Chapter 1: | Prologue |

Sculpture.

Sculpture is like a silent poem, through which the artist can express their feelings, point of view, emotions and the beauty they see in the world or the sadness that it transmits to them.

Nicha was an artist, a sculptor, to be precise, she loved capturing the beauty of the people she met in blocks of marble and clay.

Her sketches narrated what her eyes saw and the beauty she managed to capture in the faces of the people she met.

Nicha loved to be inspired by the Renaissance movement for her works. In that period, the main objective of sculpture was to represent the human ideal, expressing its beauty, harmony and balance of the human body, in marble form. Renaissance sculpture had the ability to tell stories through the figures represented, making the rock material almost alive.

The soul of the young sculptor was pure and her eyes captured details that the world tended to miss.

The girl had drawn her knowledge and way of thinking from Michelangelo Buonarroti, a Florentine Renaissance sculptor. His sculpture attracted her, making her create a thousand scenarios in her mind around the subjects of her works, trying to imitate his realism as much as possible when she engraved on marble.

"You see a block, think about the image:

the image is inside, you just need to undress it."

- Michelangelo Buonarroti.

 

Minnie truly believed that each block of marble was designed for a specific work of art... And she liked to think that human beings were also created with a specific purpose in their lives and a specific soulmate for their heart, to which they are bound for eternity.

Nicha loved women, the beauty of their bodies, their facial features, the details of their skin.

The girl imagined treating her future partner like one of her marbles, taking care of it, preventing dust from settling on it, touching every point to dust away the whitish dust that she had created with the scalpel.

Women are delicate and Nicha knew exactly how to love everything delicate, from objects to people.

 

Chapter 2: | Chapter 1 |

Minnie was in the park, on the bank of the Han River, like every morning, sitting on the grass admiring passers-by, looking for inspiration for new sketches.

Her notebook was full of faces. Each face, a different story.

Elderly, children, women, men, animals, all with a different story to tell.

Nicha lay down on the damp grass, watching the sky and the birds crossing it, waiting for a new idea to cross her mind. Her receptors were active, ready to grasp every detail of the moment.

Children laughing, people walking, dogs walking, they barked, the sound of pages between fingers as they gently caressed the page and… onevoice, soft and delicate, so beautiful that it was music to the sculptress' ears.

 

“Haku, stay here.”

 

Minnie got up from the floor, looking around, seeing a young girl sitting at a bench, with a book in her hands and a small dog with dark gray fur at her side.

The girl was beautiful. A young woman with red hair, wavy like the sea, her face, perfect like Aphrodite, her nose seemed to have been sculpted by an artist and her eyes, brown like waterfalls of chocolate.

Nicha had never seen someone more beautiful in her entire life.

An idea crossed the girl's mind, causing her inspiration to come back. Minnie took her notebook, starting to draw the girl in great detail. She drew her hands and the veins on the backs while supported the book, her eyes focused on the lines of the pages, her eyelids slightly half-closed due to her downward gaze, her long and thin eyelashes, her pink lips and the shades of red towards the inside, her clothing, everything. Every detail of her was now imprinted on the paper of the new page of Nicha's notebook. Her every perspective was represented at the corners of the paper, filling every blank space on the page.

Minnie was so focused, she didn't notice that a dog was running towards her, jumping on her. 

Nicha shouted, throwing her notebook. The little dog was on her face, licking her cheeks.

The brunette looked up from her book, seeing her dog on the girl's face.

The young woman stood up, running towards the two.

 

“Haku, stop!” the redhead stopped, hearing the girl laugh.

 

The Thai stood up, taking the dog in her arms, stroking its fur.

 

“ You are so beautiful,” the sculptress said, giving him a kiss on the head.

 

"Are you OK?" the redhead asked, looking at the sculptress.

 

Nicha looked the girl in the eyes, getting lost in those waterfalls of chocolate.

 

"I’m fine! Thank you," Minnie said, smiling, as she continued to pet the puppy. "It's yours?"

 

"Yes"

 

“May I know his name?”

 

"Haku"

 

"It's beautiful." Nicha said, scratching the area behind his ear. “Can I also know your name?”

 

“Cho Miyeon… You?” the girl asked, picking up the notebook from the floor, looking at the page on top.

 

“Nicha Yontararak, but you can call me Minnie.”

 

“B-But this… Is it me?” Miyeon asked, looking at the draft in the notebook.

 

“Y-Yes…” Nicha said,scratching slightly her neck, as if she had been caught doing something. “Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. but… you are really really beautiful and I couldn't help but capture the moment.”

 

"It's beautiful." said the girl, seeing every characteristic of her, perfectly printed on the paper. "You are an artist?"

 

Minnie nodded shyly, while her gaze was on the floor.

 

“I'm a sculptor.” she said, taking back the notebook that the brunette was handing her.

 

“You're talented with a pencil.” the redhead stated, as she traced the lines of her features reproduced in the portrait with her fingertip.

 

“Miyeon… can I ask you a favor?” the Thai asked, blushing.

 

“Yes, although I can't guarantee I can help you.”

 

“W-Would you like to be the model for my next work?” Nicha asked, looking at the floor. “You have a unique beauty, equal to the goddess Aphrodite. I would be very happy if you could accept.”

 

Miyeon was speechless. Minnie's request was unusual and sudden.

 

“M-Me?” the redhead asked, incredulous. “I don't think I'm the right person.”

 

“Yes, you are! You’re really beautiful and you’re perfect.” Nicha said, taking her hand.

 

“I don't know, I'd like to think about it…” the redhead said, shyly, while Nicha nodded. “I don't know you, so it's a bit strange.”

“Forgive me, I would never have asked anyone for something like that.” the Thai admitted timidly. “I'm usually very introverted, but I really, really need you. I’ve… Never , in my entire career, seen someone so beautiful. I didn't mean to be rude or seem weird to you, but I really think I fell in love with your beauty."

 

Minnie looked at the girl with sincere eyes.

 

“I want to think about it." Miyeon said, looking at Nicha. “You were very kind, really. You also seem very nice. If it's not a problem, give me your phone number and I'll text you when I’m ready.”

 

“R-Really?!” Minnie exclaimed, seeing the girl nod, before lunging towards her, hugging her. “Thank you, I know you didn't agree and I don't know if you ever will, but thank you for considering it.”

 

“I-I'll think about it.” the girl said, embarrassed.

 

Minnie stepped back, picking up her notebook, placing it in her bag along with her pencil.

 

“It was nice meeting you, Miyeon.” The girl said, standing up, holding out her hand to the redhead, helping her up. “Thank you Haku. Thanks to you I met your beautiful mistress.”

 

The girl walked away, waving her hand, waving at Miyeon. Leaving a sweet aftertaste in the heart of the red.

Days passed, but Nicha still received no news from Miyeon.

Almost every day, while working in her studio, she admired the portrait of the mysterious red-haired Aphrodite. As beautiful as a blooming Dahlia

Minnie hoped that the girl would give her consent. She wanted so much to reproduce the girl's perfect and impeccable features on clay and white marble.

Two weeks had passed and Minnie's birthday had arrived, but still no news about the girl... until then.

Nicha had started to lose hope, until, on the evening of her birthday, before midnight marked the end, a notification from an unknown number appeared on her screen.

She picked up the device, looking at the notifications.

 

🗨️ Unknown Number

“Hi Minnie, it’s Miyeon.”

🗨️ Unknown Number

“Is your offer still valid?”

 

Minnie's face lit up when she saw the girl's name. Without wasting even a second, Nicha replied.

 

🗨️ Min

“Hey”

🗨️ Min

“Of course it is”

🗨️ Unknown Number

"I accept"

🗨️ Unknown Number

“Tell me when and where to meet”

 

Minnie screamed with happiness, pumping her fist up and down.

 

"Yes Yes Yes."

 

The Thai responded immediately, the smile still on her lips.

 

🗨️ Min

"THANK YOU"

🗨️ Min

“Can you come tomorrow?”

 

And so they did. The two would meet in Nicha's studio to begin the work.

Minnie couldn't stand the idea of seeing that beautiful girl who had now captured her heart again. Minnie had never felt anything so strongly for someone, but just by seeing Miyeon, her heart remained tied to her.

Like when you see a Dahlia for the first time and you can't help but stare at it, never wanting to take your eyes off it again.

Every artist has their own muse and for Minnie her muse was Miyeon. 

Her heart had chosen her. 

Miyeon was her Dahlia.

Dante also had his Beatrice, for whom he wrote the best compositions or Leonardo Da Vinci his Lisa Gherardini, for whom he painted the famous Mona Lisa painting.

All artists had a muse and now Minnie had hers too.

Every artist experiences the peak of their expression when they fall in love, giving birth to the best works, even if most of them told of a suffering and melancholic love.

