Korea, their mother country.

“Jinhee, let's wave our hands, smiling and not frowning. ”

The marble whispers in small whispers.

Jinhee nods as if she can't help it.

Bang, bang!!

Just as marble and Jinhee waved their hands in response, the shutter sound vigorously welcomed the return of marble and Jinhee.

“Young-suk! ”

“Jinhee!”

The marble and Jinhee, who found their parents, cut through the human sea like Moses.

And he's in jail. I finally got the feeling that I'm back in Korea.

* * *

Boooong -

In a car with little engine noise, marble said, "What a nice car."

Like when I was a child, I put my head on my mother's legs in the back seat and I blinked my sleepy eyes.

“Press conference? I never thought I'd do that. Did you know?”

Han Minji answered the question of marble.

“There were quite a few reporters when we got back. You asked me when I was returning, and I decided to hold a press conference under my attendance. You haven't been able to reach your son. I'm tired, but I'm sorry · · · My son. ”

“It's okay. It happens a lot. ”

He said as if the marble was not bulky.

At that time, after stopping for a while, Lee Hyun Woo's father turned on something in the passenger seat and gave it to the stone coldly.

“What is this? ”

The marble sits up and unwraps the package.

“It's a phone · · · · · ”

In the hand of the marble was a glowing black phone coated with fluorescence.

‘At this time · · · · 3G or 2G. ’

“I've already registered. You'll be able to write well when you're in Korea and call international numbers overseas. ”

I rubbed my phone like a marble in my father's description.

‘The legacy of the past. That's a folder phone, right? ’

Pressing the power button paused the loading screen and the main screen appeared.

The family photo was set in the background.

“Heh · · · Good. Do you have more pictures? ”

“It's on my home computer, so I'll put it on my phone. ”

“Give me an old picture of you and Mom. ”

The marble suddenly said.

“Film camera, not on the computer. ”

My mother said as if it were a tire. However, quartz turned on the camera on his phone and said.

“Let's take this and put it all in. ”

* * *

After spending a cheerful evening at dinner, the Yeong-seok brothers and sisters sat together for tea.

“What are you going to do now? Why don't you get some rest? We'll have to reschedule next year. ”

Hanminji drank a cup of tea and asked marble. Lee Hyun-woo closed his eyes and tasted the tea. Young Seok, who saw such parents, smiled and said.

“I have to meet with the head of the Hanshin Bank and talk about the contract, and I want to close the contract with the racket, clothes, shoes, etc. I have to go to school, I have to take a leave of absence, I have to date Jinhee. ”

At the words of quartz, my parents laughed.

“You've grown up, you've grown up. E. E. Kukuk. ”

Hanminji pushed the shoulder of marble with his finger.

The marble smiled bitterly.

“Your parents are going to have to agree to the contract. You're still a minor · · · If you make an appointment at Gangnam Station as much as possible, your parents will be comfortable, right? ”

“I wish it were us. Jinhee?”

“I think Jinhee needs to agree. Should I drive him on the weekend? ”

“That's good, too. ”

“What about school, by the way? ”

When the quartz brought out the topic, each of the parents thought.

Soon my father Lee Hyun-woo opened his mouth.

“If you can't study just a little bit more and go to Goguryeo University or Yeonha University, it won't be a problem. It is private and promotes · · · schools and recognizes athletes' activities. The problem is that it's a Korean university, a national university, a school that prides itself on being the best university in the country, with no ties to athletes. ”

“Hmm · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

Even the stone listening to my father's words is a presumption.

After traveling abroad for a whole year and coming in for a few months in winter, it would be the schedule of quartz and Jinhee, but the school was skeptical about whether to accept it.

At that time, Han Minji cut off the memory of the wealthy.

“You can drop out, what's the problem? ”

Han Minji confidently said to the attractive gaze.

“No, I don't want you to write anything down at school. It's roughly what your intention is to attend college on a professional debut. Weren't you trying to reassure us? ”

“· · In a way. ”

“I was relieved. I'm sure you can make a living on tennis. What more do you need? ”

“Well, you can study alone. ”

My mother's words were true in the passage to the rock where she studied.

