“Chaewon?”

Chaewon wouldn’t have heard that call due to wearing earphones but as she turned around to pay attention, it said otherwise. 

“What?” Chaewon asked.

“Is it me or Minju’s looking at you the whole time? It’s almost creepy.” Chaeyeon spoke.

“It’s nicely creepy. And I don’t mind about that.” Chaewon said. “Besides, even if she did that ever since I stopped tutoring other girls, it won’t be a bother because I love it.”

“Aigoo…” Chaeyeon sighed. “Young love.”

“Please. Eunbi does that to you too.” Chaewon snorted.

“She only does it occasionally. For Minju, she’s been doing it for days.” Chaeyeon spat.

The two girls looked back to see another woman being crowded by the ladies as she huffed through all the running. Chaewon tossed a bottle of water to the woman as she drank.

“I see you got some on your trail, Yena.” Chaeyeon said.

“Yena, I love you~” A fangirl screamed.

“Chaeyeon, marry me~” Another one spoke as she held a flyer of her.

“Chaewon, make me pregnant!” The last one made Chaewon choke herself.

Minju heard it loud and clear and stormed her way in front of the fangirls. She spreads her arms as if she’s protecting Chaewon from them. 

“I’m sorry. What was that?” Minju raised an eyebrow as she asked.

They hissed and lessened in number, making the other girls sigh in relief. Minju faced Chaewon who was as frozen as ice. But somehow, Minju’s hug made her heart warm.

“Awww~” Yena and Chaeyeon cooed.

“Aigoo…” Chaewon smiled and hugged Minju back. “…you didn’t have to do that.”

“But I must. My radar has been triggered. I hate it when they ogle to all of you, especially to my Chaewon.” Minju pouted as she cups Chaewon's face.

“Gomawo…” Chaewon mumbles through her squished cheeks.

Minju grinned then waved as she saw Wonyoung pinching her girlfriend's ear. Her said girlfriend made a face of pain as the two got to the group of friends.

“What has Yujin done this time?” Yena asked.

“She didn’t do anything wrong. I want to drag her this way.” Wonyoung shrugs.

Yena, Chaeyeon, and Chaewon reacted as Yujin cussed. “Yah!” Yujin almost punches Chaewon for being the loudest at reacting. “It hurts.”

“But I do that because I love you.” Wonyoung said, pecking Yujin's ear to make her feel better.

“Hyewon-san~” Wonyoung and Minju waved at a decent looking woman who was walking towards them, fiddling car keys.

“Hello, Wonyoung, Minju.” Hyewon greeted them with grace. “What’s up, dumbs?”

“What was that?” Chaewon gasped.

“It’s cool, dudes.” Hyewon said. “Don’t take it personally.”

“So much for greeting us.” Chaeyeon mumbled.

“What’s with my baby?” Eunbi came and ran towards Chaeyeon.

“She’s just utterly pissed of Hyewon sometimes.” Yena chuckled.

Eunbj always made Chaeyeon smile as the woman was eased of her little anger towards a friend. Eunbj pinched Chaeyeon's cheeks, making her smile. Yena and Hyewon sighed of the sight of the couples and wondered where their girlfriends were at.

Hyewon went to call someone when she felt hands covering her eyes. Hyewon could almost drop her phone but she held onto it and guessed the person. “Kkura?”

Hyewon was turned around as she got a peck on the lips. She looked to see Sakura smiling then hugging her.

“Hi, honey.” She said.

“Hey, Kkura.” Hyewon smiled.

“Okay…I’m outta-“ Yena was about to speak when someone tackled her and strangled her on the neck.

“I killed Mufasa!” The cute girl roared. 

“Baby, the play’s done yesterday. You’re strangling my throat…” Yena mumbled.

“Lion King has taken effect on her.” Sakura chuckled.

“Omo!” Yuri reacted as she checked her girlfriend. “Jagiya, are you okay? I’m so sorry~” 

“I’m fine.” Yena nodded as she eases . “Someone sure loved the play.” 

“I did~” Yuri smiled, holding Yena's arm tight. “Take me to watch the live movie this year.”

“Noted.” Yena winked. “Anyways, are we all here?”

“Nope.” Chaewon shook her head.

“All present and accounted for.” A girl came with her girlfriend on her back.

“This is fun, Hitomi-ah~” Nako cheered.

Nako and Hitomi met up with the rest and Sakura motioned everyone to go to the restaurant for a feast, Chaeyeon and Hyewon's treat.

Chaeyeon and Eunbi went ahead, followed by Hyewon and Chaeyeon. Hitomi was still carrying Nako, Yena was ogling towards a cute Yuri and Wonyoung and Yujin talked about books. Chaewon was walking as Minju was beside her, rolling through the concrete through Chaewon’s skateboard.

Six friends met such sophisticated women that won their hearts and the hearts of many but they were blessed, almost privileged to have the won the hearts of these sophisticated women. They struggled in admitting the mutuality of their feelings but all went well in the end. Now, they dated each other.

At the time, it was the end of one phase but the beginning of another one with each other.

+++

Fangirls were around the canteen as they look at six girls who were supposed to eat peacefully but all they could do was munch onto their meal like little rodents. The said fangirls thought they were all too cute.

These six girls were transferees but they have gained popularity when they came in due to their wealth, looks and skills. Not only that, they have been close since they were kids.

“Chaeyeon-ssi always opens a book and studies. She’s so cool.” One fangirl whispered.

Lee Chaeyeon may not be the eldest of the six but she was the leader. She was really feminine and she was smart, especially in the field of accountancy and business administration. She loved reading and writing stories of her own. She's serious, focused, and well-driven with her life goals.

“Omo-Hyewon-sunbaenim looks cool too. She might be butch at times but she’s still a lady.” Another fangirl spoke.

