Mimi P.O.V.

The silence breaks, as HyoJung unnie comes into the room with the snacks and tea she prepared.

I'm actually kinda thankful for this, since I wouldn't have known what to say to YooA after finding out about her condition.

HyoJung looks at me and says:

"So, from the paper in YooA's hand I take it that she has told you about her condition already, Mi Hyun-ah."

I nod my head and ask her:

"Since when has YooA been mute, unnie? Didn't she give interviews and press conferences back in the days?"

HyoJung unnie is silent for a moment, as she then answers me:

"Yes, she did. You know, actually she lost her voice two years ago and that was also the main reason why she chose to end her carreer."

Now that makes sense to me. However, I still wonder what the reason for loosing her voice had been...

HyoJung soon leaves YooA and me alone again, since she has some things to do.

So, YooA and I are alone again. Suddenly the puppy comes running over to us and looks at its owner expectantly.

YooA takes out a little red ball from her pocket and throws it into the room. The puppy immediately starts to run after it eagerly, in order to fetch it and bring it back to its owner.

My heart is warming at this sight. YooA seems very happy in the little pet's presence.

I'm surprised however, as the puppy comes back and lays the ball beneath my feet.

I can't reach it though, since it's too far away from me. My heart skips a beat, as YooA grabs a hold of it and hands it over to me.

A wave of electricity is rushing through me when our hands slightly come in contact with each other for a short moment.

What is this feeling? YooA smiles at me now and I return the smile. It seems like time has stopped between us somehow.

I return from my daze, as the puppy has started to bark softly, in search for attention.

I throw the ball as far away as I can and then it starts to run after it happily, making me giggle at it's cuteness.

We continue to play like this for a while, until the puppy finally jumps on YooA's lap where it curls together like a ball and falls asleep in exhaustion soon after.

YooA and I sit next to each other for a while longer in a comfortable silence. We both the puppy's fur from time to time, which is really calming somehow.

Both of our cheeks are heating up slightly, as our hands yet again accidentally come in contact with each other.

The same feeling of electricity rushing through me takes over me at this and my heart is oddly beating faster.

I cough slightly and decide to get rid of the awkwardness, as I ask her:

"By the way, what is your puppy's name, YooA?"

She takes her pen and the notebook and again writes something down. It actually takes quite some time and I am rather confused at this. Does it have such a long name?

However, once she shows me her answer to my question I understand why it took her so long to write it. 

"Actually, I haven't named it yet, since HyoJung unnie only brought it over as a surprise yesterday."

I nod my head in understanding and tell her:

"I see. Well, do you know, if it's a boy, or a girl?"

She shakes her head. Hm, that makes the matter more difficult. Maybe we could give it a gender neutral name.

Since it is so cute and fluffy, a name that's fitting those attributes would be fitting.

I'm left stunned, as YooA smiles at me and shows me another note. It says:

"What is your nickname, Mi Hyun-ah?"

Why does she want to know this now? I gulp down heavily and answer her:

"My friends in school used to call me Mimi. Why are you asking this, YooA?"

She grins at me, making my cheeks heat up again and writes down her answer. My heart is oddly beating faster, as I read her answer:

"Since my puppy brought you into my life and it seems to like you as much as I like you I will name it Mimi after you."

Tears are in my eyes, since I am so touched by her words and this sweet gesture. She comes over to me and hugs me tightly, sending my heart aflutter.

I inhale her scent deeply now. It's a mixture of all kinds of things that put together smell simply intoxicating.

Just what is going on with me? I've never felt this way before. It's like I'm walking on air and I don't want to come down again.

YooA has loosened her hug on me again and I gasp in surprise, as she rubs my cheek softly.

As I notice the time I get shocked. It is nearly ten in the evening already! 

My stomach is grumbling, as I haven't eaten anything since breakfast today. Well, despite the snacks before that is.

I speak up now:

"YooA it is really late and I should go home now."

She shakes her head eagerly and quickly writes down something.

"Since it is already dark outside and HyoJung unnie hasn't returned home yet, I would suggest that you stay here overnight.

We have a spare bedroom that you can use. Be my guest,Mimi. I'll cook dinner now, okay? Call me, whenever you need something."

At this she makes her way over to the kitchen. I call out after her:

"Thank you, YooA. You are really kind."

I'm really excited to sleep over at my rolemodel's house...
