“You know it. There’s only one thing that drives me crazy.”

“Again, you’re shaking. Is it a habit?”

So-yeon, who couldn’t pretend not to know that ‘one thing’ was him, blushed, organized the clothes she had taken off, and got up from the bed.

“You’re really kind. I can’t put on pajamas, so I’ll cover you with a blanket. Sleep well.”

“Kkuk, look at this woman. I came to see you, but where are you going.”

“Oh, uh…!”

As So-yeon tried to move away from the bed, Seo-jun suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

“Why are you really like this?”

So-yeon, leaning over Seo-jun’s chest, protested in a small voice.

“We’re going to sleep together, why.”

“Mom might come up in the morning.”

“So what?”

“What if you regret it after sobering up.”

“I regretted it a long time ago…….?”

“What?”

“How much I regretted it every time I thought of you. I should have stayed awake on the day we first met, even if I had to force myself, I should have kept you by my side even if you left for Cadiz with a painful body, and…”

This man also babbled when he was drunk.

“Uh, let’s just go to sleep. I’ll sleep in the next room.”
“Go ahead and try. I’ll follow you.”

Seo-jun’s laughter, with twinkling black eyes, became clearer than before. Although it seemed like he was heavily intoxicated, it was just an act. Seo-jun used his long arms to tightly embrace So-yeon, leaving her unable to move.

“Don’t go anywhere.”

“Do I mean that much to you?”

Seo-jun, hugging her petite body, laughed playfully like a mischievous boy.

“So-yeon…”

“Why?”

The locked voice was so enchanting that So-yeon’s mood became bewildered as she gazed deeply into his eyes.

“Let’s date.”

“….!”

Slightly parted lips, surprised and flustered.

So-yeon, who was thrilled by Seo-jun’s words, couldn’t even move an eyebrow. The passionate kiss continued as if it would last forever. Seo-jun, entwining their legs and intertwining his fingers between hers, held So-yeon tightly, looking down at her with a tender smile.

“No one else could have looked.”

“…?”

Wondering what he was talking about, So-yeon focused on Seo-jun’s face, which was very close, with eyes shimmering with a blink.

“I, too, felt a shock when I first found you. I couldn’t take my eyes off you, and you were the only one I saw. It was love at first sight.”

“Are you confessing now? Because you’re drunk?”

Laughing at the cheerful voice of the reply, Seo-jun touched So-yeon’s nose lightly with his fingertip, tilting his head.

“No…”

It wasn’t because he was drunk.

My feelings for Eom So-yeon are too big. The more I hold you, the more my desire grows. At this moment, the feeling was too overwhelming not to express it.

“You were so beautiful back then. Your sparkling eyes and dazzling figure. I couldn’t remember what I had done just before, who I had broken up with, or why I had entered that bar at that moment; it was so easily forgotten……. ”

Even my actions, approaching you with impure intentions, were pure love, compromising and making excuses…….

The day Seo-jun first met Eom So-yeon. Remembering the emotions of that day, Seo-jun, embracing her transparent skin that felt precious the more he saw it, focused his gaze on my lips.

Even now, during our separation, Eom So-yeon always stayed within me.

She never stayed still, gently and sometimes energetically, hopping around in my head and chest. To the rhythm of that beat, my heart continued to beat without rest.

A warm and comfortable place.

A place of extreme happiness and overwhelming joy.

A place that was so perfect, it could only exist in the imagination; an incredibly cozy and beautiful world.

That was you.

“So-yeon, I…….”

It seems I loved you a lot…….

From the moment I first saw you…….

Incredibly, to the point where it was difficult to accept it easily…….

The intense gaze that deeply observed So-yeon gradually relaxed and softened. And with a kiss that contained all those feelings, he gently melted into So-yeon’s lips.

However, Seo-jun had become unresponsive in that state without realizing it.

“….!”
“Oh my goodness! Did you fall asleep while kissing?”

So-yeon, with her eyebrows raised in the center, was stunned. Then, she burst into a small laugh, saying, “Cook.”

If only she hadn’t been tormented by her father with alcohol. And yet, she came across to this room, captivating me like never before, with a more enchanting appearance and voice. How many times did she embrace me like that? It must have been superhuman mental strength.

So-yeon, gently laying Seo-jun next to her, took the next step, gazing at Seo-jun’s face, which was as handsome as a picture, as if engraving it in her eyes.

Now, he was mine.

Now, no matter what anyone said, he was my child’s father, my man.

With her chin resting on Seo-jun’s chest, So-yeon, who had briefly fallen asleep, chased away a light sleep and headed for the bathroom as the dawn was about to break.
