Sharing is Caring (Chapter 9)
Winter, go away !Under a big shady tree at the hospital compound, two girls sat down after a short silent walk. The older one leaned her back against the tree. Eyes glued on the younger one who was keeping her head down, avoiding eye contact. It was still early in the morning, not so many people went out for fresh air yet.
"Are you mad at me?", Chorong asked.
The girl in yellow school uniform shook her head, still looking at the ground.
"I'm sorry..."
Hearing that, Namjoo raised her head and quickly grabbed Chorong's hand. "No unnie!! I am the one who should be sorry. I shouldn't have behaved like that. I'm sorry.... I was being immature. As an older sister, I should have understand that Hayoung needs more care as she's sick, but instead I was being jealous. I raised my voice to my unnies, I scared Hayoung, and I... I.."
"Namjoo! Look at me!" Chorong cupped her sister's face. "It's okay, it's fine. Having emotions, and showing them are normal for we are humans", she smiled. "I was too worried about Hayoung that I unconsciously forgot about you, about Bomi, Eunji, and Naeun. So if there's anyone to blame, it should be me. Also, if you did not behave like that, I wouldn't have realized that I did something bad"
"Don't say that, unnie. I was being childish, it wasn't your fault."
"Be it childish, immature, or jealous. Either way, it means that love me, isn't it?"
