"Hey Ryu," Karina greeted the girl outside the cafe, Ryujin quickly hid the lit cigarette on her back

"Hey, she's inside." Ryujin flashed an uneasy smile

"Can I?" Karina asked, wanting to take a hit on her little stick

Ryujin was surprised but she still lend it to her, "You smoke too huh?"

"Yeah, I quit but then I see you and I missed the warm feeling of it entering my lungs," Karina explained

"Winter hates smokers," Ryujin spoke, eyes darted somewhere far

"Does she?" Karina squinted her eyes and Ryujin nodded her head in response

"I don't think so, she loves us both though." Karina patted her head before she went inside

"Why do you always mess my hair like this? Urgh, just because you're tall," She heard her sulked which made a small smile appear on her lips

It's currently 6pm, 15 minutes more 'til the clock strikes at 7. She figured she'll wait for Winter so they'll both be going to the amusement park together. She doesn't want to wait there alone, she knew Winter wouldn't be in time.

Speaking of the girl, there she was stretching her body with an earphones in.

Karina never thought she have a lovely voice, she would definitely die just to hear that whenever it's time for bed.

'Cause I have hella feelings for you
I act like I don't fucking care
Like they ain't even there
'Cause I have hella feelings for you
I act like I don't fucking care
'Cause I'm so fucking scared

She leaned on the countertable to watch and listen to the girl sing her heart out. Winter haven't noticed her yet because she's facing her back, and she's busy in her own world.

I'm only a fool for you
And maybe you're too good for me
I'm only a fool for you~
But I don't fucking care, at all, oh

When she turned around she thought her heart jumped out of her chest, she was surprised to see Karina smiling adorably there. Her eyes are sparkling.

"Why are you here?" Winter took her earphones off

Karina shrugged her shoulders in response as she averted her gaze.

"You have one sexy voice Minjeong!" Karina complimented

Winter was flustered by that as she looked away, finding the words to say next.

"Anyways, shouldn't you be getting ready? And why is your cheeks red? Do you feel sick?" Karina worriedly asked

Winter turned her back again, "I-it's nothing. Let me change real quick."

Karina nodded her head. Winter's eyes went up and down, she noticed a few changes in her and she swore the girl looks too good to be true eventhough she's only wearing a casual outfit.

Her usual straight black hair is now curled up into a wave, she's wearing grey contacts and light make up, her lips are tinted red and her attire is just a casual one, black longsleeve tucked in her short skirt paired with black converse shoes.

Karina taps her feet on the floor, lips pouting as she patiently waits for the younger one.

"Let's go," Her breath hitched when Winter appeared on her side, she  looks so fresh and she also looks like a person who's cold and distant towards others

Karina approached her and without any warning she put her hands on Winter's cheeks.

"Please smile just for today," She pouted

Winter meet her eyes, it was pleading. Her heartbeats rapidly out of her chest, the sensation she can only feel around Karina came back again. And for once, she thought of claiming her lips like what she did a week ago.

Karina leaned closer until their noses touched. A smirk arose from the side of her lips, with her mouth slightly parted she was about to land it on hers but of course somebody has to ruin the mood again

"Oh my god! Porno! Get a room you gays!" Ryujin emerged

Winter pushed Karina aside, feeling embarassed because of out of all people it has to be Ryujin who sees them in that position.

"We'll go," Winter walked out of the scene, leaving Karina alone with Ryujin who had a teasing smile on her face

"You two are together huh?" Ryujin wiggled her eyebrows to tease the girl

"Well not yet, let's not get ahead of ourselves," Karina replied while stifling a smile

"It's obvious you're into Winter and she's into you! Why don't you guys just date each other and stop playing push and pull! Aish, you two are frustrating me," Ryujin blurted out

Karina's eyes widened, it was the same thing Yeonjun told her. Maybe, she have a chance after all. It made her feel warm inside.

"Don't worry, I'll claim her before this night ends." She winked at the girl before she follows Winter who's patiently waiting outside the cafe

"You ready to go Minjeong?" She asked enthusiastically

Winter nodded her head, not wanting to make an eye contact with the hyper-active girl because of embarassment.

Karina rolled her sleeves up to her elbows, showing her pale white skin. Winter noticed the scars on her wrist and it made her sad instantly

She took her hand and pulled her towards her, making their body collide at each other.

She observed her wrist as she slowly caressed her fresh scars.

"You wouldn't do this again right?" Winter looked up to see her face

Karina gave her a small smile, "I can't promise but I'll try,"

Winter bit her tounge, taking a deep breath before she say something. It seems like Karina hasn't been hurting herself lately, she doesn't have any new wounds on her wrist and it's enough to make Winter feel at ease.

"You can always talk to me, don't harm yourself like that again. Your skin is too pretty to be disdain." Winter genuinely smiled at her

Karina's heart skipped a beat, she wanted to cry out of joy.

"You never fail to surprise me Winter, sometimes you treat me coldly and then the next day you'll treat me this gentle and warm. Your duality is unbelievable," Karina joked

Winter slightly laughed, "Which Winter do you like best then?"

"You. I like you most." Karina replied boldly
