She used the key card he had given her to open the door.

Gaeul looked down at the key that she didn’t know she would be using so soon.

The key, given with his affection as a symbol of being a couple, made Gaeul stare at it longer than she thought.

Putting the key in her handbag, Gaeul went to the sofa and rolled her feet in excitement. It was difficult to stay still because she hadn’t seen him in a while.

Beep.

When she heard the sound of the unlocked door after a while, Gaeul stood up.

His face, seen after two days, appeared straight away as he pushed the door open.

Immediately upon entering, Kita, who focused his gaze on Gaeul, spoke first.

“What were you doing?”

“Just… I was sitting, waiting for the chairman.”

While standing at the entrance and staring at Gaeul for a moment, he soon smiled and entered the apartment.

“Wait a moment. I’ll shower and come back.”

“Sure…”

Sitting on the sofa and waiting for a moment, Gaeul heard the sound of the door being unlocked shortly afterward.

Gaeul stood up in anticipation.

It was the face of Kita, who looked at Gaeul for a moment at the entrance and then burst into laughter.

“Yoon Gaeul. You look like you’re in love.”

Even though it was just a text message with no face visible, Gaeul, who had the most beautiful smile, quickly replied.
Sipping wine, Gaeul glanced at Kitae’s profile. As she did, she began to casually share the mundane things she had wanted to say for a while.

“Me. I want to go on a date to a place like the botanical garden we went to last time.”

“Let’s go.”

“I liked holding hands and walking back then…”

As the alcohol entered, laughter flowed once again. Being with someone you like seemed to enhance the good mood.

“Really?”

Unlike last time, when Gaeul subtly leaned on him while watching his reactions, she gently rested her head on his shoulder and looked up at him.

When she looked up with wide eyes, Kitae chuckled as if finding her cute. As if suggesting to lean more comfortably, he wrapped his hand around her head. His big hand, which still had a warm temperature, felt pleasant.

As Gaeul was talking, he urged her for an answer.

“What else do you want to do?”

“I want to travel together. Oh, that might be impossible because you’re busy, right?”

“No, I can go.”

As the glass was empty, he refilled it. Gaeul sipped the wine eagerly.

Tock, tock, scratching the heated cheek while answering, Kitae, who responded well, made Gaeul smile warmly. Every time she said it was possible, various plans automatically unfolded. They just kept coming up as she listed them.

Hehe, smiling with a slightly elevated mood, Gaeul’s cheeks, flushed with a rosy glow, were adorable.

Kitae, who had been gazing at Gaeul intently, lifted her head with his hand. Gaeul’s gaze shifted to Kitae with her head suddenly lifted.

The gaze that had reached the eyes gradually descended, skimmed Gaeul’s lips, and then, he lowered his head, covering her lips that had parted.

Suddenly touched lips made Gaeul widen her eyes. Looking up, Kitae raised the corner of his mouth and asked.

“Yoon Gaeul. Did you say you couldn’t go home today?”

“… Yes.”

Pointing to the room with the bed with a nod, he asked again.

“Do you want to go?”
