Have you ever asked something that you already know the answer of it?

Aeri tightens her wrap to Jimin. Jimin sits on the grass with Aeri hugging her from the back, she leans her back on Aeri and rests the back of her head on Aeri's shoulder. They both sink in silence with warmth being exchanged between the two. Aeri kiss her temple while closing her eyes, the familiar fragrance of Jimin explores her mind thoroughly and intoxicates it slowly. 

Aeri knows she can kiss her as long as she can, hug her as much as she wants, and touch her as much as she pleases. But there's still a small hole inside her heart which has been becoming the source of her pain these days.

Aeri pulls Jimin from the hug and then faces her properly. "My beautiful Jimin"

She places her lips on Jimin's and then presses her delicately. Jimin puts her arm around Aeri's neck to earn a deeper kiss from her. They can feel how heated her kiss is to each other. Jimin pulls her deeper and Aeri holds her tightly. There is no more space between them with their tongues actively dancing with each other. Aeri's heart is racing so fast. The kiss is so good till the extent they don't want it to end. 

They break the kiss because they need to catch a breath from the long passionate heated kiss. 

"Should we go to your house now?" asked Jimin

Aeri stares at her with all of her emotion being pulled out. She decides to pull out the sacred words she has been trying to press all of this time. 

"I'm starting to like you, Jimin"

She can't conceal it anymore.

Jimin giggles. "You are?"

Aeri nods her head slightly. And then Jimin comes inside Aeri's hug to hug her tightly. She puts her head on Aeri's chest and then closes her eyes. She also rubs aeri's back with her fingers.

Aeri waits for her.

But there's no answer.

Only silence fills them up.

"Jimin"

"Mmh?"

"What about you?

Jimin stops for a moment. She lifts her head to face Aeri and then smiles at her. "I always want you, aeri"

Have you ever asked something that you already know the answer of it?

Yes

"That's a different thing, Jimin"

Aeri stares at her with empty eyes.

Jimin doesn't give her answer immediately.

"I like you too"

"and you like the other women too"

Jimin smiles and then nods her head. "and I like you the most"

Of course.

Aeri has always known about it. Since the first time. Even now. It's just a confession of her, which might Jimin already knew even before Aeri told her about it.

But, though she has already expected this answer for sure, she is wondering...

Why is it still hurt so bad?
