I Guess I'm in Love | Ryuryeong

"Ryujin has been asking you out a lot lately" Hyunjin said to her girlfriend

"I know, but I just can't deny her offer and of course you're always there to make sure that I wasn't cheating on you" Heejin said and chuckled

"I need to check of course and just to be clear, Ryujin should have Chaeryeong honestly. She deserves her" Hyunjin said and sighed

"Hey! what are you guys talking about?" Chuu asked, she walked towards the two other girls

"Ryujin, she seems weird lately" Heejin said

"Chaeryeong's at her own house already, she went back just a while ago" Chuu added

"How did you know?" Hyunjin asked

"I asked Lia" Chuu said and they nodded

"I saw her yesterday though, she seems tired before doing the auditions" Hyunjin said and sighed

"You know what, I need to talk to Ryujin soon, maybe she just doesn't understand her feelings yet. Also, Chaeryeong was there for Ryujin the whole time, I saw the two of them" Heejin said, starting to stress out

"Yeah, and apparently, Chaeryeong won't go to her class again" Hyunjin said

The three continued to talk, wondering how they would convince Ryujin.

"Ryeongie, stop crying now" Chaeyeon said as she held her sister's hand, they were at the car on the way back home.

"I-I just can't stop thinking about her unnie" Chaeryeong said through her cries

"Shhh... come on, we don't want eomma to see you crying like this" Chaeyeon said worriedly. They finally reached the house and she parked the car. She went down first and then helped Chaeryeong.

They went to the door and rang the doorbell, it was opened by their mom.

"Eomma!" Chaeryeong cried and hugged her mother immediately, she didn't even got to greet her properly because of her feelings.
Mrs. Lee and Chaeryeong went to the living room, Chaeyeon on the other hand, left them alone for a while. Chaeryeong needs their mom the most at this time. She was getting some of Chaeryeong's stuff at the car, not until her phone rang.

::::::

"Oh Lia"

"Hi, is Chaeryeong fine?"

"She's at the living room with eomma, hopefully she does. She kept crying on the way back home"

"She can't stop thinking of Ryujin, she even wrote letters back at her place and left them there, just in case Ryujin gets back"

"I hope so, Heejin talked to me the other day, she said she wants to talk to Ryujin about Chaeryeong and her"

"She should, anyways, I have to go first"

"Sure, thanks for taking care of Chaeryeong while I was away"

"No problem"

::::::::

Chaeyeon then turned off her phone and then grab all of Chaeryeong's things. She brought it up to her room and placed it gently on the study table. She checked Chaeryeong's bag, and she saw a letter, she got sad after reading it. Chaeryeong really loves Ryujin...

She put the piece of paper back in the bag and went downstairs, Chaeryeong was still in her mother's arms, crying her heart out.

"E-eomma, why does love need to hurt so much?" Chaeryeong asked

"That's how it is sweetie, when we love we get happy or sometimes we get sad and also we get hurt. Anyone can experience this"

"B-but I did everything for her? Isn't it enough? wasn't I enough?" Chaeryeong asked

"Sweetie, you are more than enough okay? I don't want you to doubt yourself because of this" her mom said worriedly

"I just want to spend time with her, if only she didn't knew...."

"Ryeong sweetie, she would know sooner or later even though she didn't heard it. People will know after a few while"

"I wish I didn't just fell for her, I hate myself" Chaeryeong muttered

"Shh, sweetie, don't say things like that" her mother said and continued to caress her hair.

After seeing what was happening, Chaeyeon sighed, she went to the kitchen and prepared for their dinner, while that was happening, Chaemin finally went down from her room, she wanted to greet Chaeryeong but she was stopped by Chaeyeon.

"Hey, unnie, why?!" Chaemin asked while whisper yelling

"Not now Chaemin, she's not in the mood" Chaeyeon said

"What do you mean?" Chaemin asked

"She's just heartbroken okay? We don't want to mess with her further more" Chaeyeon said and Chaemin just nodded. She watched her older sister cook.

It was dinner time and it seems like Chaeryeong got a little better after her talk with their mom. She was eating pretty well but right after that, she went straight to her room.

"Should I-" Chaemin was cut off

"Leave her be girls, it's normal for teens of her age to be like this, we just need to understand her right now and most importantly, watch over her" Mrs. Lee said and the two sisters nodded

"Go on, your father will be here late, so might as well get ready for bed" Mrs. Lee said as she told the two to go upstairs to their room.

When morning came, Chaeryeong groaned, she really didn't want to go to school today but she remembered that Lia would pick her up or maybe Yeji. She got up from her bed and then went to the bathroom to take a bath and get ready for school, upon finishing changing her clothes, she went downstairs since her sister already called for her.

"What is it unnie?" Chaeryeong asked

"You're awake now, come and eat breakfast, I don't have classes today so probably I can take you and Chaemin out later, is that fine?" Chaeyeon asked and Chaeryeong nodded

"Oh, also, Yuna and Lia are at the dining, they just arrived" Chaeyeon said and finally, she saw her sister smile, Chaeyeon was glad, she then let Chaeryeong eat breakfast.

"Hi unnie! Yuna!" Chaeryeong said excitedly and then hugged the two

"Hi bub, me and Yuna wanted to go here early to pick you up" Lia said and Chaeryeong nodded with a smile. The two noticed that Chaeryeong seems a little happier today so they thought of not bring Ryujin up in the conversation

After eating, Chaeryeong brushed her teeth first in her bathroom and went back down so that she could leave with Lia and Yuna.

"Unnie, I'll be going now" Chaeryeong said

Chaeyeon then came rushing towards Chaeryeong.

"Goodbye, have fun okay, oh also, this, mom made you lunch today. She said she's sorry for not staying long to see you off to school" Chaeyeon said

"No worries unnie but thank you" Chaeryeong said and then hugged her sister

"I'll pick you up at 5!" Chaeyeon said as Chaeryeong ran towards Lia's car

"Nae unnie!" Chaeryeong replied

Chaeyeon saw the car driving off and then she sighed.

"I hope she feels better today" Chaeyeon said and went back inside the house, she still needs to drive Chaemin to school.