Nicha was convinced that her love for her Dahlia would be different. She was sure that she would spend all the time in the world on her Dahlia.

 

It is the time she would have lost for her Dahlia that would have made her so important.

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 4: | Chapter 3 |

Miyeon arrived at the address Minnie had sent her. It was a small house, not too big, but big enough to understand that Nicha was rich.

The redhead rang the bell, waiting for a few minutes. The gate opened in front of her, better showing the external structure of the house.

The house also had a swimming pool and a garage, but strangely a car and a motorbike were parked in the driveway.

The front door was open and Nicha was there, with a sweet smile on her lips.

Miyeon felt embarrassed, but for some reason, Minnie made her feel safe. She knew she could trust her.

The redhead hurried to the entrance of the house, greeting the sculptress.

 

“Thank you so much for accepting, Miyeon.” the Thai said, closing the door behind her, leading the girl into the house.

 

The two reached the kitchen and Minnie took a tray with a jug of water and two glasses.

 

"Are you hungry?" Nicha asked, looking at Miyeon.

 

The girl didn't know what to say, so she simply shrugged.

 

“Mmh…” Minnie murmured, thinking of something. “Do you like pancakes? Or a slice of chocolate cake? Or… some fruit?”

 

The redhead blushed, looking at Nicha.

 

“I'm not very hungry at the moment.” Miyeon said.

 

“Okay, maybe later.” Minnie said, before picking up the tray. "Come on." she continued, showing the girl the way. “Did you have trouble finding the place?”

 

“No, even though I wasn't very sure that this was the place, I expected it a little less…”

 

"Luxurious?" Minnie asked, stopping in front of a door, turning to the redhead.

 

“I don't want to sound rude, but yes.”

 

"Don't worry." Nicha said, smiling. “Since I was little I have been very famous because of my parents. My family was the richest in Thailand and-”

“Are you Thai??” the girl asked in surprise. “Sorry, I interrupted you, go on.”

 

"Don’t apologize." Nicha reassured her, smiling. “Yes, I'm Thai. However, when I became a sculptor, people already knew me, so thanks to fame and my skills I was immediately successful in the field. When I came here to Korea I was quite famous in the arts and engineering fields. Soon I’ll have an exhibition and I was missing one last work, and the main and protagonist of the work will be you."

Nicha explained, before opening the door behind her, revealing her garage. Now Miyeon explained why the vehicles were parked outside.

The room had the floor covered with pages of old newspapers, there were some barrels of paint and metal pieces, as well as several sheets of sketches with photos of the completed works on the sides. There was a scaffold used as a storage area for tools as well as several prototype busts and body pieces in different materials.

A gas mask hung on the wall and there was marble and dried clay debris in the corners of the floor. In the center of the room there was a cube, with signs of green tape marking very specific points. On the opposite side, a stool and a smaller cube, on which there was a large piece of clay covered in plastic.

 

“Be careful, I don't want you to get hurt.” Minnie said, placing the tray on the desk where more sketches were scattered.

 

Miyeon noticed the sketch of her portrait hanging next to the desk, detached from the others.

 

“Can I know why my portrait is separated from the others?” Miyeon asked, leaning in to look.

 

Minnie approached her, looking at the drawing.

 

“Because I need it not to be buried by others. That drawing is special.” Minnie said, looking at Miyeon. “I don't want to sound like a pervert or a maniac, but I fell in love with that drawing and I can't help but admire it when I sculpt or create something new in here. Your features are truly unique. I know I've said it many times now, but I can't help but tell you. You are really very beautiful."

 

Miyeon blushed, looking down.

 

“T-Thank you.”

 

Minnie walked over to the record player, taking one of her vinyl records from the bookshelf, placing it on the platter, before placing the needle on it. Slowly, the notes of the piano began to be heard in the garage, spreading the melody of Moonlight Sonata.

Miyeon looked at Nicha as she set up all the things.

 

“Miyeon, I have to ask you to wear a dress. Don't worry, you can change in my room.” the Thai said, leading Miyeon to her room.

 

A black tunic hung on the wardrobe, with a slit at the thigh.

Minnie took the dress, handing it to her.

 

“This is the dress, I hope you don't mind having to wear it.”

 

“N-No,” the redhead said, looking around the room.

 

The room was full of posters and guitars, but also a keyboard. There was another record player and more vinyl and the smell was so sweet. Miyeon didn't know Nicha, but she felt that this room was like her and her soul.

 

“I'll go to the garage, I'll wait for you there, take it easy. Okay?” Minnie said, closing the door of her room, returning to her studio, waiting for the girl.

 

After a while, the garage door opened, revealing the beautiful red-haired girl.

Miyeon truly looked like Aphrodite and Minnie was now petrified, as if the power of Medusa was in the girl's eyes.

Nicha approached, looking at the girl.

 

“Miyeon… you are beautiful… I… I don't know what to say, really.”

 

“T-Thank you.”

 

Miyeon blushed. Seeing someone like Minnie give her so much attention and compliments almost made her heart skip a beat. Nicha's eyes were on her and admiring her as if she were the most beautiful creature in the world. Miyeon loved this feeling and this 'Love' that Minnie felt for her beauty.

 

“D-Don't you think we'd better start?” Miyeon asked, her cheeks hot and red with embarrassment.

 

“Y-Yes, sorry.” Minnie brought Miyeon next to the cube, making her sit on it. “Will you let me touch you?”

 

Miyeon looked at Minnie, as if she had said something absurd. It was unusual to hear someone asking in a gentle voice for permission to touch your body. Some men, even simple friends, never asked for permission, even just for a photo with her. It bothered Miyeon that someone would touch her or wrap their arms around her without asking her opinion, but Nicha was different.

The sculptor seemed to be so delicate, like the stroke of her pencil on the paper.

Miyeon nodded, seeing the girl's hand reach her leg. The Thai's hand was so cold and slightly calloused, but still soft and delicate. Minnie lifted Miyeon's leg, placing her foot on the base, arranging the skirt of the dress, covering her underwear, pretending not to have seen anything, before taking her arm, placing it on her knee, arranging her hand, taking it in hers.

Nicha stepped back, looking critically at the girl's position.

 

“Can I touch your hair?” Minnie asked, getting a nod from the redhead, before starting to fix her hair.

 

“Are you always this polite?”

 

“I try to be, I don't like invading girls' personal space. I think women are delicate and sensitive and don't deserve to be touched unless they give you consent." Minnie said, surprising the brunette.

 

Miyeon felt the gentleness of Minnie's fingers in her hair and the sincerity of her words.

 

“I wish there were more people like you.”

 

“Today the old values have been forgotten, but there is still someone who remembers them and tries to keep them alive. You will find the right person for you.” Nicha said, going to sit on the stool, starting to pick up her tools. “Miyeon, remember that those green marks you see on the cube are the points where you will have to position yourself in the next few days, so you won't have trouble finding your position.”

 

“Oh, Okay. Thank you." Miyeon saw Nicha take some metal pieces, starting to create something like a skeleton. “Can I ask what you're going to do?”

 

“Of course, you can ask anything.” Minnie said, looking up, giving the redhead a smile. I‘m creating the skeleton of the statue with these metal pieces, then I will cover them with clay and create a miniature of what will be the work you will see reproduced on marble. All the ones you see there are miniatures of my old works.” she concluded, pointing to the shelves, where her prototypes were displayed. “This process will take some time, but if you want to give up, you can do it whenever you want. You are free and I cannot hold you.”

 

The two remained silent. Miyeon stared at Nicha and her veiny hands as they worked the clay. Minnie seemed to be so gentle and calm as she worked. Miyeon was curious to know if the girl was also so kind to those she loved, if their body was manipulated with kindness as she did with clay, if she showed that kind look full of wonder to all the people she loved. Miyeon aspired to find someone like that in her life.

The redhead was lost in thought, not noticing that Nicha had gotten up, heading towards her.

The two girls' faces were inches apart, Minnie brought a hand to Miyeon's face, gently moving a strand of hair from her face.

The redhead felt a gentle touch on her face, seeing the sculptor a few centimeters away from her, recoiling in fear. Miyeon lost her balance, almost falling from the cube, when Nicha's arms wrapped around her in a hug, preventing her from falling.

Their hearts were beating wildly, partly from fear, partly from their position.

Minnie helped her stabilize herself, before moving away slightly.

 

“Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.” Minnie said, looking down. “I-I tried to call you, but you seemed lost in thought. I didn’t want to bother you. S-Sorry.”

 

“No, don't apologize, it's my fault. I was distracted and didn't hear." Miyeon said, blushing.

 

"Can I?" Minnie asked, coming closer.

 

The redhead nodded, letting Nicha brush her hair out of her face.

