Psychological Love
"Alright, bye Bbom! By Chorong unnie! Good luck!" Eunji called out from inside of the car.
"Bye!" Naeun added, waving at the two before Eunji drove off. Chorong heaved a sigh before turning to Bomi.
"Alright, Bbom. Let's go inside." Bomi only nodded, a sleepy look on her face, and Chorong couldn't help but grin and ruffle the younger's hair. Walking up to her door, she unlocked it and held the door open. "Welcome to my house," she said, grinning. Chorong watched as Bomi walked in with her bag full of clothes before she shut the door and locked it behind her.
"Woah, this is your house, Unnie?" Bomi said, looking around the cozy looking area around her.
"Yeah, you like it? Now that I think about it, you've never come inside before," Chorong said, and with that, she grabbed Bomi's bag from her hand and walked into the house. "Here Bbom-ah, you can use this room," Chorong said, opening the door to the spare room that she had and flicking on the lights. Hearing no response, Chorong turned to see an uneasy looking Bomi. She seemed to have that expression quite a lot. "What's wrong?"
"I-I don't want to sleep alone," Bomi said quietly, looking down. Chorong was surprised at Bomi's confession, and she tilted her head at the younger girl. The Bomi that she had come to know, and admittedly love would have never confessed her vulnerabilities like that, but once again, Chorong didn't find that displeasing.
"Okay, do you want to sleep with me?" Chorong asked, smiling warmly at Bomi. Bomi's expression immediately lit up, and she nodded vigorously.
"Can I? You're the best!" Bomi said, and hugged Chorong for at least the tenth time this day. Chorong couldn't get used to Bomi's hugs, as the Bomi before had never initiated any form of skinship on purpose, though she didn't reject it from other people. She awkwardly patted Bomi on the back with a smile.
"Alright, come on Bbom."

Chorong laid down on one side of the bed. She would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. After all, she did have a certain attraction for Bomi, and sleeping in the same bed with the younger was more than enough to send her heart palpitating. She scooted as far as she could to the left side of the bed and turned to face the wall as she heard Bomi come out of the bathroom.
"Unnie?"
"Hmm?" Chorong responded, her voioce slightly strained.
"I can sleep next to you, right?" Bomi asked. Chorong shifted and turned to see Bomi standing by the bed, looking down at her. Chorong's breath hitched in and she quickly turned again.
"Of course." Without even looking, Chorong knew that Bomi was smiling, and she felt the bed dip slightly as Bomi crawled underneath the blanket. Chorong could feel Bomi's body heat warming her back. She realized that this was the first time since her mother passed away that she was sleeping in the same bed with someone, and that someone was Bomi.
"Unnie, can you tell me some stuff about yourself? I can't remember everything clearly, but I don't think you've ever told me anything about your background," Bomi suddenly said. Chorong completely froze up. It was true. She had never told Bomi, or anyone for that matter, about her background. Her background wasn't as...horrible as Bomi's, but it wasn't something that she wanted to be reminded of, nevermind talk about.
"I'm sorry Bbom-ah, but can we drop that subject for now? I'm not...ready to talk about it yet," Chorong said quietly. She felt like a bad person for keeping her background a secret when she knew about Bomi's, but she honestly wasn't ready, and adding to that, she wanted to tell Bomi when she got her memory back.
"Okay," Bomi replied, but Chorong could hear the disappointment in the younger's
