Best Friends | Newjeans : Minji x Hanni

Chapter 23

The new day brings only joy and happiness for the couple much to their delight.

And freshly out from the bath, Minji was busy helping Hanni dry her hair, blowing it with a dryer.

*Fwuu....Fwuuu....Fwuu...

Minji then strokes some of Hanni's hair away, giving her access to look at all the numerous hickeys from last night. She gently pats on it, as her heart flutter, proudly looking at them.

*Cough....Cough....

"Are you okay?" Minji asks in panic.

"Ugh! My throat is a little dry." Hanni hoarsely replies, and later becomes gloomy.

"I will bring you water, wait for me a bit." Minji said as she leans closer, planting a soft kiss on Hanni's fluffy cheek and proceeds to fetch the water.

"Okay." Hanni replies as she smiles touching her cheek where Minji has kissed.

But her happy moment was ruined as soon as she sees the messy floor, being piled up with their clothes and other things, "Hmm~ Should i clean up? The room is in a mess..." Hanni thought to herself and decides to clean it up.

While she was busy going through the mess, she came across Minji's handbag and proceeds to put it until a mysterious box falls out from the handbag along with a luxurious decorated envelope.

"Oh? What is this?" Hanni asks herself as she tries to read what was written in the paper until a shocked and worried Minji arrives, almost dropping the glass of water in the process.

"DO-DON'T SEE THAT RIGHT NOW!!!" Minji anxiously shouts as she tries to reach for the little box and envelope from Hanni's hand.

But Hanni easily dodges it as she proceeds to open the little box, "But what is it?"

Hanni instantly freezes at the sight of two beautiful paired rings majestically carved by a well-known Goldsmith of Ireland.

"DO-DON'T TELL ME, THIS IS!? Waaa~" Hanni exclaimed in wonder and excitement.

Minji quickly covers up her embarrassed face, which was as red a tomato, "I....I wanted to give it to you in a more nicer way...later..." Said Minji, stuttering non-stop.

Hanni places the envelope near her lips, and in a serious voice , "Uhh, can i read the letter?" She calmly asks, but deep down, her consciousness was doing back flips and acting crazy XD

"Ye-Yes."

"Hold the ring." Hanni commands.

Minji could only nods at the request as she continues to look at the empty floor, feeling so shy and defeated.

Hanni then opens up the envelope,

( HANNI,

You have had a hard time because of my stubbornness, right? From now on, i want to fill your life with happy things. Just trust me, and i will make you the happiest woman in the world. Since the first time we met and even until now.
                 I love you forever!

                                      -Minji- )

Hanni was in tears after reading Minji's letter, as she re-read the entire paragraph over and over again with happiness.

"Hanni, would you liked to be marked by me?" Minji asks and she shows her the rings as her serious gaze was fixed on the still shocked Hanni.

But, Minji clearly knows what her answer would be and continues to put the ring on Hanni's finger, "I will protect you forever. I'll take care of you more than anyone else."