 

“Miyeon, will you let me touch your face? I need it to memorize your characteristics.” Minnie said, shyly. “B-But if you don't want to, I can do without it. I don't want to seem rude."

 

“N-No, you can.”

 

"Thank you."

 

Miyeon saw Nicha's hand approaching her face, caressing it gently, while the Thai smiled at her. Minnie closed her eyes, tracing every inch of the girl's face. Miyeon couldn't help but look at the girl's face and feel her delicate touch on her face like caresses.

Minnie looked like she was in trans. Like the priestesses of ancient Greece when they consulted the oracle of the gods.

Miyeon was a goddess and Minnie was drugged by her beauty. A drug called Dahlia, the scent of which alone made her fall deeper and deeper.

 

“Perfect…” Minnie murmured, touching the redhead's eyelids, reaching her nose.

 

Minnie touched the girl's cheeks with her thumbs, caressing them, before reaching her lips.

Miyeon still had her eyes closed when she felt Nicha's thumb touch her lips and press lightly on them, before caressing them. Miyeon felt her heart beating wildly.

The feeling of Minnie's thumb on her lips was like a kiss, soft and delicate.

The redhead opened her eyes, seeing the Thai in front of her, her eyes still closed and her hands still on her face.

Minnie opened her eyes, leaving them half closed. Her gaze fixed on the redhead's lips, as if she were deciding whether to kiss them or not.

 

“You are perfect, Miyeon… truly perfect.” Nicha whispered, before looking up, meeting Miyeon's eyes.

 

"Thank you."

 

Nicha backed away. Both had a weight in their hearts and the more the sculptor moved away, the more painful it became. They both wanted to stay in touch, as their skin touched.

The sculptor resumed her work, remaining silent. Only music filled the void.

Miyeon's mind was foggy and confused. Minnie felt like a drug that was slowly clouding her mind.

From the first eye contact, Miyeon had seen something different in Minnie. Her softness, her kindness and her attention to detail.

Minnie looked at her with love and amazement, as if she were the most fragile of marbles, unlike the others and their lustful and dirty looks.

 

“Miyeon” 

 

Her voice… calm and melodious, as she said her name it seemed so sweet.

 

“Miyeon.”

 

The redhead looked up and Minnie was standing there, covering the miniature she had made with plastic.

 

“We're done, you can take off the dress.” said the Thai, washing her hands in the sink there.

 

Miyeon looked at Nicha, before getting up and going to the girl's room.

The redhead was in Minnie's room, trying to calm down. What had happened was a mistake, she was just confused and tired. She needed sleep.

The girl changed her clothes, repositioning the dress on the wardrobe, before returning to the sculptress.

 

“Miyeon, did you come by transport?” theThai asked, arranging the tools.

 

"Yes."

 

“I can give you a ride, if you let me.” the girl offered, making Miyeon's heart flutter.

 

“I wouldn't want to bother you. You are already at home, you have no reason to go out.” the redhead reasoned, blushing.

 

“It's not a nuisance, I like your presence.” Minnie said, smiling, making the girl's pulse increase. “This area is dangerous at night, I wouldn't want anything to happen to you.”

 

“O-Oh, thanks.” the redhead said, before turning her gaze to the miniature. "Can I see it?"

 

“Yes,” Nicha said, lifting the plastic wrapper. “It's not very detailed now, but I hope to be able to finalize it tonight.”

 

"Tonight?" Miyeon asked.

 

"Yes. There are some nights when I can’t sleep due to my insomnia and to pass the time I come here and create.” Nicha explained.

 

Miyeon approached the statue, looking at it. The miniature wasn't detailed, but the shape was perfect and Miyeon couldn't wait to see it created on marble with all its details.

 

"I didn’t know it…"

 

“You couldn't have known.” the Thai smiled kindly, before placing the plastic on the statue. “Come on, I'll take you home.”

 

The two walked out of the house in the car. Minnie opened the passenger door, letting Miyeon in, before going to the other side.

The girl gave the coordinates to the sculptress, who started the engine. Nicha's drive was calm and relaxed, like her.

 

“Miyeon, can I ask you a question?” Nicha asked, her gaze fixed on the road.

 

"Yeah."

 

"What do you do in your life? Do you work?"

 

“I'm currently studying law, but I have a part-time job in a pastry shop.” the girl explained.

 

“Wow, so if I ever need a lawyer I won't hesitate to call you.” Minnie said, winking at her, before looking back at the road.

“I hope I never have to be of use to you in that sense. I would never want you to have to resort to the law. Whatever the motivation is.” Miyeon said sincerely.

 

“Thank you, Miyeon.” Minnie said, smiling, getting a smile from the redhead. “Do you have plans tomorrow?”

 

“I don't think so, I should just study.”

 

“Would you like to come back? I could come and get you from your house, I don't want you to take public transport to get to my house, it's a very dangerous area."

 

“N-No, there's no need-”

 

“Miyeon, you are not bothering me. It's nice to be able to spend time with you.”

 

“T-Thank you.”

 

The two reached their destination.

 

"Thanks for accepting my request. I hope to be able to finish the statue by the set date for the exhibition.”

 

“Are you going to have an exhibition?” Miyeon asked, curious.

 

“Yes, that's how I work. In addition to being called by engineers and architects for the statues of some buildings.” the Thai explained. "Would you like to come? Your statue will be displayed there.”

 

“Wow, so everyone will see my face?” Miyeon asked, embarrassed.

 

"Yes." Minnie looked at the girl, seeing her puzzled. "You don’t want to? I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner."

“N-No, it's okay. It doesn’t matter."

 

“Miyeon, it matters to me.” she said in a firm tone. “If you feel uncomfortable I can change everything. Even though I had thought of something in particular for that statue. Yours will be the main statue of the exhibition. You are so beautiful that I thought of a special role for your statue. But that's okay if you don't want to."

 

"I want to!" Miyeon said, making Nicha smile. “Thank you at least for not asking me to do a nude. Then I would never have accepted and I would never even have wanted it to be exposed.”

“I would never have asked you to do a nude.” Minnie said, surprising the girl. “Such beauty must be protected, not exposed. Although it would not have been your body in flesh and bones, but the sculpture is almost like a real body. It would have been like telling you to show up naked at the exhibition. I don't like having to make girls uncomfortable unless they tell me they want to be shown naked."

 

"You are very kind." Miyeon said, smiling. “A man wouldn't think twice about asking a girl to pose naked. You are… different. You seem to have a pure and kind soul.”

 

Minnie had red cheeks

 

"Thank you."

 

Miyeon smiled, before opening the door.

 

“I better go now.” the redhead said, getting out of the car. "See you tomorrow."

 

"See you tomorrow."

Chapter 5: | Chapter 4 |

The days passed and the two girls began to see each other more often.

Miyeon loved spending time with Nicha, loved listening to her stories about ancient sculptors and their muses, loved listening to the stories behind every work of art from Nicha herself.

Two and a half months had now passed since the two had met. The two were now friends, but for the artist, Miyeon was a muse, the person through whom her heart beat, she felt as if her eyes were created only to look at her and her heart to beat only for her.

Miyeon continued to visit the park where it all began, taking Haku with her.

Nicha kept returning to the park to look for inspiration or take photos of the landscapes, even spending time with Miyeon while the girl read.

Haku and Minnie had become friends. The puppy had understood everything right away, causing the fate of the two girls to intertwine.

While Nicha sculpted, Miyeon filled her with questions and Thai didn't miss a single one.

The sculpture increasingly took on the appearance of the redhead. Its face was exactly like Miyeon's.

Nicha had made some changes to the statue's posture. The girl was now in a standing position, with a pierced heart in her hands, while her expression remained impassive.

The redhead loved asking Minnie for details of the work, asking her what inspired it. For some reason still unknown to her, Miyeon, of all Nicha's works, loved the story behind her current creation and how Minnie described its beauty, as if it were poetry inspired by the gods.

The redhead had started to appreciate the time she spent with Minnie, she loved when the girl welcomed her in a soft and warm hug.

The more time passed, the more Miyeon felt in the girl's presence. A feeling of warmth and affection enveloped her

 

“Miyeon”

 

She loved when her voice, warm and melodious, said her name.

 

“Miyeon” 

 

She loved how her calloused but still incredibly soft hands touched her face for soft caresses or when Nicha gently shaped it to memorize the details.

 

“Yeon?” Minnie asked, finally getting the girl's attention. "Everything is fine?"

 

“Y-Yes,” Miyeon said, perplexed. causing Minnie to worry.

 

“How about we take a break?” the sculptress proposed, moving closer to Miyeon, gently grabbing her hips, helping her down.

 

The two's faces were a few centimeters apart and their hearts were beating wildly.

The two remained still, while their gazes were fixed on each other. Minnie's hands still on the redhead's hips, as she caressed them gently.

