Description

A symbiotic relationship between an aromantic and an aual. 

 

Foreword

SinB gently presses her palm to her cheek and hisses at the stinging pain. She squints her eyes as she looks at her reflection on her Hyundai Sonata's shiny metallic black coating. 

"I should stop dating patrons, it's bad for business," she says harshly as she pulls her keys out of her coat pocket, before readjusting the camera bag hanging at her shoulder. 

Heck, maybe she should just stop dating all together. None of her relationships last long, mainly because of SinB's inability to feel things or her lack of enthusiasm when it comes to physical contact outside of ual activities. 

'So what if I don't want to cuddle after ? That's my personal preference!'

A muffled cry piqued her interest. It starts out as an abrupt hiccup that turns into a stream of soft whimpers. She steps away from her vehicle to follow the noises. Out of the corner of her eye she sees a small figure, hunched over and shaking like a leaf. 

'Huh, maybe I'm not the only one who got dumped tonight.' Misery loves company. She eyes the figure curiously. Judging from the size, it's definitely a woman. If she's lucky, she'll get some sympathy out of this. 

'Ugh, this is why my relationships didn't work! I'm such a ing douchebag...'

SinB gasps and stares in silence, captivated.

The woman is sitting alone at a bus stop with arms wrapped around herself, as she sobs softly. Long jet black hair hangs loosely, gently swaying in the cold breeze and framing her body in a fragile light. Her purse lays forlornly on the seat beside her. 

After a moment, SinB caught herself fumbling with the zipper of her camera bag. She can't help but feel particularly disgusted, almost taking advantage of someone's vulnerable state. She tries to push down the wave of shame as she trudges over the bus stop. 

"Excuse me, are you—" the woman flinches back when SinB gently puts a hand on her shoulder. 

SinB watches as she frantically wipes her face with the cuffs of her sleeves. Her sharp eyes peering through the woman's hair to examine every feature of her face. A smudge of dark mascara on her rosy cheeks, her red nose scrunched up and wet doe eyes. 

Those familiar brown doe eyes...

"Eunha unnie?"
