as kwan sat at opal's doorstep and they chatted after school, he said "I don't like eun." "aw, are you afraid she'll steal me away from you?" opal said cutsily. "n-no!" he protested "aw well..." she turned his head and kissed his lips then looked into his eyes, "I'll always be yours." to which he blushed. "oh, but...." she stopped. "what?" he asked. "if I tell you, then you'll get mad." she replied. "tell me" he said putting on a cute face. "well....eun's coming over for a sleep over." she confessed as eun was walking up. "what's going on?" eun asked. kwan didn't say anything, he just avoided looking at eun, kissed opal on the cheek and left. "what's his problem?" eun asked. "he doesn't like you for some reason." opal responded getting up and letting eun inside.
later at night, after they had set up her matress in opal's room next to her bed, they both sat giggling and caught up on everything that had happened while the other had been gone. opal had explained how she and kwan had actually gotten together, and she seemed unphased by it. "hm. connected dreams? well that's new." eun replied. "It's weird I know." opal said. "hey, would you have guessed I'm a model?" eun asked, "really? that's great!" opal replied. "I could give you some make up tips." eun said. "but I don't usually wear make up." opal replied, "really? you look like you're wearing some now!" eun said shocked.."nope. all natural." opal said.
in the dream world, opal was dressed in a unique orange kimono and orange fishnet stockings with some sort of tatoos. she was grabbed from behind and held by a stranger that wasn't kwan. "w-who are you?" opal asked scared, "Jae." the stranger said. wait....opal thought....he's speaking english...but he's korean! "but how?" opal mummbled to herself. jae cuddled her still from behind, "oh, how I've missed you." he said softly into her ear. then opal realized....this...this is eun? "eun?" opal asked turning and looking at jae. he nodded. "bu-bu-bu-but...you're a girl!" opal blurted. "not when I was a baby." jae said, "when I was born there was an accident with some of the tools and so if I hadn't taken the role of a girl then I would have been horribly disfigured as a man." "why didn't you tell me?" opal asked, "I didn't know until a little after I was in korea." he replied.
he stole a quick kiss from her lips, to which she quickly pulled away, covering her mouth and blushing. "I've always loved you." he said, "but do you not accept me?". "I-I don't care what you are!" opal said, "but I'm with kwan!". "can't we just be together for one night?" jae asked attempting to approach opal. out of no where kwan had punched jae. "난 당신을 좋아하지 않았다 reson도가 알고 있었다. (I knew there was a reason I didn't like you.)" kwan said. jae got up. "opal. why? who would you really choose? me, someone you have history with? or this guy who've most of your relationship has been in dreams." jae asked. "but, I didn't even know you were a guy, and even if I had chosen you, in reality, you're still a girl. I'm sorry jae." opal said sadly. "I won't give up." jae said. "but jae...it's not possible." opal said, "I don't care." jae said. kwan huffed. and everyone woke up the next day.
there was an awkward silence between eun and opal...."why didn't you say anything?" opal asked. "until that, I was just a girl. so, I thought I should have kept it at friend level. but I still love you." eun replied.
