Come Rain or Shine

Fortune favours the bold

"When we sneaked out the after-party for the play, everyone was drunk. We walked, held our shoes, hand in hand, even though the sand was super cold, but it was so good to feel the sand on your foot. and we enjoyed the cold breeze together. I remember you were so beautiful. You still are. But that night, you were so beautiful"

Mina shed tears.

Both of them are silent.

"I miss you Minari, am I being selfish if I want to see you?"

****

Without thinking twice, Mina hung up. Mina just grabbed her coat and took a taxi from her apartment.

Mina arrived at Music Factory, ran taking the side stairs just like she used to, up to Chaeyoung's apartment.

Dahyun who's just arrived with Eunwoo looked at her taking the stairs, she let her and got into her coffee shop.

"Dahyun-ah!" Someone then calls for her, from that table.

Dahyun can't help but widen her eyes.

"Channie Oppa!" Dahyun trembled when Chan called for her.

Dahyun comes to the table.

"Hello, Dahyun-ah!"

"Oh, Jihyo Eonnie! Why are you guys doing here?"

"Slow jazz, I wanted to see the band"

"Oh," Dahyun's heart beats so fast.

"Ah, I just remember. Chaeyoungie lived up there right? She's using your old apartment! Is she here, we should hang out!" Jihyo said.

"SHE'S NOT!" Dahyun almost screams when Jihyo asks that question, "I mean, she's at our recording studio in Apgujeong all day, she might spend the night there" Dahyun said panicky.

"Ah too bad," Chan said.

"Ye.......Yes, too bad" Dahyun scratches her hair.

Mina knocks on her apartment door.

"Wait a minute" A voice from inside greets her.

Chaeyoung opens her door and is surprised. Someone is at her door.

Her heart is beating faster than usual.

She pulls Mina in, closes the door and she hugs her. Hugs her so tight.

She holds Mina in her embrace.

Mina releases herself from the hug, looking at Chaeyoung while caressing her face, looking at her eyes.

And then she closes her eyes and kisses her. Everything seems to stop right now, everything doesn't matter anymore except themselves. They can't even hear the slow music Chaeyoung played from his computer.

Chaeyoung felt it, Chaeyoung felt an instant fear. She's afraid that she can't stop herself now. But Mina seems so sure, Mina seems fearless, unlike her cowardly heart. She took a breath and let herself go tumbling.

Their tongues dancing in sync, their body moves around towards the room. Chaeyung lifted Mina at the table, just beside her keyboard, she's now trapping her, using her hands to support her bent body and Mina still caressed her cheeks. Mina spread her leg so that Chaeyoung could move closer.

5 minutes later, Chaeyoung stops while holding her cheek with her right hand. Mina circling her hand around Chaeyoung's neck, both foreheads and noses meet while both also panting from their previous engagement. Both taking a breath slowly, they aren't ready to open their eyes yet.
