That Girl Minjeong : The Problems In Between

Hurt

Jimin wakes up to a slight headache and no sight of Minjeong nearby. Usually Minjeong would've been near her, sleeping like a baby.

She got up, and headed towards the bathroom for a quick shower.

Afterwards, Making her way to the kitchen, she grabbed some medicine from the cabinet and heard the door to the apartment unlock open before she popped two pills in her mouth.

"Where were you?" Jimin watched the younger girl walk in, drenched in sweat, worn out.

"A morning run." The girl simply said and walked into the bathroom, shutting the door behind her.

The bath tub was running which only meant one thing to Karina.

"Baby are you okay?" And after a few seconds of silence, a loud thud and the sound of water splashing made her heart drop.

"Minjeong!" She twisted the doorknob only to find that it was locked.

She panicked, her heart racing as if it was about to explode. The feeling of worries filling the pit of her stomach as she runs to the room to grab her credit card from her bag.

She ran back to the bathroom door, yelling Minjeong's name once again hoping that there would be an answer but there wasn't a single voice heard.

She frantically jacked the door open as a river of tears stream down her cheeks, unable to speak at the sight of Minjeong inside of the bathtub unconscious.

Bringing the girl out of the tub and onto the ground where she was still unconscious, she tried waking her up but it didn't work.

The only thing she could do was call for the ambulance.

A few hours later Minjeong's eyes hazily flutter open to sounds of a beeping machine and an IV stuck into her arm.

She looked at her arm, seeing another hand grab onto her when trailing her eyes to look at Karina, beside her sleeping.

And it doesn't take Karina long to realize Minjeong was conscious again. The moment she set eyes on the younger girl, her eyes well up with tears.

"Jimin.." without any words, she jumps into Minjeong's arms holding on tight without letting go.

Karina cried. Pretty sure the entire hospital heard her. It didn't matter.

But the a million of emotions Minjeong was feeling were overwhelming. Seeing Jimin cry her eyes out hurt Minjeong just as much as anything.

Without looking at Jimin, holding the tears the younger one had in her eyes. She couldn't look at her, it'll just make her weak.

A couples hours past and Karina was silent the way home, no conversations with winter, just the sound of the car on the road and the sighs Jimin let out once in awhile.

Then finally the younger girl opened her mouth.

"Ji-"

"What's wrong Winter?" She snapped back before winter could even start. "You're not okay."

Minjeong hated to admit it but it was true. She realized it herself as well.

"Why do you keep things to yourself? You just fainted this morning, do you know how worried I was?" She complained.

"I'm here to help too." Karina put a hand over her chest.

"So stop hiding your problems."

Silence passed by with nothing but a tense atmosphere.

"I just didn't eat this morning, that's all." Winter sulked.

"And why is that?"

And just like that, Winter feels a rush of pressure, fear wash over her. She had to tell her the truth, yet she refused to.

She didn't even want to let go yet.

"Jimin, can we talk when we get home?" Tired and weak, winter let's put a distressed sigh that worried Jimin.

The words itself triggered some type of emotion in the older girl. As if she knew something terrible was about to happen.
