Two Worlds Apart [MiChaeng Fanfic]

24

[Flashback]

I woke up lying face down with half of my body on top of her and my head resting on her bare chest. When I look up, I'm surprised to see her awake. She's smiling down at me while stroking my hair.

It still feels strange and new that she doesn't have hair anymore. But she still looks so hot.

"Good morning, love," she said and gave me a kiss on my head.

"Morning, love," I said as I hugged her. "What time is your chemo today?"

"1:00 PM. Let's have lunch first."

"Okay. What do you want to eat later?"

"You," she smirked.

I gently slapped her chest. "Ya! You're very horny, for a cancer patient like you. And gosh, it's still - " I moved sideways and reach for my phone to check the time. "Freaking 10:31 AM in the morning."

She lets out a chuckle and said, "I really had a good time last night." I moved to lay beside her so we are both lying on our backs. Then I turned sideways with my hand supporting my head while I did little traces with my free hand all over her body.

I made a heart-shaped trace on her left breast and touched her nipple.

"Look who's horny too at 10:31 AM," she said as she grabbed my naughty finger and bit it.

"Ow! Not my hand," I said as I position myself to sit up. "I'll order lunch." I grabbed my phone again from the bedside table and went to the food delivery app. "What do you want to eat?"

"You," she said and slowly slides her hand down my g-spot while looking at my reaction. I decided to let her be and enjoy it while it lasts.

"Hnggg..." I dropped my phone and gripped on the sheets as I indulged in the sensation.

Then she went under the sheets and ate her breakfast.

"Agh... Chaeng..." This time I gripped on the headboard for support.

"I don't think I'll ever get tired of your taste," she said as she continue sucking my private part.

"Mmm... Chae... We're gonna be..." I breathed hard. "Late. For your - Agh... Hnggg... Chemo."

She stopped and for some reason I felt disappointed. But we have to stop for real since we'll going to be rushing later if we don't.

"Okay, love," she sit up and gave me a peck on the cheek before she stood up. "I want some cold buckwheat noodles. I'll go wash up first." She shake her butt while walking then I throw a pillow at her.

"Ya, stop it!" I laughed. She looked back and winked at me then disappeared into the bathroom. Aigoo, my girl, really. How can someone like her suffer a horrible sickness?

---

I'm driving all the way to the hospital while holding her hand. She's seated in the passenger seat. She rolled down her window and breathed in the air.

"The wind feels so good on my bald head," she said.

I smiled sadly and said, "You're a hot baldie, Chaeng."

"I'm Minari's hot baldie."

I rubbed her head and asked her out of curiosity, "Aren't you nervous?"

She shook her head and said, "Why would I be? You're here."

I'm moved by her answer. I was encouraged all the more to be strong for the both of us. She musters strength from me. I should be her rock. I shouldn't be weak, no matter how hard times can get.

We arrived at the hospital. I waited for Chaeyoung outside of the clinic. I have many minutes to spare so I bought a cup of coffee from the hospital's canteen and surfed on the web. I searched about her sickness, the side effects of chemotherapy, the success rate, and the like. My heart sank knowing that it is uncurable and many people died from the sickness.

I just hope it will be a different case for my baby.

Because I don't want to be any more sadder, I look at our old photos with Chaeyoung and with the girls. We have been together for five years now, and I'm just amazed how we have grown altogether. I stared at our first picture with Chaeyoung for a long time. I realized she hasn't aged a bit. Her baby-like features are still at present. And she's still petite. While I look different because of my hair style and my makeup right now looks more matured and sophisticated.

I smiled as I walk down memory lane and suddenly, Chaeyoung is already beside me, also looking at the photos with me.

"Wah, it's my favorite picture of us," she said, pointing at the screen.

The picture was taken when the girls and I went to Hawaii. Chaeyoung and I were looking at the sunset and Sana took a picture of us with our backs facing at the camera. Chaeyoung was leaning her head on my shoulder while I was wrapping my arm around her waist. The shot was also perfect since it captured the beauty of the sunset at that time.

"Yeah... I agree," I said.

"Let's go home now. I'm feeling really tired," she said as she stood up and extend her arm, waiting for me to hold her hand.

I held it and said, "Alright, let's go."

I am now driving when suddenly I thought of a question I want to ask her.

"Chaeyoung-ah," I said.

She did not respond, so I glanced sideways to see that she is sleeping. Wow, she must have been really dead tired. I reached out my arm to hold her hand and squeeze it. Then, I thought of an idea what to do later.

We just reached home and she's still deep in her slumber. I turned off the engine and went to the passenger side and carried her all the way to our bedroom. I took off her shoes and laid her down on our bed. I also pulled up the blanket for her.

While she is sleeping, I decided to take advantage of it. I first washed up, then put on my underwear. I went to the vanity corner and sat on the chair facing the mirror. I stared at my reflection for the last time. Then I opened the drawer and grabbed the shaver and scissors.

I shaved my head just like what I did to Chaeyoung. I do not want to let her feel that she's alone in this battle. Even though it's clear that I've always been beside her, I always feel that it's not enough. I still feel her loneliness deep inside.

I stared at my reflection. I look like her now. I smiled with the contentment and exited the bedroom.

I climbed up the bed and lay beside her. I am watching her sleep when her eyes suddenly fly open. Her eyes are wide with shock as soon as she sees me.

"Love?" she said with her husky voice. She then reached out her hand to touch my head. "W-what have you done?" She seemed so speechless.

I smiled and said, "We're the same now." I let out an awkward laugh. "I just don't want you to be alone in this, which is why..." I touched my hairless head. "I shaved mine too."

A tear rolled down her cheek as she gave me a dimply but sad smile. "You shouldn't have done that, love. But I appreciate it. And, I love the new look on you. You're still so beautiful. I'm so lucky to be yours," she said.

I hugged her tight. We are both crying and laughing at the same time because of our looks. We're officially a bald couple, or you can say a hairless couple, so crazy in love.
