Chapter 1

Prolonged

Takes place after the party, It was a fun day for all the RFA members. Everyone was happy and enjoying themselves. Especially Yui, who had gotten a proposal from Jaehee to work with her at the coffeshop. And from that day on, she decided to live with Jaehee at her house. Night time was arriving soon and the skies were turning black and blue. All the RFA members said their last greetings and went home, wishing Yui and Jaehee all the best.

By the time they've reached home, it was late and both the girls got very tired. Yui was surprised that Jaehee had lived in such a small house on her own with so much work to do and yet everything was so neatly organized.

"Let's go to my room, we can unpack your things there." Said Jaehee smiling.

"Here let me help you." She reached for the clothing Yui was carrying and she felt a slight touch brushing through her arms a little. "O…Okay" Yui said. Her face turned pink out of a sudden.

Shortly, they've arrived at Jaehee's room. "Wow your room is so beautiful Jaehee !" Yui exclaimed.

"W-what you're joking isn't it? There's really nothing special in my room." Jaehee blushed a little.

"BUT ITS TRUE !. Look at all the books, their so neatly organized and the bed mattress is sooo cute." Yui went on and on complementing all the interesting stuff she saw at Jaehee's room.

("Oh dear, this is the 1st time somebody said so many nice things about my room. But…why do I feel strange about her?... I'm sure she's just being nice…But isn't this what best friends are suppose to feel?) Jaehee thought to herself.

"Jaehee are you okay?" Yui interrupted.

"YesYes of course" Jaehee snapped with a forceful smile.

"Erm…why don't we watch something, it'll be boring if you just stare at my room like that." Jaehee opened up a secret shelf and a wide array of Zen DVDs were neatly organized from start to finish. "You can choose whatever you like Yui."

"How about…this?." Yui pulled out a random DVD entitled "Promiscous Jalapeno Toppings."

Jaehee pushed her brows downward with curiosity while she smirked. "Are you sure? I don't particularly recommend this one."

"I just wanna see zen's abs together with you hehe." Yui giggled. Jaehee giggled as well and finally, both the girls were sitting close to each other watching the DVD on the wide screen of Jaehee's laptop on her bed.

Halfway through the film, Yui got bored and wondered why she likes the DVD so much. (Geez…does jaehee do this at her free time all day? There's really nothing special except zen's body lol…(Sign)…I really want her to focus on me more.) Yui thought to herself.

Yui was becoming more & more insecure every time she sees Jaehee paying close attention to the DVD rather than her. It's almost like she's being hooked inside the DVD. Yui couldn't bear the silent atmosphere anymore and said "Jaehee aren't you tired? Why don't we call it a day?".

Despite Yui's forceful effort to break the silence, Jaehee finally responded with an answer. "Just a few more scenes". she said. After that, she continued to watch without paying any attention to Yui at all.

Yui thought she finally got her to respond but eventually everything broke down. Seeing her so hooked up towards Zen. Yui began to wonder if Jaehee really loved her at all or she misunderstood her meaning and just wanted to be close friends or sisters. Masses and masses of negative thoughts spurred out

inside Yui's mind.

"Uhm…Jaehee…Do you remember the thing you said about the strange feeling you had for me. Its true, Isn't it?" Yui asked. Her face turned pale, She was pummeled by insecurity, and when she gets insecure she doesn't think.

Jaehee immediately snapped out of trance, she was shocked that Yui asked her something that's out of her expectation. Speechless for words, Jaehee forcefully came out with an answer. "I…I'm not quite sure what you're talking about, But we're like close sisters. Right? " She said with a slight smile.

Yui was heartbrokened by her answer, it's like all this time she misunderstood her meaning and she's been loving someone that can't be loved. "Oh…I see hehe". Yui was smiling but she was hurting so much inside. She began to lose hope.

"What's wrong Yui? You don't look very happy" Jaehee said with a concerned face. She can read Yui like a book even though she's smiling.

"Nevermind, its nothing…..Please continue the film." Yui continued to smile because she doesn't want Jaehee to get involved with her personal feelings.

Jaehee closed the laptop, she was more concerned about Yui and seeing her depressed like this makes her scared. "It's Okay, you'll feel much better when you tell me what's wrong". Jaehee's hand was resting on Yui's back to comfort her. She could felt the warm feeling of her touch. And in the end, Yui couldn't suppress her emotions any longer.

"It's because…I loved you too much". Yui said while small droplets of tears began falling down her blossomed cheeks. Jaehee was stunned by Yui's confession, She was mind blown with a lost of words at that moment.

"I'm sorry…I shouldn't have said that…But I just want you so much. Seeing you so near to me and yet I felt…so distant. I really don't want anybody to take you away from me… I'm sorry if what I said made you uncomfortable. It's just so painful to…"

Without finishing the sentence, Jaehee wrapped both her arms around Yui's shoulders. She tucked her head beside hers and said "Actually, I'm the one who should say sorry to you…To be honest I've been denying my own feelings towards you."

After a brief pause, Jaehee began crying as well. Yui could feel her sadness even though she can't see her face. It's like she's been carrying a heavy load of things inside of her.

"I'm really scared Yui. I'm scared that after I confessed to you, you'll think I'm weird…So I just pretend that everything's okay by treating you as my close friend". Yui can feel her grip getting stronger each time she expresses her depression.

"You gave me so much happiness to remember and yet all I can do for you is pushing you away and denying my own happiness. I really can't understand myself. Im really sorry". Jaehee added with more depression.

After flushing down those emotions they had for each other, the atmosphere began to light up with a little joy. "It's okay Jaehee~ Here let me give you some happy medicine." Without hesitating, Yui leaned in and kissed Jaehee's forehead.

Jaehee blushed again. She placed her index fingers together and said: Can I give you some happy medicine too? She said smiling. Her shy expression was so cute you just can't stand it.

"Sure". Yui said. Jaehee leaned in and kissed Yui's forehead as well but it's just not enough for her. Yui wrapped both her arms around Jaehee's shoulders. She kissed her face and neck from all angles.

"Stop it, it tickles haha" Jaehee shouted playfully. Eventually the kissing went overboard and caused both of them to fell off from the bed. Luckily they fell on the surface of another soft white mattress.

They were both sitting on the mattress. Yui hugged Jaehee's waist from behind and said . "I need more medicine from my Jaehee".

"You can have as much as you want ^^".she replied joyfully. Both the girls were giggling and cuddling with each other for the rest of the night.
