"I... I-I...."

"It's a surprise to see you here. Did you come here to find me?", Minjeong smiled while shoving Jimim a small pack of gummy bears.

It was Minjeong's favourite.

"Y-You work here?", Jimin asked, still confused with the whole situation. She didn't saw Minjeong inside this store since 30 minutes ago, and now this girl suddenly appeared behind her out of nowhere.

"Yeah. I just time-in. The moment I came here, I saw you at the eating counter, watching the raindrops in deep thoughts", Minjeong answered.

Minjeong looks so calm, but Jimin wasn't. She freak out the moment she saw Minjeong right infront of her, and now talking to her like they've never fought before.

"I'm surprised that you found me~", Minjeong smiled.

"I'm also surprised...", Jimin didn't react much, still in her panic state and double speed heartbeats.

"I saw, you wearing that bracelet", Minjeong eyes looking at the bracelet around Jimin's wrist. The bracelet Minjeong gave her the moment she left Seoul.

"Yeah... it's from you, and I know I need to wear it", Jimin tried to look somewhere else, trying to hide her redden cheek from showing. This was so damn embarrassing.

"Who you came with? And where is your hotel for the night?", Minjeong asked as she take her seat right next to Jimin. Jimin gasped by the sudden act, but didn't try anything to stop the younger girl. She liked it so much.

Finally she can meet Minjeong.

"I came alone, and you see...", Jimin pointing at her luggage at her left.

"I didn't have a room yet for the---"

"Are you crazy!", suddenly Minjeong shouted and it succeed making Jimin shock. But Minjeong eyes tell otherwise. Her eyes is full of concern.

"Did someone hurt you? I mean... did someone disturb you on the way here? You are all alone and---"

Minje9ng words was stopped when suddenly Jimin held one of her hands tightly, justassuring the younger girl that her journey was going on safely, but maybe not smoothly.

"I'm fine Minjeong. Don't worry~", Jimin smiled and Minjeong couldn't help from smiling back.

"Ning told me you came here to find me. What happened?", Minjeong asking, just straight to the point. Now that she do know that Jimin knew about hwr feelings to the older girl after Ning told her, there's nothing much to hide anymore.

Minjeong can be herself, towards Jimin.

"I... I just need... to meet you...", Jimin answered with her eyes down.

"Why?"

"I just need to meet you, so I can find peace...", Jimin answered softly.

"Peace? In me? There's Aeri and Ning with you"

"I know. But, without you... I couldn't help myself. It's suffocating...", Jimin answered shyly.

Eyes looking at only Jimin, Minjeong eyes was just full of love and care. She was head over heels for this girls infront of her and knowing that there's nothing she need to worry about anymore was a grace.

And Jimin saw it. How Minjeong looking at her. How one of their hand still holding tight into each other. How Minjeong rubbing her thumb softly on her hands. How Minjeong smiled towards her like she tried to say everything between them was perfectly fine.

"Hey, Minjeong...."

"Yeah?"

"Do you... still love me....?", Jimin asked even tho her eyes couldn't looking staright into Minjeong. It was an embarrassing question, but Jimin wan to know so bad about it. Minjeong just smiled happily, lifting up Jimin's hand inside her hold up.

"See this bracelet? It was perfectly fine", Minjeong said.

"Just because I take care of it like it was my own life?", Jimin asked.

"No. It's because my feelings was still there, Yu Jimin", Minjeong smiled.

"You wasn't mad at me anymore?", Jimin asked remembering how bad they fought once and it ended up by Jimin slapping Minjeong on the face.

"No. Why should I? Maybe I was angry for a moment. But only crazy will be mad for so long to the person they love the most"

Looking at how soft Minjeong talk to her, her hand still holding tight with hers, her eyes looking at her full of love, Jimin was sure enough that Minjeong told her the truth.

Just in a flash, Jimin move forward crashing her body into the younger girl for a hug. Tiny sobs can be heard but glad enough there's only two of them inside th store. Minjeong patted the older girls back for comfort, and this is the first time she could feel how warm Yu Jimin is inside her embrace.

"I missed you so much...", Jimin said thru her sobs.

