Wearing even pajamas neatly, she opened the bathroom door, and strangely, it was eerily quiet.
It felt strangely like the first time, and unknowingly, Soo felt tense.
Traveling together and staying at a hotel was a completely different feeling than being together at home.
Approaching the bedroom step by step, Jiho was sitting on a chair.
“Did you finish showering?”
Jiho turned around and asked.
“Yeah. I thought you were asleep because it was quiet.”
“While you’re showering, do you think I could fall asleep?”
Jiho’s hair, spread over his forehead, gave him a boyish feeling as he chuckled.
She initially thought he looked refreshing but changed her mind when she saw the collarbone visible through the gap in the shower gown.

Soo’s gaze wandered aimlessly for a moment before settling on the table.
Two glasses of champagne were placed on the table.
“What’s this?”
“The welcome drink from earlier.”
“Oh.”
When they first entered the room, there was a bottle of champagne and some fruit prepared along with a welcome card.
“Let’s have a glass before bed.”
Soo raised the glass, offering Jiho a sip of the fragrant champagne.
The crisp, tingling taste was refreshing.
“Tastes good.”

“You must be very tired today.”
“Yeah, very, very.”
She could hardly sleep, and her stiff eyes wouldn’t open properly.
She thought she could take a short nap on the train from London to Paris, but she couldn’t sleep because she was too excited.
Throughout the journey, she spent time with Jiho, joking and laughing at trivial stories.
After arriving in Paris, they left their luggage at the hotel, had lunch, endured the heat to visit the Eiffel Tower until late afternoon, and strolled around the Seine River before having a late dinner.
Because of the excitement on the first day of the trip, she didn’t feel tired and filled the day to the brim.
Soo, who had emptied the remaining champagne into her mouth, stood up from her seat.
With a slightly clumsy posture, she placed her knees on the bed, and Jiho, who approached from behind, lifted Soo up in his arms.
“Oh, what’s this?”

Soo’s body floated in the air and then was embraced by Jiho.
“Just lying down won’t do. Your hair needs to be dried.”
Jiho’s hair dryer was still on the shelf where he had just used it.
Sitting on the chair at the dressing table, Jiho firmly supported Soo’s back with his large hand, and leaning her face on his shoulder.
Tuck.
Soo, who had her arm around Jiho’s neck, sobbed and lowered her head.
Soo relaxed all her strength, trusting Jiho to take care of everything.
With his hand behind Soo’s back and knees, Jiho hugged her tightly and moved toward the dressing table.
The hairdryer Jiho had just used was still placed on the shelf.
Seated on the chair at the dressing table, Jiho firmly supported Soo’s back with his large hand, and leaning her face on his shoulder.

Tuck.
Soo, who had her arm around Jiho’s neck, sobbed and lowered her head.
Soo relaxed all her strength, trusting Jiho to take care of everything.
Seated on Jiho’s thigh was pleasant, as well as leaning against his shoulder.
Quietly closing her eyes, a warm breeze whispered through her hair, making a rustling sound.
Wet strands of hair fluttered in all directions, spreading the pleasant scent of shampoo.
As Soo hung onto Jiho, Jiho’s hand, which had been supporting her back, gently swept through Soo’s hair, allowing the wind to circulate evenly.
Except for the noisy sound of the hairdryer, it felt like she could fall asleep right there.
It didn’t take long to dry her short, bobbed hair, revealing the nape of her neck.
Still, thinking it must have been tiring to dry it thoroughly, Soo kissed Jiho’s cheek and whispered softly, “Thank you.”
With the hand that put down the hairdryer, Jiho embraced Soo and stood up.

Their bodies, which had risen high into the air, now lay gently on the warm bed.
Side by side on the same bed, they covered themselves with the same blanket up to their chests.
“Now we can finally sleep. I’m so sleepy.”
“Yeah, let’s sleep.”
Jiho gently patted Soo’s back slowly.
Lying on the plush bed, covered with a warm blanket, Soo relaxed in Jiho’s fragrant embrace.
It was a moment when Soo thought it couldn’t get any better.
As Soo, lying down with Jiho’s arm over her, moved her body against his firm chest.
Through her half-closed eyelids, she felt his warm breath.
When Soo opened her eyes, Jiho was so close that she could feel his breath on the tip of her nose.

“I tried to endure it for real…”
Jiho’s eyes with a hint of desire looked down at Soo.
Feeling sleepy and not knowing what to do, Soo smiled languidly at Jiho.
‘How can I sleep with him looking at me like this…’
Thinking of the care Jiho took in drying her hair, Soo opened her eyes with all her strength.
“I really tried to sleep too…”
A snicker and laughter erupted simultaneously.
“I just can’t do it.”
Jiho’s words coincided with Soo’s.
Looking at Soo, who laughed with a tired smile, Jiho gazed at her lovingly.
