fake it till you make it

Mina packed what she think she’ll need for the day. The sun is merely out, but Jeongyeon is already knocking on her door, despite having her own key already. She rolled her eyes and went to answer the door.

“Hi,” a smily Jeongyeon is what she saw first thing in the morning. Her purple hair is let down, her eyes danced with impish glee. She doesn’t look like she drank more than seven tequila shots just a few hours ago. 

Mina wants to ask how did she manage to look this good given the circumstance, but she didn’t get the chance to, as Jeongyeon kissed her cheek and wrapped her arms around her giddily. 

“Hi,” is what Mina could only muster before she fell on a fit of chuckles with Jeongyeon being so happy and bouncy this morning. 

“Ready to go?” Jeongyeon let her go and let herself in to fetch Mina’s bag. 

“Where are we going, Jeong?” Mina asks as Jeongyeon pads her way out, “And why the need of swimsuit? It’s too cold to swim,” Mina follows up as she locks the door behind her.

Jeongyeon just looked back, wearing her signature smile that has a reputation of breaking every person’s heart with just the mere sight of it, not me, though, Mina thought to herself. “Shhh, just listen to the birthday girl, alright? It’s Jeongyeon day.”

Mina only sneered, “Yes, your majesty.” as she followed Jeongyeon closely to the parking lot.

They’ve reached her car and Jeongyeon opened the trunk to put Mina’s bag alongside hers. She rushed to open the passenger’s door and let Mina in before jogging on to her side. “You sure you brought everything?” 

Mina nodded with a hum. Jeongyeon leans over the center console, “Good, now kiss me,” playfully puckering her lips. 

Mina frowns almost instantaneously, seriously? “The day has only started and you’re already pushing it.”

The Korean only made her duck face, “What are you talking about, I’m only asking for a birthday kiss...”

“We already made out twice at midnight in front of your friends. No.” Mina dismissively says, her annoyance growing for the girl behind the steering wheel. 

Jeongyeon leaned back up and turned the ignition on, “I didn’t have anything to do with that, that’s all you.”

“Whatever.” Mina looked to her side of window, sending a message to Jeongyeon that she’s over this conversation. 

Jeongyeon drove out of the parking, she knows Mina doesn’t wanna talk further but she wants to tease her more, “Don’t act like you didn’t enjoy that.”

“Act?” Mina whipped her head to look at Jeongyeon whose eyes danced with amusement. She scoffed, “I don’t have to, your sloppy kissing is hard to enjoy.”

Her eyes only smiled their crescents as she watched the roadway. Jeongyeon knows why Mina's being like this and knew already what to do.

Need to feed Hungry Mina.

-

The pair ordered take out on their way and ate on the road. Jeongyeon drives while Mina’s in charge of feeding her. Mina suggested earlier that they should just stop for a while and dine inside. Jeongyeon agreed but hesitancy is on her face as she parked the car to a nearby restaurant. 

Mina sensed Jeongyeon’s uncertainty and asked what was the matter. When she let the Japanese know how far they still are to their destination, her decision instantly made a U-turn and agreed to eat in the car. 

Everything is sailing smoothly, the traffic is light and the sun shone bright. Everything is going according to plan, except when Jeongyeon noticed that the food Mina is feeding her isn’t the one she ordered, “Ya! This isn’t mine!” 

Mina just giggles as she playfully show Jeongyeon that she’s taking a spoonful of her mini tteokbokki, “Mina!” Jeongyeon whines with her mouth full of chapchae when she stole a quick peek at the girl beside her. 

“But yours tastes better...” she heard the Japanese softly mutter. Jeongyeon grumbled at her reason, “Then you should’ve just ordered the same!” 

When Mina didn’t answer, Jeongyeon took her eyes off the road for a second and glanced at her. She caught Mina’s little pout while still chewing. 

Aish. 

“Fine, give me that noodles,” upon hearing Jeongyeon’s words of defeat, Mina bursts out and chants ‘Yay!’ a few times, as if to rub her victory on Jeongyeon’s face more. She waves the bowl to goad Jeongyeon, teasing her wordlessly that she’s now got full custody of the tteokbokki. 

Mina does her little happy dance whenever she eats a spoonful of Jeongyeon’s food and honestly, Jeongyeon doesn’t care about the tteokbokki anymore, doesn’t care if she has to eat Mina’s sucky chapchae or whatever sucky food this girl would ever order. If this is what makes Mina happy, she’ll gladly let go all of her food, she’ll gladly let her steal her orders; but never without a fight though, because teasing Mina is the best part. 