 

“Yeon, do you want to dance with me?” Nicha asked, her eyes locked on Miyeon's.

 

The redhead nodded, making a smile grow on Minnie's lips.

The sculptress took her muse by the hand, approaching the record player, turning up the volume.

"Can I?" Nicha asked kindly, offering her hand to Miyeon, who immediately accepted.

 

Minnie wrapped her arms around the redhead, smiling, giving her a soft kiss on the cheek. Miyeon felt her pulse increase. Her eyes couldn't tear away from the sculptress and her deep black eyes, in which Miyeon lost herself.

 

“Yeon.” Minnie whispered, looking into her eyes. “You don't have to tell me what's bothering you, but know that if you need someone to talk to, I'm here. I will gladly listen to you, for as long as necessary.”

 

Miyeon didn't say anything, the girl's words were always well chosen and her availability had no boundaries. When Minnie paid her this little attention, Miyeon felt loved, like no one had ever done in her life. The redhead moved closer, wrapping her arms around Nicha's shoulders, burying her face in the crook of the girl's neck as the two continued to sway.

Nicha's scent invaded her nostrils, making her feel safe, wrapped in those strong arms.

The redhead stepped back, meeting Minnie's loving gaze. Le Thai reached out, caressing her face, moving some strands of her hair.

Miyeon saw the sculptress’ eyes scan her face, focusing her gaze on her lips.

Their breaths clashed no matter how close their faces were, before uniting in a single breath that danced freely in the air.

Slowly Minnie approached, leaving a soft kiss on the corner of the girl's mouth, slowly backing away, admiring the girl's beauty.

 

"You are really beautiful." the Thai whispered, caressing the cheekbone of the marble-skinned girl.

 

Miyeon was filled with a feeling of love and affection. Her heart took the reins of the situation, pushing the redhead to connect her lips with those of the sculptor.

Minnie closed her eyes, pulling Miyeon closer to her as she continued caressing her cheekbone softly.

Their lips molded passionately, while the background music disappeared definitively. The two were now still, with only their lips moving.

The two separated to catch their breath. Minnie made their foreheads touch, giving one last kiss under the girl's eye.

Miyeon realized what had just happened, looking up, seeing the sweet, genuine smile dancing on Nicha's plump lips, but this was a mistake. All this shouldn't have happened.

 

That kiss shouldn't have existed.

 

Miyeon backed away sharply, startling Minnie, whose smile immediately faded. The girl's eyebrows furrowed as Nicha approached her, worried.

The closer Minnie got, the more Miyeon backed away.

 

“D-Don't come closer, Min…” Miyeon said, lowering her gaze to the floor, in an attempt to reorganize her thoughts, while Nicha was there, motionless and helpless and with her also her heart. “T-This was a mistake! That kiss shouldn't have happened. Y-You shouldn't have kissed me… N-None of this should have happened. It was a mistake to accept your offer!”

 

Miyeon looked up, seeing Minnie's expression, whiter than the marble behind her, while tears ran down her face.

It seemed as if the statue was Nicha and not the sculpture behind her.

Miyeon took two steps towards Minnie, before freezing. Once again, her heart was about to race to the sculptress, but she froze. 

It was wrong. 

This was all wrong.

 

“I-I… I have to leave.” the redhead said, but when she was about to leave the studio, a hand grabbed her wrist.

 

“P-Please…” Minnie whispered, guiding the girl towards her, bringing her hands to her face. “What's wrong with loving someone? What was wrong with that kiss? Everything was so perfect, Yeon. Wha-”

 

“STOP IT MINNIE!” Miyeon shouted, surprising them both. “You said yourself that I could give up at any time… That time is now, so let me go… I never want to see you again!”

 

Minnie immediately let go, as if Miyeon was hot and impossible to touch.

Miyeon felt her heart shatter at the loss of contact with Minnie, but she had to do it. She had to go.

Nicha saw Miyeon go away, leaving her alone to pick up the pieces of her now shattered heart.

Her muse had left her, her Dahlia.

Chapter 6: | Chapter 5 |

It had been several hours since Miyeon left. Nicha was on the floor, with her back against the wall, while her eyes were fixed on the statue. The sculpture's impassive gaze seemed to judge Minnie as it slowly squeezed her heart until it bled. Nicha really felt it. Her heart was bleeding. She didn't even know if she still had a heart or if Miyeon had taken it away with her.

The music continued to play in the background and Minnie began to sing, hearing the words one by one, while tears only tracked her face.

The Thai lay on the floor as she continued to sing, wistfully, while looking at the statue, as if dedicating every single word to Miyeon.

 

“I'm throwing out the page I found… The memory 'bout you and I” Minnie sang,While the sound of her sobs filled the room. “I-I really need proof to go on… 'Cause my life goes dark…” Minnie  sighed, trembling, as she mouthed every word . “When I know that I can never be your love.”

 

The lyrics mirrored exactly the fracture Nicha had in her sensitive heart. Being an artist was a blessing, but also a curse. Being able to feel too much was torture and an artist hardly forgets the pain suffered.

 

“Wish we never talked… Wish we never saw… But now I know you're just too far…” Minnie began to sob louder and louder, as if there wasn’t enough oxygen in her lungs. “To catch you with my arms.” Nicha couldn't breathe, but art was the only language she knew how to express herself in and now, even out of breath, even at the cost of dying, she would sing that song until the end... because it exactly described her state of mind and soul. “Wish I never met you… Wish I never touched your hand… On the day I really thought you were… The only one that I could ever really love. I'm not a person that believes about the things that people talk… But the things you said, they made my world, I never doubted you were wrong… Just tell me that I'm wrong… Or say anything at all…” Nicha sighed, whispering the last sentence, feeling it like a blade pierce what remained of her heart. “Was the love we had ever true?”

 

Minnie remained on that cold floor for days. There was no way she could get up. Her eyes were glued to the sculpture’s face as she stared at it, impassive.

Lisa, her best friend, found her after four days passed out on the floor with a high fever, doing nothing but crying and desperately saying Miyeon's name.

Nicha was ill for several days, the fever didn’t go away, but she didn’t want to do anything to cure herself, remaining on an empty stomach without moving from that room.

Minnie had considered destroying that statue several times. It didn't make any sense now. It was unfinished, like the love she felt for her Dahlia.

 

“W-Why… Why are you looking at me like that, Miyeon?” Nicha asked, before losing consciousness again, collapsing on the floor.

 

Lisa had tried everything to help her friend, but it seemed nothing distracted her. Only one person could help her... Miyeon, but it was impossible to make her come and then Lisa had never seen her, except once or twice in the last two and a half months.

Lisa was there with her, trying to stay close to her as much as possible. The girl always tried to leave Nicha while she slept, so she could go to work or to her girlfriend

Like in that moment.

Nicha was on the floor and had just woken up. She was alone. 

Miyeon wouldn't come back to her.

Miyeon didn't love her. She had misunderstood everything.

The more she left space for those thoughts, the more she felt like she was dying.

She wanted Miyeon to come back to her.

She still couldn't figure out where she went wrong.

Minnie was on the floor, crying. Crying was the only thing she had left as she looked at that statue with love, looking for a way to hate it, but how could she hate someone so beautiful? How could she hate such happy moments? How could she hate her?

The Thai began hitting the floor, banging her fists. Blood began to trace her knuckles, now injured by the thousand marble debris that were on the floor.

Minnie felt nothing, felt no pain, continuing to hit the floor trying to feel something. Her cry they scraped her throat and tears made her eyes burn, but nothing compared to the emptiness she felt in her chest.

The sculptress looked up, looking at the statue waiting for it to give her some answers.

Nicha pushed herself up off the floor, her head spinning as she tried to lean on the statue for balance before grabbing the sides of the ladder, reaching for the woman's face.

The Thai took it gently in her bloody hands, desperately stroking her cheeks. Nicha looked at her with so much love, as if she were Miyeon in the flesh.

 

“M-Miyeon… come back to me… please.” she whispered as if she were hallucinating.

 

The statue's face slowly turned red.

The white marble had been stained with her blood as the sculptress tried to give them those last drops of love that she had left.

 

“I love you… Miyeon.” Nicha whispered, giving a kiss to the statue's cold lips, before losing consciousness, falling from the ladder.

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 7: | Chapter 6 |

It had now been three weeks since Miyeon had last been at Nicha's house.

It seemed like an eternity had passed, but being there again, in front of the entrance gate was strange.

Miyeon was trying to push away her feelings and being there she knew it would be a trap.

She still loved Nicha, still wanted her caresses and hugs. She wanted one more kiss.

But she couldn't. 

She could not. 

Ever since she was a young girl she had been told it was wrong.

Loving someone of the same sex was against nature. She couldn't fall in love with a girl.

The body of a man and a woman were like pieces of a puzzle, destined to be together. This was what they had always told her.

