Japan

Mina and Chaeyoung were embracing each other. The Japanese girl was leaning against the headboard of the bed, while the Korean girl clung to her, resting her head on the other girl's lap. Their legs were intertwined, and their naked bodies uncovered. There was no reason to pretend old modesties.

They lay there, still panting and with their bodies slick with sweat. This second time had been even better than the first; they were discovering new ways of pleasure: this time, in addition to their mouths, they discovered they could make good use of their hands to bring each other to climax.

It was wonderful and different from anything they could imagine. These discoveries made their experiences even more delicious. They felt as if there was a vast universe to explore, and it made them want each other even more.

"I was afraid I would never have you here with me again," Mina whispered, stroking her lover's short hair. "Of all the things that happened in the past few days, that was what hurt me the most."

"Forgive me, Mina, but I was very upset about everything that happened." Chaeyoung felt guilty for causing Mina that pain. "Inbok and I grew up together, he is one of the few people I have left." Mina found the tense the other girl was using strange. "But he didn't die, your mother ordered him killed, but he managed to escape."

"Wow," Mina said with sorrow. It was so horrible to imagine her mother asking to kill someone, but it was no longer surprising to her, unfortunately. "But it's good that he managed to escape, even though my mother was so cruel to him."

"She has always been cruel to all of us; it's just that before she tried to hide it from you," Chaeyoung explained, and Mina felt bad imagining how much she and the other Koreans had suffered without her noticing. "But we don't need to talk about that."

"Just answer me, please: how did you know he is alive?"

"He came looking for me; he came here during the night. He made a hole in the fence and managed to sneak in." Mina was startled by this.

"He made a hole in my house's fence?" she asked in amazement.

"I know it's not very noble, but he had no other option," Chaeyoung defended her friend.

"I understand, and I know it's all my fault, but, Chaeyoung, I don't know, I have some strange feelings about this guy," the Japanese girl began. She didn't know if it was just jealousy, but the idea of her girl hanging out with Inbok didn't please her at all. Knowing that the two had already kissed was another ingredient to fuel these feelings. "He likes you in another way, and you know that."

"I didn't know you were so... possessive," Chaeyoung said in a half-joking tone, letting out a giggle. "But I know how you feel; I also get jealous when I remember that you are committed to that Yoshiro. He is far away now, but in some time he will be back."

"There will be no more marriage; I was dishonored, Yoshiro will not accept me like this," Mina replied calmly, gently passing her right hand over the other's face.

"And if he does?" Mina gave a sad little laugh at that almost absurd question.

"He won't. No man would," Mina replied. "Not to mention that he will think I went to bed with another man, a Korean no less, which is unforgivable."

"If he knew it was with another woman, could he forgive?" That was a difficult question, which left Mina thoughtful, but probably her fiancé would not be so understanding.
