Chaeryeong took a deep sigh and went out of her car. She walked towards the door on the other side to open it for the younger. She already send the other girls on their homes and only her and Yuna were left now.

"Thanks, Unnie". The taller woman muttered as Chaeryeong opened the door for her. She went out of Chaeryeong's car after receiving a nods from the older.

"Seems like Dad and Mom were already home too". Yuna spoke as she saw her Dad's car parked on the garage.

"They're probably done with their businesses". Chaeryeong replied and threw a little smile before entering their house. The younger soon followed after her.

"Finally you two are here". A deep voice coming from a man interrupted the two girls who was about to go upstairs.

"Let's have a dinner now". He said and the two girls just nodded. The three of them took the way to the kitchen and arrived at the table. Yuna and Chaeryeong sat next to each other as Chaeryeong's dad sat beside Yuna's mom.

"Where did you go this time?". Chaeryeong's dad asks while preparing his foods. The girls exchanged a look for a second and turned back to the couple on their front.

"We just went to the Amusement Park, Dad". Yuna replied because she knew Chaeryeong won't answer him.

"Glad to know that you two are having fun".

Yuna smiled in response. They all continued to eat and as usual, no one dared to talk. Only the sounds of spoons making in contact with the plate can be heard by each of them.

Chaeryeong's dad cleared his throat, causing all of them to look at him. "Monday is coming". His gaze turned to Chaeryeong while the girl looked back at him. "I'm expecting you to assist your sister".

"Don't have to tell me that". His daughter answered and took a last sip of water on her cup.

A small smile unknowingly appears on Yuna's lips when she heard that. Chaeryeong noticed it as she took a glance at her. "Besides, Yuna don't need my help. I think I need her more". Chaeryeong don't know what comes through her mind and said it. It might send a different meaning to them.

"You need her more?". Yuna's mom interrupted.

"I mean-she was smart. She can help me with... anything related to school, yea?". Chaeryeong really thought a good reason but that didn't stop Yuna from thinking a different meaning of it. And Chaeryeong's tone totally says she's right. That also happened to her earlier. Oh how she wish she didn't say those words that time.

She was almost caught but she was pretty smart to think of a reason, telling Chaeryeong that she just misheard it. Ofc, Chaeryeong isn't deaf to unheared what she said and she wasn't that far as well to misheard it. It was cleared to Chaeryeong's ear. She totally heard those words.

‘‘i like you too’’.

It remains on Chaeryeong's mind. Although, Yuna told her it's nothing, and insisted that she literally said ‘i like it too’ , she still don't believe the younger.

"Hmm, I see". Yuna's mom replied. Chaeryeong didn't know that she was talking with Yuna's Mom. She don't even want to threw a little or one word to the woman but there's something on her telling her to do it. Yuna's Mom's voice do sounds like her Mom's. It reminds her how her Mom talks and made her realized that Yeji's maybe right.

What if she trust Yuna's Mom? What if she was really her Mom's substitute now that she was gone?.

"It's getting late, go upstairs now. You two should take a rest". Yuna's Mom again spoke.

The two nods in unison and both of them stood up. "Good night, Mom, Dad". Yuna said and walked towards her mom to give her a goodnight kiss. "Goodnight, honey". Yuna's Mom replied as a smile formed onto her lips.

Their gazes now turned to Chaeryeong, signalling her something. "What?". Chaeryeong asks.

"Don't you want to give your Mom a goodnight kiss too?". Her Dad asks but sounds like an order.

Chaeryeong looked at him. "Do I have to?".

"It's okay. It's not necessary". Yuna's mom interrupted and gave her a small smile. Chaeryeong's eyes suddenly landed to Yuna's and there was a disappointment and pleased looked on the younger's face.

"Fine". Chaeryeong muttered in defeat and walked towards the woman. She leaned in and kissed the woman's cheeks. Suddenly, as Chaeryeong expected, the memories came back. The way she kiss her Mom every night before she sleep.The way her mom smiles at her after that. It's all the same. The feeling is the same.

"Goodnight... Chaery". Yuna's Mom said, smiling widely at the sight of Chaeryeong closer to her. She knew Chaeryeong would like her too as her new Mom. She can see on the girl's eyes that she need another guardian to take care of her. And she was definitely okay with that. Having two pretty daughters is absolutely fine.

Chaeryeong looked up at her before stepping a step backwards. "Chaery?". Chaeryeong's asks confusedly.

"Is it okay if I will call you that?".

Chaeryeong became silent for a moment. "It was... the nickname that Mom gave to me". She spoke and the woman in front smiled.

"Then think of me as your Mom". Yuna's Mom replied, the smile didn't leave her lips. "I will not force you. I will wait until you can accept me as your M-".

"Mom". Chaeryeong interrupted. "Goodnight... Mom". There was a smile plastering on her face with a teary eyes. But still, she hold it. She doesn't want to show her tears to others. She was strong, and will be.

Yuna's Mom's smile went even more wider as she heard that. It was a relief. It sounds good. She's now a Mom of two gorgeous kids. How she wish they could have a party after this. "Now now, go to your room. You two should sleep, ‘kay?". She said.

