Trust Me

Winter's

I want to focus on the movie but I'm literally getting distracted by someone.

I mean, who is the only one getting my attention every time? No one other than Jimin Unnie. Why am I even beside her in the first place?

I was about to sit beside Aeri unnie earlier, but Jimin unnie called me and said she wanted me to sit next to her, so now we're here in this situation. I can't even say no to her. I hate myself for being so weak when it comes to her.

Now that she's torturing me by playing with my fingers on my lap and leaning her head on my shoulders, how am I supposed to understand the movie now? When all I think about is that she's so clingy and close to me, how can I focus when all I think about is her sweet cinnamon smell lingering in my nose right now?

I feel like I'm getting tortured because I just told Aeri-chan that I want to forget about my feelings for Jimin unnie, but it looks like she doesn't want me to move on from her at this point.

I'm looking directly at the movie, but there's no information getting processed in my head.

I quickly looked at her when I suddenly heard her faint whimper, like she's in pain somewhere.

"Are you okay, unnie?" I whispered, and now I'm totally distracted. I don't even care about the movie anymore; I only care about her well-being at the moment.

I don't want to be loud because my other members are still watching.

"Y-yeah, don't worry, I'm fine, Minjeong," she reassures me, but it's no use when her face says otherwise.

I looked at her hand, where she's massaging her side torso and on her lower back.

When I realized why she's having body pain, my eyes widened. It's because I bumped into her earlier; her body pain is more severe than mine because she caught me not to fall on the floor, so she fell instead.

I felt so guilty and bit my lip, trying not to worry too much for her.

I don't know how to relieve her pain right now, so I took her hand and intertwined it with mine, caressing it with my thumb because I wanted to soothe her pain a bit. After this movie, I'll take care of her. It's my fault anyway, so I need to take responsibility for it.

I felt her gaze on me, so I looked at her too. I don't know what's on her mind, but I still smiled at her and leaned my cheek to her forehead. She's still leaning towards me, so I feel like she became stunned by my gestures.

I know she's confused about why I suddenly became affectionate, unlike earlier, but this is just me wanting to soothe her pain for a moment while we're watching the movie. I really want her to rest, and I want to take care of her right away, but we're still watching the movie, and I don't want to kill the mood, so I'll wait for the movie to finish.

After the movie ends, we quickly stretch our bodies because of our long sitting on our sofa. I took a glance at Jimin unnie, who looked like she's grimaced because of her body ache.

After we ate our dinner, I helped Ningning to wash the dishes, this is also my chance to ask her a favor.

"Ningning, can we change rooms just for tonight?" I asked while we're doing the dishes.

I saw her forehead crease in my sudden favor, so she looked at me for a sec, then back to the dishes.

"For what, unnie? Like me and Karina unnie, will change rooms with you and Aeri unnie?" She asked, but I quickly shook my head.

"No, no! Just me and you, who'll change rooms for tonight," I clarified, so she became more suspicious of my intentions.

"Alright then." I was surprised when Ningning easily agreed, so I looked at her.

"I know you have your reasons, Winter unnie, so it's fine; it's just for tonight anyway" I feel like she wants to ask me about it, but she chose not to, so I'm glad.

"Thanks Ning" I said, smiling so she lightly bumped her arm to me so I did the same, until we laughed.

"You're concerned about her, right?" Ningning asked after we finished the dishes, so I looked at her. I didn't say anything and just smiled at her, and that's enough of my answer to her.

"Giselle unnie," I called her attention after I got inside our room and took some of my belongings just to bring to Jimin unnie and Ningning's room. Ning took some of her things to their room to bring here too. I don't know what she'll explain to Jimin unnie about why she's leaving their room, but it's up to her what she'll say.

"You're leaving?" she quickly asked me while I was getting my things from our room.

"Just for tonight, unnie, I need to take care of Jimin unnie; she's having some body aches because of me." She just nodded and said good night to me, but I know she's curious about what I'm talking about but didn't ask anymore.

"Good night Aeri unnie"
