as fate would have it - winrina

chapter two

It was already morning and her alarm was uncomfortably loud. The blonde girl stirs up from her bed and slowly moves to reach out. On a normal morning, Minjeong would get grumpy and accidentally throw her alarm clock. But today was different. She blindly picks up her alarm clock and turns it off.

Yes, today was different.

As she slowly opened her eyes, she was greeted by the sun's rays from her window. Even though she didn't get much sleep and drank quite a bit last night, she feels good.

Everything was good.

Better even if she wants to emphasize it more.

Why?

All because of a certain older raven-haired girl.

Yoo Jimin .

The older girl was the last thing she thought of before going to sleep, and now, she was still the first thing the blonde girl thought of when she woke up. She unconsciously smiles while reminiscing the beautiful smile of the goddess.

She slowly remembers everything that had happened last night, from her random outburst of confidence and her rescuing the older girl up to that sweet but intense kiss they shared. Her hands slowly touch her lips and slightly bit it, savoring the feeling as she remembers how soft Jimin's lips were and how much she can't get enough of it.

Holy crap, I really kissed her .

Minjeong felt everything was too surreal to be true. She was clearly out of character last night.

Or was she?

Usually, Minjeong is a bit guarded, especially in front of strangers. She tends to show a different side of hers, a "cool" side if we follow Ningning's words. It's not that she's plastic to other people, she's only careful. She knows how humans can be very complicated and manipulative, so she tries to be guarded to the people she doesn't know and shows her true self only to deserving people.

But Jimin was different.

Yes, they met in a weird circumstance, but the raven-haired girl was already quite intriguing from the start. There was something about her that was warm and welcoming. She was drawn to her. Unlike other people, Minjeong didn't feel the need to show her other side and just be herself. She likes it.

She likes it very much.

Her thoughts were soon interrupted when she heard her phone ring. She checked it out and it was an unknown number. She should be alarmed by this but her gut tells her otherwise. Indeed, it was the older girl who just texted her.

Unknown number (8:15 am): Good morning. 🙂 This is Jimin, by the way. Just in case you have forgotten about me, hehe

Minjeong (8:15 am): Good morning to you too, beautiful. 😊 How could I ever forget about you? You were all I could think about.

Jimin (8:16 am): 😳 Too sweet, lol. It's still so early in the morning, Minjeong-ah. Hahahah. Have you eaten yet?

Minjeong (8:17 am): Hahahahaha, 😅 sorry about that. Actually, I just woke up. I'll grab some breakfast soon.

The blonde girl immediately got up from her bed and went out to the kitchen to grab some food, only to be cornered by her little roommate who's looking at her warily.

"You went home late."

"I did."

"Where were you?" Minjeong opened their fridge and grabbed some fresh milk, "I was still at the club."
