"so you think you can take me on this time?” she asks, more of a rhetorical question than anything; obviously, he wants to, considering that they’re in their usual sparring spot, positions already taken up, determination and friendly tension lingering in the air.
this has become not only a habit, but more of a weekly routine. it’s not often that sowon can find anyone who’s worthy of being a sparring partner, mostly because all those guys who had told her that they’re just so into fighting have turned out to be no more than big-mouthed boys who loved using their fists more than their brain – with no technique or use whatsoever.
taekwoon, however, is a guy truly worthy of an opponent: a black belt in taekwondoo, not really sowon’s area of expertise, but her experience in judo and karate somewhat balance that out, the combination of these having helped her out in the past, currently leading the friendly ‘tournament’ between each other by one thin win (but a win is still a win). sowon is determined to come out victorious this time, as well – but whatever will happen, is still the call of the future. // @cvtaekwoon
