Perfect World

Chapter 40

Mina POV

She turn around and face Somi. She nodded and Somi give a light smile. My eyes were set on her moms grave still. It was the only underneath the tree and she seemed lonely. Chaeyoung shuffled within my arms and look at me. Her eyes were puffy and her nose was red. A tear start to fall, I lifted up my hand and caught it within my palm. After catching it, my hand went up to her cheek and caressed it. I felt her whimper. My heart started to break. I didn't want to see her in this state ever again. After everything she's been through this year, the pool, Yeri and now this. Its all my fault. I felt guilty of everything.

"I'm sorry. I promise you, Chaeyoung. You are not alone. I'm here and I will always be here." I reassured her.

I want her to know that I was present. I didn't want her to feel abandoned.

"I just want comfort Mina." She said.

"I know. And I will be here for that. Please don't run away from me." I said.

"Mina, I came here because I feel like the only person who can do that now is my mom. But she's not here." Her voice cracked.

Slowly she start to peel back her layer, opening herself up to me. She was start to get wintry causing me to worry. She kept shaking within my arms.

"I'm here. I'm going to be here, Chaengie. Its okay." I whisper softly to her.

Her sobs start to become loud. I took my heels off and handed them to Somi. I slowly stoop up while I tucked my hands underneath her knees and her back to lift her up. Her arms draped around my neck. I felt her hot breath close to me yet her skin was still below freezing. I had to get her out of here.

We made our way which is a hassled because of the cold air blowing up against Chaeyoung and me. Somi open the passenger seat and sit down. I gently laid her on top Somi which I felt bitter at first but then again, my baby doesn't have back seat. I then moved to drivers seat and saw Chaeyoung was snuggled up to Somi's neck. My lips pursed yet know its not the time to be jealous.

I can see Somi smirking from a far. I want to take Chaeyoung back into my arms if I could. But again, this is not the time to get jealous. I blasted the hear and we all shivered but we were delighted by the comfort in the air. I drove back to my house smoothly and carefully make sure I didn't break to hard, so Chaeyoung didn't go flying out the window. I should really get a bigger car.

"Pstt, Mina." I heard Somi whisper.

"I think she uh- fell asleep." She said.

I look over and saw Chaeyoung's eyes shut down. Her breathing was soft and the paleness slowly faded away. She's warm again. Thank god. Tonight was just a complete disaster and I felt horrible about it.

"Its okay. You can carry her inside when we get to my house then." I said.

She nodded. As I pulled into the garage, I saw my parents car. My mom open the garage door peeking her head out looking confused as ever. I open the car door with irritation of the thought how bad the night went.

"Sweetie, hey. Why are you back so early?" Mom asked.

I let out a sigh.

"It has been a super long night. I have to talk to you though after uh, Somi drops Chaeyoung off in my room." I said to my mom.

"Who's Somi?" Mom asked.

We heard the car door open and there's she stood with Chaeyoung sleeping peaceful in her arms. The jealousy start to take over me slowly but I couldn't let that happen right now. My mom look at me in confusion. I stuck my index finger in the air to tell her to hold on and save her comment later.