-

“Okay, so favorite movie?” Jeongyeon asks Mina. They play 20 questions to, as per Mina, ‘prevent Jeongyeon from snoozing behind the wheel’. 

“Doctor Strange. You?” Mina threw the question back. As far as she remembers, the game isn’t supposed to go like this, but Jeongyeon said it’s ‘Jeongyeon Day’ so whatever she says goes. 

“The Notebook,” 

Mina couldn’t help the giggle that escaped her, The Notebook?! “Are you serious?”

Jeongyeon scrunched her face, eyes looking ahead, “What, it made me cry!”

“I-“ Mina was entertained to say the least, she’s been laughing soundlessly at all of Jeongyeon’s answer so far, “I just didn’t pegged you as someone who likes love stories, is all,” and I thought I was a basic girl. 

She just rolled her eyes at Mina’s attempt on teasing her for what seemed like the 89th time of the day, but much to Jeongyeon’s relief, Mina’s almost noiseless laugh has subsided and proceeded to ask for her turn, “Favorite ice cream?”

“Mint Choco.”

Mina just looks at her like she grew another nose. Jeongyeon didn’t have to see it, she knows Mina is looking at her that way, “You’re a weird girl, Yoo Jeongyeon,”

“I’m weird?” she scoffed, “You’re weird! You don’t have a favorite!” Jeongyeon knew this from their trip to Baskin-Robbins and Mina just told her to choose for her because apparently, the Japanese woman doesn’t have a particular preference. 

Mina just shrugged, “I just like them all the same. Ice cream is ice cream,” before sticking her tongue out. 

“Still weird. My turn, favorite drink?” Jeongyeon asks. Mina opened her mouth to speak, but the Korean follows up, “And don’t say lemonade because we haven’t gone to Jon Lemon’s in a week,”

Mina just rolled her eyes before answering, “Fine. Americano.”

Jeongyeon smirked, she successfully converted Mina from being a lemonade enthusiast to a coffee one, “Welcome to the Palpitating club,” 

Mina was about to ask the next question but Jeongyeon got curious on one thing, “What’s wrong with my Iced Espresso? You don’t like it anymore?”

“I still do, but it keeps me up at night,” 

Jeongyeon was ready to tease her and call her a weakling but Mina still has something to say, “That and your loud snores,”

“Hey! I don’t snore!” 

Mina just laughed at her, “Don’t whine at me for telling the truth, focus on driving!” trying to restrain herself from hitting Jeongyeon’s shoulder because she literally has their lives on her hands. 

Jeongyeon did as asked and waited for Mina to ask another question, “Past time as a kid?”

“Baseball and singing,” Mina’s eyes went a little wider, her brows lifted a little further when she heard the last one. She sings? “And oh, I also did aerobics,” and aerobics?!

“What kind of childhood did you have? Why can’t you say something like playing video games and building legos like normal people would...” Mina was both amazed and puzzled at baby Jeongyeon’s hobbies. 

Jeongyeon just chuckled, “That, too, but they came to my life a little later, like when I’m 14, so that wouldn’t count as my past time as a kid,”

“Your hobbies are growing on you backwards,” Mina pointed, but only as a joke.

The other woman just shook her head, “I wouldn’t say you’re wrong,” a little smile playing on her lips, “Is it video games and legos for you?”

Mina hummed, thinking whether she should let Jeongyeon know her like that, “Not entirely,”

This caught Jeongyeon’s attention and made her glance to her side, “Then what?”

“I did ballet and football,” the Japanese said as quietly as she can.

“Really?” Jeongyeon wanted to stop the car just to look at Mina’s expressions for longer, but she can’t, as they’re on a freeway. She resorts to stealing a lot of glances, instead, “Till when?” 

In every glimpse, she saw hesitance in her eyes, but Mina indulges her the new information, “Until junior high,” 

Jeongyeon would be contented if Mina were to stop sharing there, but she wouldn’t stop her, either, when she’s willing to tell all these on her own. 

“I did ballet almost half my life, soccer for a few years, but only because of Phys. Ed,” Jeongyeon heard her chuckle. 

When she looked at Mina, the girl only offered her an eye smile, “I was happy doing all those, even if I kind of suck at handling the ball and at running,” 

Jeongyeon smiled at the road, “You suck at running? You almost beat me last time, I had to fake getting a sprain!” trying to lift their mood up again to laughter. 

