Why don't you try asking now?

[...]

She opened her eyes and saw Hyejin looking at her gently.

"Come here, hug me... You're my girlfriend now."

Jeon smiled, that was the least romantic request possible, but it was ok, they were now dating.

Their future would at least be promising.

Hyejin approached Eunji and gently lay down beside her, finally stretching her arms and feeling the young Kim let herself be enveloped in her arms and they remained like that for a long time.

[...]

Eunji played with Hyejin's disheveled strands, the two were in the dark of the room and didn't even speak.

The silence was comfortable and staring at the sky felt good enough for a long time.

But there was the simple feeling of curiosity and interest between them.

Well, they were already girlfriends... Well, maybe they needed to confirm that once or twice... Heavens, were they really dating?

This was funny on so many levels. It sounded like a good joke.

Hyejin was already thinking simply at the moment that she should face Donghae, that would be really troublesome.

But who cares? They were now dating.

Hyejin couldn't stop smiling and Eunji just watched the movement above her, that girl was really restless and noisy.

She ruffled her soft hair, earning a disapproving look in return.

She gently held Jeon's face and kissed him.

The kiss was soft and delicate, they enjoyed each other.

Hyejin could have her hair messed up by her girlfriend... Well, just sometimes.

That would be really annoying if she did it too often.

Eunji definitely looked like she liked to annoy others for the sheer pleasure of it, maybe she had her hair messed up more often than she would have liked.

Maybe that was the price of having a girlfriend? Okay, she would.

Eunji really wasn't romantic, she liked to be practical in her relationships, but she would gladly take good care of Hyejin.

She looked so beautiful and cute.

Hyejin enjoyed the view of the apartment together with the sound of Eunji's breathing, a feeling of calm rising in her heart.

Until finally the silence was broken. "Are you still willing to be my girlfriend?"

Eunji was a little hoarse and looked tired, Hyejin rested her chin on her chest and stared at her.

Hyejin's natural beauty was enviable, her hair messy, her skin smooth, her lips red.

They were really talking about dating, it seemed very curious for her to see herself in that situation with whom she had been wanting to kill for a short time.

Well, she didn't want to kill her anymore and this was a decision with no turning back. There was nothing to think about or brood over, so they would just stop looking at Eunji as their target.

Her target was now another and she even had a bullet ready for him.

Hyejin spoke with an intrinsic interest, maybe that was a joke or a whim of Eunji, she wanted to confirm and solve all her doubts.

"Do you really want a date?"

Eunji lightly caressed her almost-girlfriend's face... Well, maybe girlfriend.

Did seconds really matter? She had already decreed that they were dating and Hyejin didn't deny it, so they were definitely dating.

She nodded in agreement, she definitely wanted to. "I want it and you?"

Hyejin smiled getting up from the bed, they needed to eat and watch the movie that Eunji had promised. After all, they were dating and could stay in that bed at another time. "Let's date..."

She bent down slightly bringing her face to Eunji's and kissed her... She was very happy.

She grabbed the sheets and pulled them hard. "...But then I want the part about going to Paris and you saying nice things in front of the Eiffel Tower... I never forget what I'm promised... Let's have a pizza to eat."

Pulling back the sheets it was impossible not to notice how completely scarred she was, it was really funny how she had marks all over.

Eunji was taken by surprise and her only attitude was to hold the cloths that were ripped from her.

It was really cute to see a slight trace of shyness in Eunji.

"Leave me covered… Do you want to go tomorrow?! I buy the tickets right now."

Hyejin just stared in disbelief, could rich people really come and go so easily? Didn't she have a business to run?

"I've already touched on everything you're trying to cover... Stop being inconsequential, tomorrow we have work to do... Get up, let's eat our pizza, with any luck the beers stay cold."

Eunji smiled, it really felt like a date. "I'm going to take a shower do you want to go putting the beers in the drinks fridge? Lower the temperature and they will freeze quickly."

Hyejin picked up some of her clothes lying on the floor and put them on quickly, she didn't mind nudity in front of Eunji, but she still didn't feel intimate with the house...

How could she explain? Something in that house made her feel like she was being watched, she should do a second thorough inspection.

She definitely didn't like that kind of feeling.

Well, she would find out what was going on soon enough.

Putting on only her underwear and her blouse, she wished she could shower and change into her pajamas.

Hyejin had really prepared to spend a good night with Eunji.

"Okay, I'll do that and come shower after you."

Young Kim agreed and then stood up. "Right."

In slow steps she walked to the bathroom and when she turned on the light she saw her state, she smiled satisfied, Hyejin had really worked hard that night.

She got under the shower and started a quick shower, she couldn't go a day without washing her hair, so she took the opportunity to spend a good few minutes feeling the hot water hitting her head and running down her back.

Her scars were always painful when the water was too hot, she quickly turned the temperature down. The skin on her back was really sensitive, even though she'd gotten a tattoo to cover up most of the marks, they were still there and still painful.

Anyway, there was nothing to be done, it was natural.

She had visited some specialists and many said that healing could take time, especially after she had the huge tattoo.

Some just suggested that she wait and seek psychological support.

Well, anyway, she just ignored it all.

She didn't have the time or interest to look for a solution to that at the moment.

Maybe another day.

Eunji was pulled from her thoughts when she heard Hyejin's voice come from inside the bathroom.

"Can I shower with you?"

Young Kim smiled as she made room for Jeon to enter.

"Come on, help me rub soap on my back."

"Okay."

Hyejin quickly undressed and went under the hot water, taking advantage of the proximity to distribute kisses on Eunji's neck and letting herself be wrapped around the businesswoman's arms.

Kim released her and turned around, handing her the soap.

Hyejin stared at the tattoo that camouflaged a series of scars, she wanted to ask how she got those marks, but she also wanted Eunji to feel free to speak on her own about it.

Eunji could feel the light touch on her skin, she liked how her girlfriend treated her like a delicate and precious object.

Jeon tried to be gentle and not use too much force, her skin was so delicate and clear.

The tattoo was beautiful and brightly colored.

So extensive that she could be sure it took several hours to make.

Eunji could feel her girlfriend's curiosity, she was willing to tell everything whenever she expressed an interest in knowing.

"Aren't you going to ask about how I got these marks?"

Hyejin sighed, she was afraid to ask about those marks.

"I'm waiting for you to trust me enough to tell..."

Kim turned to face Hyejin and kissed her. "Why don't you try asking now?"

She already trusted Hyejin, there was no reason to wait any longer to tell this story.
