"I said I love you too, you fool~", Minjeong smiled happily, looking at Jimin who still frozen, kneeling right infront of the younger girl.

Unlike Minjeong who was totally calm after the confession, Jimin hearts thumping two times faster than normal. Her eyes still wide open and her mouth finally closed, gulping few times before she was hit back into realization.

"Why are you looking at me like that?", Minjeong asked when she realized how shock Jimin became from the confession.

"I-It's just... It's just that I'm... so happy... yet so shock", Jimin finally stand up. Her widen eyes came to normal and finally her face formed into a smile.

"I'm shocked that you were strangely not shy at all while saying that", Jimin blushed. Her head turned to the left trying to avoid the eye contact.

"So what are we now? A couple?", Minjeong asked innocently.

Jimin nodded her head, hands were held together, her tender fingers playfully playing with each other.

"We are", Jimin said.

"I'm really sorry that I figured my feelings too late. I feel bad for making you waiting eonni", Minjeong sigh.

"It's okay~ So tell me how you finally be able to figure out your feelings?", Jimin asked. She took the sit on the empty hospital bed beside Minjeong's wheelchair, holding one of the younger girl hands softly, playing with Minjeong fingers.

It's not a weird action to both of them. It's not like they've never held each others hand before. The difference is that now the touch was more to romantic way, instead of the usual friendly way.

"I already felt it for a long time. I always feel that tingling sensation inside my heart when I'm with you. It's just that I don't know why is my heart acting that way. Ningning and Taeyeon always scold me at how slow I am to catch up things", Minjeong said.

"So after that busy week of yours, doing your deadly assigment for days, I finally felt it. How lost I am and how lonely I am without meeting you. I felt empty. So when you asked me out yesterday, I finally conclude myself that I really need your warmth around me. It makes me feel so ha--- Oh gosh! Did I make you crying again?"

Minjeong asked when she saw another drop of tears came down from the older girl's cheek. Minjeong wiped the tears using her thumb, smiling brightly towards the older girl.

"I'm sorry for crying again. This is so embarrassing", Jimin chuckled to herself, then wiping her own tears.

"How about a date after your discharge?", Jimin asked. Their playful fingers finally interwined with each other sweetly, eyes looking at each other full of love, face exchanging pure and honest smile.

"Sure. A date", Minjeong agreed.

It's a new day on the next week. Jimin and Aeri came out from their apartment and enter Jimin's car. When Jimin saw Aeri gladly took the seat beside the driver seat, Jimin groan, rolled her eyes and looking at Aeri in dissastification.

"Aeri, we talked about this about 10 minutes ago! Come on!"

"Gosh girl, relax. I know you want your honeybunch sugarplum pumpy-umpy-umpkin to sit here, but we didn't even reach her house yet. You didn't even start the car's engine yet!", Aeri scoffed in desbelief.

"Fine! But make sure you go to the back seat once we arrived at Minjeong's house!", Jimin said, gazing towards her bestfriend.

Soon Jimin start the car and drive towards Minjeong house. It wasn't that far~ 10 minutes drive and Minjeong already there, waving her hands at the car with her happy face. Jimin smiled back before stopping her car right next to the short hair girl.

Pulling down the mirror beside the passenger seat, Jimin later give Aeri a deathly glare before the Japanese girl smirk in disgust, opening the door beside her.

"Fine fine. I'll move", Aeri said and walk out from the car, moving to the back seat.

Minjeong came inside the passenger seat happily, still with the same smile on her face and later a little laugh came out from the innocent girl.

"Chagi-ya why are you laughing like that?", Jimin asked with her happy smirk.

"Nothing. I'm just happy to see you~", Minjeong stated.

"Me too. You look cute today~", Jimin replied, holding her free hand with Minjeong's and smiled as bright as the younger girl.

While the girl behind them looking at them in disgust.

"Can you guys... just drive. I want to meet my girlfriend too!", Aeri rolled her eyes, stomping her feet in anger from the back seat. If Ningning was in the same car, Aeri will not be disturb by the lovey-dovey act infront of her right now.

Arrived at the campus, Aeri already headed off to find her love; Ningning. While Jimin and Minjeong just show their admiration towards each other in public by holding their hands all the time.

That will brought people attention for sure.

"Gosh! That's Karina"

"Is that her girlfriend? Gee I'm too late"

"Damn. Karina has a girlfriend now?"

Those words from people around them didn't distract the couple at all. Because of her nature self, Minjeong couldn't help from putting her head down while walking with her girlfriend. But she will never let go of the soft hand inside her grip. She will forever love that hand.

"Is everything alright chagi-ya?", Jimin asked concerning if Minjeong was disturbed by the people around them.

"I'm okay, as long as I'm with you~", Minjeong lifted her head up, looking at the taller girl beside her with a smile, trying to assure her that she was fine with the attention. Her smile somehow succeed to make the older girl smile in reflex.

"If they make you uncomfortable, tell me okay?"

They walked and walked until a voice stopped them from what they were doing.

"Karina!"

Jimin turned her head over in reflex as she heard someone calling her nickname out of blue, somehow a bit loud until it bring the attention of people around them.

Still holding Minjeong's hand tight, they saw a boy ran towards their direction with a frowning face of him. Jimin lifted her eyebrows in confusion. She knew that guy, but why all of sudden?

"Jaehyun? What's up?", Karina asked when she saw that classmate of her's stopped right infront of her and Minjeong.

Jaehyun didn't say anything for couple of seconds. She just looking at Minjeong, then to Minjeong. His eyes then moved towards their interwinded finger, later letting out a heavy sigh.

"So what those people said was right, huh?", he asked.

"What do you mean?", Jimin asked, while Minjeong hold somehow became tighten with the sudden reunion. Minjeong head was down, avoiding any possible eye contact with the boy.

Jimin was uncomfortable with Jaehyun sudden appearance tho. Not that she have any business with the boy beside they were only classmate, it was because Jaehyun once confessed to Jimin but she politely reject him after. Now with his sudden appearance, it make Jimin bothered.

"People talk, you know. They saw you with... your girlfriend? So I just came here to check it myself. I guess what they said was true after all", Jaehyun said, pointing her index finger to their interwined hands that slightly revealing their black thread bracelet.

Black thread 'J' and 'M' bracelet.

Jimin saw what he's pointing to. Jimin lifted her hand with Minjeong's, showing the proof to him that this was the girl's hand on her Instagram all along. This was the girl with the black thread bracelet with the initial 'M' on her Instagram.

"Yeah. She's . Is that bothering you?"

"Nah. I'm just checking out. Bye then", he said before finally leaving the scene.

Jimin give her attention to Minjeong again, squeezing the younger girl's hand tight and gave her a sudden peck on the forehead, making Minjeong's eye widen.

"I'm sorry that we need to encounter someone like that", Jimin said with her soft voice.

"It's okay. I'm with you, so I'm fine", Minjeong said the same words again, slightly tilted her head with her smile.
