When Shuhua returned home, she realized that something in her life, in Miyeon's life, had changed.
Miyeon began to behave differently: no, she met Shuhua with strong hugs, hot kisses, but something inside Shu said that Miyeon was different, as if hiding something.
Shuhua hasn't been home for a long six months. Going on a voyage, the girl was engaged in work, not simple, as one might think, because she was a sailor. An unusual activity for a fragile girl, but Shuhua has never been fragile either.
Miyeon is a child of art — raised in a family of actors, she, of course, followed in the footsteps of her parents, by her 25 having a large list of films, TV series, theatrical productions and so on.
Shuhua and Miyeon are distant poles; they met at school, being in different classes then, but then got into one. They kept in touch while studying at different institutes, and when they both graduated, they realized the depth of their feelings.
They began to live together, share life for two, empathize and so on, as it was with ordinary couples.
As time went on, Shuhua began to disappear more at sea, and Miyeon — on the set. At some point in time, it was bound to happen anyway. But... not so soon.
"You know, Mi, something is gnawing at me", somehow lying together on the bed, Shuhua turned to her girlfriend.
They held hands, but Miyeon managed to hold the phone and even correspond with the second free one. "Mm-hmm, what is it?" she answered after a short pause.
"Everything seems to be fine with us, but you are somehow different", Hua turned her head to her and closely watched the blonde.
She was actively typing and smiling with the same smile that she had previously met only Shuhua.
"Excuse me? I listened. Could you repeat that?" Yeon turned to her, putting the phone aside so that the screen looked down.
Shuhua stiffly twitched her lips into a semblance of a smile. She understood everything perfectly.
"I'm saying you're different. I feel that something is wrong", the tone of her voice was no longer the same. Shuhua spoke seriously, and she shoved her warmth towards Miyeon deep into herself so that it would not interfere with thinking sensibly.
"Another one?" She pursed her lips and looked guiltily at the brunette.
Inside, everything shrank, there was a lump in her throat, she wanted to hide herself or destroy herself — Miyeon did not know what to do. Probably tell the Taiwanese the truth?
"You know, Shu ..." — the actress began, completely taking her gaze away from the girl, "I do not know how it happened, but I ..." — it was obvious how this conversation was given to her with difficulty. But it was necessary to tell about everything. That's right. So necessary. "I was attracted to another girl…"
There was silence. Crushing, destroying.
Shuhua stared at the ceiling and tried to comprehend the words she had heard. It was painful. It hurt so much that I wanted to scream, beat the dishes against the walls. I wanted to sink through the ground, so as not to feel how my own heart was cracking. She loved Miyeon. How could she do this to her?
"Did you cheat on me with her?" very quietly, as if the voice of the broken Shuhua did not sound anywhere.
"Yes", the same poisonous answer, completely destroying Shu.
The night was given to both with great difficulty.
Early in the morning, the Taiwanese woman packed all her things and quietly left.
From home, from Miyeon's life, from everywhere.
She went on a long voyage in search of new memories, more pleasant, happy, alive.
She no longer crossed paths with Miyeon, she erased her from the memory of thoughts and hearts, although the latter often pined for the blonde.
It was better for everyone, so... it was necessary.
In the end, life continued its course, and on the way Shuhua — new bright horizons that will undoubtedly help the girl to overcome all difficulties and become truly happy.
