HERSHE - SEULRENE

SR - Couch

Irene was drying her hair in front of the mirror when she noticed the reflection of a door from behind. It is the same room with hanging pictures before.

Curious, she went in, only to be surprised. Because even though nothing has changed in Seulgi's apartment, a lot has changed in this room.

All the pictures have been rearranged. There are also additional pictures from Seulgi's Haeundae and Bali trip. But above all that, what caught Irene's attention is the new picture frame in the center. It wasn't Joy's anymore. Joy's frame is now on the side. This time the picture is of a woman--although not looking at the camera--that has a heart-melting smile drawn on her face. The shot was taken in a beach-like background.

"Irene?"

Irene turned around and saw Seulgi already peeking from the door.

"Oh, um. The, uh, food is ready..." said Seulgi, looking embarrassed.

"What's this, Seulgi?"

"Umm, a picture... of you...?"

"And why do you have a picture of me hanging in here?"

Getting more embarrassed at the situation, Seulgi hugged Irene from behind around her waist and kissed the side of her head.

"Don't I have the right to put my girlfriend's picture in my room?"

Irene smiled as she looks back at her picture. "Since when was this displayed here?"

"Right after the Haeundae trip."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah. I can't resist putting that picture there. It is a perfect shot. I always love seeing your sweet smile. Always."

"And you always give me another reason to fall for you even more, huh?" Irene turned to Seulgi.

"Of course. Making you fall out of love is the last thing I have in mind. I just hope there won't be a need for me to change that picture again anymore."

Irene cupped Seulgi's face. "Don't worry, you won't."

After dinner (which was not boiled eggs), the couple settled on the couch to watch a romantic comedy film. Irene is sitting upright with Seulgi's head comfortably resting on her lap.

"Seulgi!"

Seulgi woke up after Irene jiggled her. "W-what?"

"Are you seriously going to sleep on me?"

"No, I'm not, I just--" Seulgi sat up. "Oh, I'm sorry. I was too tired. Plus, your hand on my head is very relaxing."

"If I'd known you're just going to sleep early, I should have gone home instead." Irene pouted.

Seulgi wrapped an arm around Irene. "No. I'm not going to sleep yet. We will stay up late watching movies, right?"

"Admit it. You just don't like the movie I picked."

"I-it's not that I don't like it," Seulgi reasoned out. "I was having a terrible headache earlier. I guess I felt relieved after you massaged my head."

Irene twitched her mouth in annoyance. "Are you feeling okay now?" she asked, bringing the back of her hand on Seulgi's forehead.

"Yeah. The power nap did the trick, and your massage."

"That's a relief." Irene dropped her hand, causing her big shirt to get pulled down low on one side.

"Oh. Sexy, huh..." said Seulgi, looking at her girlfriend's exposed shoulder and collarbone.
