As we enter the cottage, I was surprised that the girls are all curled up under the blankets in the living room watching a horror move since some of them are covering their eyes.

"Some things never change. Watching horror movies at 11:00 AM?"

The girls looked to the direction of the voice and stare at her in horror. All their mouths are wide open and I think Tzuyu is about to cry. I can't help but let out a small chuckle. They look so funny. I looked to my side and I can see Chaeyoung smiling too, but her eyes are starting to tear.

"Guys... do you see what I am seeing?" Nayeon loudly whispered to the girls without breaking the contact.

As if on queue, they all screamed, "AGHHHHHH!"

I can't help it anymore that I let out a laugh and said, "That's what you get for too much horror."

Slowly, they stood up one-by-one. Dahyun, Chaeyoung's best friend since childhood, run towards her and hold her hands. "Wow, they're warm... They're not cold anymore," she said and tears start to fall.

The girls all gathered around Chaeyoung as she explained to them her special visitation. I am now in the kitchen preparing lunch for all of us. I stayed out of ear reach because I do not want to hear that she is just going to be here temporarily and after her stay, she'll leave us again.

It was an emotional afternoon. We all chattered nonstop and every minute or two, at least one of us would shed a tear. As clingy as she is, Sana kept hugging Chaeyoung but I don't mind since she is like an older sister to her and I also saw how she really missed her.

The girls keep shoving food at Chaeyoung for her to eat and keep taking turns so they could sit beside her. While I am just there in the corner watching all of it unfold. My heart is so happy but there's a part that is unaddressed. I can't help but feel lonely as well since this is just all temporary.

We all decided to stay in the cottage for another night. Nayeon and Jeongyeon sleeps in one room. Momo and Dahyun in one, Sana and Tzuyu in the other. While Chaeyoung and I in our usual, which is her old room that converted to our room.

I dip myself in the bathtub and think about things. I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I did not notice Chaeyoung walking in her bathrobe.

She leaned against the bathroom wall, crossed her legs, and looked at me. Even though it's been a year since we saw each other, I don't mind her seeing me naked, since she saw my body a lot of times before anyway.

"Why were you so quiet earlier?" she asked.

I didn't answer and just sighed. I am grateful that she's here in flesh, but I still can't erase the fact that she'll leave me again.

"Mind joining you?" she asked and without waiting for my answer, she stripped her bathrobe and sat across from me in the bathtub. I just stare at her in awe and I feel like I can't put my guards up anymore. The power she has on me is just too much.

"Mina," she said as she shifted forward to hold my hands. "I know you're upset about me leaving after 49 days. I am just so sorry that I can't do anything. But all I want is to maximize the time I have with you. Please -"

I shut her mouth by charging in a kiss full of longing, sorrow, and relief at the same time. It is a powerful one. She backed down and placed her head on the edge of the bathtub as I go on top of her. My hands holding her bare body as I continuously crush my lips into hers, as if sipping and taking all of her. I've been longing for this moment, and I can't seem to control myself.

I am now at her neck, planting kisses at every inch of it. It feels so good that I am so absorbed at this moment when I did not notice that she's hurt already. She pushed me away and touched her right neck. Guiltily, I glance at the part of her neck and it's stained with fresh blood. I guess I bit too hard.

She just let out a laugh and said, "First night yet so horny, eh?"

I pout and look away, pretending to look for the bubbles button so the bathtub can be filled with it.

"It's okay, you know. I don't mind us having 48 steamy, hot nights," she winked.

"Ya!" I splashed her. "Watch it!" She laughed so loud that I can't help but to laugh with her too. I really really miss these kinds of moments with her. And I am just thankful I am able to experience them right now.

To the heavens, why can't I take her with me forever?
