See You Later | Ryeji

"I can't be so sure, can I?" Ryujin sarcastically said.

"Just take a sip." Lia insisted.

"Don't they have a game tomorrow?" Yuna asked.

"Oh yeahhhhh" Ryujin said out of realization.

"Oops, no more drinking today, unnies" Chaeryeong said, putting down the bottle in Ryujin's hands.

"We'll be back tomorrow then" Lia stubbornly said. "I'm getting both of u to try this no matter what"

...

"YAH YEJI" Lia suddenly yelled.

"Oops" Yeji said, being caught eating Lia's food. "It's not like you'll finish it anyways, I'm doing u a favour"

"Shut up"

----

A few hours later, the girls finished their food and finished watching a movie.

"I'm tireddd" Ryujin yawned. "I'm going to sleep"

"Dibs on couch" Chaeryeong said.

"Me 2" Yuna said.

"How bout us?" Lia asked.

"The floor works for me" Yeji said.

"Yah! Who's side are u on?" Lia exclaimed.

"Mine." Yeji replied.

"I didn't bring clothes tho" Yeji said.

"None of us did, unnie" Chaeryeong said.

"U guys are absurd" Ryujin said, rolling her eyes.

"I didn't know u knew how to use that word" Yeji commented.

"Shut up" Ryujin mumbled.

"Or what?" Yeji challenged.

"You're sleeping on the floor with no blankets" Ryujin replied.

"How inconsiderate!" Yeji gasped.

Meanwhile, the other three are just watching this play out while thinking the same thing.

'They'll be a cute couple'

After showering and changing, all of them are preparing to sleep.

"Hey Ryeong" Ryujin called out.

"Hm?" Chaeryeong responded.

"Did u bring ur jersey?" Ryujin asked.

"Nope. I'll ask Chaeyeon unnie to bring it for me tomorrow" Chaeryeong replied. "I'll just borrow ur clothes again tomorrow"

"Ah well, perks of having siblings" Ryujin said, returning to her room.

"I feel bad for Ryujin unnie" Yuna said.

"Why?" Lia asked. She's the only one in the group that wasn't aware of Ryujin's condition.

"Well, simply put it, she's always wanted siblings, but her parents died in a car crash so..." Chaeryeong replied.

"Oh... Now I understand everything" Lia replied.

"Hm, that's why Chaeyeon unnie makes sure to look after her when she's around" Chaeryeong said.

"Hey Yej" Lia called out.

"What" Yeji replied sleepily.

"Make sure to look after Ryujin when u guys get together-" Lia said.

"Oh my god" Yeji rolled her eyes and turned her body away from her best friend.

"I can't tell if u love this or hate it" Lia said.

"Please let me sleep in peace" Yeji begged.

"Mm no" Lia replied.

"Choi Jisu, I will shove an apple down ur throat" Yeji threatened.

"Ok ok calm down there" Lia nervously backed down.

"Aish, u guys are so noisy" Yuna complained, covering her ears with a pillow.

Yeji and Lia both shrugged and went to sleep.

Nearing midnight, Yeji heard a door opening and closing.

Curious, she sat up on her spot.

After awhile, she didn't see or hear anything. She planned on going back to sleep when a door opened again.

This time, it hit her that it could very well be a burglar.

The thought didn't last for long though, as she saw Chaeryeong and Yuna walk out of the bathroom.

The two were surprised to see Yeji awake.

"Unnie, why are u still awake?" Chaeryeong asked.

"I should be asking u the same" Yeji said.

"Well, uhmm...." Chaeryeong tried to think of an excuse. "We'll tell u in the morning unnie, let's all go to sleep"

"Sure" Yeji found it weird but shrugged it off.

————

"CHOI JISU WAKE UPPPP" Yeji yelled.

"How is she still asleep" Yuna questioned.

"Idk" Yeji replied. "Chaeryeong seemed knocked out too"

"I mean that's reasonable, but Lia unnie..." Yuna sighed.

"Why tf are y'all yelling at the crack of dawn" Ryujin stated, popping her head out of her room.

"Lia won't wake up" Yeji replied.

"Just take away her blanket and pillows, that might work, idk" Ryujin sleepily said, going back in her room.

"Wanna try that?" Yuna asked.

"Worth a shot" Yeji shrugged and snatched away Lia's blanket while Yuna took her pillow from under her head.

"... Let's just leave without her, unnie" Yuna suggested.

"I want to but she's my best friend and my neighbour so I probably shouldn't" Yeji reasoned.

"She awake yet?" Ryujin said with her morning voice, lazily walking out of her room.

"Obviously not" Yeji replied.

"Just drag her out at this point" Ryujin suggested.

"That's... Not a bad idea-" Yeji said, making Ryujin chuckle.

"Lia unnieeeeeee" Yuna whined while shaking Lia's body. "We're gonna be late because of uuuuuuu"

"Time to wake up, 'princess'!" Yeji called out.

"Princess?" Ryujin asked. At the same time, Lia awoke from her slumber. "Seems to have worked"

"What worked?" Lia asked.

"Waking u up" Ryujin replied.

"Ur voice is-" Lia said.

"I know" Ryujin cut her off, smiling sarcastically.

"Why are ur eyes so swollen?" Yeji suddenly asked, earning the attention of the other two.

"True, it's usually never this swollen" Yuna said.

"Huh?" Ryujin asked.

"We're gonna be late!" Yuna exclaimed after checking the time.

The three then quickly packed their things before leaving.

"Hey Ryujin" Yeji said in a soft voice. "U can talk to me if u want to"

"It's nothing, really" Ryujin insisted before sending her friends out.
