"It's a shame you couldn't join us for breakfast earlier, Sky..." Rika said as she wiped her lips with a clean cloth. "But I hoped you enjoyed today's lunch."

"I do, it's actually been a while since I had a proper and delicious meal like this! Thank you, Rika." Before she realized what she called her, the blonde woman already replied.

"Sky, it's nothing. And you should thank Ray here, not me. Ain't he a good cook? I'm so proud with how this boy turned out to be." She smiled, what seemed genuine somehow, to the redhead boy sitting across Yoona.

She smiled shyly at Saeran, her thoughts immediately tangled up. There's a lot to talk about with him later. She didn't notice his serious and observing eyes fixated to her since she entered.

It was not a good start of the day for both of them.

"Right. I didn't get to ask you, Sky. What happened yesterday? I was so worried. I think my Savior was, too." Saeran sighed and finally asked Sky, his full attention to whatever she's about to say.

"Yes, indeed. Could you tell us about it?" Rika turned to Sky, sounding serious, too.

"I-it's really nothing important. Please don't worry anymore as you see I've been doing better..." '...Thanks, to you, Saeran.'

"If I could simplify it, I just got a little bit dizzy, headache and all. That's it." Yoona was unable to look at him as she knew very well that he had an idea of what really happened. She just hoped he wouldn't know as much.

"My only hope is for you to heal your wounds soon enough. And of course, don't forget to start on our project as soon as you can. You know what I mean, right, Sky?" Rika said and stood up first.

The younger girl nodded absentmindedly, her fingers tensed again and she hid it below the huge table. Saeran saw through her lip biting and his face once again filled with worry. He stood up immediately and kneeled beside Sky as soon as Savior left.

"Are you really sure you're okay? Yoona..." He held her cold, trembling hands and was shocked by it. "Your hands... what's wrong?"

"S-sorry... I-I even made you worry and take care of me..." She simply said, couldn't hide the hurt that she felt for hiding a lot of things to this precious, kind and lovely boy.

"Sky..." Saeran stood up and embraced her, patting her back lightly. "I'd do that again and again. So promise me to get all healed, okay?"

She nodded at his kindness and hugged him tighter, her tears immediately fell. 'He's such a sweet person... how could I even...'

"It doesn't matter what disease your hiding or anything. Just be fine always, and I'll be satisfied. I know, it must have been hard." Saeran made her looked at him with her teary violet eyes.

"From now on, call me when it gets tough. Call my name, Yoona. I'll be there." Then, he wiped her tears again. "... I love you."

She blinked a few times with what she heard. Her chest feels stuffed with colorful emotions again. It was a beautiful moment she'd want to save in her heart forever.
