Chapter 12

The way it had felt to Hyemi, for the first time, she had kissed someone. Not guy, but a girl. While she was sleeping.

She somehow felt weird about it, because she kissed Eunhi without her acknowledgement. She kissed her without her permission. Hyemi stared at her ceiling and thought, "did I do it right? I feel so bad now.." She stood up and walked to her desk.

Sitting down, she opened her books and began to read. Her fingers found thier way to her lips and she gently touched her lips. Why is she thinking about that again!? She didn't knew.

She shook off her thoughts and tried to concentrate. "This was a mistake. I won't do it again." She muttered as she took a deep breath and closed her eyes to feel concentrated towards her books.

-------

Eunhi slowly opened her eyes and looked around. She reached for her phone on the nightstand, but touched something else. She sat back, and realised she was covered with a blanket, not hers.. but Hyemi's.

She looked at the nightstand and found a packet of her favourite potato chips. Smiling, she picked it up and looked around. "Hyemi unnie got this for me?"

She got up from her bed and tied her hair up. She checked the time in her phone, 4:15 pm.

She had been sleeping for too long. Scratching her head, she walked out of the room and found Hyemi cooking something at the kitchen counter, slowly humming.

Smiling, Eunhi walked to Hyemi and putting her arms around her neck, she hugged her from behind. "Thank you for this, unnie!"

Hyemi flinched at this. She turned back to look at Eunhi and her cheeks flushed red. She nodded and looked into her eyes. "I- it's alright. I bought this for you."

Eunhi sat at the dining table and opened the packet of chips. She glanced at Hyemi, "what are you cooking?"

Hyemi answered without looking back, "I'm making japchae." Eunhi's eyes widened as she heard her. "I thought you only ate cup noodles." She muttered.

"Yeah, sometimes I make other dishes too. I'm not that lazy.." Hyemi said and Eunhi chuckled.

She placed the hot pot on the table and brought two bowls and chopsticks. She plopped down on her chair and said, "you try it first."

Eunhi smiled as she took out some from the pot and into her bowl. Hyemi observed her with hooded eyes. After Eunhi, Hyemi took out some japchae and told Eunhi, "there is some soju in the fridge. Would you mind?"

Eunhi looked at her. "I never tasted it. I don't know if I should.."

"Try it once. It's good." Hyemi said and walked to the refrigerator. She took out two bottles of soju and sat down.

She poured some for Eunhi and took the whole bottle herself. Eunhi started eating the japchae silently as Hyemi took shots of soju first.

"You should eat first." Eunhi eyed Hyemi.

"Yeah, I will." Hyemi placed the bottle beside her plate and started eating. "It's good. I like it." Eunhi smiled. "Thanks" Hyemi whispered.

After eating, Hyemi again picked up the bottle and drank the leftover soju in one shot. She eyed Eunhi, who was sitting awkwardly. "Drink it." She ordered.

"Okay." Eunhi said and took a shot. It made her feel anamalous. Blinking twice, she looked at Hyemi again. "Ca- can I have more?"

"Sure." Hyemi laughed as she poured some more for Eunhi.

Like this, Eunhi took almost eight shots of soju, while Hyemi drank another bottle.

Feeling nauseous, Eunhi stared here and there. Hyemi chuckled at her. "You know what, l like you." She muttered.

"Thank you." Eunhi smiled with a hiccup. "I like you too..unnie."

"You like me as a sister... I like you as someone else.." Hyemi whispered and Eunhi raised a brow at that.

"What?"

"No- nothing." Hyemi said as she picked up the dishes. "I'll wash them." Eunhi snatched them from Hyemi and placed them in the sink.

"Thanks." Hyemi said and they sat back again.

"Was that your blanket?" Eunhi asked as she pointed to her room. "Yes. I thought you were cold so I covered you up." Hyemi smiled.

"So sweet of you." Eunhi smiled and closed her eyes. "I'm going back to my room. I'm feeling unwell.." Eunhi said and stood up as she wobbly walked to her room.

She went inside and Hyemi got up too. "I should rest too. I think I overdosed." She walked to her room but turned around. "My blanket."

She went to Eunhi's room and saw Eunhi sitting on her bed, clutching her stomach. She ran to her and held her hand. "What happened?"

"I- I don't know.. I'm feeling strange. I think it's because of the soju.."

"I'm sorry.."

"Why are you sorry? I'll be alright." Eunhi smiled and Hyemi said, "I came to take my blanket back. Do you have another one?"

"Yes, in the wardrobe." Eunhi pointed and Hyemi got up. Taking out her blanket, she placed it at the corner of her bed.

"You'll feel alright soon. It's the effect of soju. Don't worry."

"Y- yes." Eunhi shivered and Hyemi placed her hand on her shoulder. "I shouldn't have offered you." She sat beside her.

"It's okay... I'll be fine." Eunhi smiled weakly as she looked into Hyemi's eyes.

