Who Really Are You?

Real or Not?

The real one said,
".....to be honest, I love the soft moonlight more than the starlight."

Minju woke up, not with blinding lights directly at her, rather it's a cozy feeling of warm blankets and familiar pillows.

She looked around to see where she is.

'My room?'

The pictures of her friends were on the study table. It's also snowing outside. It's winter already yet she never noticed.

'Why am I here?'

"Minju." A low voice greeted her amidst her thoughts and saw Heejin, casually leaning into the door frame with a small smile, cup of what probably is hot chocolate on her hand.

"Want some? I can ask Hyunjin to do you some."

Minju was still confused if this is still a dream like what happened to her before or is this really her being back on their shared apartment.

She doesn't know. But she wasn't complaining.

"Can I get a hug instead?" Heejin's smile faltered but soon regained it as she placed the cup into the study table.

She then went into Minju's bed and hugged the girl tightly, making Minju sigh in content at the familiar arms around her.

She certainly missed this. Her and her friends cuddling every chance they can especially Yerim and Jiwoo.

Her thoughts immediately went back into the other interns.

'Are they the one who sent me here? Is Chaewon okay? Is she still mad?'

Remembering what happened already causes her head to ache again and seems like Heejin felt her shivering that she pulled away and looked at her in worry.

"Are you cold? Do you need anything?"

"I am fine Heekkie. Just...who brought me here? Did they told you what happened? Is Chaewon still mad at me?"

Minju felt Heejin shift, her eyes looking anywhere else than Minju's own.

Minju doesn't know where this came from, the awkwardness between Chaewon and her friends.

But she knew THEY knew them. They are probably messing up with her that single time they told her they don't know the interns.

The silence made Minju worried though. Heejin seems like she doesn't know what to say, which leads Minju asking unto why the interns and her childhood friends were this awkward when in fact, they had already interacted before.

But thank the heavens that Heejin nodded, although timidly so, still did.

Minju sighed. She really can't change Chaewon's mind, can't she.

She knew the words she threw over her friends were bad and straight off rude as well but judging Yujin were plain rude and mean as well.

"What even happened with....them, Minju-ah?"

Minju sighed for the nth time. Even though it still hurts just by thinking, she knew Heejin deserves an explanation as well. She worry too much over Minju as well and it'll be better to ease that even a bit.

"They were all being judgemental about a patient. Yujin. They keep on saying how bad Yujin is for me where in fact, they haven't given her a chance to show them just how much of a kid she is. She is innocent, Heejin. She doesn't deserve everything they are thinking."

Heejin sighed, face crest-fallen.

"So, you fought with them?"

Minju furrowed her brows at that. That's certainly not the right word. They aren't fighting, it's just a little misunderstanding that'll be solved soon. It just needed a little time, but they'll be alright.
