Chaeyeon groaned as the ray of lights strikes to her bare face as she was peacefully sleeping. With her creasing forehead, Chaeyeon rubs her eyes as she carefully opened her orbs, slowly scanning the place. 

"Damn...my headaches....where am I?" She grunts, gradually sitting up as she tried to recognize the room. Her eyes slowly bulging out as she realized that she is still in the Elysium.  

Chaeyeon quickly leaves her bed and decided to head to the dining place to find her friends, but to her luck, she didn't saw them there instead the servants of the palace greeted her as soon as she set her foot in the place. 

She then started to make her way to the entrance of the palace, she might find them there but again, to her luck she only saw her mother with an old man beside her which Chaeyeon couldn't recognize. 
The Queen is talking to the guards, it must be serious, so she decided to walk away not wanting to put their attention to them but her mother saw her. 

"Daughter, good morning. Where are you going?" The Queen greeted her, smiling softly at her.

"Uhhhh...good morning, mother. I was just finding my friends..." Chaeyeon answered, scratching her nape as she saw how the guards beside her mother widened their eyes after hearing them talking. 

"Oh, she is my eldest daughter, Chaeyeon. She is Yujin's older sister." The Queen smiled as she introduced the shy Chaeyeon to the angel around her. 

"You grew up so nice and pretty, princess Chaeyeon. I am the Chief in this palace, Chaewon's father." Chief smiled and Chaeyeon's cheeks redden from the sudden honorific she is getting from the old man. But she shook his hands politely, not wanting to get any wrong impressions.  

Chaeyeon only smiled awkwardly as she bowed her head to the angels greeting her with full of respect and honor. She looked at her mother with uneasiness since she isn't used to being treated like this, but the Queen smiled at her, conveying through her eyes that it's okay. 

"I'll excuse myself, mother. I'm gonna find my friends." Chaeyeon said and the Queen nodded her head, the other angels bowed their head even the Chief as Chaeyeon excused herself and walked towards inside the palace. 

She sighed in relief after she successfully excused herself from them. Well, you know,  the sudden treatment she is getting from this place is overwhelming her, to the point that it somehow sends awkwardness. 

Chaeyeon's feet dragged her to the garden of the palace due to her urge to see her friends, she just wanted to make sure if they are doing well here. 

"Woah..." Her jaw dropped after seeing the whole breathtaking view at the garden, it can even send serene in your soul. Butterflies are present and different unknown gorgeous flowers that she sees for the first time give so much calmness to her. 

She closed her eyes and inhaled the air, just by that action, this is enough to calm someone's nerves. It's a nice place to think about things.  

"Magnificent, right? This is a good place to relax and think about things. You can also spend your time alone here."

Chaeyeon opened her eyes, but then it quickly rounds up after seeing closely Sakura's face smiling softly at her. 

"How long have you been here?" Chaeyeon asked in surprise, she stepped back due to their face intimacy. 

Sakura chuckles at her expression, "Not that long, just enough, I guess." the short-haired girl answered, then stared at her eyes, making Chaeyeon to stumbles backward but due to it, but her eyes widen two times from earlier when Sakura pulled her closer to her, "Hey, careful, there's a rock behind you." Sakura added while holding still Chaeyeon closer to her. 

Not even aware of their intimacy, Sakura is still calm as her eyes are busy observing the rock, unlike Chaeyeon who is panicking inside because of it as her eyes are trailed to the short-haired girl. 

"Saku-chan...." Chaeyeon called, trying to get the older girl's attention, so she can escape from Sakura's soft grip. Because if she makes this long, Chaeyeon can feel that her heart will be out of the cage if this intimacy continues, considering how her heart is thumping so fast right now. 

She cursed under her breathe when Sakura looked at her after being called, but Chaeyeon's sure right now that her heart can jump out from her chest because their lips are centimeters apart from each other, as their faces are very close. 

Both are shocked by their position, each can be seen as a surprising expression in their faces. As both can't deny the fact how their heart screams so loud at this moment they are in right now. As if it would run out from their chest on how fast and loud beating it is. 

"Uhhh—...s-sorry..." Sakura quickly removed her hands from Chaeyeon's hand as she also backed away from the younger one.

"Uhh yeah..." Chaeyeon laughed awkwardly, she cleared . It feels so dry after what just happened. 

