The Story of Us | Chaerlia

5

Both of the girls were still in Chaeryeong's parents house. Right now, Lia was helping Chaeryeong with some of the lessons that they had. Well of course they help each other, it's just that Chaeryeong needs more understanding.

"So that's how it works baby, you just need to add it all up together and then divided it to the number if sets it has" Lia explained and Chaeryeong nodded

"Thank you, I wouldn't be able to figure any of these without you" Chaeryeong said and pouted

"And that's why I'm here with you and besides, you help me with our Japanese classes anyways" Lia said and both of them chuckled

As they were still studying, someone knocked on Chaeryeong's room door.

"Hey you two, eomma made some snacks and told me to give it to you two" Chaeyeon said and placed it on the study table

"Thank you unnie" Chaeryeong said with a smile

"No problem oh and also, eomma said we can eat outside later. Appa's treat" Chaeyeon said and the two nodded with a smile. Chaeyeon then left and went downstairs.

"What's this?" Lia asked

"Oh, it's Korean pancakes, eomma shapes it like that" Chaeryeong said and chuckled

"Ohh, I want to try one" Lia said and Chaeryeong got one and fed it gently to Lia.

"So?" Chaeryeong asked

"Now I know who taught you to cook" Lia said and chuckled

"It's delicious" Lia said and it made Chaeryeong chuckle

"Eomma taught me and Chaeyeon unnie ever since we were little. I enjoyed being in the kitchen a lot" Chaeryeong said and Lia nodded

They continued to study until it was already evening and time to eat outside.

"Girls~ your appa is home now!" they heard so of course, Chaesis went running down the stairs to greet their appa.

"Hi appa!" they said in unison and gave him a hug.

"Hello girls" he said and chuckled. By that time, Lia also went down

"Hello Lee appa" Lia said

"Oh hi Lia, did you and Chaeryeong went here together?" he asked as soon as Chaesis moved away from his

"Nae" Lia said and Mr. Lee chuckled and ruffled the girl's hair.

"It's like you two are inseperable, anyways, go and get ready we don't want to be late for dinner" Mr. Lee said and the girls nodded.

They went off to change and right after that, Mr. Lee drove them all to the place where they'll be eating which was at the nearby park.

Chaeryeong's family owns a small area at that park and Mr. Lee would always treat them on the weekends for some meet and a little bit of beer.

Chaeryeong loves that place, she likes how the wind feels there and the lights around the park. When she and Lia were dating, they went there several times since Lia asked Mr. and Mrs. Lee about the places that Chaeryeong loves to go to.

When they arrived, Chaeryeong immediately ran towards the area and opened up the lights. It shined brightly and it made Chaeryeong smile. Mr. Lee and Mrs. Lee were carrying some bags so Lia helped them with it while Chaeyeon was preparing the grill.

"Why don't you two go and look around the park, we'll set up and grills some meat" Mrs. Lee said

"Okay eomma" Chaeryeong said. She held Lia's hand and they walked around the park as her mother said.

"You really love it here" Lia said

"Mhm, remember that I told you I grew up with going here almost every weekend. It's like a whole playground to me" Chaeryeong said and Lia nodded

"You told me you and your sister would play tag and then when you got tired your parents would buy you some ice cream" Lia said and both of them chuckled.

"I want like you, me, Yeji unnie, and Yuna to hang out together. Oh and of course Ryujin" Chaeryeong said

"Doesn't Ryujin have a girlfriend yet?" Lia asked Chaeryeong

"She told me she's working on it. Maybe she'll get someone soon" Chaeryeong said and Lia nodded

Soon after, they got back and the food was already ready for them to eat. They definitely enjoyed it since Mr. and Mrs. Lee talked about how they met and it made the girls squeal and also laugh.

"Too bad Sakura unnie isn't here" Chaeryeong said

"It's okay, she's kind of busy this week. Her parents are teaching her about their company" Chaeyeon said and they nodded

"So, how about we go to the mall tomorrow?" Mrs. Lee asked

"I'm good with it" Chaeyeon said

"Me too!" Chaeryeong said

"How about you baby?" Chaeryeong asked Lia

"I'm fine with it as well" Lia said and smiled

"So we can go out tomorrow. Oh and darling, don't forget the movie tickets for tomorrow" Mrs. Lee said to her husband

"Don't worry, I got it arranged already" Mr. Lee said and Mrs. Lee nodded

The girls chuckled at how Mr. and Mrs. Lee interacted.

Lia only wished if her parents were like that as well. Not too strict and judgemental about others, especially to their daughter.

"Are you okay?" Chaeryeong softly asked Lia, noticing the older's face

"I'm fine baby, don't worry about me" Lia said and smiled

"Are you sure?" Chaeryeong asked and Lia nodded once again.

They all went back to the Lee's house but as soon as Lia got in Chaeryeong's room, her phone rang.

:::::

"Hello?"

"You better come here this instant young lady, where were you?!"

"It's none of your business mom"

"I'm your mother and it's my business to know where you are. Don't tell me you're with that Chaeryeong girl again"

"I stayed at their place okay? what else do you want?"

"You better come home tonight or else me and your father win't let you be with Chaeryeong again"

Lia knew she had no choice. Her parents were super strict.

"Fine, give me 30 minutes or so and I'll be there"

"Good"

::::::

Lia sighed and put her phone in her pocket.

"Who was it?" Chaeryeong asked

"It was mom, she wants me to go home" Lia said and looked at the younger

"Oh.... so you'll be leaving now?" Chaeryeong asked her sadly

"I'm sorry baby, but you know I have to or else they won't let me see you anymore" Lia said and hugged the younger.

"Why can't your parents just accept me? accept us?" Chaeryeong asked the older

"I'll figure it out okay my baby? but now I really need to go because I don't want them to get mad and add you to our problem" Lia said and Chaeryeong nodded

"I'll see you on Monday at school okay? text me if ever you need anything" Lia said and kissed the younger's forehead

"I will" Chaeryeong said and chuckled

"I love you, I'll be off now" Lia said and pecked the younger's lips.

Lia went down and bid goodbye to Chaeryeong's parents and sister. She hopped on a bus and went off back home.