And she succeeded, because Mina’s gummy smile is on display again, “Cheater,”

“I’m as loyal as a dog to his owner, Myoui,” Jeongyeon jests, pertaining to another definition of cheater as she made an exit out of the freeway.

“That explains the slobbery kisses and your love for doing puppy eyes, then,” Mina holds back her laugh, she wants to tease Jeongyeon as hard as she can, especially now on her birthday. 

Jeongyeon turns on a street, her eyes searching for something, but her lips always wore a smile, as if she’s thinking of something amusing, “Ah, there you are,”

Mina knew Jeongyeon liked to talk to herself at times, but more often in third person. Of course, she was weirded out, but as time passed, she got used to it, and maybe, just a little maybe, she adapted it, too. 

They both looked up to the signs, Mina didn’t know what Jeongyeon was looking for but she just marvelled at her new surroundings. At first, she was wondering why she’s seeing a lot of skyscrapers, given that Jeongyeon implied that they’re going swimming. She was kind of expecting they’re going to the beach, but then again, you really can’t expect anything expected when it comes to Jeongyeon. The girl does everything her way; and her way is something Mina might never understand. 

She went in a building’s parking lot and maneuvered to park the car backwards between the two others. 

Jeongyeon looked back, her right hand on Mina’s backrest, the other on the steering wheel. Mina watched Jeongyeon as she parked the car. Her side profile is angelic.

Jeongyeon’s lips are slightly parted, her jawline sharper with the angle, her nose and cheeks both with faint pink hue, her eyes exude concentration and focus. Jeongyeon is... 

“Mina?” 

Mina blinked a few times, she didn’t realize Jeongyeon is already looking at her, “We’re here,” but the latter just smiled at her before getting out of the car. Was I staring?

Jeongyeon opened the door which startled Mina for a bit. The Korean only smiled crookedly, “You’re thinking of my slobbery kisses, aren’t you?”

Mina was quick to hit her shoulder, but Jeongyeon just laughed it off, “Don’t worry, you’ll get more of it later,” then she winked rather funnily, earning a gummy smile from Mina as she push her out of the way, “No, thank you,”

-

The entrance to the hotel alone is luxurious, everything looked golden and expensive. Mina was amazed, but a bit worried. How could a student like us afford to check-in on a hotel like this?

“Jeong, are you sure we went into the right hotel? How are we going to pay for our stay here?” Mina looked around to appreciate the decor as they walk through the automatic glass doors. 

Jeongyeon just chuckled, “Mina, you don’t have to worry about a thing.”

“Are you sure?” A bellboy asked for their bags as they walk further, “Everything here looks expensive. I hope you didn’t use all your money to get us here,” 

Mina fished out her card from her wallet and waved it before she pulled Jeongyeon close to whisper, “Anyway, we can swipe our way out of here if anything happens,”

Jeongyeon let out a laugh at Mina’s subtle way of saying ‘I gotchu’, “Mina, it’s off season. It’s okay, trust me.” 

Jeongyeon checked them in at the reception and Mina may or may have not liked the way Jeongyeon’s eyes shine whenever the concierge smiles a little wider than congenial at this Jeong-ass’ remarks. It’s not even funny, psh. 

“You’ll find your things inside your room. Your other request is being prepared now and will be ready shortly. Enjoy your stay with us, Miss Yoo, Miss Myoui.” she ended her spiel with a polite nod. 

Jeongyeon smiled her lopsided one and Mina couldn’t hold back the roll on her eyes. Flirting with the receptionist? Really?

Mina pulled Jeongyeon to the elevator and pushed for their floor, “Stop flirting with the staff,”

The doors closed and Jeongyeon didn’t hold back her smirk, “Why, were you jealous?” 

Mina only kept a straight face, “In your dreams, Yoo.”

-

“Jeongyeon, why?” Mina was looking at the bed alongside Jeongyeon. 

The Korean only scratched her neck, “It’s on promo, come on,”

Mina closed her eyes, collecting her thoughts. One bed is fine, it’s okay, I should be thankful. When she opened them, she smiled at Jeongyeon before she went to her bag, “It’s okay, the room is great. Thank you,”

Jeongyeon stayed rooted to her spot, eyes only looking to the bed’s direction with a slight curl of her lips downwards.

What’s going on in that little head of yours?

Mina walked up to her and clasped her cheek, “No sad faces on your birthday, and I told you, it’s okay. It’s just one night,”

Jeongyeon didn’t retract her pout, “but one bed means I’m going to sleep on the couch again,” 

And here I thought she was sad because she thought I didn’t like it. Way to go, Myoui. 

