They all ate breakfast and right after that, Chaeryeong needed to drop Chaemin off to her school.

"Chaemin let's go" Chaeryeong called out as she wore her shoes

The younger came running towards her and then held her hand. Lia followed them going out of the room, they walked to the nearby bus stop to tale a bus going to school. Once in the bus, Lia sat separately from the sisters. She was remembering the scent of the younger last night, she smells so sweet like strawberries if Lia was right. She also remembered how tight Chaeryeong hugged her because she was afraid of the thunder. She was cut off from her imaginations when someone tapped her shoulder.

"Umm unnie, we're about to go down now" Lia said to the shorter girl

"Oh, okay" Lia said and then stood up, following the two once again.

"Be good at school, Chaeyeon unnie will pick you up laer okay?" Chaeryeong said and Chaemin nodded

"Bye Chae unnie, Lia unnie" Chaemin said snd then went off. As soon as Chaemin left, it felt a little awkward for the two older ones.

"Umm, sorry unnie for this morning, I didn't mean to push you" Chaeryeong said as she broke the silence.

"It's fine" Lia said and just smiled at Chaeryeong

How can her smile be so pretty? Chaeryeong thought. She gulped and then started walking to the café, Lia following her. Chaeyeon actually cancelled Chaeryeong's class for the week so that Chaeryeong could have a rest at least.

"Good morning Chae, oh and Lia unnie"'Minju said with a smile as she saw the two walking in the café, there were no customers yet since it was still very early.

"Can you make a drink for me Minju?" Chaeryeong said as she placed her bag on one of the seats nearby the window

"Sure, Iced Americano for the red hair and... how about you Lia unnie?" Minju asked, awaiting for the elder's orded

"Oh, I'll order later, I'll just look around" Lia said and Minju just nodded

Lia looked around the café, it looked really pretty since there were a lot of books and nice furniture. She turned to look at Chaeryeong, the red hair was reading a book, it made Lia feel something, she didn't know what it is but she thinks she got attracted to the younger. Since its been weeks since the two kept hanging out, would it be fine if she asks her already? but then Lia thinks its still esrly to be asking Chaeryeong the question. Might as well just wait for the right time

"Here's you order Chae" Minju said and placed the drink on the table in front of Chaeryeong.

"Thank you" Chaeryeong said with a smile

"Oh, I was wondering, how long?" Minju asked Chaeryeong

"How long what?" Chaeryeong was confused but then Minju faced to Lia, Chaeryeong got the signal.

"Oh, I'm not sure, hell, I don't even know now" Chaeryeong said and chuckled bitterly

"Maybe you guys just need time with each other to make sure of your feelings, that would actually be a nice start" Minju said and Chaeryeong just nodded

"Hmm, how about this, you tak a break for this night's shift, stay at your place and just rest, you actually need that" Minju said

"Minju, how about you guys? No one would be helping you" Chaeryeong said worriedly

"It's fine, we actually have new employees for this month, you know, training" Minju said and Chaeryeong just nodded

"Don't worry about us, for sure Miss Myoui would be fine with you having a day off and its your first time to have a day off after a long time, you probably deserve it" Minju said

"You think?" Chaeryeong asked and Minju nodded

"Hmm, I'll go back then, I really want to rest" Chaeryeong said and Minju nodded, Chaeryeong suddenly stood up, she was about to leave not until Lia stopped her. The older girl was holding her wrist which made Chaeryeong blush.

"I-I'm going back to my apartment to rest, they gave me a day off" Chaeryeong said as she starts to retreat her hand from Lia's hold

"Oh, well okay, do message me if something comes up or if you wanna hang out, I'm always free" Lia said with a smile

"S-sure unnie" Chaeryeong and then left. Lia pouted as she saw the other girl walking away from the café.

"You like her do you?" Minju asked Lia as she stood beside her

"Hey, don't creep up on people like that" Lia said

"My bad, anyways, you like her don't you? oh wait, you love her" Minju teased

"Like and love are two completely different words Minju" Lia said as she faced the girl.

"What do you mean different? it's almost the same" Ryujin said as she joined in their conversation.

"Just think about it this way, when you like a flower, you pluck it up from where t was, you just get them, but when you love a flower you take care of it and water it everyday. Now, do you get my point?" Lia asked as she crossed her arms

"Great point right there unnie" Minju said

"Anyways, I'll be going somewhere first, and also, if Yeji finds me, tell her that I went to Chaeryeong's, well its up to you guys" Lia said and left

"Oh Minju, here, buy yourself a drink" Lia said and handed Minju some money. Lia then went out of the café, she went walking around the nerby shops.

"I guess its lucky to have a close friend huh, your girlfriend's bestfriend is like your sister already" Ryujin chuckled

"I guess, but doesn't Chaeryeong do that to you guys?" Minju asked

"Oh, all of the time, she even treats us out for korean bbq" Ryujin said and Minju nodded

"I owe her a lot" Ryujin added




By the time Chaeryeong got back to her place, Natty asked if she could hang out with her, Chaeryeong didn't mind so she let Natty in.

"Let's watch some movies" Natty suggested

"Hmm, sure" Chaeryeong said as she turned the tv on and then played a movie, it went on until it was already night time, Chaeryeong had fallen asleep throughout the movie and Natty doesn't know how to bring the girl back to her room. Natty wasn't that strong and she hardly can lift up three grocery bags unlike Chaeryeong.

Just about when Natty decided that she would just pull Chaeryeong to her room, someone knocked on the door, Natty checked who it was and it was Lia.

"Thank god, mind if you help Chaeryeong there, she needs to sleep on the bed though" Natty said

"Uh... sure" Lia said shyly and then went inside. She actually texted the younger that she would be coming over for dinner, Chaeryeong replied saying that it was fine.
