Were you that scared, Su? It’s all right now, okay? Everything’s going to be okay!”
Mia reassured me as she wrapped her arms around me. Ah… this warmth, the soft comfort of being enveloped in her body—it soothed me. I didn’t want to think about anything right now. I just wanted to sink into this embrace.
“S-Su! U-Um, did your lips touch?”
I stiffened and looked up at Mia.
“Ah! I’m sorry! I made you remember it, didn’t I? I’m so sorry!”
“No! It’s fine! They… didn’t touch… They didn’t, it’s fine!”
“Really?! Really, really? That’s great. I’m so relieved. That would’ve been your first… I’m so glad.”
Mia spoke softly and held me even tighter
only thing I could wish for was that the person’s lips were at least as soft as Mia’s. I wished for a gentle mouth like hers to touch mine… Such a… such a beautiful…
“Su?”
I gasped. Has she noticed my gaze? Did I look too eager? Overwhelmed with embarrassment, I buried my face in Mia’s chest, trying to hide.
“Say, Su, let me see your face.”
I shook my head, pressing my face deeper into her bosom. I knew exactly what kind of expression I had right now. I couldn’t let Mia see it!
“Su, please. I want to see it.” Mia’s hands moved to cup my cheeks, her fingertips brushing against the nape of my neck.
“No! No!”
(Oh no! If she touches me like that there… I’ll—!)
My body jolted, and my head snapped up. Mia gently clasped my cheeks, turning my face toward her.
I could feel my breath becoming ragged. My cheeks burned, and my eyes shimmered with heat. I must have looked so, so improper right now.
“Su… Ah, Su! It’s my first time seeing such a cute expression on you!”
“No!”
I was embarrassed! I was so embarrassed I wanted to hide my face, but Mia didn’t stop looking at me. My cheeks flushed an even deeper shade of red, and my heart pounded so loudly I was sure she could feel it against her chest

My legs nearly gave out, and I clung to Mia, wrapping my arms around her back to steady myself. Then… Mia’s face drew closer. If this continued, then… This was bad. I couldn’t look away from Mia’s lips anymore. My lips parted slightly as if anticipating something completely beyond my control.
“Su…”
The next moment, I felt a soft touch on my lips
3.
The warmth pressed against my lips was so gentle, so enveloping, it felt like I was melting. But then, just as quickly, it was gone.
I wanted… I wished… I could have stayed like that a little longer.
“Aah…”
A quiet, longing sound escaped me as the warmth disappeared, leaving nothing behind.
My gaze followed Mia’s lips hungrily as they moved away. Mia’s smile was incredibly tender as she watched me, my face still cupped between her hands.
“Su, was that your first time?” She asked, her voice filled with happiness.
“Mhm…” Embarrassment flooded me, and I averted my gaze from Mia.
“Did you… not like it? Do you… hate me now?” Mia pulled her hand away from my cheek, her voice tinged with sadness. Hearing that, I quickly turned my face to her.
“No! I don’t… hate you! I don’t! I like…”
The words spilled out of me in desperation. But the moment they left my mouth, I realized that saying I don’t hate it could easily be taken as an invitation for more.
And worse—I had actually said I liked it! Too embarrassing! Flustered, I lowered my head, trying to hide my burning face.
“Thank you, Su. I loved it too!”
Mia cupped my cheeks once more, gently rubbing her forehead against mine, then brushing her nose against mine before placing a soft kiss on its tip. Finally, she pulled me into a tight embrace.
“Aah.”
(Won’t she kiss me again
4?)
A quiet gasp escaped me before I could stop it.
I likely looked too eager at that moment. Mia’s expression softened into a smile—one I had never seen before.
Those eyes…It was the first time I had truly seen Mia’s eyes like this. They were so captivating, so utterly mesmerizing that I couldn’t bring myself to meet them directly. It felt as if she could see right through me, through my shameful desires, making me feel like running away.
And yet… I wanted to see more. I wanted to be seen.
Mia cupped my cheek, and I placed my hand over hers, sinking into her warmth. Her eyes softened, narrowing with quiet happiness
