Paper Hearts「2Shin」

Petty.

Graduation day was inching closer and closer and so was their college entrance exams. Ryujin and Yuna haven't been able to spend much time together due to extra classes and night classes. Even if they do hang out, they only cuddle to sleep as they get too tired after a long day in school.

This also resulted in them getting into fights over the smallest things. Just the week before, they had fought because Yuna didn't like how close Ryujin's classmate was.

"You allowed it."

Ryujin sighed, one hand ruffling her own hair while the other placed on her hip, her frustration was etched on her face. "What did I allow?"

"You allowed her to be all flirty! She literally was flirting with you by nudging your shoulder with her shoulder!"

"Don't overexaggerate now, Yuna." Yuna huffed. She had nothing else to say and it seemed like Ryujin didn't want to talk about it either so she grabbed her bag and left Ryujin's house.

Most of the time, it's Yuna getting jealous but Ryujin always knows how to coax the sulking Yuna. However this time, it's Ryujin getting jealous. Granted, they haven't had the chance to actually enjoy their quality time together and sometimes, they aren't able to update each other about their daily lives but Ryujin hadn't expected it to be at the point where she doesn't even know who Yuna befriended anymore.

"You okay?" Yuna asked, slightly furrowing her brows. She noticed the older girl had been acting weird, her texting tone seemed cold, her replies were all short, she barely responded to Yuna. It made the younger girl a bit bothered.

"Hm?"

"I asked if you were okay...?"

"Hm."

"Alright," Yuna slams her novel down onto the bed and faced Ryujin who seemed to pretend to be busy on her phone, obviously trying her best to not look at the younger girl. "I've had enough."

Ryujin scrolled through Instagram, trying to pay no mind to the girl in front of her.

"Talk, Ryujin." Hearing her government name from Yuna, her eyes darts to the younger girl. Her heart clenching in pain for some reason, she was really hurt this time.

Or maybe, she just had a fragile ego.

"Who was that girl?" Ryujin asked after awhile of silence. Her voice sounded so upset, Yuna noted that she sounded more upset than the day she thought Yuna had left her for good. It can't be good, can it?

"What are you talking about?" Her brows furrowed when Ryujin went to tap on her phone screen and held her phone up to Yuna's line of sight. It was a picture of her hugging and holding onto Eunchae's waist. Yuna sighed inwardly.

"Okay, I'm sorry for hugging her and holding her like that. We were just laughing about and it came naturally to me." Yuna settled back next to Ryujin, the older girl only avoided her gaze and attempts of physical contact. "Ryujin, I'm sorry."

"You never let me in anymore these days." It came out as a whisper but Yuna heard it loud and clear. She can't help but feel hurt. She was so sure that she had been trying her best to keep the relationship afloat despite both of their hectic schedules now that exam season was just around the corner. Was she not doing enough?

"What do you mean? I text and call you whenever I can't visit. I try to update you every day."

"Hm."

"Ryu, say something. I try my best to come over every day to keep you accompanied. You can't seem to possibly think I'd have the time to be unfaithful?"
