Irene absentmindedly taps on her phone, playing a game defeating monsters to pass the time. She clicks on another power up, trying to focus her attention on beating the boss but no matter how hard she tries, her attention keeps on going back to the woman sitting in front of her.

 

Not expecting their plans to turn out like this, Irene is still thankful. A night out drinking beer or walking across city parks is good and all, but she’d definitely prefer a night in with the woman who makes her heart skip a beat with one smile.

 

Irene glances at Wendy, still busy typing on Irene’s laptop. Her report is due tomorrow morning and that’s the only reason they’re here in her house. Of course, Irene was quick to offer her laptop and her home. Anything just so Wendy wouldn’t opt to cancel their plans.

 

“I think I need a break.”

 

Wendy stops typing and cracks her neck. She leans back and catches Irene off guard when she reaches for the hand fiddling on her phone.

Chapter 21: Even though they didn't ended up being together. I love hove Joohyun move on and move forward with her life. (still silently wishing they'll still end up falling together in a right place at a right time ☺️☺️)

thank you for sending me on a feels trip while reading this story. no matter how short the chapters were, every one of them evoked a distinct emotion as the story progresses. a bittersweet ending, but it's the kind that the characters definitely needed. also very realistic. thank you again for sharing your work, author. i wish you nothing but the best in the year 2020 :)

Chapter 21: In the end Irene is doing the right thing.
Forgive Wendy and herself, to let go what happened in the past and finally to move on.
Thank you so much for sharing this story to us.

Chapter 21: Well that's life. I wasn't expecting them to end up together anyway because it felt like they're better off that way. Thanks author and a happy new year to you :)