But the marble was a waste. I felt sorry that I quit school less than a year after I had suffered a lot since I was a child. I wanted to try it because I dropped out of school after entering my previous life.

“Can't we just give it a rough shot with a paper or something? ”

The quartz cautiously speaks.

“What paper? ”

“A paper on tennis. I can't think of anything right now. ”

“Hmm · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

This time, the couple thought.

Since the pose worrying was the same, marble carelessly frowned and laughed.

I was very tired, but after that, she spent time talking with her parents. Just talking about it made me a little happier.

I was so relaxed because it was a long rest.

* * *

I thought there was nothing to be nervous about being with him all the time. At least that's what quartz thought.

But...

“Young-seok!”

The moment I saw Jinhee running, I hid my footsteps.

Jinhee, who had a slight loose knit on her tight jeans and a neat cashmere coat on top, was clearly dazzling.

‘Although clothing is too adult for your age · · · · · · · ·. ’

Rather, he coded to make the marble look younger.

A t-shirt in jeans and a padded jamba on top.

However, Jinhee said as if she was excited about what was so good about with her marble arms.

“Dating! Dating! Dating!"

The quartz smiled and said.

“Let's go to school and date after meeting the professor. ”

“Yes!! ”

When I walked to the crosswalk in front of the house, marble felt a strange sensation.

‘The turning point in my life · · · · · · · · · ·. ’

It reminded me of the past of avoiding the bongo car while holding a frozen Jinhee. Jinhee was just waiting for a signal, singing a nostril to see if it sounded good.

Zhongdong.

Soon after the signal changed, he said that recorded voices could be crossed.

So they took a light walk to the subway.

“Oh!! Oh!!"

Jinhee was amazed when she came down to the subway station.

Quartz was also caught in a strange feeling, contrasting with his previous life's memories.

Is this the first time you've been on the subway since you got back? ’

When I saw Jinhee who was so surprised, I thought of her.

After returning to the age of 7, I was surprised that I had never used the subway for almost 10 years.

‘Well, they were rich kids because they only drove cars. What did I ever do to Jinhee? I've become an adult who doesn't know the world. ’

It was a stone that felt guilty for a moment, but I dismissed it lightly and looked at the landscape of history.

In 2016, there was no landscape in front of the marble.

The gaze of the long line of people rushed past the marble and Jinhee.

Quartz and Jinhee moved and waited for their turn.

There was also an unmanned ticket machine, but few people actually used it.

I continue to use what I've always used as an inertia.

At the ticket office, the person in charge was dropping the tickets. Even that was quite remarkable for marble. No, it made me feel more like I missed you than I did weird.

“Where are you going? ”

Soon after it was his turn, the staff asked.

“The Korean military district, two of them, please. ”

“1,600 won.”

The marble picked up two thousand won from a pile of North Korean bills received in the name of dating costs.

As soon as Jinhee received her ticket, she watched for a long time, then took out her phone and took a picture.

“Amazing?”

When she asked, Jinhee answered without turning her head.

“Yeah, it's amazing. Surprisingly, it's a beautiful ticket design. ”

“Haha · · · · · · · · ·. ”

He led Jinhee to the ticket gate and put in a ticket. In the process, Jinhee was amazed at everything. The end of the surprise soon came to Jinhee with great emotion.

“Wow!! ”

Jinhee was amazed at the sight of those around her when the subway entered with a loud voice. It looked the same as when I saw my coat for the first time, so marble smiled brightly.

When the door opened and got on the subway, Jinhee asked.

“Cool, here. How much? ”

“Well · · · You and me should earn 20 years to live? ”

He replied as if the marble was not large, and asked as if Jinhee was surprised.

“Oh · · · That much? Expensive. I don't need to buy it. ”

Even though the words’ I can't even buy this' went up to the end of my neck, the rock that didn't want to break Jinhee's excitement was just a glancing smile.

While feeling the vibrations all over, marble and Jinhee headed towards the destination, the University of Korea.