Kang Hyewon was almost like Chaeyeon’s long lost brother inside a female body. She was a tsundere and the only one in the group of friends who owns a Ferrari, a Bentley, even a Ducati. She has the bad girl image and acts boyish sometimes. She’s elusive, sometimes a sadist, but is actually the sweetest of them all.

“Hitomi-ssi…” A fangirl got the woman some iced coffee. “…for you.”

“Omo-thanks…” Hitomi said and drank lightly, making her squeal.

Honda Hitomi was a simple girl but inside was a bundle of complexity. She dresses simply and looked like the rest of the fangirls but she was special. She’s good at photography and graphic design and loved coffee. She was also approachable but she also had her bounds when talking to random people.

“Heads up!” Someone yelled.

Some girls played with the basketball and one of them tossed the ball too far, almost aiming at the table. Someone caught the said ball and sighed.

“Watch it,” said the person.

“S-Sorry, Yena-ssi…” The culprit apologized.

Choi Yena would’ve not stopped that predicament. She was a troublemaker after all. But beneath the body of mischief also lied a just soul. She can be hyper, lazy, and bothersome but she also maintained excellent grades. She can slack and procrastinate all she wants but she can still knock the best of the best out of the rankings. She was silent but deadly. She also loved sports and plants, especially orange tupils.

“Yujin-ssi is so cute I could just squish her with love.” The said culprit squealed.

Ahn Yujin was the youngest and the cutest of them all. She looked timid and innocent but she’s hyperactive and a bookworm, especially with the Harry Potter series. She intends to be quiet and had killer winks. She was so tall and a good DJ and anchor at the school’s radio station.

“They are just…wow…” Another fangirl spoke as she held her chest.

“But Chaewon-ssi is the queen of the squad. Such a beauty…” Another one spoke like a poet marveling a work of art.

Kim Chaewon was everyone’s favorite. She’s composed and quiet, but is really helpful and kind. She’s the most charming of them all, acting all flirty sometimes but she’s loyal. She’s good at skateboarding, writing novels, making caricatures, and programming.

The fangirls would go back to their usual businesses but they never stop talking about the said girls. They really adored them, even some made attempts to win their hearts. But as a familiar voice was heard, they realized something.
They were already taken.

“Chaewon-ah~~~”

Chaewon looked to the side and got up to meet the woman. Chaewon spreads her arms lightly and the woman hugged her tight.

“Hey, baby.” Chaewon spoke, making the woman blush.

“Hi.” She giggled, adding a kiss on Chaewon’s cheek.

“Hey, Minju.” Yena waved with the rest of the girls. “Have you seen Yuri?”

“No.” Minju shook her head cutely.

“For a person with a lot of charm, you had to get a cute girlfriend by the name of Kim Minju.” Chaeyeon said.

“So? She stole my heart is all.” Chaewon spoke, making Minju snuggle onto her while the rest chanted.

“Hyewon-ah~”

The butch of the six stood up and greeted her girlfriend with a bow and a kiss on the hand. 

“Aigoo…Hyewon and her ethical gestures.” Yujin sighs.

“Hyewon is always sweet to Sakura.” Minju said as she faced Chaewon. “Why don’t you do that to me?”

“I have my ways, Minju. In fact…” Chaewon kisses her hand. “…one of them is to always make you have anything you wish.”

And Minju loved that. Hyewon and Sakura got to their seats as the rest of the girls looked at the pair of couples before them. Hyewon glares lightly. “What?”

“Nothing. Now I’m wondering where Nako is.” Hitomi shrugs.

“Wonyoung too.” Yujin said, reading a book.

“Haha…Yuri called to meet me somewhere.” Yena said as she got her drink. “And I must go.”

They all bid goodbye as Yena left the place. Despite the fact that some fangirls chased her, the squad would’ve worried but they wouldn’t. Yena would be just fine.

Eunbi came out of nowhere, shocking the rest but not Chaeyeon. In fact, she was calm, greeting Eunbi with a kiss on the cheek.

“Does she really do that, Chaeyeon?” Hitomi asked.

“Yes. It’s natural.” Chaeyeon said, reading a book with Eunbi.

“JAGIYA~” Yujin gasped as she felt a touch by her shoulders and heard that voice.

“Omo!” Even Hitomi reacted when someone's arms wrapped around her.

“If it isn’t the two thirds of the mint chocolate squad?” Minju spoke.

“Hey!” Wonyoung and Nako reacted.

Yujin and Hitomi calm their girlfriends down and they all sat by their table. The campus crushes loved their time with their girlfriends but they could only sigh as their girlfriends got possessive.

Someone was trying to take a picture of Chaeyeon and Eunbi almost broke her camera. Hitomi was supposed to be given a can of soda from an admirer when Nako took it from her and drank it instead. Hyewon was asked by someone for her number and Sakura turned into a little pawn of Satan, telling the woman to buzz off. Yujin would’ve received a cute stuffed animal and Wonyoung took the stuffed animal, got rid of the person's name, and gave it to her girlfriend, saying that it was from her.
In Chaewon’s case, Minju was like a cute yet pesky bug, driving her girlfriend's fangirls off and making threats if needed. Chaewon would just let her be but when matters took for the worst, she would stop Minju with a hug. Just like right now, Chaewon had her long arm wrapped around Minju’s waist and the cutie pouted and calmed, all while hugging Minju back.

“Minju looks like a cute kid~” Nako and Hitomi cooed.

“I know. That’s why I love her.” Chaewon answered.

Minju grinned and snuggled onto Chaewon cutely. Chaewon hugged back like she was her protector.
Chaewon and the other friends understood their girlfriends of the defenses and they smiled, knowing that they’re loved by them and for that, they’re really thankful and blessed to have them in their lives.