But what was wrong? What was wrong with loving? What is the difference between loving a man or a woman? The important thing was to love.

Miyeon felt that loving Nicha was the right choice she could have made, but then… Why was it so difficult to accept herself for who she really was?

 

Miyeon took a deep breath, ringing the doorbell of the sculptress’ house.

For days Miyeon had kept the dress that Minnie had lent her to model and only now had she gathered a little courage to return it to her.

The redhead waited a few minutes, but no one answered. Miyeon pushed the door open, finding it open, heading towards the front door.

The house’s lights were turned off and the front door was closed.

Miyeon sighed, ready to leave. She didn't know whether to be happy or sad that she hadn't found anyone, but her heart ached. She wanted to see Minnie at least one last time.

The redhead walked towards the exit, looking around, when she saw the door leading to the garage open, with a brick preventing it from closing.

Miyeon thought about leaving the envelope in Nicha's studio and leaving, saving both of them the pain of seeing each other again.

The redhead walked through the door, but the room was almost completely dark, only the study lamp on Minnie's workbench was on.

Miyeon turned on the flashlight on her phone, pointing it up, seeing the bloody statue.

The redhead backed away in terror, shining the flashlight into the room, seeing Nicha lying on the floor, unconscious. The sculptress’ hands were bloody and her forehead had a cut on it, perhaps caused by the fall.

Miyeon fumbled for a switch, lighting up the room, before running to the girl.

Minnie's body was hot, but her hands were frozen with fresh blood leaking from the wounds.

Miyeon was scared, she feared the worst. The redhead took her into her arms, lifting her head, making her rest her head on her legs.

 

“M-Min… Min, please… s-say something.” Miyeon whispered, caressing the girl's face, but nothing.

 

The redhead took a deep breath, standing up, carrying Nicha to her room.

Miyeon laid Minnie on the bed, undressing her. Since the day the two said goodbye, Minnie had not moved from that studio. She left it only to go to the bathroom or to freshen her face, in the hope of staying awake as long as possible, in the hope that her muse would return to visit her.

Despite the bloodstains, sweat and marble dust on her body, Minnie was perfumed, as only she could be.

Her body was hot, but she was shaking like a leaf. Miyeon couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

Nicha had started crying in her sleep again, while shaking due to the fever.

Miyeon took care of her, dressing her wounds, taking a wet cloth, trying to refresh her body to reduce her fever.

 

“M-Mi—Yeon…” Minnie murmured, sobbing. “M-Miyeon… come back to me”

 

Miyeon started sobbing. She couldn't bear to see Nicha in that condition.

The redhead leaned down, placing a kiss on the girl's forehead. Then another, on her cheek, remaining still.

 

"I’m here." she whispered into the girl's cheek as she caressed her head.

 

Nicha slowly opened her eyes, smiling faintly.

 

“M-My beautiful Aphrodite… my Dahlia .” she whispered, tears still falling down her face. “Y-You came back to me… Or maybe it's a hallucination?”

 

“No… No, I'm here, Min.”

 

Minnie extended a hand, bringing it to Miyeon's face. Her arm felt heavy, but she didn't care. 

Nicha began to trace Miyeon's face, forcing her eyes to stay open, she didn't want to miss even a moment of that beauty, for fear that the redhead would vanish into thin air.

 

“You're beautiful,” she whispered, cupping the girl's cheeks in her cold hands. “I love you so much… I love you so much that all the words in the world wouldn't be enough to describe it.”

 

Miyeon started to cry, bringing her face closer to Minnie's, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

 

“I love you too… I love you.” she whispered.

 

Nicha leaned up slightly, capturing Miyeon's lips in a bittersweet kiss.

The redhead kissed her back, while her tears fell on the Thai's face, mixing with hers.

The two smiled as they hugged each other, sharing a soft kiss.

Minnie pulled away, looking at Miyeon with narrowed eyes.

 

“You are so beautiful… my beautiful Dahlia… my Miyeon.” she whispered with a sweet smile on her lips, before losing consciousness in the redhead's arms.

 

Miyeon suppressed a sob, watching Nicha rest with that sweet smile on her lips, while she could do nothing but mirror her, as she caressed her cheeks.

 

“Min, I love you… I love you more than anything… Help me to accept a love as beautiful as the one you give me… please… help me.”

 

The redhead gave one last kiss on the girl's lips, trying with all her strength to let go of her grip on Minnie's hand, before getting up.

Miyeon left a post-it on the bedside table, along with a couple of pills, before leaving the house, tears still streaming down her face.

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 8: | Chapter 7 |

When Nicha woke up the next day, she smiled bitterly, convinced that what she had experienced was a dream, but as soon as she saw her bandaged hands, she realized it had really happened.

Minnie brought her hands to her face, smelling Miyeon's sweet scent on them.

The girl looked around, hoping to find the girl still there, but all that was left was a green post-it note.

 

“I wanted to stay, I really wanted to, but I knew that if I stayed,

I would no longer have the courage to let you go.

I hope you will remember my words… forever.

Please don't hurt yourself.

 

 

- Yeon.”

 

 

Nicha looked at the paper, remembering nothing from the previous night.

That paper made her more and more angry. If Miyeon really wanted to stay, why didn't she? They could have talked about it.

What interested Minnie the most was remembering what the redhead had told her the day before.

Only a few scattered scenes were present in her mind, until the memory of a kiss made its way.

Miyeon had kissed her, whispering a soft 'I love you' , but there was something missing.

Nicha tried hard to remember, but her mind refused.

The sculptor took her notebook, starting to draw Miyeon in every corner of the paper, until an idea crossed her mind.

The Thai grabbed her phone, calling Lisa, asking her to move the show up a month.

Nicha got out of bed, grabbing the medicine Miyeon had left on her nightstand, before returning to the garage.

Minnie looked up at the statue. It still caused her pain, but she felt as if there was some hope in her.

The Thai took some sandpaper, starting to clean up the marble, before getting to work.

Minnie took the metal pieces and clay, designing a new miniature, before ordering a new marble piece.

Nicha had bitten off more than she could chew, but she had to finish this work before the end of the month.

This work has to be displayed at the exhibition.

There was always a hidden message in Nicha's works, but this was the first time she created complementary statues.

 

The month passed and the work was finished.

 

Minnie had asked Lisa to send a VIP ticket to Miyeon and so she did.

The blonde was standing outside at Miyeon's apartment complex, ready to ring the doorbell, when someone touched her shoulder.

Lisa turned, seeing Miyeon behind her. The girl looked thin and tired and perhaps she too, like Nicha, had not had a good time separated from her friend.

 

“Miyeon,” Lisa said, surprised.

 

"Why are you here? Do you need something?" the redhead asked politely.

 

“I wanted to give you this,” the blonde said, handing the ticket to the girl. “It's from Nicha.”

 

Miyeon took the ticket, seeing the image of the statue with her appearance, smiling bitterly.

 

"How is she?" the redhead asked, looking up.

 

“She’s trying to move forward. I wanted to thank you for what you did last time, if it wasn't for you she would never have gotten treatment.” Lisa said.

 

"It's my fault, I had to do something to fix it." Miyeon said, looking at the note. “I miss her so much, but I don't want to bring her any more pain.”

 

“You love her too, don't you, Miyeon?”

 

“… Yes… I love her all myself, but I need help to accept myself.” Miyeon said, trying to swallow the tears that were building in her eyes. “For years my parents told me it's wrong to love someone of the same sex as you, for years they made me fear people like Nicha… and me. That evening I was scared and all I could think about was running away. The whole time, I did nothing but regret it and miss her. When I found her at her house, lying on the floor, unconscious, I feared the worst. There I realized that for everything I did to her, I don't deserve her... Minnie is the most fascinating and interesting person I could ever meet, and I... I let her slip away."

 

Miyeon was in tears at the end of her explanation and Lisa couldn't help but hug her, reassuring her.

 

“We all get scared and make mistakes, Miyeon. But what makes us lovable is when we do what we can to fix them by facing our fears. Minnie will understand.” Lisa said, confidently. “Come to the exhibition. Nicha has prepared a surprise just for you. Take this opportunity to talk to her.”

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 9: | Chapter 8 |

It was the evening of the exhibition.

Miyeon was still at her house, already dressed and wearing makeup, but her heart was heavy.

She was afraid. Afraid that Nicha would reject her. Afraid that Nicha would hate her.

At the same time, she couldn't wait to run to her. She couldn't wait to see her beautiful face.

The redhead got up from the bed, ready to go out.

She had to see Minnie. She had to talk to her. She had to apologize.

 

The redhead got on the bus, heading to the art gallery where Nicha's exhibition was displayed.

While on her way, it had started to snow, so the bus was stuck in traffic for several hours.

