Yoohyeon and Dami arrived first on their spot. The four girls have decided to spend the weekend together before their midterms arrived. They prepared the mats and waited for the other girls to arrived. Minutes later, Handong and Jiu had arrived with the food they prepared for the day. 

"Minji?" Yoohyeon asked hopefully. She sat beside Jiu, smiling ear to ear.

Jiu was sitting at the corner of the mat placing the food carefully while Handong and Dami were talking by the swing. Yes, Jiu decided to put up a small swing hanging on the tree a year ago. Yoohyeon was the one who suggested it but things happened. She decided to still do Yoohyeon's wish, hoping that the younger girl would still come back.

Jiu smiled and shook her head as she took out a lunchbox, especially for Yoohyeon. "Special tarts for Ms. Kim Yoohyeon."  

"Hehe, Thank you~" 

Jiu gave her only a small smile. She was happy to be able to do this for Yoohyeon again, but she wasn't dumb. She notices everything but acts unbothered so she wouldn't worry the girls.

"Dongie~ Here! Have some!" The younger girl had speedwalked to where the chinese girl is. Yoohyeon pick a large tart and gave it carefully to Handong.

I'm right. It's not the same. See?

She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Dami smiling at her. Dami sat beside Jiu as they watched the other two talk. Yoohyeon was sitting at a big root while telling Handong about her increase grades in Mandarin.

"Don't worry. Dongie won't steal your girl. And! She wouldn't cheat on me." Dami tried to make the atmosphere lighther. Jiu could only chuckle at her friend's words.

"You know it's not that."

"Hmm. Just give her a little time. You know how she was so dependent to you back then. Leaving you was her choice and she knew too well that it was a wrong one. I'm not as caring as you by actions and Dongie doesn't want to replace you. It's just that Yoohyeon needs someone like you and Dongie being your best friend, the both of you have some similar traits. Dong's like a mother you know. So don't worry. She doesn't see you as a 'mother'." 

"That was once what her classmates see and yeah, I'm just her best friend."

Maybe if they didn't say that, I would've been more confident.

"It was all in the past Jiu. She doesn't really care about what they said, right? She didn't care for on what people think unless it's what you think too. Her heart once belongs to you. I'm not keeping your hopes up for nothing, Jiu. I've known her since we were little. Don't give up on her. It's only you that I can entrust Yoohyeon with. No one has ever cared for her and loved her the way you do."

"Do I still stand a chance? I spend time almost everyday with her, and I notice everything Dami. She still wants her Singnie back. I was her first love. Was."

"Am I hearing this right? You sound like you want to give up already. You didn't wait to get to be with her for 2 years just for nothing."

"I didn't know she had a girlfriend. Moreover, love someone who loved her back. She thought I didn't."

"And it's because you let what those people think get to you. I'm not blaming you but don't you trust Yoohyeon? She had a girlfriend. A girl who didn't treat her right. I didn't tell you because it was our deal. That I'll only try to convince Yoohyeon, and it's all up to her. That I can't just force her to meet up with you. You said you'll wait. I know that Singnie was my friend, well I'm kinda forced to be because of Yoohyeon. Don't get me wrong, she is nice enough, but I didn't like her for Yoohyeon. Then see, she did something I couldn't just forget. She cheated, Jiu. Yoohyeon is my bestfriend. And you are my best friend. I see and notice everything too. I won't let both my best friends end up hurting just because of a friend. Yoohyeon's too nice to even get mad for too long. She realizes stuff but she would still choose to see the 'good' side of people, even no matter how much they've hurt her. That woman isn't for Yoohyeon. You might or might not be too. But you wouldn't know if you'll let it pass again this time. You are special to Yoohyeon. Very special. She might not be able to express it fully again this time and she might have built her barriers, but she misses you. And she loves you. Her one and only Minji. I know you can see it in her eyes. You just have to make her love you the same and as much as before. You know what? As to what I've seen, her love for Siyeon didn't even reach h
