You’d known Sooyoung for as long as you could remember—chasing each other through backyards, sharing popsicles in the summer, and falling asleep during movie nights before either of you hit the halfway mark.

Now, older but not much different, the two of you were curled up on the couch under a fuzzy blanket. The TV hummed quietly in the background, but you weren’t paying attention to it. Sooyoung’s head rested on your shoulder, her fingers gently fidgeting with the hem of your sleeve.

“You’re warm..” She mumbled sleepily.
