A Kiss In The Wilderness (TaengSic)

I See My Reflection

"How could you do this? Are you insane?" Yuri lunged at Jessica.

"Yuri calm down!" 

"Calm down? Are you with her on this? Are you all with her on this?" Yuri tried not to scream at her friends. But she was beyond upset.

"Yuri calm down please~" Tiffany tried coaxing Yuri.

It was very rare of Yuri to get mad. If she was, she will calmly talk it out with whoever was involved. Hearing Yuri's mad outburst after knowing that Jessica sent Taeyeon away troubled everyone.

"Yuri, we're not part of this.." Sooyoung spoke in an almost whisper, fearing that Yuri might take it out on her.

"Where did they take her? Where?" Yuri balled her fist. She would put up a fight if needed be, but she needs to be sane to be able to find Taeyeon.

"Up north" 

After hearing Jessica's answer, Yuri dashed out of their house and headed north. Tiffany ran after Yuri. 

"Why did you do it Sica?" Hyoyeon questioned the unfazed girl.

Jessica took in a few seconds before she responded. "For the goodness.." she paused. "of everyone's sake?" Jessica answered back unsurely.

"You mean Tiffany's?" Sooyoung threw back a question.

Ofcourse. Was what she wanted to say but she held it back. The look of her friends' faces made her think otherwise. Was it such a bad idea to send a stranger away so everything would be back to normal? I don't think so. Those words floated in her head trying to find a way to escape to her mouth but said otherwise.

"I'm sorry. I didn't thought it well. I was---"

"Blinded by non-existent hate." Sunny deadpanned.

"We know you're really hostile with words but you've never done this before. Acting without thinking. You're being ridiculous condemning someone you barely knew of and speak with. Are you in your right mind, Jess?" Hyoyeon casted her a serious look but Jessica's poker face didn't falter.

Am i? Have i really gone overboard this time? But she was a crying hot mess earlier after she realized what she did. Jessica battled with her thoughts.

"We understand where your disappointment comes from but what you did was just too much Jess. Please pull your shit together and reflect on it." Sunny pat Jessica's bum and faced their other friends. "Guys, let's hurry and catch up with them. I'm sure they haven't gotten far. We'll find Taeyeon fast if we split. Let's go?"

Yoona grabbed Seohyun's hand and started jogging in place."Right behind ya unnie~!" When Sunny and Sooyoung started running, Yoona dashed off draging Seohyun behind.

Hyoyeon was left to pair with Jessica but the girl was still frozen in her spot.

"Hello? Jess are you there?" Hyoyeon knocked Jessica's forehead which succesfully earned the girl's attention.

"What?" Jessica spat.

Hyoyeon raised a brow and eyed Jessica intensely. "Are you seriously not going to help with the search? That'd make you a horrible friend though i hope you wont be."

"I'm on it!"

Jessica started walking fast to the path the other girls went to. Hyoyeon caught up and jogged beside her. "Oh by the way Jess, prepare your 'Sorry' speech for later. So you know, it would be easy for Taeyeon and Yuri to forgive you. You know you were in all aspects wrong on this right? Please admit your sins and repent!" Hyoyeon dramatically conveyed each words.
