Precious Love

String

"So, this your plan? Letting her go?" Jihyo raised an eyebrow at Nayeon who is laughing as she watch Jeongyeon trying to imitate Mina. 

"Who says I'm letting her go?" Nayeon grinned.

"You're not?"

"I'm not and I won't. I told you I love her and I won't give her up unless she told me so" Nayeon said with a small smile on her face.

"What are you doing then? You seemed so fine and so calm about how close Jeongyeon and Mina are." Jihyo was happy that it seems like things are getting better but she can't help but get worried for Nayeon who seems to be giving up her happiness.

"I'm doing my job as her bestfriend. I should support her in whatever she wanted to do. Be there for her whenever she needs me. I just realized that what Jeongyeon needed right now is a bestfriend. Someone who she can talk to without any hesitation. She's been through alot and it's because of me. This is the least thing I can do for her. And besides, if she's really happy with Mina who am I to oppose?" Jihyo can see the sincerity in Nayeon's eyes. She really mean everything that she said.

"Jihyo..." Nayeon called making sure she got all of Jihyo's attention.

"Hmm?"

"Stop carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. Let the other members of the student council do some work. Clear your schedules after school. Let your Vice President Chou Tzuyu and the others handle everything today" Nayeon gave her a genuine smile.

"Tzuyu is still young she shouldn't work much." Jihyo said worried.

"Young? She even got a hot girlfriend and we are here both single" Both of them laughed.

"But really, You should take some time off. Tzuyu might be young but she's responsible enough. Besides, Tzuyu have been wanting to help you along time ago but you always rejected it. She felt useless as the Vice President. Give her some work" 

"Fine. Where are we going anyways?" 

"Karaoke." Nayeon winked.

Momo knows that Nayeon, Jeongyeon and Jihyo will hangout after school which means Tzuyu as the Vice President, will replace Jihyo for the meantime. Momo really wanted to talk to Tzuyu and this is the only time she knows that she can talk to her. Sana and Mina were already home. She drove them home and lied that she forgot something in school. 

"Tzuyu.." Momo called as she entered the office. She's right, Tzuyu was the only one there. During this time, the other student council members are roaming around the school making sure that all the students left already.

"Hey.." Tzuyu said not bothering to look at her and keep on doing the paper works.

"I just wanted to say sorry. I know you think that I'm selfish and spoiled brat but I want you to know that not because I don't take care of Mina the way you or others did means that I don't really care about her." Momo said sincerely.

"I know" Tzuyu said still not looking at her.

"I know this might be too much but, Can I ask you some questions?" Tzuyu raised an eyebrow getting curious of what Momo might want to know from her.

"Don't worry. Just a few questions." Momo defended herself before Tzuyu could say anything.

"Okay" Tzuyu said as she divert her attention to Momo.

"I...I just wanted to know what did you like about Sana?. I-I mean you are both different. Sana isn't the best lover either, we both know how flirt she is. I-I.. What I meant was, Sana is the best friend you'll ever had but as a lover.." Momo tried her best not to sound offending but she's just too nervous and can't find more appropriate words.

"We are different. That's what I like about us. We complement each other. We complete each other" Tzuyu wasn't sure of what's going on in Momo's mind but what she knows is that, Momo might be trying to find something that will urge her to stop running away from fate.

"Yes, Sana is a flirt. She wink at them, she says sweet things, she iniciate skinship but when it comes to me, she's different. That flirt and smooth talker Sana that you are talking is nowhere to be found whenever she's with me. She can't talk, she stutter so much. She keeps on having second thoughts on how she wrap her arms around me. Those things made me realized that she must've love me so much that she wants everything to be perfect" Tzuyu said smiling. Momo can see how Tzuyu's cold expressionless eyes shined bright whenever she talks about Sana.

"Aren't you afraid that you might hurt each other? That what if in the end it didn't work? You might lose each other" Momo unknowingly said all of her worries. Tzuyu isn't as fast as Mina in thinking or analyzing the situation. She doesn't really have a clue on what's going on Momo's mind all that she knows is that she needs to convince Momo in the most subtle way as possible to confess to Mina before it's too late.

Tzuyu knows that Mina is already falling in love with Jeongyeon. She can see it in her eyes and in her smiles. It's not that she doesn't want Jeong for Mina but in fact, she does like Jeongyeon for Mina rather than Momo. But she wasn't the one to choose and Tzuyu knows that Momo will always be Mina's choice.

"Pain is part of love. All you can do is to choose if you will use it as your strength or as your weakness" Tzuyu said as she look at Momo wondering what is she planning but that blank stare from Momo just confirmed that Momo does wants to confess but too worried.

"I know you are here to find out Mina unnie's answers to your questions. Yes, we have alot of similarities but we are also different. I can say anything I wanted to say but Mina unnie on the other hand, won't say anything unless you ask her" Tzuyu said placing a hand on Momo's shoulders.

"Just ask her directly. If you are afraid on what might happen just think of this, aren't you risking everything more if you just ignore it?"

"Are you sure you are going to be okay?" Jeongyeon asked full of worries.

"Jeongyeonie, I'm going to be fine. Stop worrying about me and have fun with Jihyo and Nayeon unnie. You've been taking care of me alot lately and I think you need a break. No need to be worried." Mina said as she pinched Jeongyeon's nose playfully.

"What do you mean no need to be worried? You've been doing well but this time you'll be alone with her. You might end up crawling back to her." Jeongyeon whined. Mina chuckled but she knows that what Jeongyeon have said is true.

"I can't help it you know. It feels like there's a string connected to us. With just one pull, I'm back to her again." Mina hated this, Momo is just her ultimate weakness. She admit, she's moving on and Jeongyeon helped her alot. She doesn't want Jeongyeon's effort gone to waste but everytime Momo does something she can't help but fall for her again.

"Mina" Jeongyeon called and trapped Mina between her and the lockers. Mina looked up shyly. 

"J-Jeongyeonie.." 

"That string you are talking about...perhaps it might be red?" Jeongyeon teasingly said. Mina just looked down and hugged her. Hiding her red as tomato face.

"Just tell me, I'm willing to break that string"
