Once they'd both adjusted to be in each other's lives again they started seeing each other more often, Soojin is thirty-three years now, she knows better than anyone what kind of life she wants to live, and it is a life shared with Yeh Shuhua, but she wouldn't rush things. One thing her past relationships have taught her is to rebuild their love with patience, to make a stronger foundation, they weren't those same teenagers in love anymore, they both carried the weight of their past mistakes, their doubts, their yearnings and honesty and patience is the way to build a healthy relationship.

Shuhua can’t help but think about how surreal it is to have Soojin back in her life, during her years in Japan she had casual flings, she met interesting women but she never liked any of them like she liked and likes Soojin, Soojin who manages to be both a new woman and the same girl she fell in love with years ago, who still makes a point of cooking for her whenever she can, who is still embarrassed to sing for Shuhua even after having performed on several stages with the Royal Ballet, Shuhua thought it was the cutest thing to see fans approaching Soojin to ask for an autograph

-How do you feel being famous Jin ah?

-I am not famous, we are just in an area of the city that has many dance schools, that's all

Soojin replied extremely red and Shuhua kissed her cheek

-For me you are the most beautiful and famous ballerina there is.

-Stop it baobei

They laugh for a moment before falling back into a comfortable silence, not needing to talk to fill the moment, they kept walking towards the dance school where Soojin taught, both are busy women but they find their rhythm, some days Soojin is so busy with her rehearsals and classes that Shuhua can only see her she stops by the school and then there are those days when Shuhua stays up late grading tests and setting up class schedules and it's Soojin's turn to show up at the university with dinner and a distraction.

Lately it felt like Soojin's apartment was just as much as Shuhua´s home as the one she rented, she'd taken to sleeping there so many nights that most of her clothes is there, Soojin even bought a second toothbrush to lay in the bathroom beside hers

-I forgot that the books I ordered would arrive last week, I'll have to stop by the apartment and pick them up

Shuhua complained in frustration as she walked out of Soojin's bathroom in just a towel.

-I think you should change your mailing address here

Soojin said while enjoying the sight of a Shuhua looking for her nightgown in her drawers

-Maybe it's a good i
