None of the two could actually close an eye. Jiwoo wanted to cuddle with Sooyoung so badly, but she didn't have the guts to ask.

Sooyoung just wanted to enjoy the moment. She had millions of fake scenarios in her head, with how Jiwoo will tell her that she's in love with her.

So, until 2 am, they both stayed silent and kept their backs at each other. Jiwoo got sick of pretending to be asleep, so she spoke up:

"Hey, Sooyoung. Are you asleep?" She whispered.

Sooyoung was shocked that the younger wasn't sleeping yet.

"No. I can't fall asleep." Sooyoung said as she turned around to the other girl.

Jiwoo did the same. Their eyes met, thanks to the strong light of the moon.

"So, what do we do?" Jiwoo asked as she kept on looking into Sooyoung's eyes.

"I don't know. What do you want to do?" Sooyoung asked the younger.

"I sincerely want to cuddle." Jiwoo said, without realizing.

As the younger heard her own words, she opened her eyes wide. She couldn't believe what she just said. She wanted to melt away from existence.

Sooyoung was happy to hear what Jiwoo wanted, so she came closer to the younger and tapped her arm.

"Your wish shall be my command." Sooyoung said with a smile.

Jiwoo cuddled next to Sooyoung and easily fell asleep right after. I guess the warmth of Sooyoung's body helped the younger to calm down.

***

It had been over a week since Sooyoung and Jiwoo have been acting like an old couple.

They would go on long walks, holding hands. They would get lunch together everyday. And they would buy small gifts for each other. It was perfect.

Sooyoung hasn't set foot in the manga shop for almost a month now. Nobody knows anything about Vivi. She hasn't been to work since the day she was rejected by her crush.

***

It was a not so cold, yet not so hot day. Sooyoung was in the spot that Jiwoo showed her some time ago. She called the younger to meet there at 3 pm.

It was 2:53 pm, and Sooyoung was freaking out.

"What if she won't show up? What if something would have happened to her?" Sooyoung thought out loud.

"Unnie, don't worry. Nothing happened to me." Jiwoo said as she made her way to the older.

"Oh, uh. That's good to hear." Sooyoung said agitated, letting out an awkward laugh.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Jiwoo asked as she got next to the latter.

Sooyoung took a deep breath and she looked straight into Jiwoo's eyes. There was no way she could back out now.

She pulled from behind her back a bouquet of lavender. She took Jiwoo's hands into her own, which made the younger look at her with a shocked expression.

"I've been meaning to ask you this thing for quite a long while, and only now I could gather up my courage to do it." Sooyoung started.

"Kim Jiwoo, will you be my girlfriend?"
