Chapter 21

They got home safely thanks to Nayeon driving the bike carefully. She decided to give the bike back to her Japanese friends since it's getting late. Their mother greeted them as they went in, especially Jeongyeon. She was proud of her younger daughter to face his father after five years and make up with him before he leaves.

After that, Nayeon and Jeongyeon took a bath together. It was their second time taking a bath with each other. Nayeon can't help but blush while staring at Jeongyeon's naked body when she closes her eyes while rinsing the shampoo from her hair. Jeongyeon finished showering and excused herself from the older girl to dry herself and put on her pajamas as she grabbed a towel and wrapped it in her body. She went out of the bathroom leaving Nayeon who was extremely blushing.

Nayeon took her thirty minutes for her to go out of the bathroom and went inside their shared room to call Jeongyeon to eat dinner. Tonight, they decided to use their matching blue-white striped pajamas that their father gave them from one of his trips. Both of them looked cute while wearing it.

After eating dinner, Nayeon volunteered to wash the dishes as Jeongyeon headed to their room after brushing her teeth. After washing the dishes, Nayeon went inside their room and found Jeongyeon rummaging on the scattered letters on the floor. It was Mr. Yoo's letters for Jeongyeon that she never opened (but doesn't have the guts to throw it away in case she gain the urge to open them one day) ever since he sent him those to her these past five years. Now, she decided to open them after they made up earlier.

Nayeon looked at her and encouraged her to open them as she smiled. She walked towards their bed and sat at the edge behind Jeongyeon, who was sitting on the floor while holding her father's recent letter.

"Jeongyeon-ah, what were you talking to appa about at the train station?" Nayeon asked while Jeongyeon was busy reading one of the letters.

Jeongyeon paused from reading and responded, "The same thing I was five years ago." She sighed. "The only difference is that... I've matured enough to understand what appa was saying."

Nayeon crouched down and reached for one of the white envelopes. She opened it and saw  a picture of Mr. Yoo smiling widely with the children playing around with him. When she saw how he was happy with the children, her tears fell down unknowingly from her eyes. Jeongyeon continued talking. "Appa wanted to look for something badly enough for him to decide to leave the Yoo family and travel around the world. That's all."

She heard Nayeon sniffing and when she turned around, she saw her crying while closing her eyes as she held the picture tightly. Glistening tears were falling from her eyes that made Jeongyeon worry. "Unnie, why are you crying?"

"I wonder why..." Nayeon started as she wiped her tears and smiled slightly. "I'm just really relieved, that's all." She chuckled. Jeongyeon just stared at her. "Ah, shit. Why am I the one who's crying? I'm sure you're the one who really wants to cry." 

Jeongyeon got up from the floor and sat beside Nayeon. She leaned in and cupped Nayeon's face with her right hand as she wiped her tears. Nayeon was startled when she felt Jeongyeon's hand on her face. She was more surprised when their nose touched and their lips were centimeters away from each other as soon as she faced the younger girl. Both of them gasped. They didn't know what to do but suddenly, they felt each other's breath as they were leaning towards each other. Jeongyeon's right hand moved down from her cheeks and made its way to Nayeon's nape without her realizing and pulled Nayeon closer, making their lips touch.

Nayeon was so intoxicated to their kiss that she pulled Jeongyeon closer by her waist and nibbled her lower lip as she she licked Jeongyeon's lips asking for entrance. Jeongyeon opened her mouth and let Nayeon's tongue roam inside as her left hand moved up and locked itself with her right hand on Nayeon's nape, making the kiss more deeper. Nayeon held her waist tight as she moved her head from right to left without breaking the kiss. She knew she was dominating Jeongyeon, and she liked it. She moved Jeongyeon up, making her sit on her lap. They were kissing each other passionately but slowly and softly, no lust and not aggressive, not wanting to leave each other's lips.
