IX LAMIA

CH. IX

HEADS UP: This chapter talks about religion and being gay in the past. I included some parts of like harsh things being done to people who were gay in the past but I am not saying these things actually happened in the past. Since you guys have already been reading this far, I assume all of you are pretty open-minded. Just a heads up because I don't want to offend anyone or make anyone uncomfortable. I'm an overthinker so that's why I had to do this lol.

MINA POV

I walked inside her room, leaving the door only slightly open.

"I wanted to talk about what happened today," I said

"What about today?" she said coldly, still not breaking her gaze from the outside.

"Are you ok?" I asked

She scoffs before answering. "You were the one that got kicked and slapped, and yet you're asking me if I'm ok?"

"You hurt someone," I said. "A human. And Jihyo told me you haven't hurt a human since she did E.T. on you. Which according to her were centuries ago. So what? Why did you do it?"

"You're really asking why?" she said sternly

"Yes. Because you shouldn't ever do something you don't want to do because of me!"

"And how do you know I didn't want to do that?"

"Because! I see that you would never want to hurt an innocent human!"

"You don't know anything about me!" she shouted as she finally turned around to face me. "And don't you dare, label that girl as innocent! She hurt you for no reason!" she said, I can tell she was in the early stages of anger.

"There was a reason! She was jealous!"

"And that gives her the right to hurt you?! Are you stupid?!" she shouted angrily.

"Why do you that? One second you're nice to me, and then the other second, you become cold and mean to me."

"You want to know why?!" she shouted as she approached me. "It's because each time I look at you, I think of Luna!" she yelled as she was now standing inches away from me. "Every time I look at you, I just want to kiss you, to hold you, to touch you! But I can't! Because you're not her! And you will never be her! Every moment I spend with you reminds me of that fact that she's gone! That the only person who ever understood me and made my miserable life better in this damned world is gone!" she yelled passionately. I can also now see that a tear was forming in her eyes.

I was taken aback by her sudden confession.

"I'm sorry" was all I could say at that moment.

She closed her eyes and a tear falls down her cheek. She turns back and raises her right arm to her face to wipe off the tear.

"Just go," she said quietly this time.

I was standing there frozen. I was still shocked by everything when luckily Sana called out from outside the room which snapped me out of my shock.

Sana then took me to her room so that I could calm down after what happened.

We both sat on her bed.

"Don't use her words against her. Her calling you stupid was for sure from all the anger that was boiling up in her" she said softly

"I know" I replied. "I just don't know how to be around her anymore. I have this frustrating and odd desire to want to be with her but each time I am with her, she gets hurts because I remind her of Luna."

"What you're feeling isn't odd" she smiled

"What do you mean?" I asked her

"I assume you know that the only people in this house beside Tzuyu who has experienced imprinting are me and Dahyun?" she said
