Sana suddenly appeared again in Tzuyu's life out of nowhere. When Tzuyu almost forgot her existence, the Japanese girl suddenly appeared like a whirlwind.
By that point, Tzuyu already has a job at the small entertainment the company that her family owns, already stable and living by herself in her luxurious penthouse that has a great view of Seoul.
Her mother called randomly one night and relayed the news and plan to her. Tzuyu was surprised, of course, it's been a while since she last heard of Sana, probably, five years or so?
"Let Sana stay there at your penthouse."
Tzuyu was bewildered, it was too sudden. Her mother reasoned out that it's hard to find a place for the Japanese woman, and that the place is huge enough for six people, besides, it's not like they never lived on the same roof back then. Plus, Sana would be with her at the company.
In the end, Tzuyu just agreed. Sana is still a friend, after all. She wondered what Sana would look like, did she change? Or not? Hopefully, she stayed the same sweet Sana. But then, she realized, they parted away very awkwardly but hey, she must've probably moved on from her, right? They are adults now, matured and all. No need to be awkward.
Few days had passed and Sana had already reached Korea. Tzuyu found herself waiting for Sana there at the airport, to pick Sana since her mother asked her to. She suddenly got nervous because what if she didn't recognize Sana and vice versa? She might get lost around. She was nervous about meeting her again, honestly. There's just a lot of things running around her mind.
But all of that thought went down into the drain when she spotted a familiar lady walking towards her with that cheeky smile. She wouldn't be able to miss or fail to recognize that smile of hers.
Sana's hair is now blonde, she became a little bit taller but for sure, Tzuyu is still taller than her. She has a slender figure but those hamster-like cheeks are almost non-existent anymore. Her features became sharper and matured.
Minatozaki Sana sure did grow up as a fine lady.
"Tzu-yah" Sana greeted as she halted in front of her, her grin widening as she stared at her. Tzuyu lowkey missed being called by her. She put up a small smile. "Hey, Sana-unnie, it's been a while." She greeted back and her gaze darted down to the luggage. "Oh, let me help—" Tzuyu got cut off when suddenly, she felt something around her body. Warmth.
Sana hugged her. Tzuyu remained frozen, not knowing what to do, and panicked. Upon realizing how tense Tzuyu is, Sana even tightened the hug, even burying her face on the younger's shoulders.
"I missed you,"

Weeks passed by so fast. Sana already got used to Tzuyu's penthouse, she already adjusted to her new environment and all, even at her workplace.
All in all, everything's going well. After that hug in the airport, they were awkward, well not really— only Tzuyu, she was awkward around Sana for a few days until she got over it.
Thankfully, Sana didn't change, she's just the same old sweet Sana that cooks breakfast and lunch for Tzuyu. They don't go to their workplace at the same time, Tzuyu's schedule is earlier than Sana plus it might raise suspicion around the office so they decided not to be together whenever they go to their work and after work. Sana's more than okay with it, she said that she likes riding buses and she doesn't want to be a nuisance too (Tzuyu swore that she's not).
However, Tzuyu noticed something... and she doesn't really know what to act or do. Sana became sweeter and clingier to her which is a shock, also bolder. The heart eyes Sana would always give her every time, she noticed it.