"Yes you will.." Hyemi stared into her eyes. She scooted closer to Eunhi and stared at her. She felt that tingling sensation in her stomach again.

She looked at Eunhi's honey brown eyes, and then at her lips. She licked her lips as she brought her face near Eunhi's.

Eunhi was feeling dizzy. She didn't realised what was happening around her. She only saw Hyemi sitting next to her, smiling. She smiled back and closed her eyes. Hyemi thought it would work.

As Hyemi closed her eyes, her face was centimetres away from Eunhi's. She felt her hot breath brushing her nose. She was about to bring her lips closer when they heard a click behind them.

Hyemi shook her head and Eunhi fell back on the bed.

"Oops! Wrong window!" She turned around and saw someone clinging out of the window. Her eyes widened when she realised it was a man.

"Sorry!" The voice said and he moved up. "W- who are you?" Hyemi stood up and ran to the window, she opened it and glanced upward. But there was no one.

"I must be dreaming." She closed the window and looked back, where Eunhi was laying in her bed, unconscious.

"She fell asleep. Thank god we didn't-" she sighed and covered her with the blanket. Picking up her own, she walked out of Eunhi's room, closing the door behind her with a click.

--------

Eunhi opened her eyes again. Feeling a bit better, she checked the time. It was about six in the evening.

She yawned and got up. Walking out, she heard voices outside. She came out to see the front door open. Hyemi was nowhere to be seen.

"What happened? What is that noise?" She wore her slippers and ran outside to see a large crowd near the elevator.

She saw Hyemi in the crowd and she ran to her. "What happened Hyemi?"

"That girl tried to attempt suicide." She pointed to a girl sitting on a chair at a distance. The crowd was encircling her. "Why?" Eunhi's eyes widened.

"Don't know." Hyemi replied. "But I heard someone saved her."

"Who saved her?"

"It was a boy. No one saw his face. I heard them saying that she was about to jump from her window but he caught her in time."

"Oh that's good." Eunhi looked at the girl, who was staring at the floor while the Director of their dorm was sitting beside her.

"Why did you do that? You could've died because of your stupidity!" He spit out.

"I'm sorry.. I was lost." She said with tears in her eyes. "Don't attempt to do this ever again. You were lucky that he saved you in time!" He rubbed her back. She nodded.

"Everyone in this dorm, please listen to me." He turned around to face the crowd. "Don't ever attempt this. Your life is precious. Not for you, but for your loved ones too. If you ever feel lost or depressed, talk to us and we'll help you out. Suicide is not a solution. Understand?"

Everyone nodded and he signalled them to go back to their rooms. Eunhi and Hyemi came back to their room.

"That was dangerous." Eunhi muttered and Hyemi laughed. "You will see a lot of drama here. I spent three years here and I'm used to it now."

"Oh" that's all Eunhi said.

"Well, are you feeling good now?"

"Yes, much better. I'm not used to drink." Eunhi scratched the back of her neck.

"You will get used to it." Hyemi said. "Now, let's prepare for dinner. Shall we?"

Eunhi smiled, "yeah."

-------

After having dinner, Eunhi went back to her room, wishing good night to Hyemi.

This time, she locked her door and changed her clothes. Sitting in bed again, she sighed, "my first day was wonderful. I hope to spend more happy days in the future." She smiled to herself.

After using her phone for some time, she checked the time. 9:45 pm.

Eunhi got up and packed her nqg for tomorrow. She arranged her dress too. Everything was done.

She glanced at her ring. "I was thinking of asking for his number, but the situations got worse and I didn't got the chance."

She removed the ring and placed it in the drawer.

Laying on her back, she sank in her thoughts. "Who could it be? How did he knew she was going to jump?"

She turned around and looked at her window. "Was there someone here at that time? I don't remember..." She tired hard to think but she couldn't.

"The last time I remember, Hyemi was really close to me-" suddenly she got up and her mouth dropped.

"Wait, did she..." She gulped.

"I like you.."

"You like me as a sister, I like you as someone else.."

Eunhi's heart started beating faster as she recalled the events.

"She was really close to me at that time.... Did she, tried to kiss-" she said but shook her head. "No no! That's not possible. I think that was a dream."

She shook her head and laid down again. Still feeling something strange about Hyemi, but she refused to admit that Hyemi could do something like that to her.

"I should sleep now. Tomorrow is my first day of college." Eunhi took a deep breath and closed her eyes shut.

It didn't took her long to fall into sleep. She always fell asleep sooner. On the other hand, Hyemi was still up, sitting on her desk, studying.

"I shouldn't repeat anything. I will distance myself from now on." She sighed and got up.

Walking to her bed, she took off her glasses and rubbed her eyes. It was a tough day.

"Hope these remaining six days go well too. I don't want to create any drama." She sighed and closed her eyes.
