Riki finally removes his mask and beanie, settling into his comfy cinema seat and holding the button with his thumb to make it stretch out. You glance at his face while you can. It looks so different. You remember going to school with him in Japan, then moving to Korea not long after I-LAND aired, and now celebrating his ORANGE BLOOD comeback with a quality day of fun. Your dynamic never changed, him being a boyish 17-year old, you a girly girl who loves her ballet and ice-skating. But you weren't used to his mature face, the idea of him being an idol. It was only now that he removed his facial coverage, in the darkness of the cinema. It was odd.