Mina chuckled, “Don’t worry about that. You’ll sleep on the bed tonight,”

Jeongyeon’s eyes literally lit up and flashed Mina her full smile, “Yes!”

Mina can only shake her head out of amusement, a small smile graced her lips. It really doesn’t take much to make Jeongyeon happy. 

Jeongyeon walked towards her bag and neatly picked up a small piece of clothing, “I’m just going to change into my swimsuit,”

Mina eyed the aquamarine fabric and gulped hard. That’s an awfully small of a garment. What kind of swimsuit is Jeongyeon planning to wear?

Jeongyeon didn’t wait for Mina to answer as she doesn’t even look like she will, and went inside the room. Mina, on the other hand, tried to distract herself by unpacking some of her things and preparing her own swimsuit. So what if I’m seconds away from seeing Jeongyeon in a swimsuit?

She wipes a stray sweat from her forehead, is the AC broken? Mina tries to deny to herself that she doesn’t care about what Jeongyeon will look like, but deep down, she’s anticipating it. Okay, so what if I want to see Jeongyeon in a swimsuit? It’s normal to anticipate on things. There’s nothing wrong with you, Mina. 

The door opened and Mina couldn’t peel her eyes away. Her mouth went dry as she suck a sharp breath; her heart raged, as if she’s seeing something so stunning for the first time ever. Oh my God... 

“Oh my God?” Jeongyeon chuckled at Mina’s reaction, “Is that your way of saying I look sexy?” she intensified her gaze and bit her lip in an excessive way just to make Mina laugh, but she got no reaction other than her stare. 

“Well?” Jeongyeon gave Mina a twirl, so the Japanese can have a better view of her body, “How do I look?”

Mina just continued to gawk at Jeongyeon. She’s wearing a lacey one piece. It’s intertwined laces start from her abdomen up to her chest, and when Mina looked closer, the laces are tied a bit loosely, allowing her a little view of Jeongyeon’s toned stomach and a bit of her cleavage. As Jeongyeon spun, her long legs flexed themselves and is inviting her over to get— WHAT ARE YOU THINKING, MYOUI MINA?! STOP.

“You look...” Gorgeous. “fine.” 

She mentally thanks her brain-to-mouth filter for not betraying her today. I’d never hear the end of it if I complimented Jeongyeon. 

“Oohhh, the Myoui Mina thinks I look fine? Thank God for the compliment!” Jeongyeon spreads her arms to the direction of the ceiling while she exclaims, thanking the deity for the ‘compliment’.

Mina rolled her eyes at Jeongyeon’s silliness but didn’t hold back her smile, “One slight compliment and you already thank God?” she shook her head, picking up her clothes. “Imagine if I said you look hot.” 

Mina immediately wishes she could take that one back. Shouldn’t have said that. 

“So you think I’m hot?” Jeongyeon sauntered with a smirk. 

Yes. “No!” Mina deflected, her insides panicking, trying to hold their fort together. One more slip and I’m out. 

Jeongyeon continued her amble, making Mina step back. She held her smug gaze against Mina’s flustered ones, “You admitted it just a few seconds ago,”

“I said– I... you imagine,” Mina stutters at her words, it’s failing her terribly and all she can focus on now is getting away from Jeongyeon’s advances. 

The Korean’s smirk only got wider, this might be the first time she made Mina stumble on her sentences. A deer caught in headlights.

Mina felt her back against the closet. She can hear her heart pound louder and louder as Jeongyeon get nearer and nearer. Shit. 

She held the cabinet’s knob for support as Jeongyeon traps her in between, “W-what are you doing?”

The taller of the two leans down as slowly as she can, not touching Mina in any way, “What do you think?” she breathes a whisper near her ear, sending tingles through Mina’s nerves. 

Mina closed her eyes shut; every beat, every pulse of her heart, does nothing to help her calm down. Jeongyeon’s hot breath trickles down to her neck and she knows any second, a contact will happen between them. 

Am I going to let her? 

Mina lets Jeongyeon. 

But Jeongyeon only looked at her closely, holding back a laugh. Look at this cutie’s face. 

Mina looked like she was trapped and tensed; she looked like she stopped breathing a few seconds ago and her expression is already sending a message of uncertainty, so Jeongyeon took a slight pity on her and pulled back. “Mina,”

At the sound of her name, her eyes flew open. Jeongyeon is just standing in front of her, a wry smile adorning her small face, “What are you doing?” echoing what she had asked earlier. 