The two nodded with a smile on their faces and began to walk away. A satisfied smile appeared to Chaeryeong's Dad as he witnessed it. "I told you, she will accept you as her Mom". He spoke.

"It's worth waiting".

"It is". He smiled.

"Uh, Unnie". Yuna called as they arrived in front of Chaeryeong's room.

The older hummed in response. Yuna bit her lower lip, gaining a confidence to tell something. "What is it?". Chaeryeong asks as she noticed the girl isn't speaking.

Yuna looked down. "Uhm— I know it sounds weird— but— Uhm— Can I... Uh—"

Chaeryeong chuckled. "You know you can just tell me if you want to sleep with me, tss". She interrupted, facing the taller woman confidently.

Yuna's eyes widened and suddenly turned her gaze to the older. "I mean- I'm just— I can't sleep without someone beside me". She said Chaeryeong unknowingly smiles at the younger's statement. "I used to be with Mom every night, but, yeah, she was with Dad tonight".

Chaeryeong didn't response and opened her room's door instead, surprising the younger. Chaeryeong suddenly grabbed her hand and dragged her inside of the older's room.

Yuna wandered her eyes around. It was her second time in Chaeryeong's room but the first time she was here, she didn't have much time to explore the room. Because yeah, they just chased each other that time when Chaeryeong stole her phone.

There's no much stuffs inside. It was huge but only cabinets, the bed, two chairs are there. There's no even frames, displays, or any collection of her. Except that one picture frame placed over the mini cabinet beside Chaeryeong's bed.

Yuna walks towards it to have a clear view. She smiled and carefully took it. "You look cute here, Unnie". She spoke, gaining the attention of the older who's taking a pillow for her on the cabinet.

"Am I?". She replied, walking towards Yuna.

The younger nodded in response, smiling as she stared at the picture on her hand. It was Chaeryeong with her Mom when she was young. Probably 4 or 5 years old. Yuna was sure that it was Chaeryeong by looking at the girl's smile. "Unnie, can you tell me where she is right now?". She asks, looking at the girl behind her.

Chaeryeong sat on the bed, as well as Yuna. "My Mom?". She paused. A bitter smile appeared on her lips. "She's not here anymore. She's on heaven already".

Yuna feels guilty. Seeing the saddest smile on Chaeryeong isn't a good view for her. "Sorry". The only word escaped on her mouth as she stared at the girl.

"It's okay". She paused for a second. " Mom died four years ago. She have a heart disease and she didn't make it. She gave up".

Hearing the reason why Chaeryeong's Mom died, Yuna's heart suddenly skipped a beat. There was a nervous feeling forming on her. She gulp and looked away. "Did she took a treatment?".

"She stayed in the hospital for almost two weeks. We bought everything she needed. Until the doctor said we have to find a donor. A heart donor. I thought we could easily find a donor for Mom because we have lots of money. But seems like... everything was planned". She stated, emphasizing the last word.

"Planned?".

"It was impossible that we didn't have any donor. It confused me like hell. We offered a big money for it. Until someone went towards me and tell everything. It isn't true that there's no donor accepted the offer. Actually, there's lot of people wanted it, but someone sabotaged us". She explained.

There was a person in Yuna's mind who can be that someone who sabotages them. But she was thinking twice if she was right or not. What could be the reason to sabotage them?

"Is it—".

"Yes. It was Dad".

Yuna didn't response and remained silent. "He didn't accept the donor. He payed everyone so they won't tell us the truth. The nurses, doctors, and everyone who witnessed him". Chaeryeong continued.

"Why would he do that?".

Chaeryeong chuckled bitterly. "I don't know". She lied. "Let's sleep now. It's late". She lay down on her bed and pulled up the blanket.

Yuna didn't force her to talk again and just lay down beside her. It suddenly became awkward. It's dark but the moon's brightness was reflecting in the wide glass window, being the only source of light inside. "Unnie".

"What?". The older asks.

"Can you... do me a favor?".

"What is it?".

Yuna took a deep sigh. "Can you— hug me?". She stated, making a thin line on her lips.

Hearing no response from the oldeler. She shut her eyes and bit her lower lip, completely embarrassed of what she just said.

She remained silent for a moment not until she felt something embracing her. It was Chaeryeong's arm placed on her waist. The older was too closed that she can feel Chaeryeong's breath hitting the back of her neck. It's giving her a weird feelings, something like, butterflies in stomach they said. Well, both of them feels the same. Chaeryeong was enjoying Yuna's scent while Yuna's enjoying Chaeryeong's warm hug.

Chaeryeong was about to close her eyes when something caught her hand. Yuna gently took the older's soft hand and intertwined them. Yuna's hand on top of Chaeryeong's. It feels good. For the both of them, it was totally perfect.

"Y-Yuna?". Chaeryeong muttered. She don't want to think something or give meaning about it but, she was freaking confused. Why would Yuna do this? Why is she suddenly acting like this?

"Unnie". The younger mumbled, holding her hand tighter.

"Let's just be like this... Even just for tonight".