Miyeon arrived at the art gallery, seeing the building still lit, but empty.

The redhead saw one of the security men, stopping him.

 

“Is the exhibition finished?” she asked.

 

“Yes, we just closed.” said the man.

 

Miyeon began to panic, trying to explain to the man that she needed to come in.

 

“P-Please, I have to see it.” Miyeon said, showing her VIP ticket. “I have to see that exhibition today , I promised this to Nicha. I beg you."

 

“I'm sorry, miss. I can't let you in." said the man, inflexibly.

 

The redhead tried to bargain in every way, but the man wouldn't let her pass.

Miyeon sat on one of the snow-covered benches, under the snow, while some tears tracked her face.

She didn’t know what to do. All the buses were blocked due to the snow and there was nothing she could do.

Miyeon looked up, watching the snowflakes fall, when an umbrella covered her head.

The redhead wiped away her tears, looking at the figure before her eyes.

Nicha was there, in front of her.

 

“Yeon… you made it.” Minnie said, smiling slightly.

 

Miyeon said nothing, continuing to stare at Nicha as if she were a hallucination.

 

"Everything is fine?"

 

“A-Are you real?” the redhead asked, reaching out, touching the fabric of the sculptress’ coat.

 

"Yes I am."

 

Minnie offered her her hand and only then Miyeon noticed the bandage on it.

“Y-Your hand… isn't healed yet? Lisa told me you were fine.” Miyeon said, taking the Thai's hand in hers, starting to gently caress it.

 

“Hey, calm down. I'm fine, the chisel just slipped out of my hands while I was making my latest work.”

 

Miyeon lowered her head, handing her ticket to Minnie, surprising her.

 

“I'm sorry, I was late and couldn't see it.” the redhead said, saddened.

 

“Do you still want to see it?”

 

The girl looked up, looking into Nicha's eyes, before nodding.

Minnie vouched for her, allowing her to enter.

The whole gallery was for them.

The two remained silent, while Miyeon admired each individual work and its respective description, occasionally asking Nicha for details.

After an hour, the two girls reached the largest room in the gallery.

Miyeon saw not one, but two statues, placed one in front of the other, as if composing a scene.

The redhead carefully observed the faces of the two, remaining surprised.

 

“B-But that…”

 

One of the two had Nicha's face and appearance, while the other was like Miyeon’s face and body.

The brunette approached the display on which the description of the work was written, remaining even more surprised.

 

“This work is the most important of the entire exhibition.

It represents the artist's beloved muse... Her Dahlia .

In her left hand she has the sculptress's bleeding heart, now wounded.

In front of her is the sculptress herself who tries to get closer to her, but the girl is unreachable.

The work is incomplete, just like the love the artist felt for 

her beloved Dahlia.”

 

Miyeon could no longer see the letters, due to the tears that had formed in her eyes.

Nicha approached her, making her face her, finally seeing the girl’s tears.

 

“Yeon?”

 

“M-Min… Sorry… S-Sorry…” the girl murmured, while trying to dry the tears that were falling continuously.

 

Minnie approached her, caressing her face, taking a handkerchief, wiping away her tears, one by one.

 

“Lisa told me you have a lot to tell me.” the sculptress whispered, caressing her face. “Do you want to go to my house? It's snowing and your house is far away from here, but I should be able to get to my house with my car.”

 

Miyeon nodded, remaining silent.

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 10: | Chapter 9 |

The two girls arrived at Nicha's house.

The Thai turned on the lights, making Miyeon sit in the living room, before going to get some pieces of firewood.

Minnie returned, lighting the fireplace, hearing the redhead still silent.

 

“Are you hungry, Yeon?” the girl asked, crouching down next to Miyeon.

 

The girl looked up, looking at Minnie with shining eyes, before speaking.

 

“I know I have no right,” she began, trying to hold back tears. “But… Will you let me hug you?”

Nicha smiled slightly, opening her arms, letting the girl come closer to her, being enveloped in a warm embrace.

The two remained silent for a few minutes, enjoying the moment.

 

“Y-You don't know how much, I missed you… I was an idiot and I missed my chance.” Miyeon said, stepping back, looking Minnie in the eyes, trying to reach her face.

 

Miyeon was hesitant, she didn't know if she had the right, but she wanted so much to caress her face.

The Thai noticed the girl's uncertainty, gently grabbing her wrists, guiding her hands to her face.

Miyeon's thumbs began to rub her cheekbones, making her relax. The redhead was so focused.

 

“Do you hate me, Nicha?” Miyeon asked bravely, fearing the Thai's response.

 

Minnie stayed silent, looking at Miyeon. The girl's eyes were terrified by her silence.

Nicha shook her head slightly, smiling bitterly, stroking the redhead's head.

 

“I tried, but my heart is stubborn. I'm still madly in love with you, Cho Miyeon.”

 

Miyeon began to sob, moving closer to the sculptress, swallowing her in a hug.

 

“I-I love you too, Minnie… I love you so much.” the brunette admitted, sobbing into the girl's shoulder. “I managed to admit it… I told you when you could finally listen to me.” Miyeon stepped back, looking into Nicha's now tear-filled eyes. “I love you, Nicha.”

 

Minnie remained silent, while tears tracked her face, but she needed to listen to the girl, without interruptions.

 

“I was scared that night, I've never liked a girl before and I've always been told that it's against human nature to be in love with someone of the same sex. I didn't want to hurt you, all those words I said to you were also addressed to myself." the redhead explained as she continued to caress Nicha's cheekbones. “I love you, I truly love you and I will do anything to prove it to you… If you give me the opportunity.”

 

Nicha was silent as she looked at Miyeon. The redhead felt like she was dying, that silence didn't seem to bode well.

Miyeon removed her hands from Minnie's face, bringing them to her legs.

 

“Sorry, I was selfish. I shouldn't have asked you that." Miyeon lowered her head, feeling her heart shatter.

 

She knew she deserved it.

All she could think about was Minnie and the pain she had caused her.

Have you also felt this pain? Maybe it was even worse… and it's all my fault.

Miyeon started sobbing, making Nicha worried.

 

“M-Miyeon, why are you crying?” the Thai asked, caressing her face.

 

“I-I made you suffer, it's my fault you suffered because of me. S-Sorry."

 

Minnie smiled, silencing Miyeon with a peck on the lips.

The redhead looked up, seeing the smile on Nicha's lips.

 

“Sorry, I didn't know how else to shut you up.” admitted the Thai, blushing. "I love you too. I think I've said it enough. And I'm ready to give it a try.”

 

Miyeon grabbed the collar of the girl's jacket, pulling her closer, stealing a soft kiss from her lips.

The two's lips molded, while their arms held them tightly together. Finally a complete and uninterrupted kiss.

Minnie stepped back, resting her forehead on Miyeon's, kissing the tip of her nose.

 

"I love you."

 

"I love you."

 

Nicha got up from the floor, taking off her jacket, taking Miyeon's too, hanging them, before returning to the girl.

The two sat on the rug next to the fire, holding hands.

Miyeon smiled, stealing a kiss from Minnie's cheek.

The sculptress smiled, stealing one from Miyeon's lips. The kiss was more passionate than the others the two had shared, Miyeon wanted to express her love and gratitude in it.

Their lips molded and caressed, the sound of their kisses filled the room along with the crackling of the fire in front of them.

Nicha's hands on the small of her back, pressing against her, while Miyeon's hands were on the Thai's neck, trying to get as close to her as possible.

Minnie separated from Miyeon's lips, giving her a kiss on the cheek and one on the jaw, slowly making her way to her neck, licking it.

Miyeon blushed, slowly backing away, looking down.

 

“M-Min…”

 

You don’t feel ready? It's okay if you want to wait."the Thai said, taking the girl's hands in hers, placing a kiss on each of them.

 

“It's not that… I've never done it… especially with a girl.”

 

Minnie smiled at the cuteness. Miyeon was really pure and naive.

 

"I'll be gentle, I promise." Nicha said, looking at the redhead. “I'll guide you… Do you trust me?”

 

“More than anyone else.”

Chapter 11: | Chapter 10 |

Summary:

⚠️🫣 Smut warning 🫣⚠️

Nicha's room was getting hotter and hotter, the two girls' bodies were intertwined in a soft embrace, while their lips were still glued together.

Miyeon was straddling Nicha's legs, her hand was on her cheek, while the other was tangled in her black hair.

Their lips continued to desperately mold and caress, while subtle smiles grew on their lips.

The Thai's hands were on the redhead's thighs, caressing them softly with her thumbs. Miyeon could feel the warmth of Minnie's hands through her socks, feeling the fine hairs on her body stand on end at the mere contact.

Miyeon pulled away, looking into Minnie's eyes as she caressed her cheek with her thumb. The two girls were breathing heavily and their cheeks were red, but their eyes were fixed on each other.

