With her spirits lifted, Tae Yeon headed towards the cashier.
Watching her, an unaware faint smile crept up on Do Jun’s face.

On Tae Yeon’s birthday.
Tae Yeon, who had been reading a book after getting up early, was startled by the sudden ring of the doorbell and came out to the living room.
The doorbell, which had been ringing, was now quiet, possibly because Do Jun had opened the door.
“Who is it?”
Tae Yeon headed towards the entrance. What caught her eye was a huge flower basket and a cake held in Do Jun’s hand.
“No, this is…”
Do Jun casually walked in and placed the flower basket on the dining table.
“It’s a gift.”
“Ah.”
He was one of the few people who knew that today was her birthday.
“I have never celebrated someone’s birthday before.”
Do Jun then placed the cake on the table as well.

Tae Yeon’s eyes widened even more at the sight of the cake taken out of the box. It was a cake with a caricature that looked like her.
“Wow.”
Tae Yeon stared at the cake as if she was fascinated.
“Did Do Jun prepare this?”
“I did get some help from Secretary Choi. Originally, I wanted to give you a photo cake with your face printed on it.”
“I see.”
“I couldn’t do it because I don’t have a picture of Jin Tae Yeon.”
Reflecting Tae Yeon’s personality, there was not a single profile picture in the common messenger app. They hadn’t taken any pictures while dating.
The only picture of Tae Yeon that Do Jun had was an unidentified paparazzi photo.
He couldn’t possibly use that photo, so he replaced it with a caricature cake.
Tae Yeon stared at the cake without taking her eyes off it, and she grinned.
“The cake is really cute. Thank you.”
Tae Yeon’s brown eyes were sparkling.
She had never thought she would be able to receive a celebration like this, knowing that Do Jun knew her birthday.
It was a show window couple that didn’t need to be celebrated.
After receiving the gift she bought while shopping yesterday, receiving a cake felt like a dream.

“You should sit down so we can blow out the candles.”
At Do Jun’s gesture, Tae Yeon sat down at the table. Do Jun stuck a number candle and lit it. Then, with an indifferent face, he casually dropped a sentence.
“Shall we sing together?”
“Pardon?”
The image of him singing a birthday song with that stoic face made her laugh first.
Tae Yeon bit her lip to hold back her laughter. Do Jun saw this and asked.
“Why are you laughing?”
“No, I was imagining Do Jun singing.”
Do Jun made a face as if he couldn’t understand why that was funny, and then he started to sing.
His sweet voice echoed throughout the house.
She did think that there was nothing he couldn’t do, but this man was even perfect at singing.
Tae Yeon, too, clapped her hands in surprise and followed along to sing her own birthday song.
After the song ended, Do Jun scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment and pointed at the candles with his chin.
“Make a wish and blow out the candle.”
Tae Yeon tightly closed her eyes and clasped her hands.
‘Please let the marriage life end without any problem.’
And then Tae Yeon blew out the candle. Because of her breath, Do Jun’s fringe, who was sitting in front of her, fluttered slightly.

Do Jun took out the candles and handed her a knife to cut the cake. Tae Yeon took the knife and suddenly stood up.
“Where are you going?”
“May I take a picture of this?”
Do Jun nodded his head and crossed his arms.
Tae Yeon quickly stood up and grabbed her cell phone. Then, she clicked away at the cake and flower bouquet that Do Jun had given her.
After taking pictures for a while, Tae Yeon looked at Do Jun listlessly.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“I will take one for you too, Do Jun.”
Do Jun refused, shaking his hand.
“I’m good.”
“It’s just that the current spot, the picture comes out really good.”
“I’m good. I don’t really like being photographed.”
Holding her cell phone, Tae Yeon hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.
“Do Jun, then shall we take it together?”
“What did you say?”
“I was thinking about taking a picture together and sending it to the chairman.”
Do Jun, who had been refusing with a hand gesture, made a face of interest as if he had read Tae Yeon’s thoughts.
“Are you saying we should show that our relationship as a couple is good enough to remember my wife’s birthday?”
“That’s right. To look as friendly as possible in the picture……”
Before Tae Yeon’s words were finished, Do Jun rose from his seat.
And he came and sat next to her, getting his face close to hers.
It was a too impulsive move for someone who claimed to dislike having his picture taken.
Startled, Do Jun urged the still Tae Yeon.
“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to take the picture?”
“Oh, I have to.”
Due to Do Jun getting closer than expected, Tae Yeon backed off to the side.
Do Jun gave a small laugh and then moved as far as Tae Yeon had moved away.
“Why are you running away when we are trying to look close?”
“……”
“Anyone would think that I suggested taking the picture.”
At his words, Tae Yeon awkwardly smiled in embarrassment.
Thinking that she should quickly take the picture and get up from her seat, Tae Yeon raised her cell phone camera.
Even on the day they took wedding photos for the press release, the two did not keep any photos for personal collection. There was no need to.
So, this was the first selfie the two were taking together.
The awkwardness was clearly evident. Looking at the result, Do Jun frowned a little as if something was not to his liking.
“If we send this picture to the chairman, it seems like it would rather have the opposite effect.”
