《Teddy Bear | WinRina》Chapter 5
Advertisement
After an hour long that feels like 712178 of not so peaceful hours has passed, the satan and the youngest can no longer be seen on any angles of the Yu's house for they have left. Although it had only been a few hours after their first encounter with Winter, they had grown too fond of her. She had been a great "entertainment" for them.
But in a good way, of course.
The two idiots hugged the bear like she meant everything to them for a good 5 minutes, yes, they were that fond of Winter.
But they made a pack to visit the bear again when they have the time. With more accessories, or some fun stuff, they said. "Or maybe with some costumes!" Katrina recalled what the satan said with a devil-like grin plastered all over her face.
Then it was followed by "Please don't go missing."
"Please stay adorable,"
"We'll be back!", etc.
They were full of drama while Winter was just :D
Katrina rolled her eyes.
Her train of thoughts stopped as her gaze landed on Winter who's currently going through the decos on the 4 walls of the living room.
"What is this?" Winter turned her head towards Katrina, pointing at a framed painting.
"That's a painting." Wintertilted her head. Looks like she needs to explain it to her.
"Colours applied on a surface to form an image of something that you wanted?" Katrina furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, not so sure about her own words.
"What's an image?"
"What you're seeing now is an image. I think..." The mumbled the last part, still unsure about her explanations.
"OOH I see." The bear nodded nevertheless. Somehow the painting caught her attention. Everything caught her attention, actually, but this one is different as she traced her fingers on the canvas.
Just then Yujin came back from the bathroom, she plumped herself beside her unnie while drying her hair with a towel.
"What's up, now?" The youngest points her chin on Winter who had removed her attention from the framed painting to the other side of the wall as she examining everything out of curiousity.
"I don't know..." Katrina sighed. Her dongsaeng pursed her lips as they both just eye whatever the bear is doing.
"Uh what should I do with her?" The oldest then pinch the bridge of the nose when Winter patted an empty side of the sky blue colored wall before hugging it.
Winter is hugging the wall.
"Looks like we don't have any other choice than to keep her." Yujin held back her laughter when she sees the bear smiled, still hugging the wall.
"But she's clueless about everything!"
"Don't worry, I'll help you with that. Besides, she learns fast! Seriously! It's like she's gifted, by God's grace." Her dongsaeng chuckled, "It'll be fun too!" She added.
"Well..." Katrina heaved another sigh. She's calmed for a moment there, though she's supposed to be amused. But she doesn't have the time for that, she thought.
There was a moment of silence after that, until a growling sound of Winter's stomach echoed through it.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!" Winter stumbled backward from hugging the wall, but she managed to hold herself with her two feet, fists held out in a fighting pose as something is about to jump out and make her nose bleed again.
"You're hungry." Yujin laughed.
"What is hungry?"
The youngest just stood up and went to their fridge, Winter's eyes following her. She took out a cookie and held it out to the bear's direction. "Do you want this?"

"YESSSS!" The bear gasped before nodding vigorously.
"That's hungry." She then walked to the hungry bear and gave it which she happily munch down.
Katrina just scratched her head at their exchanges before ordering Yujin to get one for her too for she's also hungry.
"Uhh.. Unnie?"
"Hm?"
"We're out of it." Yujin said flatly. "We're out of everything to be exact. I think we need to do some grocery shopping."
Katrina jolted up. "My banana milks????"
"I think Winter took the last one."
Katrina's glare was answered by an innocent smile.
"No choice we need to restock anyway." After one last sigh, she stood up, making her way to her room.
"But what about her?" Yujin motioned to Winter.
Her unnie stopped after climbing the first stair. She turn to Winter, biting her lips while eyeing her momentarily.
"Yujin, can you stay home and keep an eye on her?"
"No way, I need to look for my stuff too!" She whined.
The really don't have any other choice.
—
The Yu's stood abruptly in front of their door, wearing casual outfits like plain tee's and skinny jeans. Winter's still in her new set of clothes. Luckily her blood didn't stain her yellow baggy shirt, but it did stain Katrina's.
They'll only head to do some groceries, so why bother dressing up? Of course, Katrina didn't want people to think that she just assassinated someone.
"Winter?" Katrina turned around, calling the girl who's currently hugging the empty wall on the right side of the corridor.
"Mmmyes?" The bear said, with one eye open in the same position.
"Come here." Winter pulled back and walked towards her master. "What is it?"
"Um..we're going out now." She stared at the bear. "Stay by me or Yujin's side okay?" She held the shorter one by her shoulders and tilted her head forward to look up into her eyes.
"Okay!"
"You ready?" Katrina looks at her dongsaeng who just grinned back.
Holding into Winter's hand, she took a deep breathe before twisting the front door open. "Here goes nothing."
—
After what seems like forever to Katrina when they made their way to the supermarket (Blame Winter for her 712178 questions of "What is that?") they managed to survive as they stood in front of the building.
"Oh my God!!" Winter learnt that from Aeri. "WHAT IS THIS GIANT HOUSE??"
