okay im a bit conflicted on this chapter.
This whole story confuses me , aside from the younger girl loving the older woman .
I see it like this: Fah raised Sea from a young age. It's almost like she's her mother, but she's also repressed feelings for her for a long time as she's developed. Even now when she tries to act on those feelings, she sees the little girl she raised and feels conflicted. Min has known Fah's desires and Sea's desires for a while. Min, while in love with Fah, also understands Sea and Fah's mutual desire for each other.
So after Sea gets up the courage to confess her feelings to Fah, Fah recognizes she means "love" not as familial love but romantic, but acts like she doesn't. Sea's confession fresh in her mind and weighing on her heart, she gets drunk with Min and goes home. Disinhibited by the alcohol, she becomes sexually aggressive and takes Sea's virginity. When she sobers up enough to realize she took advantage of Sea's feelings and betrayed her own, she cries and leaves to seek solace in Min's arms.
Min obliges but understands the issue. While she's somewhat annoyed that Fah won't kiss her like she kissed Sea, she tries to make Fah reasonable. After hiding at Min's place for a few days, Fah and Min go back to Fah's apartment to find Sea sick with a cold. Sea is sleeptalking expressing her desire that she doesn't want Fah to hate her. I think this is because Sea doesn't want Fah to feel disgusted that the girl she raised is in love with her romantically. After being rejected by Fah after sex, Sea feels that Fah hates her. Min's provocation and Fah's examining of Sea's body covered in her hickeys causes her to hear the sleeptalking and her boundaries are beginning to fall.
Makes perfect sense to me.
