@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna tilted her head and raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had always read that angels were innocent personalities, but never had she heard of certain words being banned. The thought caused her to giggle. "You can say 'y' here, Taeyeon. It's not like the mentors ban words here." She poked Taeyeon's cheek with her free hand and grinned teasingly at her. Her teasing expression turned shy when Taeyeon began to pout. That pout was too adorable to resist, even if Hyuna was embarrassed. She sighed and took her hand away from Taeyeon's forehead, "Fine, fine. Turn around! I can't rap with you looking at me." She muttered, closing her own eyes so she wouldn't see Taeyeon. Singing in front of people always embarrassed her.

@HT_Hyuna "Er S-Sorry...Back in heaven, using the word y was kind off limits...That's why." Taeyeon uneasily explained, still feeling a bit flustered after using the word to describe the latter's voice. The skin of forehead tingled slightly when Hyuna's cool fingers pressed gently against her hot forehead. The angel girl swore she even heard a small hissing sound at the extreme contrast between the temperatures of their skin coming into contact. "And it is! It is -I mean, it's r-really attractive! It's n-not weird at a-all!" She babbled out. "I d-do want to hear it~" Taeyeon whined slightly, her lower lip jutting into a pout. "Pretty please? I've only heard rap like once in my life and it wasn't very good...There aren't a lot of rappers up in heaven."

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna's pout turned into a grin, her eyebrows going up at Taeyeon's blush. Hearing the word 'y' from the angel's mouth was unexpected, illiciting a chuckle from Hyuna. "Why so bashful, Taeyeon?" She mistook embarrassment for something else, leaning forward to touch Taeyeon's forehead as if the blush was due to a condition. "Yah, my voice isn't y. It's just weird." Her eyes widened at the request, quickly shaking her head and holding her other hand up defensively. "No! You don't wanna hear that!!" She looked down and mumbled, "It's bad.."

@HT_Hyuna "That's exactly why I sing alone!" Taeyeon exclaimed, amazed at how Hyuna had exactly pin pointed the pros of singing alone. Another slight blush heated her cheeks up again as the latter commented on her voice being beautiful for the second time that day. The angel girl then watched as Hyuna pouted and stared back at her reflection in the pond; complaining about how she had a deep voice. "But deep v-voices are s-y..." She quietly spoke. Taeyeon's eyes then widened when she heard the last sentence from her friend; the unknown fact that the latter rapped. "You can rap? Let's hear it~" She said, shaking the other girl's arm.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna hummed and nodded in understanding. "I guess it is easier to sing when no one's around. It's less nervous then." She smiled at Taeyeon, "But you have such a beautiful voice I don't know why you would be worried about people hearing you." She pouted then, crossing her arms as she stared at their reflections again, "Me, on the other hand, I have such a deep voice that it's embarrassing to sing in front of people." She sighed unhappily. "I sound okay when I rap though.."

@HT_Hyuna She giggled when the other girl hugged her, her voice rising in excitement at her smile and the happy look reflected in the pond right by Hyuna's bright face. The latter was right. A happy looking Taeyeon indeed looked much more better than a sad looking Taeyeon. Deep lines of sadness didn't crease anywhere when she smiled. The angel's smile only widened when Hyuna poked at her cheek. She then asked her in curiosity what she was doing in the garden alone, if she had just came here to sing. "Yeah, I came out here to sing...I thought I was alone, until you came." She said, looking back up at her companion with a beam.

@AT_Taeyeon "I didn't know that.. I guess we don't have much of a welcoming committee here, huh?" She shrugged sheepishly. "But I'm glad me greeting you made you happy, Taeyeon." Hyuna's smile brightened when Taeyeon smiled back at her. She hugged the angel in her excitement, "There's the look I'm looking for!!!" She pulled away and grinned at her, turning the two of them to their reflections in the pond. "See? You look much better when you're happy." She poked Taeyeon's cheek for emphasis and looked at her curiously, "Nae, what were you doing out here by yourself? Did you just want to sing?"

@HT_Hyuna Staring into her deep honey brown orbs, Taeyeon almost got entranced by them and had been close to forgetting what she had wanted to say to the other girl. "But you are a k-kind person...No one else greeted m-me when I f-first came into the mansion..But y-you did." The angel girl pointed out with a sniffle, as the other girl brushed away the tears on her cheeks. She stared back into Hyuna's mesmerizing dark brown eyes that contained pure and genuine looks of care; getting hypnotized by their beauty. When Hyuna indirectly referred to her as a friend, Taeyeon's heart was officially touched. To know that the latter considered her as a friend was so grateful. And that with Hyuna's other statement to her of looking better when happy was what caused a smile to be created onto her lips. "Friends help each other out." She repeated back.

