lia stood in front of ryujins house, clicking the doorbell three times with pauses in between. "why isn't she answering" lia mumbled in irritation as she looked through their messages hastily, double-checking, to confirm if she was at the right place. the older was sure of herself.

yep, lia was sure this was her house, it even had a 'shin residency' plate written in cursive on the bricked-wall. just as she was going to click the doorbell for the seventh time the door suddenly opened roughly with a tall handsome dude appearing, looking agitated and confused but that was wiped off his face as he saw the eye-candy right in front of him.
"hey, can i help you" hoseok asks the younger girl, laying his back on the wall, trying to look as cool and nonchalant as ever (clearly not working). "uhh, yeah im looking for shin ryujin."
"oh! felix's sister , sure come right i-" hoseok tried to welcome lia in but before he could even finish his sentence his face suddenly got plumaged against the grainy wall, by a specific someone. "hobi hyung what did i tell you about flirting with my friends, and why are you here aren't you supposed to be at the skate park with felix and the others," ryujin rolled her eyes as she let go of the male. hoseok was one of ryujins brothers friends, she had 5 of them, her being the youngest, and with that, the house was always crowded with males.(her friends state her competitive personality was induced by this) anyways ryujin thought that since she would be studying today, might as well chase them out of the house to the skate park so that the house can be a little quiet. "ouch, i just came back to get some water" hoseok caresses his cheek stinging at the spot, where he was scraped against.
lia couldn't hold it in anymore, she let out the cutest laughter ever seeing these two in front of her quarrelling over nothing. both of them shifted their attention on her "oh hey lia, sorry i had to take care of this little problem before i could let us start."
hoseok took off on his skateboard and the girls looked at one another again. lia was taken aback slightly. she's never seen ryujin in normal normal clothes before. the younger was wearing a supreme shirt (that was clearly too large for her frame) ,denim shorts that hugged her thighs just right, lia what are you thinking,and some flip flops, it definitely scram 'comfortable but chic' at the same time. the brunette coming back to her senses realised that she never replied the other. "oh , you have quite the grip there, i guess you are, a man on the inside." lia said mocking the younger.
"come right in pukeface." ryujin rolled her eyes and welcomed the older as she had no other choice than to choose her academic marks, itching to say something bad back to the older.
ryujins house was quite the mixture of homey and sumptuous, it was two-stories, had a pool and a mini basketball field in the back. inside the crib were loads of family photos and other weird shit that no one would use.
it seems like ryujins athletic prodigious were gene induced, as lia was peeking at the countless trophies that were kept in 3 cabinets and pictures of her father and brothers receiving them in between too. all achievements were documented here, swimming, soccer, basketball, tennis, karate, volleyball omg you name it.lia suddenly felt the passion and dedication that brewed in this house.
ryujin kept on strolling and lia was observing other things she hadn't known about the other it was quite nice. seeing a side that she never saw.they were now walking up the stairs towards ryujins room.
they entered the youngers room. 'ahhh' it smelled just like her. it looked just as lia had anticipated sporty,comfy,modern. the bed was situated in the middle of the room, with her trophy cabinet on the left cabinet and a manga stash in the right cabinet. right on top of the door was a basketball hoop and a pull-up bar. and bunny plushies on her bed, that ryujin hastily removed and shoved in a cupboard nearby in embarrassment.
silence filled the room and ryujin asked the older "you wanna eat anything?"
"nope, it's fine." lia already ate before coming there.
"ok"
"ok"
gosh this was so awkward for both of them.
"let's begin." lia says with a tad-bit of enthusiasm suggested in her tone.
time passed by and this was actually starting to work out(kinda).the girls were sitting next to each other hip by hip in that spacious room (a little too close in lia's opinion) "ok ryujin so tell me what mitosis is."
"when a cell divides." ryujin grins as she is sure that she got this one right. "ryujin look you have to be more specific, you are literally throwing away marks like this." lia tuts as she corrects the younger.
"look, mitosis is a part of the cell cycle when replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei. Cell division gives rise to genetically identical cells in which the number of chromosomes is maintained, see."
"but that's what i just said." raises her voice in annoyance.
the older can't stop herself from cooing at the blue-headed defence mechanism. it was too cute." look i get it, but that's just how it is in biology, you have to memorise long-ass paragraphs.and what's even sad is that half of the things you studied will be in that exam."
"that's dumb." ryujin sighs.
"ok next one, name the seven stages of mitosis." lia takes the flashcards she made for ryujin, glancing at the answers.
" uhm Interphase...Prophase...Prometaphase. ...Metaphase. ...Anaphase. ...Telophase...Cytokinesis," ryujin says with wide eyes as she is shocked to hear these words exiting her mouth, how she even got this in her brain will remain a mystery to herself.
lia was dumbfounded too, she was filled with so much happiness, feeling like this wasn't a waste of time. the adrenaline being too high , she decides on giving the younger a whole heartfelt hug clinging her hands all up to ryujiins neck. not thinking about the consequences. and what was even more peculiar was ryujins response, as she automatically slung her arms around lia's waist. bringing her body onto her lap.the older was too light,the younger pouted. lia was flustered of coarse letting out a tiny yelp exit her mouth.
they both stayed in that position for a while. none of them not knowing what to do next. eyes evading each other ,just feeling the warmth as the hug spread throughout their bodies,absorbing all that body temperature ,lia nose nuzzling against ryujins neck, feeling tipsy just by the scent of minty vanilla tanking her whole being ,while the other rubbed circles around her back,closing her eyes,taking deep breathes. they didn't move, they sat like that for 15 minutes.
it just felt
"o-okay let's just revise the rest of today's chapter and then i'll have to leave, it's getting quite late" lia first to speak, awkwardly stood up and went back to her original sitting arrangement.
they both felt cold again, wanting to desperately reconnect.
"y-yeah sure let's just continue." ryujin parrots what the older said.
the end of their session didn't help at all, because ryujin didn't listen for jack. she only kept on admiring the elders doll-like features and kept on replying "yeah" "i see" "thats cool" as the brunette was enthusiastically teaching the lesson. ryujin couldn't help being under a daze.lia tried to push through.
they both know that after this nothing would be the same.
lia left her house with a quick bye and took a taxi back home, she couldn't stop fumbling her fingers against the palms of her hands ,plus her cheeks stewed as they were brushed in a light shade of pink.
'weird'