The redhead smiled, placing a kiss on her cheeks, then one on her jaw, lifting the girl's head slightly to gain more access.

Nicha closed her eyes, feeling Miyeon's lips on every inch of her neck.

Minnie wrapped her arms around her, giving her a hug, letting her rest her head on her shoulder, rubbing her back.

Miyeon was relaxed in those strong arms.

 

"I love you so much." the Thai whispered, closing her eyes, before falling backwards onto the bed.

 

The redhead was on top, her head on Minnie’s breast, listening to her heartbeat.

Miyeon took Minnie's bandaged hand, giving it a kiss.

 

"I love you too."

 

Minnie rolled over on the bed, switching their positions, looking intensely into Miyeon's eyes.

The Thai took the girl's face in her hands, giving her a kiss on the lips.

Nicha backed away, unbuttoning her shirt, remaining only in the bra, before approaching Miyeon, helping her to stand up from her legs

The girl was now sitting on the bed, while Minnie kissed her cheeks.

Miyeon didn't know where to look, in front of her was Nicha's breasts, still covered by the bra, but with the bulge sticking out of each cup.

The redhead tried to look away, but Minnie grabbed her chin, stroking it gently.

 

"You can watch." Nicha whispered, before placing her hands on the girl's back, reaching for the zipper. "Can I?"

 

Miyeon was red-faced, but nodded. She trusted Minnie and felt her gentleness in every action.

Nicha approached her, giving her a kiss on the lips, not a sensual kiss, but soft and gentle, without haste, as she unzipped her dress, letting it fall down her shoulders.

Minnie helped Miyeon remove her dress, leaving the girl in just her underwear and stockings.

Nicha took off her pants, doing the same with Miyeon's pantyhose.

She wanted to make sure that both of them were naked at the same time, so as not to make Miyeon feel embarrassed, but also to share every single second.

Minnie helped Miyeon lie down on the bed, positioning herself on top of her, trying to keep herself on her elbows and knees. Nicha smiled, moving some strands of hair from the redhead's face, admiring her as if she were a marble statue lying on her bed.

Minnie kissed her on the eyelid while caressing her jaw.

 

"Are you  nervous?" the sculptor whispered gently, looking into Miyeon's eyes.

 

The redhead nodded shyly, trying to avoid Minnie's gaze.

 

“Look at me, Yeon.” Minnie whispered, taking the hand of the girl who was now looking at her. “Touch me, Yeon.” she whispered, placing the girl's hand on her collarbone. "Don’t be nervous. I'm with you, we'll do it together."

 

Minnie placed a kiss on the girl's forehead, feeling her hands reach the back of her neck, stroking the short hair on her nape.

Nicha's kisses moved from her face to her neck, moving lower and lower, until they reached her breasts.

Minnie left a kiss on it, before reaching Miyeon's back, grabbing the clasp of her bra, freeing it.

The Thai stopped, stepping back slightly.

 

“Do you want to take off my bra, Yeon?” Minnie asked, caressing the girl's face.

 

The redhead blushed, but slowly her hands reached the Thai's back, timidly unhooking her bra.

Minnie smiled, pressing a kiss to Miyeon's cheekbone, before grabbing both bras and throwing them on the floor, along with their clothes.

The two hugged each other, making their nipples touch.

Miyeon felt relaxed. Minnie was so kind and didn't make her feel uncomfortable about her body.

Slowly, Minnie began to leave soft kisses on the girl's shoulder.

 

“You look beautiful, Yeon.” she whispered as she continued kissing the girl's skin. “As beautiful as freshly carved marble, as beautiful as a dahlia freshly bloomed, beautiful like Aphrodite, beautiful as only Cho Miyeon can be.”

 

With each compliment, Miyeon's face became redder and redder and her heart beat faster and faster.

Nicha reached Miyeon's breast, leaving a kiss between the two mountains, softly approaching one of the two nipples, before taking it between her lips.

Miyeon moaned at the contact of Nicha's wet lips on her skin and the pleasant sensation it brought to her nipples.

Minnie took Miyeon's other boob in her hands, hearing the girl suppress a moan as she slowly began to massage, brushing the nipple with her thumb.

The more time passed, the more needy Miyeon started to become. The redhead wanted the Thai's mouth and hands all over her body.

Slowly Nicha moved her hand from Miyeon's breast, bringing it to the girl's center, tracing the slit with her fingertips, feeling the wetness. Miyeon moaned in pleasure, blushing, while Minnie still had her mouth on her breast and her hand on her center.

 

“M-Min…”

 

Minnie separated briefly, grabbing the elastic of the redhead's panties, pulling them down.

Miyeon raised herself slightly, making the sculptress' work easier.

Nicha stopped to admire Miyeon's nakedness, caressing her thighs softly.

 

"No work of art would ever be comparable to your beauty, not even the famous Canova’s sculpture of Paolina Borghese.” Nicha whispered, moving closer to the girl's belly, covering it with wet kisses. “You're so perfect, Yeon.”

 

Miyeon’s face was red. Slowly the redhead reached the back of Minnie's neck, caressing it.

Nicha reached behind Miyeon's thighs, lifting her legs, letting her feet rest on the bed.

Minnie slowly moved closer to the girl's center, placing a kiss on her clit.

Miyeon brought her hands to her face, trying to cover herself from embarrassment, while Nicha's tongue began to do its job, lubricating the area, sucking gently on her clit.

Minnie reached up, moving Miyeon's hands from her face, giving her a kiss on the lips.

 

“Don't cover your face, you're beautiful.” Nicha whispered, before reaching down and taking one of Miyeon's nipples between her lips, while her hand was between the girl's folds, trying to lubricate.

 

Miyeon moaned, wrapping her arms around the Thai's neck, closing her eyes.

Nicha stopped, placing her fingers at the entrance, pressing slowly.

 

"Can I?" the Thai asked.

 

“W-Will it hurt?” Miyeon asked innocently.

 

“Not too much, just at the beginning, but I will wait until you feel comfortable to go on.”

 

“T-Then it's okay.”

 

Nicha placed her fingers at Miyeon's entrance and began to press, until they were completely buried inside her. A loud moan escaped Miyeon's lips as she wrapped Minnie tightly in her arms.

The girl didn't move, waiting for Miyeon to adjust.

Minnie left Miyeon's breast, moving closer to her face, giving her a quick kiss on her lips and cheeks.

The Thai slowly began to move her fingers in and out of her.

Slowly the speed of Minnie's fingers increased, causing pleasure to the redhead.

Nicha added another finger, careful not to dirty the gauze that wrapped her palm, receiving a moan from Miyeon with each thrust as she ran her thumb over her clit, feeling it harden under her touch.

The Thai captured her lips again, while her hand continued to push in and out.

Miyeon's eyes were now closed from too much pleasure, while with the movement of her hips she met Minnie's thrusts.

Minnie kissed Miyeon's cheek, then her jaw, then her neck, until she reached her breast again. She bowed her head, lightly massaging one nipple with her tongue before doing so with the other. She took the nipple into her mouth and sucked on it, feeling the girl tremble in her arms.

 

"M-Min..." Miyeon moaned, with pleasure. “I-I'm close…” she moaned, tightening her arms around Minnie as she continued to move her hips.

 

"I'm here, Yeon. I got you." Nicha whispered lovingly in her ear as she continued to give her sweet kisses on her forehead and cheeks.

 

After a few minutes Miyeon came and a warm liquid flowed between her legs, while she was still hugging Nicha. The Thai did nothing but caress her hips and fill her face with kisses, waiting for the brunette to recover.

Minnie was still on top of Miyeon, admiring her.

 

"Are you tired?" the Thai asked, giving her a kiss on her breast, while slowly catching her breath.

 

“Y-Yes, but… it doesn't seem right that I'm the only one who felt pleasure.” Miyeon said, embarrassed, as Minnie wiped away her sweat with her thumb. “I want you to feel something too.”

 

Minnie smiled, giving the girl a kiss on the lips.

 

"If you say so…"

 

Nicha got up from the bed, taking off her underwear, before returning to the girl.

The Thai lifted the redhead's leg, placing it on her shoulder, before placing her folds on those of the girl beneath her, forming scissors.

They both moaned at the contact of their wet folds.

Minnie leaned towards the brunette, giving her a kiss on the forehead.

 

"Let's do it… together." the Thai whispered, before starting to rock back and forth.

 

Nicha was still out of breath, but the pleasure that was building in their bodies was stronger.

Minnie began to grind their folds, causing pleasure in both, making both reach their orgasm.

Miyeon looked up, looking at Minnie and her bare torso, still rocking on top of her.

To the redhead that view was so sexy.

Nicha pulled her head back, while maintaining the same rhythm.

