Both Yena and Yuri now was in front of Han River, staring at the sea with full of silent.

Yena finally look at Yuri, she clear her throat. "So, why did you wanna go here?" asked Yena.

Yuri smiled. "Nothing. Just wanna come here. I heard this place is so peace and the couple usually confessed to each other here."

Yena burst out into a small laugh and she nodded. "Yes. Where did you heard that?" asked Yena again.

"My friend is telling me since she know more about human than me." Yena raised a brow.

"Your same friend that I saw?" Yuri nodded. Then she sigh happily.

"Let's go to sit. I'm tired standing."

said Yuri and Yena obeyed her. They turn around and suddenly Yuri stopped.

"Yah be careful!" Yuri yelled and run to somewhere. Yena shocked. She lift her head up and saw Yuri was helping a girl from being hit by a car.

Yena quickly run to them. "Miss, are you okay?" ask Yuri worriedly. Yena kneel down. The girl nodded.

"Why did you just standing there and doing nothing? You want to died?!" mad Yuri suddenly.

"I-I want to die... Everyone leave me alone. I don't have nobody right now." the girl crying. Yuri sigh and wipe the tears away.

"Hey girl. Listen to me. I don't know what happen to you, but this will not be settle if you kill yourself."

said Yuri gently, the girl nodded. Yena jsut watching them.

"Next time, be careful girl. Don't easily kill yourself because you have a more better life. Forget what happen to you and start a new life.." add Yuri.

The girl nodded again. "Thank you. I will go now." Yuri smiled as she nodded. The girl stood up and walked leaving them.

Yuri then stood up and look at Yena. She felt weird when saw Yena was silent. Slowly, she held Yena's arm.

Make Yena startled and back to her sense. "What's wrong, Yena unnie?" asked her and Yena shook her head.

She smiled. "Nothing. Sorry, I'm just spacing out." Yuri nodded.

"Now, let's sit." Yena nodded and they sit on the chair. Both of them silent.

"It's so fun being human."

Yena turn to Yuri when heard the younger said like that. Yuri looked down.

"How I wish I can live as a human forever." Yuri mumbled too slowly, but enough for Yena to heard that.

She felt weird. "You can live as a human forever, Yul. Like you did now." Yuri bitterly smile.

She shook her head.

"No. I can't stayed like this forever. Mermaid cannot live at the land forever. Our heart will changed into a stone." Yena shocked.

"When we at the land, we have a period of time. The only way to keep our heart beating at the land, we must fall in love with human and the person that we love have to love us back."

Yuri added, she lowered her head. Meanwhile Yena, she still shocked with the information.

"So, you don't have people you loved?" asked Yena carefully. Yuri smiled.

Then, she nodded. "I have, unnie. I fall for her for the first time I saw her at the ocean. But I guess she's not loves me back."

Yena clear her throat. Yuri lift her head up, and meet Yena's eyes. She smiles sweetly.

"And who is she?" asked Yena. Yuri just smiling and stares to Yena until Yena nervous.

It's you, Yena unnie. I fall for you for the first time I saw you in front of my eyes. I'm glad I saved you that day.

Yuri didn't answer, and she shook her head. Meanwhile Yena, she frozed. It's her?

"Let's go home, unnie. Eunbi unnie and Hyewon unnie might search for us." Yuri stood up and walked leaving Yena.

Yena speechless. She looked down and didn't believe it.

S-She loves me?

YENA lay on her bed, she still can't sleep after what happen earlier.

She turn to her right and saw Yuri already sleeping.

Yena sigh and she squeaked.

"I seems know that words. I was really sure Yuri's words earlier I have listen to somewhere."

Yena said confidently and in a low tone, didn't want Yuri heard it.

Yena closed her eyes to think and then, she open her eyes. Yena quickly wake up. She look to Yuri disbelief.

"N-No. It can't be. Yuri is the one w-who saved me that day?" Yena jaw dropped. She shook her head.

After that, she clearly remember Yuri's voice when she said the same words. Yena shocked even more.

"S-So, she saved me and fall in love with me? That's why she come to the land?" asked Yena didn't believe it.

Yena sigh and she stroke her hair. Yena look at Yuri once again.

She bite her lips. After that, Yena looked down. She sighed heavily again.

Do I love her? More than a friend and a sister? Really?

Yena let the question in her mind. She slowly get up and leave the room.

Yena walked to the kitchen and grabbed a water.

"Eo? You didn't sleep yet?" Yena turn around and saw Eunbi was walking to her and also grabbed a water.

Yena shook her head. "I can't sleep, unnie." answer Yena weakly. Eunbi felt weird.

Yena obeyed Eunbi. She sit beside the older and look to Eunbi.

Yena take a deep breath. Meanwhile Eunbi waited for her patiently. Yena looked down.
