The rays from the sun shone over Yoona’s face. She was slowly waking up; only realized that her face was so up close with Jessica’s. She smiled as she caressed Jessica’s cheeks but they were wet. Yoona frowned when she realized Jessica cried in her sleep. She sighed softly. She got up slowly and pulled the blanket over Jessica neatly.
Yoona washed up quickly and prepared breakfast for Jessica. She swiftly moved around the kitchen; when suddenly she heard Jessica whimpered in her sleep. Yoona put her things down and ran towards the older girl; Jessica’s hands were wandering around in panic state.
“Shh, Sica, I’m here.”
Yoona pulled the girl closer into her embrace. Jessica’s face was squeezed to her chest. And the girl mumbled softly which annoyed Yoona a lot.
“Yuri.. Yuri.. don’t leave me.”
Yoona bit her tongue hard. If she had the choice to lash out at Yuri, she would but she couldn’t. Yoona knew how much Yuri means to Jessica. If she were to fight with Yuri, Jessica would get hurt. She didn’t want to lose Jessica just like that.
“No, I won’t leave. I’ll never leave you. Go back to sleep, Princess.”
She whispered softly into Jessica’s ears and she could feel Jessica’s body grew limp. She relaxed in Yoona’s arms and the younger girl carefully put her down on the bed. She kissed Jessica’s forehead before grudgingly walk back to the kitchen.
Her heart ached so badly that Yoona punched the kitchen top hard on her knuckles. Yuri might be her best friend but Yoona had endured for far too long. It was so unfair to Jessica that Yuri turned her back on her the moment Tiffany returned. If she had knew Yuri was going to do this, she wouldn’t give Jessica up neither would she force Yuri to return to Jessica’s side.
“Shit!”
Yoona noticed blood on her knuckles and she quickly washed it away. She couldn’t let Jessica see. She hissed in pain when her knuckles moved. They hurt like hell.
“Damn it! I punched too hard. Stupid Yoona!”
She tried to massage her knuckles but they soon turned blue black. Yoona cursed at herself but gave up halfway. She couldn’t hide the bruises so she would cook up some excuses later if Jessica asks. But her eyes went up to Jessica again. That poor girl – Yuri hurt her for so many times but she still could forgive Yuri easily. She did that because she couldn’t stand being without Yuri. And Yoona hates that.
“Sica, why are you so stupid?”
Yoona mumbled to herself but at the end of the day, Yoona knew she was even stupider than Jessica. She could just sweep in and steal Jessica away from Yuri but she didn’t have the courage to do that. She tried after Yuri broke up with Jessica but watching Jessica withering like a dead flower without Yuri; Yoona knew she didn’t have a chance to be with the older girl.
So she just told herself to be there for Jessica. She would be there for her regardless what happened. She made a promise to herself that she would be Jessica’s angel for as long as she could. She would pick up the fallen pieces of Jessica’s broken heart and put them back together.
She could do that again and again. As for now, Yoona lives for Jessica’s smile.
Suddenly Jessica’s phone rang. The sleeping girl quickly got up and grabbed the phone from the table. Yoona sighed. She just kept quiet and continued with making breakfast.
“Yuri..”
Yoona’s heart ached when Jessica was calling Yuri’s name lovingly.
“I just got up. Are you okay?”