Her forehead was sweaty so Miyeon reached out to her face, stroking her face, wiping her temples, before holding onto her shoulders. Both girls were a mess of moans and sweat as they tried to reach their peaks.

 

“I-I'm close, Min.” Miyeon said, while her eyes were closed.

 

“Me too, Yeon… let's cum together.” Minnie whispered, increasing her speed.

 

The redhead's legs were shaking from tiredness and too much pleasure.

They both moaned, reaching orgasm, slowly trying to catch their breath.

The two were exhausted.

Nicha lay down on the bed, making Miyeon lie on top of her, letting her use her breasts as a pillow.

Slowly the redhead realized what had just happened, blushing as she tried to cover her face.

Minnie looked down, smiling, before reaching for the blanket to cover their naked bodies.

 

“It's okay, don't be shy.” she whispered, hugging her, giving her a kiss on her forehead. “I love you, Yeon.”

 

Miyeon looked up, looking at the girl.

 

“Do I really deserve your love, Min?” the redhead asked, worried.

 

Nicha began to caress her back, as she slowly guided her into a soft embrace.

 

“I think what we just did is enough of a confirmation, don't you think? I don't take sex lightly, for me it is an important act to share only with those I love. I love you, Yeon, and I think everyone needs a second chance,” Minnie said, reassuring her. “Do you want to be my girlfriend, Miyeon?”

 

Miyeon was red in the face as she looked at the girl with eyes full of love.

 

“Yes… yes, I want it.” Miyeon whispered, capturing the Thai's lips, tightening her arms around her naked body. "I love you."

 

The two spent a few more minutes talking. Miyeon enjoyed these sweet post-sex conversations, Nicha was so calm and relaxed as she spoke and Miyeon knew she could stay there for hours listening to her, but sleep soon got the better of them.

 

To Be Continued...

Chapter 12: | Epilogue |

5 years later…

 

Miyeon opened her eyes, seeing the light pass through the window, before feeling a weight on her.

The brunette looked down, seeing Nicha resting on her breast.

A lot had changed in five years. The two girls had now been married for two years.

Miyeon no longer had red hair, but dark brown.

Nicha had started to have international exhibitions, taking the opportunity to travel with her new family, often returning to Thailand to visit her parents.

The brunette shook Nicha slightly, trying to wake her up, starting to fill her with kisses.

 

“Min, wake up, I have to go to work.” the girl whispered, stroking the girl's messy hair.

 

Minnie snuggled closer, holding Miyeon close, giving her a soft kiss on her collarbone, before slowly opening her eyes.

Nicha stood up, positioning herself over Miyeon, smiling at her.

 

"Good morning my love." Minnie said in a hoarse voice, before starting to pepper the girl's face with kisses. “Until the day I die, I’ll keep wondering how you can be so beautiful in the early morning.”

 

Miyeon smiled, capturing Minnie's lips between hers.

The two began kissing, until they were interrupted by a tender cry.

 

“I'll go,” Nicha whispered, giving her wife another peck on the lips, before heading towards the crib.

 

Another new thing had arrived in their lives. The two girls had decided to try to have a daughter and that's how Dahlia came into their lives.

The little girl was only two years old and looked like Miyeon.

Nicha loved the two, trying to make them happy every day of their lives.

Minnie picked up Dahlia, hugging her.

 

“Hey, why are you crying? Mom is here.” Minnie said, smiling, making the little girl stop crying. “You are much more beautiful when you smile. You are as beautiful as your mommy."

 

Miyeon smiled at the compliment and watched her wife playing with their daughter.

 

“Bring her here, maybe she's hungry.”

 

"Are you hungry?" Minnie asked playfully, stealing a kiss from the little girl's cheek, before handing her over to Miyeon.

 

Every morning was like this, Miyeon was breastfeeding their little girl, while Nicha prepared breakfast, going to wake up Haku, all before the brunette went to work, leaving her wife, daughter and dog together.

Minnie was reliable, spending much of her time at home, while working on something new, leaving Dahlia to rest. When the little girl woke up, Nicha fed her, dressed her and put her in her carrier, taking her to the park for a walk with Haku.

 

After a few hours, Miyeon left, leaving the two and Haku alone.

Dahlia was in her high chair, watching cartoons, while Nicha was washing the dishes and Haku was resting in his dog bed.

Having finished washing the dishes, Nicha approached Dahlia, taking her into her arms, smelling a foul odor.

 

“Did our little Dahlia poop?” the Thai asked, playfully, lifting the little girl's shirt, filling her with kisses on her belly, making her laugh.

 

Minnie took Dahlia into the bathroom, laying her down on the changing table, undressing her.

 

“A cute little girl needs a bath.” Minnie asked, tickling the little girl, making her smile. “Who has to take a bath?”

 

"MEEE!" Dahlia exclaimed in her little voice.

 

The little girl smiled, extending her hands, grabbing Minnie's face making her mom smile.

Nicha washed the little girl's butt before starting to prepare the bath water.

The woman undressed, sitting in the tub with Dahlia in her arms, starting to wash her little body, tickling her.

The little girl loved spending time with her mom.

Both Nicha and Miyeon were loving mothers. They both dedicated their time to their daughter, making her feel loved. Even while working, they let Dahlia stay with them, while they completed their work.

Once the bath was finished, Minnie took the bathrobe, wrapping it around herself and Dahlia, taking a photo, sending it to her wife.

Miyeon loved receiving photos of her wife and their daughter while she was at work, it motivated her to finish early so she could get home as soon as possible.

“I can't wait to go home”

 

Minnie and Dahlia headed to Nicha's studio, where the Thai began making new sketches for her works. Soon there would be a new exhibition and the girl wanted to present her new works.

Dahlia sat on Minnie's lap while she drew. The little girl extended an arm, pointing to the clay, which to her eyes looked like play dough.

Dahlia turned to Nicha, touching her hand.

 

“Mom, can we play with plasticine?” the little girl asked, making Nicha smile.

 

"Of course." the Thai exclaimed, closing her notebook.

 

While the two were playing with clay, Nicha had an idea.

For her new exhibition, she would display her new creations made with Dahlia.

The two played, getting their hands dirty, making the strangest figures, according to the little girl's requests.

Hours passed and Minnie didn't hear that Miyeon had returned.

The brunette saw her wife and daughter on the floor of her studio, working the clay, laughing.

Miyeon took a few pictures before entering the room.

 

“Looks like you had fun this morning, right Dahlia?” Miyeon asked, surprising the two.

 

Dahlia rose from the floor, running to Miyeon.

 

“MAMA!” 

 

The brunette leaned towards her, showering her with kisses on her soft, pink cheeks.

Nicha walked over to her wife and daughter, picking up Dahlia, before placing a kiss on Miyeon's lips.

 

"Welcome back, love." Nicha whispered, capturing Miyeon's lips.

 

Dahlia smiled, hugging her two moms, giving them both a kiss on the cheek.

The three had lunch together. Dahlia told Miyeon about her day, making her smile, while Haku barked for attention, receiving a few pats on the head from the brunette.

Miyeon was lucky to have Nicha in her life, so available and ready to help her.

After lunch, Miyeon helped Dahlia fall asleep while Minnie washed the dishes and the kitchen.

The brunette walked back into the kitchen, hugging Nicha from behind, giving her a kiss on the shoulder.

 

“I'm so lucky to have you.” the brunette whispered.

 

Nicha turned, picking up her wife, carrying her to the couch, where Haku was resting.

 

“I'm lucky to have you too.” she whispered, kissing her.

 

Miyeon was sitting on Minnie's lap, while her head was on her breast.

 

"How was your day?" Nicha asked, stroking her back.

 

The brunette briefly talked about how stressful it had been and how the photo of Nicha and Dahlia had lifted her mood.

Minnie started giving kisses on her forehead, caressing her back, making the woman relax.

Miyeon closed her eyes, feeling protected in her wife's arms, slowly falling asleep.

Nicha got up, carrying Miyeon into their bedroom, laying her down next to Dahlia.

Minnie took the little girl in her arms, lying next to Miyeon, letting Dahlia and Miyeon rest their heads on her breast, hugging them.

 

"I love you." Nicha whispered, placing a kiss on both of their foreheads.

 

“I love you too, Min.” Miyeon whispered, lifting her head, placing a kiss on her wife's lips, placing her hand on Dahlia's back, caressing her.

 

The three slept together, hugging each other, sharing love and warmth. Even Haku reached the three, climbing onto their bed, falling asleep too along with his family.

From a simple second chance a beautiful love story and a family was born.

Minnie loved Miyeon with the same passion she felt the day she saw her in that park and Miyeon loved and admired Nicha with the same interest she had five years ago.

Nicha truly treated her like one of her works of art, making her feel special.

The two were happy and Dahlia was too, feeling loved every day by her two mothers.

 

The End
