Chapter 15

"Chaechae!" The six year old shakes her sister's shoulder violently, attempting to wake her up but never works. 10 minutes have passed and Chaewon was still not getting up.

"Jiwoo, your sister might throw up on your face if you continue that." Yunjin jokes but Jiwoo didn't take it as a joke, her eyes widening and lets go of her sister's shoulder. Chaewon groaned and placed the palm on her forehead, feeling a bit dizzy not realizing that Yunjin stayed, that she had slept almost the whole day and skipped lunch.

"Eww." Jiwoo shook her head rapidly and jumped off the bed, running out of Chaewon's room to get away from her sister, thinking that Chaewon would throw up on her. Yunjin laughed, leaning backwards as she does so. She almost lost balance but Chaewon quickly caught her and pulled her back properly on top of the bed.

"Careful." Chaewon laughs and shook her head in amusement. Yunjin smiles sheepishly.

"You didn't stutter." Yunjin pointed out and Chaewon nodded her head. "You're improving." Yunjin grinned and crawled next to Chaewon who shrugged, playing with her own fingers.

"You...l-looked mess-messing with m...my sister?" Chaewon asked, laughing softly.

"Maybe...but not in a bad way, she's just cute I want to pinch her cheeks." Yunjin smiled widely. "I think cute runs in your family." Chaewon shrugged.

"Or m-maybe i...it's bec-because you find a l-lo-lot of things cu..cute." Yunjin chuckled, leaning in to give a peck on Chaewon's lips.

"Maybe," Yunjin shrugged. "But you're on top of the list." Chaewon smiles, a blush rised on her cheeks.

"You hungry?" Yunjin asked after a comfortable silence. Chaewon cocked an eyebrow and checks the time, her eyes widening.

"Ab...absolutely." Chaewon nodded as her stomach growled in hunger, loud enough for Yunjin to hear. Yunjin laughed and Chaewon smacked the girl's shoulder playfully before she runs out of the room to eat. She bumps into Jiwoo as she walked towards the kitchen, the little girl still afraid that her sister would throw up on her so she squealed and ran up the stairs, closing the door of her bedroom once she was inside. Chaewon laughed and turned around to face Yunjin, crossing her arms. "Now my si-sister is sc-scared of me be-because of yooou!" Chaewon huffed and pointed accusingly at Yunjin who raised both of her hands in surrender.

"I didn't know she would really take it seriously okay!" Yunjin defended herself and placed both of her hands back down. Chaewon playfully glared at her, Yunjin played along and acted as if she was scared.

"Well, t-tell her I-I won't th-throw up in her f-face!" Chaewon narrowed her eyes, at Yunjin before heading inside the kitchen, greeting her mom. Yunjin trailed behind the girl and saw Ranhee smaking Chaewon's shoulder, scolding her to get down from the counter table. Chaewon obeyed but laughs, kissing her mom's cheek and grabbed a banana.

"What was that?" Yunjin asked, the pair heading back to Chaewon's room when they realized that dinner wasn't ready yet. Ranhee had invited Yunjin for dinner and Yunjin gratefully accepted the offer.

Chaewon stopped in front of Jiwoo's room instead of her's and gestures to talk to Jiwoo, ignoring Yunjin's question. "Fine..." Yunjin muttered and knocked on the door before heading inside while waited outside the room.

A few minutes had passed and Jiwoo opened the door of her room, hugging Chaewon's legs because of her height. "Chaechae! Jenjen said that you won't throw up in my face anymore." Jiwoo happily told her and Chaewon laughed, carrying her sister.

"I would n-never!" Chaewon shook her head, smiling widely. Yunjin smiled at the sight watching as the two sisters interact just like what she did this morning.
