Part of Me (Will Always Be Yours) - JinJoo AU

Chapter XII: Yujin

Chapter Twelve

"What took you so long?" you ask, the moment she stepped out of their cabin.

You've been standing there outside Cabin 6 for atleast half an hour now.

"Sorry, one of my siblings keep on asking me stupid questions, I'm starting to think if he's really our mom's son" Minjoo answered, annoyed while brushing her hair with her fingers "How long have you been waiting?" she asks, putting a familiar baseball cap on her head.

"Long enough for me to realize how ridiculous the idea is, but not long enough for me to back out from it" you replied.

"It isn't ridiculous, Yujinie" she chuckled "Besides you can't back out now"

"Figures" you simply replied that made her laugh.

Both of you started walking towards the other end of the camp, to the Pegasi Stables to be exact. Somehow Minjoo thought it is a good idea for you, to once again learn riding a Pegasus. You were out stargazing last night at the cliff when you told her about Hyewon's nonstop teasing.

"Hyewon keep on teasing me about being Phobos' daughter" you ask, looking at the stars "I don't even know who that is"

Minjoo chuckled at what you said, you tilt your head on her side your brows furrowed.

"What's so funny about it?" you ask

Minjoo shifted her position to face you, she's now laying on her side propped up on her elbow, her hand supporting her head. She gave you an amuse smile before answering.

"He's your half-bother, the god of fear" she said "twin brother of Deimos, the god of terror" she added.

"How can I be related to gods like that? they seem..." you said, thinking "dark, isn't my mother about love, pinks and anything nice" you added, which made Minjoo laugh.

"You're right," she said, stifling a laugh "but they got it from their father, Ares the god of war" she explained with a shrug.

"Aphrodite and Ares have kids?" you ask getting up.

"They have eight kids, Yujin" Minjoo said, chuckling at your shock reaction "Aphrodite and Ares are lovers" she added, laying on her back.

"How?"

"I'm not sure, Yujin" she replied "Maybe because there's a thin line between hate and love. Besides, your mom is beautiful and Ares put an effort to win her over" she added.

"gods' love life gives me headache" you said, laying down once again beside her "So why Phobos? I am not a coward" you ask, wondering.

"Are you really?" Minjoo asks, teasing you "You can't even ride a Pegasus because you got traumatized" she added, laughing.

"I nearly died that time," you said in a matter of fact tone "Ofcourse, I'll be afraid."

"I'll help you conquer your fear," Minjoo said, propping on her elbow 0nce again "Let's start tomorrow" she added smiling.

That question, brought you into this situation. The last time she thought you how to ride a Pegasus, the Pegasus threw you into the lake and the Naiads nearly kidnapped you. You've been trying to tell her just how ridiculous the idea is but she just won't listen. You turned to her and again, notice just how familiar the baseball camp she's wearing is.
