In strike 12am in the middle of the night, the only light beaming through the phone was the only visible thing. It had been an hour since they started calling and they won't get tired of it. It's like the most precious time in the whole universe. "I just want to see you and hold your hand until you fall asleep."
Yuri bit her lower lip as her eyes straightly stares at her girlfriend's. Those round dark colored pleading orbs that stores all the emotions they've been keeping. "Just a little bit more time Yena." yawning heavily she stretched her arms up.
Yuri has been living in a dorm and only comes home twice a month. Since her school is too far from her actual home she had to rent and leave her girlfriend to continue her studies with less struggle.
"But still... I can't take it anymore." Yena groaned in frustration, her desire to see the younger in person, the urge to cuddle and act lovey dovey everywhere. How Yena wish she could just jump right through the screen and give her girlfriend the tightest hug.
Yuri could feel the disappointment in the older's tone. She can't do anything about it, it's not like comforting Yena would actually help at times like this. "Are you giving up on me?" if achieving her dream to become a registered nurse will just take her away from her girlfriend then she would rather drop and shift courses.
Yena is her dream as well, she can't afford to lose someone so special and dear to her.
"No in a hell way!" a yell from the other side of the screen radiated. "I'm not going to ruin your goals in life." the older calmed down a bit and turned herself sideways. "I guess I'm just tired."
Noticing a thin light black color of layer under Yena's closing eyes the younger heaved a sigh of distress. "Rest now." she ordered and faked a smile.
"I will later, I still want to talk to you." nothing is much relaxing and worth it than spending time talking to you loved one. This is the only time Yena could freely talk with her girlfriend without Yuri giving full attention on papers or reviewers.
Though it's really nice to finally have spare time, it's already too late and they still have school tomorrow. "I don't want to be the cause of your eye bags, go sleep." Yuri was really worried of the other's condition, most especially when she's not around to take things on care.
"But babe--" Yena was about to protest but the exhaustion emitting on her girlfriend's eyes speaks up too loud. "...Fine." but of course there's nothing she can do.
Covering herself with a blanket with her other free hand the younger kept her eyes visible, while covering the rest. "I love you.." she mouthed and gestured a kiss in the camera. "So much, please understand." as much as she wants to talk all night long their academics are barricades.
"Mhm." Yena hummed and turned off the lampshade, giving zero visibility in her side. The only thing that happened was the random inaudibly sounds and thuds, nothing more nothing less.
"Are you mad?"
"I'm going to end the call already."
This took Yuri by surprise, causing for a sharp gasp to escape. That was intentionally rude and sudden. "Did you just skipped my question?" her sleepiness turned to eagerness to know why the older acted this way.
"You were saying?" like Yena didn't hear anything from the younger's mouth. "Sorry I did something." she reasoned and temporarily flicked on the light beside her. Clearly showing her bare face, a messy hair and a blanket all over herself.
Though it sounds obvious that the older did it on purpose, Yuri would likely not to end the call with them having misunderstanding between but she's worn off as hell. "Nothing."
