____________♧ZIA POV♧____________
-

"Zia!" Iris ran to her friend in a hurry.

On the other hand, Zia pretended not to hear her friend's calls and proceeded running quickly through the hunting air that she adored running in even if it was too cold for her own good.

Iris was never a good runner and that she knew but Zia always managed to make fun of her laziness even as being younger than her. Iris didn't mind for she viewed Zia as her younger sister that she couldn't have.

"Z-Zia....." her breath was so loud for running a long-distance "please...stop!"

Zia chucked loudly teasing her but stopped, in the end, catching her breath too. "W-why are y-you so slow!" She barely managed to catch her nagging breath while feeling her fast hearing heart.

The distance was still long for Iris to catch on with Zia but Iris managed to go over, catching Zia in a deep hug that stumbled them both into the mud.

Zia looked at their gross-looking clothes and started to laugh hysterically at their awful positions.

"My leg!!!!!" Shouted Iris painfully trying to remove the pressure of Zia's body on her legs but couldn't for she was also laughing as well as crying painfully, it was a mess.

Zia finally nodded with tears in her eyes from the constant laughing "Ok- ok!" She said while catching her breath.

"Ow! Be careful! That's my precious leg!" Nagged iris threateningly trying to look as upset as possible but failing miserably.

Rolling her beautiful sapphire-blue eyes, Zia stood up from the mess they were tangled in. "So why were you following me?" She asked suspiciously knowing too well her friend never liked to go on runs in the early morning.

Avoiding her eyes, Iris didn't know how to start "Oh"

"Yeah oh,"

Crossing her hands in a questioning manner, Zia stood looking at her friend deeply.

"See, your aunt told me to"

"I knew!"

Standing up too, Iris started tidying up her clothes in a hurrying manner wanting too bad to go home and sleep.

"So why do you sneak out if you know too well your aunt will get suspicious?"

"Because-" she started twisting her hair in a nervous way.

"Hm?"

"I just- i- I LIKE TO!" she finally shouted.

"But you know too well your aunt prevented you from going out did you?"

"I know but-"

"But what? See, I know you want to explore the world like you claim to. I also know it's weird how protective your aunt is about you! But you're dragging me into this! And I just want to sleep peacefully!" Iris whined covering her ears from the cold stomping her feet angrily.

"I know.....I'm sorry" Zia looked defeated lowering her head showing apology.

"No no....don't be sorry for me! I didn't mean to snap on you but its 21st December and early morning so I'm dying from the cold! But for real....I don't understand why she's so protective but obey her okay? She knows better."
