Gal Jii
Messages between Coach Gal Jii and his wife, Gar Yung-Hee
Gal Jii: Ryan Jae kind of had a melt down at practice today
Gar Yung-Hee: What? What happened? I find that somewhat hard to believe honestly. He's usually so sweet and calm
Gal Jii: One of the new assistants was messing around with the pitching machine and accidentally hit Ryan with a ball
Gar Yung-Hee: What? Seriously? Is he okay?
Gal Jii: He's fine according to him. Slightly bruised
Gar Yung-Hee: Did he yell at the assistant for messing around
Gal Jii: Not exactly
Gar Yung-Hee: Can you be clear in your explanation for once
Gal Jii: He freaked out at the suggestion of going to the hospital; the team doc isn't here today, he's out on vacation, so we were going to take him in
Gar Yung-Hee: Well that's okay. Lots of people are scared of hospitals
Gal Jii: That's true I guess. I just wasn't expecting Ryan Jae to be one
Gar Yung-Hee: Don't judge until you know his reasoning
Gal Jii: You're right, My Love
Gar Yung-Hee: Besides, you're afraid of the dentist. Same fear, different profession
Gal Jii: That's different
Gar Yung-Hee: And why is that?
Gal Jii: Because that bastard dentist tried to steal you away from me
Gar Yung-Hee: Honey, that was 15 years ago
Gal Jii: And I still resent him for it
Gar Yung-Hee: Don't hold silly grudges when you're the one who won out in the end, dear
Gal Jii: I will always hate him for trying to convince you to leave me
Gar Yung-Hee: Well I didn't
Gar Yung-Hee: Is Ryan Jae okay now?
Gal Jii: I think the second biggest surprise of the day was because it was Kang Il who calmed him down, honestly
Gar Yung-Hee: Kang Il? Really?
Gal Jii: Yup
Gar Yung-Hee: His work with the PR liaison must really be paying off
Gal Jii: He's definitely been getting better, less grumpy and he actually made a joke the other day
Gar Yung-Hee: Now that I find hard to believe
Gal Jii: It's true!
Gar Yung-Hee: Well I want to meet the woman who has been managing this feat. I bet she's amazing
Gal Jii: Not as amazing as you, My Love
Gar Yung-Hee: Smart man
Ryan Jae
"You're sure you're okay?" Coach Gal Jii's voice is thick and gruff as he stares at me. "I'll call a car and take you to—"
"I'm fine," my voice comes out snappier than I was originally intending, but the force in my words is the only thing keeping me from snapping completely.
