You're It For Me | Purinz

Chapter 2

Chaewon sat across from Yunjin in Red Velvet Cafe with a heavy silence accompanying them.

After that fiasco out in the park, Chaewon offered to buy Yunjin coffee as a thank you and to give her explanation.

She honestly didn't expect her to accept but here they were, sitting across from each other. An iced mocha for Chaewon and a chai latte for Yunjin.

"Thank you again, for helping me." Chaewon starts, eyes nervously flicking up to look at Yunjin. "I know I didn't give you much choice but I'm still thankful."

"How long has he's been bothering you?" Yunjin asks after a long moment. She takes a sip from her drink.

"More than a few weeks now."

"Then don't worry about it." the younger girl says.

Chaewon opens her mouth to say something but nothing comes out.

That heavy silence falls upon them once again.

Chaewon doesn't know what to do. It's been almost 3 years since Yunjin walked out of her apartment and walked out Chaewon's life. How exactly does one act around your ex when things were left like that?

"So how have you been?" Chaewon suddenly asks,  her mouth moving before her mind could even comprehend it.

Despite these confused feelings she holds for the raven haired girl sitting across from her, she's still rather curious to hear how her life is going for her from Yunjin herself.

If Yunjin's surprised that Chaewon asked, she doesn't show it. "I'm good. Quite busy but it's apart of the job."

Despite how much it hurts, Chaewon checks on Yunjin's career every once in a while. Her heart bursting at the seams when she sees how happy  the younger is on stage. When Yunjin debuted two years ago. Chaewon wanted to contact her to congratulate her on her debut.

But she didn't.

"How is it?" Chaewon asks.

A small smile makes it's way on Yunjin's face, she doesn't make eye contact with Chaewon though. Instead opting to look at her drink that's on the table. "It hasn't been easy but I think it's worth a while, you know? And I'm happy."

The smile on Yunjin's face paired with the softness in her voice tells Chaewon all she needs to know.

She's moved on.

Yunjin's moved on.

It was only natural, Chaewon thinks.

But it hurts more than she thought it would.

Silence settles between them before Yunjin clears her throat to gain Chaewon's attention.

"Look, I—" the younger is interrupted when the phone in her pocket starts vibrating, she quickly pulls it out and reads the screen. She sighs and gets ready to leave.

"I have to go." Yunjin says as she stands up.

Chaewon flails for a response. "Oh
uh—"

"It was nice seeing you again Chaewon. Really." she pauses for a moment before flashing her a small smile. "Good luck with school."

All the older could do was watch as Yunjin exited Red Velvet Cafe hurriedly.

A small part of Chaewon hoped then whisker dimpled girl would turn back.

She didn't

"An idol?" Chaewon asks with a furrowed brow.

Yunjin lets out a shaky sigh. "Y-yeah...I got scouted when I went to that GOT7 Fanmeet, and- I don't know, I think I'd really like to become an idol. Perform in front of an audience and all that." she finishes shyly.

Chaewon smiles brightly at her girlfriend then practically lunges at her for a hug, then starts peppering kisses across Yunjin's face. The younger girl giggles at Chaewon's actions but welcomes it nonetheless.

"That sounds great! I know you'd be an amazing idol, baby!" Chaewon gives Yunjin a tender kiss on the lips but pulls back before the younger has a chance to deepen it. She giggles at the pout on Yunjin's face.

"So, what exactly is the process?" she asks.

Yunjin beams then goes on tangent about what she has to do. From the auditioning to getting accepted as a trainee to actually training and hopefully and eventually debuting.

Chaewon can only nod and smile fondly as she watches Yunjin glow while explaining. It's as if she found a new purpose.

The brunette only hopes Yunjin achieves her dreams.