"You did?"

"I was so scared the day you left. I thought you hate me. I thought you don't want to see me anymore..."

"Who said that?"

"Don't leave me again, please... I beg you....", Jimin hold onto the younger girl become tighter and oh god, Minjeong feels like crying. Did the decision she made 3 months ago was a mistake? Maybe it was a good escape way for Minjeong, but not for Jimin.

Did she hurt Jimin in those 3 months?

"I'm sorry that I left...", Minjeong replied. Jimin then pulled her head away without releasing the hug and the distance between their face was just inches and Minjeong can see the glimmering from the tears on Jimin's face.

"Tell me you won't leave me again", Jimin asked, somehow in a bit instructing tone.

"But I need to work here, and study", Minjeong answered and Jimin can just sigh with the answer. Minjeong wasn't lying tho. Her nighy shifts continues every weekend and her study as usual on weekdays.

"Then don't disappear again!", Jimin said.

"I won't cuz now you found me~", Minjeong answered slyly.

"But Minjeong, this isn't helping me much. I still feel like I lost you and it still suffocates me. I need to hear about you every single day! Only that way will make my heart and mind in peace", Jimin still sobbing, but somehow it become a lil bit funny and cute and Minjeong couldn't hell from laughing a little.

"But I might be busy and you might be uncomfortable to talk to me everyday", Minjeong scoffed.

"Then be my girlfriend!"

It was silence for Minjeong. Eyes widen in shock, bit Jimin looking at her intensely. Jimin was dead serious with her words and Minjeong don't know what to do. She was speechless.

Did her crush, just ask her to be her girlfriend?

"W-What?"

"Be my girlfriend, Minjeong! Only that way you'll have the commitment to talk to me every single day. You'll try your best to meet me in your free times and soon enough be comfortable with me!"

"B-But, Jimin... Relationship needs feelings---"

"I did have--- f-feelings for you!"

Minjeong was silent again. Not in a single day she received full of surprises. Meeting Jimin all of sudden, Jimin asking her to be her girlfriend and now Jimin told her she have feelings for her?

"You are insane, Yu Jimin....", it just slipped out from Minjeong's mouth.

"You said you still loved me and I can't find any reason for you to protest. For me to find peace in my mind, hearts, including my own mental health, the only solution is to talk to you every single day and I don't find any other sol---"

"You are insane...", Minjeong still in disbelief. Even tho they still hugging each other but Jimin words just hits her so damn hard.

Not that your now 6 years crush finally want you for their life.

"Minjeong, I beg you....", but Minjeong still keeping her silence.

After taking her own time, Minjeong finally looking at Jimin calmly but eyes full of love and care. Jimin still looking at her with her teary eyes, but her eyes speak no other than truth. Minjeong finally letting out a tiny smile.

"You won't regret with your decision?", Minjeong asking just to make sure.

"The only thing I regret was slapping you months ago...", Jimin replied.

"You're dead serious about this?"

"I might even kill myself if you say no!"

"and if I say yes?", Minjeong smirk leaving Jimin now in silence. Eyes looking straight into Minjeong as the younger girl coming closer towards her face.

"Then, I didn't regret for having a crush on you for 6 years...", Minjeong said as she finally got to taste how soft Jimin lips on hers for the first time. The lips that once a playgirl and a crazy sociopath once claimed was now hers. The beautiful girl infront of her was held so close inside her embrace.

It felt so surreal. That this girl, was finally hers. Minjeong never wish it to happen, but it happened.

They pull apart for a moment. Forehead leaning on each other as eyes looking deep into each other full of love. Minjeong smiled for a moment before Jimin suddenly circling her arms around the younger girl's neck.

"Just... don't leave me again or else I'll die in misery...", Jimin whispered before closing in the gap for another sweet kiss and pecks. Both of them smiling thru the kisses and sometime couldn't help from being passionate.

"I love you, Yu Jimin...", Minjeong whispers thru the kisses as she sucking Jimin's lower lips gently. Jimin laugh a lil bit and they pulled apart for a second again.

"You can sleep at my apartment tonight"

"Great. Cuz I ran out of money for hotels"
