Ryujin sat cross-legged on her bed, her eyes following Yeji as she played with her childhood teddy bear. The small, worn toy had been a source of comfort for Ryujin during many nights, and seeing Yeji gently handling it brought a soft smile to her face. Yeji's fingers traced the bear's frayed edges, her expression a mix of curiosity and affection.

"Do you like him?" Ryujin asked, her voice tender.

Yeji looked up, her eyes bright with interest. "I do, but it's your toy, Ryujin. I just wanted to see it up close."

Ryujin's smile widened. "You can have him if you want, Yeji. Just don't hurt him, okay?"

Yeji's eyes widened in surprise and she climbed up onto the bed, sitting beside Ryujin. She held the teddy bear close, then looked at Ryujin with a playful yet serious expression. "Let's take care of him instead, like our actual child."

Ryujin's cheeks flushed a deep red at Yeji's words, her heart skipping a beat. "You want to?"

Yeji nodded earnestly, a smile playing on her lips. "Yes, I want to. We can take care of him together."

Ryujin chuckled softly, her eyes filled with affection. She reached out and gently tucked a strand of Yeji's hair behind her ear. "Alright, we'll take care of him together."

Yeji's smile widened, and she nestled the teddy bear between them, wrapping her arms around it as if it were a precious treasure. Ryujin couldn't help but be enchanted by Yeji's pure and childlike enthusiasm. She leaned in closer, her voice soft and filled with love.

"You're so cute, Yeji. I love seeing this side of you."

Yeji blushed, her cheeks turning a light shade of pink. "I just... I love being with you, Ryujin. You make me feel safe and happy."

Ryujin's heart swelled with warmth, and she couldn't resist pulling Yeji into a gentle embrace. "You make me feel the same way. I'm so lucky to have you."

They sat there, holding the teddy bear together, their heads resting against each other. The room was filled with a comfortable silence, the kind that only comes from being with someone you truly love. Ryujin's mind wandered to the future, imagining a life where she and Yeji took care of each other and shared countless more moments like this.

Yeji pulled back slightly, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "You know, Ryujin, you look really attractive when you're being all caring and sweet."

Ryujin laughed, a playful glint in her eyes. "Oh, really? Are you saying I'm not always attractive?"

Yeji shook her head, her smile widening. "No, you're always attractive. But when you're like this, it's even more irresistible."

Ryujin felt a surge of confidence, and she decided to play along. She leaned in closer, her lips almost brushing against Yeji's ear. "Well, if that's the case, then I guess I'll have to be sweet and caring more often."

Yeji shivered at the closeness, her heart racing. "I wouldn't mind that at all."

Ryujin pulled back, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Good. Because I plan on taking care of you and our little teddy bear for a long time."

As they lay together, the cozy silence between them was filled with warmth and affection. Yeji, still holding the teddy bear, looked up at Ryujin, her eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and vulnerability.

"Ryujin, have you ever thought about having kids?" Yeji asked, her voice soft and tentative.

Ryujin's cheeks flushed a deep red at the unexpected question. "Wait, what?" she stammered, caught off guard.
