Chapter 21

----------------------------------------------------------
Lisa wasn't sure what to start with, there was so much that she could say about her younger sister, the memories that came flooding back to her seemed beautiful however each one was saddening as she knew that she wouldn't be able to make another memory with Yeri, like the old ones.

"She loved butterflies," Lisa whispered, shifting slightly so that she was facing Rosé more.

"And princesses so I used to call her my butterfly princess," The younger girl paused for a moment.

"If she woke up during the night, she would come to my room and I would tell her a story about the butterfly princess and sing to her as well and then she would go back to sleep. I don't even remember the last time that I told her a butterfly princess story," Lisa said, her voice catching in her throat again.

"It's okay, carry on," Rosé encouraged, kissing Lisa's temple.

"One summer, we went to the park and there was a small pond there, really not that deep but Yeri fell in and she was a very theatrical little kid, so I jumped in and carried her out and for the rest of the summer break she called me her superhero. Because I saved her. She stopped calling me that, though. I don't know why," The black haired said, taking in a deep breath.

"She wanted to become a ballerina when she was younger as well, and also a police woman. I told her she could be whatever she wanted to be, and I would play games with her where I'd pretend to be the bad guy and she would arrest me," Lisa said, laughing slightly at the memory.

"She would have to let me out off the fake prison, though, because it would be dinner time," Lisa laughed again. "She was such a messy eater," She giggled, turning onto her side so that she was facing Rosé completely.

"What are you staring at?" Lisa asked.

"A very beautiful girl," Rosé whispered, closing the gap between the two girls and kissing Lisa gently.

"Lili?" The older girl asked.

"Yeah?"

"I love you," Rosé smiled, quickly kissing Lisa again and smiling happily.

"I love you too," Lisa replied, resting her head on Rosé's shoulder and closing her eyes.

"Tell me more," The older girl said, running a hand through Lisa's hair.

"She was very pretty, beautiful, astonishing," The black haired spoke, her eyes still shut. "Her smile would always make me smile and that also happened with her laugh. It was infectious, and she knew when I was sad so would make me laugh," Lisa paused briefly.

"Oh yeah! And for about the first six months of her life, I called her fluffy because I wanted a cat more than a sister," This final story made Rosé smile the most because Lisa truly laughed at the memory.

"I think I want to sleep for a bit," Lisa mumbled, slowly sliding out from under the cover.

"Where are you going?" Rosé asked, reaching for Lisa's hand.

"To bed," The younger girl replied.

"No, stay here, please," Rosé pouted, pulling Lisa back down onto the bed. "I still have some work to do but I'll just have my laptop," Rosé said, quickly grabbing her laptop then going back under the cover with Lisa who was quick to lean against the older girls body as she felt very weak and tired.

After about ten minutes of silence, Lisa spoke up again. "She never got to experience love," The black haired whispered, feeling her eyes beginning to water as she gripped onto Rosé's hand. "She didn't get to know the feeling you get when you're in love with someone. How they're constantly on your mind and always make your heart flutter and your pulse pound so heavily..." Lisa slowly trailed off as she realised all the things that Yeri never got to do or try or experience.
