Jiwon: Jahoon? May I come in?

I didn't say anything but just continued to lay on my bed with my back facing the door. I hugged the teddy bear I was holding tighter to me in an attempt not to make any crying sounds for Jiwon to hear. I heard the door open up and closed again right after, indicating that Jiwon had walked inside. I felt the bed sinking down a bit beside me and her hand slowly caressing my hair.

Jiwon: I heard everything that happened between you and Haewon. I'm sorry that you had to experience all of this once again. I really thought that Haewon was better than that.... Jahoon... Please talk to me or at least look at me... I can stand to see my baby sister like this.

I just kept lying there for a while but of course, I knew Jiwon better than anyone. She wouldn't leave anyone, especially me, alone until she was 1000% sure that the other person was okay. I wiped my tears away and sat up in the bed while facing her.

Jiwon: Oh god...

Jiwon wrapped her arms around me and pulled me close to her while rubbing my back. All of the tears that I had built up before just spilled out. Jiwon was the only one that was available to get that kind of reaction out of me.

Jiwon: Just cry it all out... just let it all out... unnie is here for you...

It all went on for a while until I didn't have any tears left in my eyes. I pulled away from her and was about to wipe the rest of my tears again on my sleeve until Jiwon stopped me and grabbed a tissue and wiped them away for me.

Jiwon: You still have your bad habit. Unnie is sorry that she wasn't there to protect you. Both from Yujin and Haewon.

Jahoon: It isn't your fault, unnie. It's my fault for trusting people so easily.

Jiwon: And it's my fault for judging people too early and for trusting other people too fast. I trusted Haewon too much since we had known her for a long time and doubted Yujin too much to oversee how much she actually cares for you and how much she tried to prove herself to me and to everyone how she wasn't like how the rumors said she was. She came by our home every day to try and talk to you but I always stopped her... I have been so disrespectful towards her.

Jahoon: It wasn't your fault either unnie. You only did all of that to protect me and I know that Haewon and Yujin would be thinking the same.

Jiwon: But still I didn't do it the right way making my precious little sister have to fell some tears and have to get on bad terms with two other people who just loved you, probably just at much as me.

Jiwon looked away from me, probably blaming herself for everything. I grabbed her hands making her look at me again.

Jahoon: You did everything you could possibly do. Everything that people would call an amazing sister would do. But to me, you are more than an amazing sister. You are my hero unnie and I'm beyond the world of happiness that I have you as my sister. I couldn't wish for anyone else.

Jiwon: Oh Jahoon...

Jiwon wrapped her arms tight around me and soon after she was the one who cried. I smiled lightly and wrapped my arms around her while patting her back. Whenever you feel like you have fallen down and there is no way back, family is always there to help you back up. No matter what.