The bear had her jaw drop as she motion at the almighty size of the supermarket.
"It's not a house, bear. It's a Supermarket. It's where people get stuff that they want." Yujin looked up to the building.
"SHHHHHH! Be quiet, people might kick us out!" Katrina shushed the bear who immediately held her master's hand afterward.
"We're not even in yet, unnie."
"SHUSH I SAID."
—
"From the looks of it, we may need a cart." Yujin suggested when her hands were almost full of their needs.
"Oh! Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Katrina face palmed herself with a carrot. It was the only thing she's carrying since Winter was clinging into her right arm.
"Because you were too busy explaining things to Winter. I've suggested that ever since we went inside but you were too occupied with Winter" Her dongsaeng said flatly.
Yujin was right. It was hell of a hectic battle in Katrina and Yujin's mind, trying to come out with the right sentences with just the right amount of words to Winter's questions. Good thing that Winter is a fast learner, for she doesn't ask the same question seeing the same thing that she has asked before.

"Can you get the cart, please?" Katrina threw her dongsaeng her pitiful looking eyes. She really can't go since....Winter.
"Ew, but okay." Yujin went to fetch one near the entrance.
"What's a cart?"
Katrina sighed. "You'll see."
Yujin came back soon after that, thankfully.
"That's a cart." Her master pointed at the cart Yujin came pushing lazily.
"And it helps us carry things that are hard for us to carry when we're in here!" Yujin decided to finish her unnie's sentence. She smiled at Yujin, thanking her.
"Why are you better at explaining things? I found it very hard!" Katrina puffed her cheeks. It was actually true. She had always found it hard to explain the use of something when Winter kept asking them. "Y'know, I think I can trust Winter on you."
"I just happen to be that smart, I guess." She pushed the cart by her unnie's side just to pat her cheeks. "I'm not complaining, Winter is fun." She tilted her head backward to take a sight of the bear who's still mesmerized by everything around her.
Katrina ruffled her dongsaeng's hair after putting the carrot in the cart.
They continued picking up several things afterward. Some packs of cookies that Winter happened to recognize, Katrina's banana milk to her liking and boxes of orange juice are lasts on the list of their needs.
It may sound a lot if you include all of the kitchen needs but the cart was only half full.
And Winter has been behaving very well. Too well that Katrina started to worry. She didn't trip on nothing like the first time she did at her house or the second when they're making their way to the supermarket. Only this time, they manage to catch Winter.
Luck must be at her side this time.
"Ah! I almost forgot!" Yujin slightly slammed a fist to her other free palm after releasing the cart.
"What is it?" Katrina and Winter turned to the latter.
"My marshmallows!" Yujin exclaimed.
Katrina mouthed an 'Oh', "You better go get them, I need cook dinner for us." She waved Yujin telling her to be quick. Katrina knows too well about Yujin's obsession on her fav marshmallow.
"What are marshmallows?"
Yujin gasped, putting a hand on her chest. "You don't kno- Oh wait, of course you don't." Her eyes turned lame. "I'll show it to you! Come with me! Unnie, I'm gonna bring this cart along!"
"Yah, Yuji-" Katrina pulled Winter back when Yujin tugged her right arm, trying to pull the bear to the section she was about to head.
The OH ALMIGHTY CANDY SECTION.
"B-But-" The youngest whined loudly. She likes Winter and she couldn't bear that the bear will never be able to witness the paradise. She was exaggerating, they could always go again. But that's not how Yujin rows. Heh.
To their surprise, Winter held her postion when Karina pulled her to her side. She smiled to her master.
"It's okay, Katrina. You did say to stay by either one of you." Ok that really took Katrina by surprise. Even Yujin was left gaping.
Since when can the bear be this... 'Not Winter'? They weren't able to make up any words to describe her action.
"O-Okay.." Her master slowly let go of her hand from Winter's arm.
"Yeahhh!! Winter, hold on to my shoulders." The bear did as told. "Let's go!!"
With that, Yujin dashed out of the scene with the cart in her hands followed by Winter who's running clumsily trying to match her pace.
"Wait!" Katrina raised an arm trying to stop them. It was no use. They're already out of sight.
Katrina let out a chuckle after staring at the direction her sister dragged Winter to.
Maybe she wasn't so dense at all. Maybe she should worry less.
—
"AND HERE WE HAVE THE OH SO GLORIOUS, SO MAJESTIC, SO EXTRAVAGANT, SO WONDERFUL CANDY SECTION! Or paradise, as what I prefer to call it." Yujin was holding Winter's hand while her other hand waving around the said section, admiring each and every brand the pass.
Winter's eyes were everywhere, she was so excited. Different types of sweets and snacks of all sorts of brand were stacked neatly in each shelf, sorted accordingly to the colors of each flavor respectively.
Every turn the bear made are filled with colors, she couldn't stop smiling.
Yujin smiled when she saw how giddy the bear got. But they don't have much time to be sight-seeing. She needs to find her marshmallow quick.
"Winter?"
"Hm?" The older chirped, a little to brightly.