Wide-eyed and a bit shaky, Mina gathered her thoughts. What am I doing?

Jeongyeon only snickered at Mina’s sudden muteness, “Did you think I was going to kiss you?”

Kiss. 

One word is enough for Mina to snap back to her usual self and immediately push Jeongyeon away, “Shut up,”

Embarrassed, she walked to where her bag is and got her red and white diamond patterned bikini. What the hell was I thinking?! She scolds herself inwardly, gritting her teeth at how dumb she probably looked to Jeongyeon. 

But that already happened and she couldn’t take back everything. Mina isn’t one to dwell on things, but she has a dig for revenge. Jeongyeon did it on purpose. 

With a mission on her mind, she left an amused Jeongyeon for the bathroom. She’s keen on teaching the Korean a lesson. You don’t mess with me and not expect a return of the favor.

Jeongyeon sat on the bed and was busy folding her clothes when she saw movement from the bathroom door. “Hey, do you wa-“

So the tables have turned. 

Jeongyeon wasn’t able to finish any of what she was doing nor what she was about to ask once she caught sight of Mina. 

God save me. 

Mina is wearing a smocked tube bikini with thin straps. It’s paired with a high-waisted bikini shorts with the same design as her top. 

Jeongyeon didn’t know what to do first, drool over Mina or pick up her jaw on the floor. 

Look at those abs, God... You really took your time on this one.

Mina walked with so much power that Jeongyeon couldn’t take her eyes off of her. Her stare alone is alluringly hypnotising, Jeongyeon was sure she’s being bewitched. She couldn’t utter a word, even when Mina stood between her legs. She’s frozen to her spot as Mina bends down close to her face, “What’s the matter?” she softly mutters, her voice the lowest Jeongyeon has ever heard, sultry in the subtlest of ways; she doesn’t know how to react. 

“Mina, you- I’m...” Jeongyeon is trying her hardest to keep her eyes on Mina’s brown ones. Don’t look down, don’t look down. She repeats a mantra on her head, as if she’s on a very high ledge, and if she looks down and get dizzy at the sight of the valleys, she will be in grave danger. But I AM in danger. If I so much make a mistake of even glancing down to those hills, Mina will kill me. 

Mina inched closer, allowing a distance close to nothing between their lips. Now you’re getting a taste of your own medicine. “I’m hungry,”

Oh, she’s hungry... Jeongyeon exhaled in relief, only to inhale sharply the next. Wait, hungry for what?!

Jeongyeon gulped hard, breaking eye contact with Mina. Looking anywhere else but at her chest, her abs, or at Mina’s entirety. She started to scoot up the bed when Mina wouldn’t stop chasing after the gap she’s trying so hard to put between them. Shit, shit, shit, shit. 

The panic in Jeongyeon’s eyes only goaded Mina to toy with her more, but she relents. She supposes Jeongyeon is already flustered enough. Poor baby. 

She slid her hands from Jeongyeon’s shoulders down to her wrist, wrapped her fingers around it and pulled back, taking Jeongyeon with her, to get her on her feet. 

Mina switched from alluring to her newly acquired skill from Jeongyeon, the puppy eyes; knowing it will bring playful Jeongyeon back to her. 

She added a little pout, just like what Jeongyeon does every time she wants to get something, “Can we eat a bit first please, Jeongyeonie?”

Mina saw the flit changing of expressions in Jeongyeon’s eyes, the Korean’s mouth slightly agape as she process what has happened. Jeongyeon isn’t just confused, she was bewildered. 

“What the heck was that, Mina?” she furrowed her brows, not understanding what just happened. 

Mina feigned innocence, “What? I just told you I was hungry?” but there’s a glint of mischief in her eyes. 

Jeongyeon only pursed her lips and looked a bit annoyed, “You don’t tell people you’re hungry sexily. That’s crazy,” she reached to her side for her denim shorts and wore it. Unbelievable. 

Sexily, huh? Mina hid a proud smile, so that worked. 

“Not my fault you found my way of asking sexy,” she shrugged and stifled a chuckle. She knows Jeongyeon’s frown will break any time soon, so she holds her hand and pulls her towards the door, “Come on, Mad Puppy, let’s eat something,” 

“Hold up,” Jeongyeon pulled them back and reached for her extra denim, handing it over to Mina, “Wear those,”

“What, you don’t like seeing my sexy butt?” Mina laughed but did as she was told. Jeongyeon forgot that she was supposed to be irked and chuckled, “I don’t like your sexy butt to get cold,”

Grabbing her plastic sling bag, she lets Mina pull her as they went out the door. A sudden realization made Jeongyeon shook her head, smiling; she’s finally figured out why Mina did that. “You did that as revenge, didn’t you?”

