❝First connection ——「 kjd & cjh」

(sms → Junhong) Are you almost there? Don't start without me ok?. I'm there in 2.

Jongdae took his phone before he could leave his apartment, rushing since that afternoon nap took more time than he thought. He brushed his teeth and fixed his hair as fastest he could, almost forgetting his wallet and his sketch book. It wasn't his first time meeting someone from an online game, his first time was in L.A. when he met someone from DOTA. It was pleasure yet something curious considering they became like best friends once they saw each other's faces. Junhong was the first korean he met online since he moved to Hongdae. He still remembers when his favorite player from Tera told him he lives in the same district like him, he was surprised but also couldn't stop smiling, they got quite close after dealing with all their way to level 60 and now trying to save money for they masterwork gear. Tera was probably a game with only 60 levels, but it was definitely more than that.

He went to the place using his skateboard as always, as fast and furious as those guys in the movie but in a skate. The place wasn't far from his place, he was excited even if their meeting point was actually an arcade probably full of kids. For him, he was never too old for it. He arrived 15 minutes late, holding his skate under his arm and quickly looked around for him.

(sms → Junhong) I'm here! I'm wearing a black shirt and red cap. Close to the prize counter.

Mina was excited, energy spinning through her veins and a sort of nervousness setting her fingers to fidgeting. It wasn’t often that a friend she made in the hospital bothered following up again later. Usually people got back to their old lives and while they might text occasionally here and there, time got in the way. It wasn’t anything terrible or depressing, just life, but Jongdae had been so much fun to chat with that she was pretty glad it seemed like it wasn’t going in that direction. In fact, it was trending happily down the opposite path, considering they’d set up a meeting to explore Hongdae. She was new to the area and he was new to the country and the combination promised good times ahead, a chance to explore and learn about their surroundings without having to stumble through it all alone. It had been a month or so since she’d met him, his wrist broken in a skateboarding accident- something he’d cheerfully informed her wasn’t all that uncommon, considering he apparently wasn’t all that good. And she’d taken to the idea of that immediately- skateboarding. It seemed fun, freeing, exhilarating. The ability to zoom down the street, wind whipping in your hair. So it was little surprise that she was meeting him at a skatepark, board under her arm (picked out with his help, via a series of texts and picture messages) and a grin on her face as she scuffed the toes of her sneakers against the asphalt in nervous movements. By the time he showed up she’d gotten the basic ‘going forward’ thing down, rolling towards him (somewhat slowly) with a bright smile, hands stretching to steady herself by holding on to the other’s arm. “Hey, hi!” she laughed out as she settled herself properly onto the asphalt, foot sticking out to stop her board from rolling casually away. “I got started while I was waiting. I can see how you fall all the time, its sort of tricky,” she admitted with a quirk of her lips, head tilting as she glanced over at the other; expressive features and mischievous eyes. “Just don’t let me break my hands okay, I need them for drawing.”

As usual, Jongdae picked his small backpack and skateboard, carrying nothing else but his phone and sketchbook inside. It was curious for someone like him to actually make a friend in such an unusual place, a hospital. Even then when he broke his wrist of his right hand, thanking nature for saving his sacred left hand, his stay there was quite refreshing and bearable thanks to her. Who would know a korean citizen would like to explore the world just like him? He wasn't used to it since most of people knew everything already, taking him from one side to another expecting him to try every single thing they knew. He didn't mind of course, appreciation was his best friend, but the fact someone was going to try something by curiosity moved him in a certain way. So he thanked nature not just for saving his treasure but for letting him met Mina at the hospital.

He checked his phone for the last time, to be sure about the place and hour, flashing a small smile as he kept scrolling up all the messages. Mina was a pretty cute girl, their silly conversations through text could say a lot, how their friendship was developing as well, even if it was a friendship of just one month, he felt it longer. He picked a black and a white cap, putting the white one inside his back pack and wearing the other one before going out of his apartment, ready to go to the park using his skateboard as usual. He tried to make it in time so she wouldn't wait for him or something, following the 'gentleman pattern' as he was taught. 

Jongdae looked for her just as he got there, smiling wide as his eyes recognized her figure coming from afar. A soft chuckle left his lips just as he saw her approaching on her skateboard, finding adorable the way she tried even if it was her first time doing it. "I can see that! You are pretty good at it I have to admit, I couldn't do what you just did during my first time" he said as he stayed still, letting her hold on tight. His smile grew even wider, nodding at her comment "I promise I will keep safe your powerful weapon. By the way I got something for you" he quickly moved to get the white cap out of his bag, placing it on her head with a proud nod. "Now you have my blessing" he joked, fixing the cap on her head.