In order to get her thing, she needs to let go Winter for a while. She bit her lips, searching for something that may distract her but will not change her position.
Yujin panicked a little, until her gaze landed on the cart in front of her. An idea popped in her brain.
"Can you hold on to this while I get my stuff over there?" She pointed at a part of a shelf filled with pink-coloured sweets. "You can look around at the mean time!"
"Oh! Okay!" The bear nodded.
Yujin moved Winter's hands from her shoulders and to the handle of the cart. She held it tight.
"Don't move, okay?" Yujin backed away slowly, her index fingers held out to warn her. Like a dog owner teaching his dog to sit and stay.
The bear only blinked when Yujin turned around to the shelf when she backed off far enough. Her eyes started to wonder around when Yujin's attention wasn't on her anymore.
Being the newbie to everything she is, she just studied on everything again, not forgetting the grin.
The grin on her fast broke into a gaping one, as her eyes landed on something stacked on the highest shelf to her right.
It was a chocolate milk standing gloriously on the edge of the shelf, outshining everything else around it. Yujin's warning long forgotten as the bear pushed the cart under the said shelf.
"Yujin?" Winter voiced out. Yujin hummed but she didn't turn around. As long as Winter is still audible, she won't go missing, Yujin thought.
"Can Winwin have something too?" The bear asked, it almost sounded like a beg.
Yujin chuckled, her attention is still on her side of the shelf. "Go ahead! I'm sure unnie wouldn't mind."
"Thank you!"
With the wanted permission, Winter tiptoed herself to reach the certain drink, but failed. She groaned quietly after a few more failed tries. She wanted to ask for Yujin's help but how can someone shorter than herself do any help? She frowned sadly as her last attempt to reach the drink failed.
The bear was about to give up until on her last last last attempt, she jumped slightly, slapping the bottle of its position.
She grinned widely but it didn't last when the chocolate milk didn't land on her hands. Instead, it went rolling away.
"NO!" Winter shouted, earning Yujin's full attention this time.
"W-What-" She quickly turn around to where she had last seen the bear but only to have her jaw dropped when she was not in her sight.
"Oh no no no." The latter kept repeating her words while trying to spot wherever Winter could be. She then turned swiftly and there she saw her. But it didn't make anything better.
Winter was pratically running towards the rolling bottle with the cart still in her hands. Trying to chase it. Surprisingly, it rolls a little to fast.
"WINTER!!!!"
—
Katrina was at the cleaning supplies section of the supermarket. Wanting to try something new, she opened a few bottles of fabric softeners. Each one of it smells really nice, it took her a while to pick one.
She didn't even realize that the two other took a little too long on picking just sweets.
She's too into the fabric softeners. She likes the smell of its fragrance. So soft, so calming, it puts her mind at ease.
Her decision was finally made as she picked the first one that she inhaled. It was lavender scented.
"I knew you were the one!" She whispered as she held it close to her chest.
Katrina absentmindedly look to her left as she heard people rustling over something.
She saw something bottle rolling fast across the way between the shelves, followed by a cart with someone on it, making it seem like the person was chasing the thing.
"Is that a...chocolate milk?" She furrowed her eyebrows.
"COME BACK HERE, YOU!!" Her smile dropped. She quickly averted her eyes back to the scene.
"Win-"
"PLEASE DON'T GO AWAY!! WINWIN NEEDS YOU!!" Winter literally had her right foot on the metal on top of the cart wheels with her left one pushing the ground, increasing the speed of the cart.
"-ter"
"YAH WINTER! COMEBACK HERE UNNIE WILL KILL BOTH OF US!!!"
Yujin has appeared with bags of pink marshmallow swirls in her arms, chasing after a bear who's riding on a shopping cart, chasing after the bottle that's rolling in a speed of light by God's grace.
How can it rolls that fast?
Katrina took back everything she had thought about her.
Maybe she wasn't so dense at all, my foot.

Corpse Crawler
Ludwig Lock wakes up in a hospital bed to find a weeping woman at his side. After some crying, more weaping and confusion, Ludwig discovers that that lady was his ten year old sister, and that he's been in a coma for fifteen years. He also learns that the world he had grown to know was no more since heroes, villains, and super powers inhabit the streets, being regarded as a lot of things withing an endless spectrum. Just when he was about to finally get started with his new life, Ludwig faced a streak of bad luck, the last event of this chain setting him up to die so a vigilante can save himself. After suffering the worst beating of his life and experimenting the incompetence of the law, Ludwig decides to use his own hands to achieve justice. He will face difficult challenges, traumatic situations, and probably horrible stuff to get his life rolling. But at least he's got a friend to help him. Not a normal one though. ---- IMPORTANT: I personally identify powers as a fantastical element, which is why I don't find weird the addition of other elements of the same vein if it stays within the logic of the world. New and old chapters get updated with relative frequency, (new chapter every week, though it may be delayed a day or more to problems or some other reason) and the story is in a draft-like state, meaning it will probably stay the same but there will be changes on the prose or writing. Also, I would apreciate if it is known to me (Respectfully) which points should I improve on.