Mina looked up as they walk, raising an eyebrow, “Did it taste good?” 

My own medicine? “It would’ve, if only you really kissed me,” Jeongyeon jests, a grin already plastered on her mouth. 

The elevator doors opened and they pressed for the ground floor, “What is it with you and kisses?” the Japanese woman only glared.

“Nothing!” Jeongyeon laughs as she exclaimed while holding up her arms, as if she’s surrendering.  

Mina’s smile is threatening to break her own sham of a scowl, and Jeongyeon couldn’t find anything any more endearing. 

So she wraps an arm around Mina, lips on her hair, “I don’t know how many times I’ll tell you this, but Myoui Mina,” her nose pressed against the raven strands, inhaling Mina’s scent: Jasmine. 

“You’re so fucking beautiful.”

-

“Put this on me,” Mina looked at Jeongyeon as she holds something before her face as they order food from a stall. 

Aww, she actually wants to wear this?

Mina took the bracelet she gave to Jeongyeon earlier this day and wore it to the other’s wrist, “Can’t remember how I gave you this but do you like it?”

Jeongyeon grinned at the memory as she took the corndogs and gave one to Mina, “You wouldn’t wanna know how but I love it. Thank you,” 

Mina took a bite of her food before turning her head, question tracing her face, “Why wouldn’t I? I didn’t do anything embarrassing, did I?”

“Oh, no, no, no. You definitely didn’t do anything...” she peers down to Mina, letting her see the secret she’s hiding behind her eyes. 

Mina caught it and landed a hit on her shoulder instantly, “You’re hiding something!”

“I’m not!” Jeongyeon laughed as she jogged away.

Mina whined as she ate, grumbling at the Korean who only stuffed her mouth with food, not bothering to look at her anymore, “Jeongyeon!”

The taller of the two just shook her head continuously, snickering at Mina’s whining, “I told you, there’s nothing to tell!”

Mina finished her food first and threw the stick on a nearby trash bin before catching up, “Your eyes don’t lie,”

Jeongyeon twisted the water bottle’s cap open and handed it over to Mina. She hopes by drinking, Mina forgets what she was asking. 

"Is there a rule about eating and swimming?" Jeongyeon distracts her with an innocent question paired with an innocent look in her eyes. 

Which worked, because Mina shook her head lightly before handing her back the bottle, "It's a myth,"

Jeongyeon downed the remains of the drink and threw it along with her stick. Pulling Mina by the hand to a certain direction, “Come on, hot spring’s this way.”

The hot spring is compact but it’s almost as real as the ones Mother Nature has made. Vapor almost surrounded the whole of it, but you can make out that the natural stones complemented well with the faux rocks, mimicking nature perfectly. A small waterfall provided a steady flow, foliage was all around it’s rocks, completing the ‘hot spring in the middle of a forest but plot twist, there’s also a waterfall’ look. 

Of course, Mina knew all these were man-made, but still, she couldn’t hold back her awe at how amazing the place is. 

Jeongyeon was astonished as well, but there are far more important things to look at other than these artificial stones and waterfall; moments that only happen every once in a while, moments that she can only capture with her eyes. 

They say blue moons are rare, but I don’t think anyone has seen Mina’s eyes full of wonder. 

They say rare things vanish in a blink of an eye, so why would I let this one moment slip by?

Mina looked back at her with bright eyes and all smiles, and to Jeongyeon it’s worth every penny, every cent of whatever she’s paid. This is easily one of the expensive experiences she wouldn’t ever regret buying. An escapade where money will never be an issue; because this is all priceless.

“Do you like it?” she still probes, even though she already knows the answer. 

Mina only hugged her in sheer delight, letting out soft noises as she press her face against Jeongyeon’s chest, her feet doing that happy thing she always does when she’s really really really pleased about something.

Jeongyeon’s grin is almost splitting her face, her heart is beating with glee. Mina is happy. “Wait till you see inside,”

Mina audibly gasped, her orbs only shone further, “There’s more?!”

Jeongyeon nodded and laced her fingers with Mina’s as she pull her. Everything is going so well, it felt to them like nothing will turn wrong on this day; until they bumped into a certain someone.

“Hi, Jeongie,”