@AT_Taeyeon Taeyeon's comment caught Hyuna by surprise and she giggled lightly, shrugging the shoulder Taeyeon wasn't leaning on. "It's not necessarily that I'm kind." She'd never considered comforting someone as kind or not, simply thinking it was the natural thing to do. She leaned over so that she and Taeyeon were eye to eye. "I just don't like seeing my friends upset. Friends help each other out, right?" She smiled, wiping the tear tracks off of Taeyeon's cheeks, "Besides, you look so much better when you're happy, Taeyeon."

@HT_Hyuna She rested her cheek against the crook of Hyuna's shoulder. The latter smelt so lovely and even her scent had an effect of sedating her troubled and upsetting emotions. Feeling the other girl's head gently rest atop her own, Taeyeon slightly tightened her embrace around Hyuna. Her against her back between her wings were like what her mother had used to do to her during horrific nights of war in Heaven, when the sounds of distant bombing prevented her from sleeping. Such a nice girl Hyuna was, comforting her like this and being the first one to greet her when she had been new and alone to the mansion. "You're such a kind person, Hyuna..." Taeyeon croaked out, voicing out her thoughts for the other. "Thank you..."

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna smiled softly and shook her head, patting Taeyeon's hair lightly. "Aniyo, there's nothing to be sorry about. Sometimes we just have to let our feelings out. There's nothing wrong with that." She rested her head on top of Taeyeon's, not really knowing what to do. Hyuna was always bad at cheering others up, so she just comforted Taeyeon the way she remembered her mother used to do for her. She kept stroking Taeyeon's back, noticing that the gesture seemed to calm her. "It's prefectly normal to cry, Taeyeon." She spoke again, trying to reassure her.

@HT_Hyuna Hearing at how Hyuna was apologizing now because of her sudden tears, Taeyeon fiercely wiped away at her tears; feeling embarrassed. She was such a baby, crying all the time. Things that she should just let go of needed to be let go of; a bridge to be built and gotten over with. "I'm s-sorry...There was just s-something in my eye..." She softly said, forcing a smile upon her lips. More tears still spilled down her cheeks. Damn it, what the heck was wrong with her? Why was she still crying?! And then the warm embrace from the other girl came, enveloping her in comfort and security. Soothing rubs d at her backside between her wings; the subtle motion adding to the tranquility of the hug. "I'm sorry for being like this..." Taeyeon whispered again, as she wrapped her arms around the girl back, wanting a few more seconds of the assurance that the girl's hug was bringing her.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna's smile slowly fell as she looked at Taeyeon, noticing her tears. "Yah, Taeyeon! What's wrong?" She scooted closer and hugged her, not knowing what else to do. "I really meant it, you know. It's not bad.. and I wasn't laughing to be mean." Not understanding Taeyeon's sudden sadness, she mistook it to be because of her. "I'm sorry if I made you feel bad.. I won't laugh at you anymore, okay?" She rubbed Taeyeon's back between her wings, trying to calm the crying girl.

@HT_Hyuna Her smile softened, her head lowering to look at her own reflection casted in the pond's water. "I know it's not a bad thing to be funny..." She said, her voice drifting off. Being funny gave one the ability to easily cheer people up, to make even the hardest situations tolerable with a bit of humor. To make someone smile or laugh was certainly a great gift. She missed the times when she would act like a dork and make a complete fool out of herself, just to make her lover laugh and smile...She missed hearing Yoona's hearty laugh and her beautiful smile. The other angel was right by her side, attached to her right on the wing; they were closer than ever. However, Taeyeon couldn't help it. She was missing Yoona dearly, wishing for a repeat of those wonderful memories that she had shared with her lover in the past. Something dropped into the pond, causing a small ripple in her reflection. Her eyes felt wet, her pressed lips quivering.

@AT_Taeyeon As Hyuna's laughter finally died down, she pushed herself off of the ground again, smiling back at Taeyeon. "I'm glad you take it as a compliment then." She smiled back, "It's not a bad thing to be funny." She shrugged, grinning at the angel before tilting her head curiously, "Has no one told you that before?" She found that somewhat hard to believe.

@HT_Hyuna Taeyeon blinked, just looking at the other girl before her laughing hysterically at her threat. She then pouted a little, her eyebrows creasing a little as she felt embarrassed and stupid for taking Hyuna's joke so seriously. But when the latter had looked at her and told her that she was funny, Taeyeon's pout turned upside down. "I'll take that as a compliment." The angel then smile toothily; happy that she had caused Hyuna to have a good, bawling laugh.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna laughed aloud, holding her stomach with both of her arms and falling onto her back. Taeyeon's reaction was just too funny for her to not laugh. "I-I was just joking!" She sputtered between laughs, rolling over and wiping tears out of her eyes. "Taeyeon," She gasped for air, wiggling around to look at the angel, "you are so funny." She had expected a funny reaction, but not the threat. Coming from Taeyeon, it just sounded so innocent that she couldn't help but laugh.

