Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Promise

Georgie and Emily went to the beach as they had planned before, they walked towards the beach, the distance was not far, only 10 minute's walk, Georgie's mother also gave snacks to the two of them, they were only 10 years old children but there was no need Worry about it because it's very safe there.

"Lily," Georgie said.

"What?" Emily looked at him, they walked side by side.

"Why are you going to the beach alone? I mean, why don't your mom and dad come with you?" Georgie said.

"No, they are busy with their work, I'm mostly alone at home, so when I'm bored, I go to the beach, besides it's close, so I don't need anyone to accompany me to go there," Emily said.

"You are very brave, but does an Omega have this kind of courage?" Georgie said.

"My parents also said that, but I didn't show who I was, I just felt lonely because my parents weren't at home, I also felt scared the first time I went to the beach alone, but after doing it often I got used to it, it wasn't that scary do it all myself," Emily said.

Without realizing they had almost arrived at their destination, Georgie's steps stopped when he saw the beach in front of him.

"Welcome to Busan," Emily took Georgie's hand and pulled him to run to the beach, the first time Georgie felt that. It wasn't about the beach, but he saw Emily's tightly gripped hands, her face looked very happy.

"Sit here," Emily said, they sat on the sand and faced the beach, the waves were beautiful, and it wasn't too hot that day, Georgie also opened the snacks his mother had brought for them.

"Here have a drink, you must be thirsty," Georgie said, he handed Emily a bottle of water.

"Thank you," Emily took a sip of the water and Georgie just smiled looking at her from the side, he didn't know why he was smiling, but seeing Emily made him happy.

"Ahh so fresh, here drink it, you must be thirsty too" Emily handed the bottle to Georgie.

"You can come here alone, you remember the way to get here right?" Emily said.

"No, why do I have to come here alone? We can come here together" Georgie said.

"Yes, you're right, you can pick me up if you want to go to the beach," Emily turned to Georgie with her sweet smile.

They seemed to enjoy the atmosphere that day, Emily lay down on the sand while closing her eyes.

"Lily," Georgie said, but he didn't hear Emily answer, he turned to Emily and saw she had her eyes closed.

"Lily, are you sleeping?" Georgie said.

"No, why?" Emily opened her eyes slightly and saw Georgie staring at her.

"I thought you were sleeping, you didn't answer me," Georgie said.

"You just called me, you didn't ask anything, Gigi," Emily said and closed her eyes again.

"Does lying down feel so good?" Georgie said.

"Yeah, just try it," Emily said and Georgie lay down beside her.

"Lily, you know what? This is the first time for me to go to a place with my friend, I don't have any friends and you are my first friend, are you doing it because you feel sorry for me?" Georgie said.

"What? To be honest, I don't have any friends either, even though I study at school and meet lots of people but I can't get along with them, I'm just busy with myself," Emily said.

"Then why do you want to be friends with me?" Georgie said and Emily opened her eyes, she turned to her side to see Georgie who had looked at her first.

"Because you are the same as me, no friends, and lonely," Emily said.

"So are we going to be friends forever?" Georgie said.

"Of course, why not?" Emily said.

"You promise?" Georgie said and gave Emily his little finger.

"Yes I promise," Emily said.

The pinky promise made them closer, and since then, there are no secrets between Georgie and Emily. They often spend time together and tell a lot of things, getting to know each other deeper.
