Chapter Text
At first, she didn't know where to go. She couldn't get Minji to give her any signal for what to do next and she was starting to think that the goddess had left them on their own as if she's didn't care. Just like Siyeon, a careless human who didn't think about her when she hid her past from her.
She felt like at least the goddess of luck was on her side when she received a text from Handong, asking her if she was okay after how she was feeling at the cinema. She had told them that her period had come and she felt really sick and that's why they went home early, but of course that wasn't the case and they definitely noticed.
Yooh: Hey Dong, do you mind if I spend the night there? I'll tell you everything you want to know.
Dong : Yeah sure, don't feel pressured to tell us anything though, we don't want to invade your privacy.
The way to their house wasn't that bad and there were still a couple of buses she could take, so she decided to go with them, in hopes of forgetting about everything she kept thinking about. Maybe they could help her sort her mind out and shed some light into how she was feeling since she couldn't quite describe it by herself.

"Hi there big baby, come here."
Bora's soft voice and motherly side was something not many people had witnessed in public at least. At home she spent too much time (as Handong herself said once) treating their cat Nannan as a baby, spoiling him as much as she could when the chinese girl wasn't looking so that she didn't get scolded.
"We made some hot chocolate, want some?"
Yoohyeon nodded and the blonde girl gave her a mug after talking her coat. She was taken to their living room where they had some sweet food laying around on the table. The brunette noticed that there were some of her favorite snacks and she couldn't help it, she felt sad remembering the times where she and Siyeon would stay up late trying new snacks and combinations of them until their stomachs hurted.
"So, is everything okay at home? Is Siyeon treating you well?"
"Yeah, I just have too much going on in my head right now."
Both girls took a seat next to her. They knew that was going to be a long night but they didn't mind at all, their friend needed some help and they were there for her.
She couldn't tell them about her death or the time she spent as an angel or how she was sent to help Siyeon, so instead she told them about the blue haired girl and how she never told her about her troubled past and kept it as a secret from her. They were shocked to hear about it and confused about why she had decided to tell her about it on the cinema, but they didn't want to question it since they didn't know the girl well.
"I feel betrayed, I trusted her with my own life and she lied to me for weeks. I don't know how to feel about this, should I never go back?"
"Is that what you want? To leave that house and go somewhere else? We can let you stay in if you want."
But what about Siyeon…
Yoohyeon thought about it for a second and she shook her head. Something about leaving that place felt wrong, she definitely didn't want to do that.
She couldn't leave the girl she promised to help now, they didn't have much time left and they didn't know if they were doing well on their task or not. She couldn't let her die.
"No… I… I can't leave her alone Bora, she needs me and… I feel like I need her too."
"Yoohyeon, do you like Siyeon?"

When did they go to sleep? They didn't know, and they didn't care. The brunette slept on the couch, she didn't feel like moving from there and she fell asleep on Handong's lap after she broke down in tears for the third time that night.
She woke up at noon when the short girl woke her up asking her to eat something with them, she knew she was going to need that energy. And once she left their house, her legs started to feel weak. Was she really ready to confront Siyeon?
Anxiety was starting to get her, she felt lost, as if she didn't know the way home already after weeks of going back and forth between both houses from time to time, her mind started wondering what would happen once she got there and the different outcomes she was thinking about, made her feel like crying again.
Yoohyeon needed to look strong, unfazed by what happened last night, and she hoped Minji would give her that strength so that she could get through that day without feeling like she failed her mission.

Once she arrived at the doorstep and was ready to open the door, she heard the sound of a piano coming from inside.
Did Yubin play the piano too?
She entered the house and followed the sound of the music, which led her to Siyeon's bedroom, something she wasn't expecting to see was the blue haired girl playing a keyboard with easiness and pouring all of her emotions into the performance she was giving to no one but the intruder that was now listening.
"What song is that?"
Siyeon jumped from the shock and almost hit her toe with her desk in the process, she wasn't expecting her to be back home that early, she was expecting her to be gone for a week at least.
"It doesn't have a name."
Silence quickly engulfed the room, and they both didn't dare to look at each other in the eyes.
"I'm sorr-"
"I'm an assh-"
They both looked at each other and hid a laugh behind their hand. Yoohyeon got closer to her and sat by her side on the bed.
"I'm sorry, I should've thought about how you must've felt trying to keep that away from me to protect me."
"No, I'm the one who's sorry Yooh, I'm an asshole and I didn't think about how you would feel about it, you needed to know."
The blue haired girl took her hand between hers and kissed the back of it, realizing what she had done seconds after, widening her eyes since she didn't even think about doing that.
"Thank me later."
She heard a voice say in her head. She knew who that was.
"Siyeon I… I like you, a lot. Last night I realized how much you meant to me and I can't thank you enough for helping me through the weeks I didn't know who I even was, I thought I was an angel but I think I found a real one right here, deep down all of those walls you put up in front of everyone, even your closest friends and even myself."
Yoohyeon tapped lightly her chest, where the heart should be and smiled at the latter. She didn't mind if her feelings weren't reciprocated at all, she just wanted to make sure that the girl she was in love with was going to be alive once she failed her own mission to stay alive.
To her surprise, she felt Siyeon's lips crashing against her own. Her hands were now caressing both of her cheeks, while the other girl grabbed her shirt and pulled them closer.
The kiss left them breathless, and their minds were going too fast to process anything that was going to happen to them, they didn't care and they only wanted to feel each other's warmth.

Nighttime arrived, and Yubin came back home with a very tired and sleepy Gahyeon on her back, they stole a glance and smiled at each other. She didn't know how but she always knew what was happening with just looking at them in the eyes.
They had spent the entire evening cuddling on the couch, the keyboard long forgotten on her room until they went back to sleep and Yoohyeon asked her to play the song she was playing before.
"You should write it down and give it a name, it's beautiful."
"Not as beautiful as you."
That night before falling asleep, Siyeon wrote down as much as she could remember about the song, glancing at the now sleeping girl on her bed from time to time to keep herself awake.
She also gave it a name.
"Her Song"
