"what meaning is left of the fallen planet's remaining life. i'll receive it til i die, your stifling stare. i still orbit you, and nothings changed. if love has no name, everything has changed." - 134340 by bts
chapter seventeen ʚ ✮ ɞ
yunjin's eyes widened as she took in the stunning scenery before her; the walls were adorned with vibrant paintings of each planet, the ceiling had been a deep blue sprinkled with stars and constellations, and the floor a sleek black marble flecked with delicate golden specs.
"hello, guys!" greeted a worker named jimin, her smile beaming as she held on tightly to her clipboard. her hair was a long black, delicately cascading around her frame—and she was beyond beautiful; one of the most beautiful women yunjin had ever seen, besides chaewon of course. her voice was much deeper than yunjin had anticipated, sending electric shocks through her spine. "welcome to yu's planetarium, how can i assist you two today?"
chaewon smiled softly, "i have an appointment for a private showcase, it should be under kim chaewon." as chaewon finished the extra details that went into getting into said showcase—yunjin's curiosity got the best of her. she let her feet wander over to the section of the wall dedicated to pluto. she liked that, despite it being well forgotten by many people; it was still shown to it's extreme celestial beauty here.
she let her fingers delicately run across the textured paint, her face scrunching due to the uplifted texture. her eyes examined the beauty of pluto—not many people knew but it was her favorite planet. however with good memories, come bad memories as well. it was the planet her father dedicated to her when she was just a child. she smiled fondly at the memory, "just because it was forgotten, doesn't mean it didn't leave its mark. don't forget that yunjin, just because someone forgets you—doesn't mean they've forgotten the mark you've left on them."
a slight frown danced across her lips as the trip down memory lane deepened, she missed what used to be between them. that once loving, soft spoken man, who she would claim as her hero—now nothing mere than a shadow of fear that washed over her. she was scared of him, so scared.
yunjin's thoughts were interrupted as chaewon gently approached, her eyes soft as she noticed the change in yunjin's demeanor. "are you okay?" chaewon asked softly, worry lacing her tone. yunjin hummed and forced a smile, though it didn't quite reach her eyes. "yeah, i'm fine. i'm just...reminiscing i guess." she shrugged, earning a nod from chaewon.
"so, pluto." chaewon started, "what's so special about it?"
yunjin frowned, "what do you mean?" she asked, clearly confused at the question chaewon asked. chaewon gently let her fingers run across the uneven paint, "i see the way you're looking at it, what's so special about it?"
