Third Person

Both of them started to walk as a silence is welcoming them.

Chaeyoung who's casually walking while Mina beside her looking down to the younger's hand.

She want to hold it and embrace it with her hand but she doesn't know what would the younger could react if she did that.

"You told me you'll tell where are we going at the way?" Chaeyoung spoke up that made Mina to look at her.

"H-huh?" Mina utters that made Chaeyoung laugh slightly.

She stopped and face the latter as she speak again.

"Where are we going? Are we just gonna walk?" Chaeyoung asked

"Ah no, Uhm... I'll bring you on a place but, while walking I'll tell you some stuffs if you want?" Mina said

"Sure."

"And."

"And what?" Chaeyoung asked

Mina sighed and grabbed the younger's hand confidently. She intertwined her hand into it and raised it on face level.

"Can I?" Mina asked.

Chaeyoung is shocked and confused at the same time but eventually got the older's request.

"Ok.. If you're comfortable with it." Chaeyoung said

"How about you? Is it fine with you?" Mina asked

"Yeah... let's go." Chaeyoung said and started to walk.

Mina on the other hand is smiling with her lips. Then she started to speak.

"So I'll just tell a story to you." Mina stated as they walk together.

"Ok."

"First day of school when I met a girl who's not interesting in love."

"Is that even possible?" Chaeyoung asked

Mina laugh slightly and nodded.

"She's cool, nice, kind, cute, adorable-"

"Is she a dog." Chaeyoung cutted

"Nah, She's a cub." Mina said that made Chaeyoung to frowned

"You mean, a real one?"

"Of course not. So yeah, she's good. Everything in her is good..." Mina said with a smile.

They stopped on a gaming event and entered to the place.

"I brought her here one time. It was a great day to be honest. She's not into gaming but she still accompanied me." Mina said as they walked to a room.

"Wanna try?" Mina asked

"But I ca-"

"I'll teach you." Mina said and pulled Chaeyoung next to her.

"When I brought her here, we joined the battle and before that, I taught her some things in gaming." Mina said as she stood up behind the younger.

She leaned forward and lower herself.

"Then I teach her like this." Mina said in her calmly voice.

She hold the younger's hands and support it as she put it over the mouse and hold Chaeyoung's other hand for the keyboard.

"Bet you guys lose the game." Chaeyoung said

Mina laugh and nodded.

"How did you know?"

"If I playe while you're at behind me and holding my hand I won't be able to focus." Chaeyoung said that made Mina to laugh.

"Of course we didn't play like that." Mina said and sat beside the younger.

"Let's go to the next stop?" Mina asked

"Oh that fast?" Chaeyoung asked

"Why? You wanted to stay here for a while?"

"Nah, let's go." Chaeyoung said and stood up.

"May I again?" Mina asked as she laid her hand.

Chaeyoung didn't respond but hold the older's hand. They left the place and started to go to the next place.

"After the game, I brought her here. We just had a talk but it's all good. I had fun talking to her. I could stay with her just to listen to her stories. I thanked her for going with me at the event. Then I asked her if there's a possibility that she'll love someone. She's not sure that time but as time passed by, I could feel that she already does."

"That's romantic." Chaeyoung said to Mina.

"I know, let's go. This place would be nice at night but we couldn't stay here."

"Ok." Chaeyoung said and stood up as they both walk again.

Not so long they arrived at the treehouse.

"And the most special place for me." Mina said as she climbed up.

As they both climbed the tree. Mina started to talk again while Chaeyoung is sitting at the chair.

"She brought me here and it was in the middle of the night. I had a fight with my friends that time and I don't know who to talk with. I suddenly stopped in front of their house and as I saw her, I hugged her. She also hugged me surprisingly. Maybe to comfort me. She brought me here even tho it's a secret." Mina said

"Look, this is her works. She's a great artist right? Then after that I always stay here and gladly it's fine with her."

Mina stopped and looked at Chaeyoung who's listening.

"Want to eat? I brought some foods." Mina said

"Yeah, thanks you asked." Chaeyoung said and laugh slightly.

They both eat the food that Mina brought and continued the talk.

"Let's go?" Mina asked

"So where are we going now? It's already 6:00pm." Chaeyoung said

"I'll bring you home." Mina said and they both climbed down the treehouse.

While going home, Mina is still holding The younger's hand.

"Thank you for accompanying me roaming around." Mina said

"No, thank you. I had fun." Chaeyoung.

Not so long they arrived at Chaeyoung's house.

"Can I come in?" Mina asked

"Uh, well it's fine but aren't you supposed to be going? It's dangerous to go home since it's getting dark." Chaeyoung said

"I texted Sana to pick me. She'll arrive later." Mina said

"Ok, come in." Chaeyoung said and let Mina go inside the house.

"Wait, we still have a last place." Mina said that made Chaeyoung frowned.

Mina held the younger's hand dragging her to the garden of Chaeyoung's house.

"Here." Mina said

"Uh?"

Mina smiled and hold the both hands of the younger.

"She brought me here. My dad and her dad had a business meeting and it's so boring so we stayed here. I'm so comfortable talking to her and she didn't expect me to be like that." Mina said

"Mina-"

"Chaeyoung, You're the girl I'm talking about since the beginning. You're the only person that I brought in my gaming event. That I'm comfortable talking with even if it's a whole day." Mina said and hugged the younger.

"I don't know if the strings are still there. You're special for me. And I want to do everything just for the strings to stay with us. If the strings are tangled, I'll solve it. If the strings are about to tear, I'll fix it. If only memories can fix it, then let me bring all the memories we had before. I want you to remember what we used before.... just let me. Let me prove that I really love you and you can trust me again."