@HT_Hyuna Taeyeon chuckled at the other's cute pout and action of crossing her arms; looking like a fussing kid who had just been told that she couldn't have ice cream before dinner. "You're much too generous Hyuna, really. But I guess I'll accept your compliments since it is true that you don't know of the many other angels that have way better voice than me." She smiled humbly, but then dropped it and squealed when the other girl threatened to 'test' just how ticklish she was. Taeyeon scooted away from the girl just a bit, in case the latter was actually going to tickle her. "No~ Please don't." She said, shaking her head. "If you do, I'll push you into the pond!" The angel exclaimed.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna pouted, crossing her arms, "Who cares about other angels in heaven? I don't know them! I know you. And yours is still beautiful to me, so I say it's beautiful." She smiled slyly at Taeyeon's sudden reaction. "Ticklish, huh~?" She curled her fingers as if she was going to tickle Taeyeon on both sides. "Should we test just how ticklish you are~?"

@HT_Hyuna At Hyuna's exclaim that her voice was beautiful, Taeyeon's cheeks continued to stay fairly rosy. "No, it's true! My voice isn't beautiful compared to other angels in heaven. I'm just okay." She explained to the other girl. The angel girl lurched her body back abruptly when the latter poked her side. Taeyeon was very ticklish, and Hyuna's prod to her side had triggered ticklishness. "Don't poke me...I'm really ticklish." She giggled, raising her hand in defense.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna tilted her head in confusion at the explanation, not understanding how a wing could give Taeyeon her voice back. But she shrugged it off as an angel thing, more curious about Taeyeon's lover. At the angel's denial, Hyuna frowned and shook her head. "Yah! Your voice was beautiful! You underestimate yourself, Taeyeon~" Hyuna smiled and poked her side, "But you're welcome."

@HT_Hyuna "Just a little." Taeyeon replied, admitting that she had been startled by the latter's sudden appearance. At the question of when her voice came back, the angel girl smiled widely, looking out into the distant view across the pond. "My lover from heaven helped me get it back...She gave me her wing..." Taeyeon softly spoke. She then looked back down to the grassy earth and to her feet. "It's all thanks to her that I have my voice now..." She then looked back up at Hyuna, blushing sightly at her compliment on her voice. "B-Beautiful?...Nah, I don't think that's quite the word to describe it. But thank you."

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna grinned at Taeyeon, amused by her reaction. "I startled you? Sorry~" She looked curiously at Taeyeon, her feet swishing in the pond, "Neh, when did your voice come back?? It's beautiful~" She was incredibly curious to know how Taeyeon had gotten her voice back, but also happy for her, especially because Taeyeon seemed to enjoy singing.

@HT_Hyuna Hearing her name suddenly being called out, Taeyeon jerked herself up into a sit and whizzed around; scared. A slender figure slipped out from the shadows of the swaying curtain of leaves and branches of a willow tree, revealing a friendly face. It was Hyuna. Calming her racing heart as the girl sat down next to her, she smiled at the latter. Taeyeon could finally converse with the girl before her without a notepad and pen. "Hello, Hyuna." She happily greeted. The angel then eyed the basket of strawberries beside the girl and inferred that Hyuna must have been picking them around the garden, before she had came here.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna looked curiously at Taeyeon as she stopped singing, wondering who she was talking to. "Yoona?" She whispered aloud. The name was unfamiliar to her. Seeing Taeyeon's performance was over, she stepped out of the shadows and approached her slowly, calling out, "Taeyeon?" She sat next to the angel, putting her basket next to her and her feet in the water.

@HT_Hyuna The angel girl continued to sing, thinking she was alone in the garden. She saw a fallen daisy in the grass in front of her, and picking it up she twirled it between her fingers. Walking through the grass and up to the edge of the pond in the garden, she looked down at her own reflection in the water and began to put the white daisy flower with a golden center into her hair, like if it was a clip. Satisfied that it made a natural accessory, Taeyeon then sat down and laid down on her back and gazed at the cloudless, clear sky. "Can you hear me singing, Yoona-yah?...I hope you can...I've always wanted you to hear that song..." She softly spoke.

@AT_Taeyeon Hyuna Leander through the garden, picking strawberries to make crepes with Jessica later when she heard a voice. She smiled brightly at the beautiful sound, holding her basket of strawberries to her chest as she followed the voice to fins the source. She was surprised to see Taeyeon, her mute friend, singing in the garden. She stayed silent beneath the trees as she watched Taeyeon's happy expression.

@HT_Hyuna A few days had passed after getting her voice back. Her left wing was healed, replaced with a glorious wing that was a bit bigger than her right one; softer in the texture of feathers and whiter in color. It had been Yoona's wing; the royal angel from her past cutting if off and sacrificing it for her to have her voice back. As she walked through the path of the lush garden, enjoying the lovely scents of flowers all around her. The scents made her think of a particular song about roses and in a second, she was softly singing the melody that she remembered.
