The gentle night breeze that would occasionally blew never help to calm Byul's nerves, not even a bit. When the next breeze blew, Byul fluttered her eyes close as she took a deep breath in and slowly exhale through her parted lips while opening her eyes. She then turned to her right where her love, Yongsun was sitting.

"So ... Tomorrow is the big day," Byul stated. Hearing that, Yongsun turned her head toward Byul and a gasped of shocked escaped through her lips as she was met by Byul's soft gaze on her.

"Byul-ah,"

"So the dress that you're wearing tomorrow, is it long or short?"

Yongsun knitted her brows tighter as she kept her gaze on Byul.

"Now, I hate myself for not being able to join you and the girls on your wedding dress hunting," 

"I said stop it, Byul," Yongsun reprimanded and glared harder. Ignoring it, Byul flashed a small grin with her nose muscle clearly shown as she inquired further.

"I'm guessing it's a short one then," Byul's brows then knitted and she wrinkled her nose, as if showing her distaste before she added, "you'll look better in a longer one though"

"Byul, I meant it when I told you to stop. Please stop hurting yourself," Yongsun's tone went a few octaves higher as she was getting more and more frustrated with each passing second. She was frustrated with Byul for adding salt to her own wound, but above anything, she was more frustrated at herself for she knew, that she was the one who inflicted the pain that constantly lingered behind those pair of eyes.

"Everything hurt when it came to you," letting out a shaky breath, Byul continued, "even sitting here next to you, hurt,"

"Then why? Why do you keep hurting yourself? Why do you still choose to stay, when you knew how much it hurt,"

Byul sighed. Tearing her gaze away, Byul brought their linked hand up and gave a lingering pack on Yongsun's knuckles.

"Why?"  Yongsun asked.

Byul set her gaze back to Yongsun's orbs and Yongsun was shocked at the raw emotion behind it, the pain, the hurt and the desperation that Byul failed to hide. But amidst all those, there was still a tinge of love that managed to flash through that pair of mesmerizing eyes.

"Because it's you,"  Byul started.

"And because it's love" Byul continued a beat after.
