That's My Girl (Dahmo)

“Are you sure you’ll be alright?” Momo asked for what seemed like the twenty-fourth time,

“I’ll be fine.” Dahyun smiled, a lie but she didn’t want Momo to know that,

Momo’s elite dance troupe had made it to the finals of a pretty big dance tournament in Japan. When they’d first heard they’d made it all the way to the finals Momo and Dahyun had been so excited - until they realised Dahyun couldn’t go. Momo would be choreographing and extremely busy for the days they were there which would leave Dahyun alone in a a strange country. Dahyun had only just got to a point where she could leave the house to go shopping with Momo and even that still took a lot of mental preparation. Upon the revelation that there was no way Dahyun could go with her, Momo had originally said she wouldn’t go and would send Kei in her place. However, her girlfriend knew how important this competition was and it would mean a lot for Momo’s students to have their favourite dance teacher there.

So Dahyun told her to go with them.

They had argued all night about it and in the end Momo agreed, providing all their friends knew and would keep an eye on her. It was going to be the first time since the….event in which Dahyun would be without Momo. She was nervous - as to be expected - but just because her own life had stopped due to what happened shouldn’t mean that her girlfriend’s life had to stop also. Now she and Momo were both stood by the doorway waiting for the text to say the taxi had arrived to take Momo to the airport.

“It better hurry up, I said I’d meet the girls there in about,” Momo checked her watch, “Twenty-three minutes!”

“You got everything?” Dahyun asked,

“I think so, my passports in my pocket and Kei has the tickets.”

Her phone beeped to say the taxi was there. Momo looked up and smiled at Dahyun, “Are you sure you’ll be okay? I can still cancel!”

Dahyun took a deep breath and help her hand, squeezing it lightly, “Go on, you’ll be late.”

“Okay,” Momo sighed, “But tell Sana to call me if there are any problems!”

“Bye Mo!”

Once the door had closed Dahyun took a deep breath. She was alone for the first time in a long time. During the day she had everyone over, they’d keep her distracted and entertain her long enough to make her forget her anxieties. But when night rolled around the silence was deafening, Dahyun would lay in bed all alone and every small sound would put her on edge. What if it was him? What if he came back and tracked her down? She missed Momo, she needed the girl here. Just her girlfriend’s presence helped to let her sleep. Without her all Dahyun could do is toss and turn until eventually the sun rose and Jihyo came to make her breakfast.