"Yeah...." Sakura chuckles awkwardly, scratching her nape as she roamed her eyes around the garden just like Chaeyeon who is looking everywhere except her, not wanting to show to each other how embarrassed they are. 

Because of the awkward incident, both of them fall in silence as they don't know what to say to each other. Unbeknownst to them how also their heart falls from that moment. 

"Sorry, again," Chaeyeon cleared , trying to ease the awkwardness. While Sakura bites her lips and slowly tried to glance at Chaeyeon. But she's quick to look away because the younger is already staring at her, causing both of their cheeks to flushed as if they are both caught from doing something wrong.  

"Chaeyeon-unnie!" 

Chaeyeon looked at Yujin who called her from afar, she sighed in relief for the youngers presence. She can't be thankful enough to Yujin for pulling her from the awkward situation. 

"Nice timing." Sakura from the other hand said as she looked at her little sister running towards them. She squinted her eyes when she saw someone behind Yujin, and it was none other than Minjoo. 

Chaeyeon waves her hand at the younger angel and to her best friend after finally seeing her familiar face. She quickly went to Minjoo to give her best friend a hug.  

"Saku-chan! Nice timing, you are also here!" Yujin greeted as soon as she gets nears to the two of them. 

"Why?" Sakura asked blankly, Chaeyeon then frowned at her from the sudden change of mood towards the youngest angel. 

"Well, I planned a picnic for us!" Yujin said excitedly, 

"Does mother knows?" Sakura asked and Yujin nodded her head. She looked at Sakura and Chaeyeon before looking at Minjoo beside her, "Mother already knows, come on! The others are already there!" Yujin said at them before pulling Minjoo alongside with her. 

Sakura creased her forehead as she looked at Yujin and Minjoo going ahead of them.

"Why are they so close like that?" Sakura asked, squinting her eyes when she saw Yujin holds Minjoo's hand and seems like the latter isn't against it. 

"Why? You jealous or something?" Chaeyeon asked and Sakura raised her brow as she looks at Chaeyeon, giving frowned expression as if the younger said something absurd. 

"Why would I be jealous? I'm just shocked at how they became close to each other just like that." Sakura snorted and Chaeyeon crossed her arm, trying to observe the short-haired girl's expression. 

"It's fine. Minjoo is really a popular girl around our university, so I understand if you are jealous because Yujin got her first than you." Chaeyeon stated and it takes everything for Sakura not to raise her brow so high while hearing everything from her.

"What?" Sakura asked, frowning deeper.

"You like her, don't you? Aigoo, it's fine. But, Yujin is already—"

"Seriously, Chaeyeon, where that came from?" Sakura asked, cutting her off. 

"Oh...am I wrong? Why are you getting so pressed suddenly?" Chaeyeon asked she blinks her eyes seeing Sakura's poker face. 

"' Coz you are seeing that wrong." Sakura scoffed and walks away, leaving Chaeyeon behind.

"What? Then, why are you getting annoyed about seeing their closeness? How can you explain that?" Chaeyeon asked, making Sakura stopped.

"I am not annoyed, I just found it weird because they came so close quickly." Sakura snorted, Chaeyeon glared at her, "what?" She asked.

"Why are you suddenly questioning their closeness? I am really convinced that you like my best friend." Chaeyeon sneered which made Sakura rolled her eyes, she started to walk away from the younger but stopped when Chaeyeon talks again. 

"You're not answering, so you do like Minjoo—"

"Gosh, Chaeyeon! I don't like Minjoo! Yes, she is pretty and a nice girl! But it doesn't mean I like her romantically! I like you more than her!" Sakura snapped after so many annoying remarks she got from Chaeyeon. Her eyes widened after she realized what she just said, even Chaeyeon is surprise hearing those statements from her. 

Sakura also surprised where the heck that came from.

"I like you as a friend! That's what I mean!" Sakura cleared as the red-tinted color escape her cheeks. 

"Yeah, hahaha...that's nice.." Chaeyeon answered awkwardly as she fans herself. Breathing deeply as she tried to calm the fast beating in her chest. 

"Let's j-just follow t-them..." Sakura muttered and walks faster than Chaeyeon, trying to escape from the awkward situation, once again. 

The same with Chaeyeon who only nodded her head, trying to dismiss the mere disappointment in her chest from Sakura's words, as both of them walks quietly to follow Minjoo and Yujin. 

"Are you two s
