Tuesday evening at 7 o’clock. Bongki’s heart didn’t settle down throughout the drive. Whenever the signal stopped, his eyes were glued to the rearview mirror. The face of the man in the back seat.
Jiho, who had intentionally dressed up in a black suit, evoked admiration.
“I can’t believe it. Handsome, so handsome… there’s no end to it, right?”
Even though he tried to suppress the corners of his mouth from lifting, once he regained his composure, he found himself smiling widely. If Jiho were to make an acceptance speech with that face, albeit a few days late, it would have been the best Christmas present.
Jiho occasionally received the stylist’s touch as he looked out the window. Unlike Bongki, who was eagerly anticipating the best Christmas gift, Jiho, who had already received the gift, was reminiscing about the happiness once again.
Three days ago, Christmas was almost identical to the previous fairy tale. A bit different, a bit better.
The memory of that day began with a startle as if awakening from a deep sleep. The voice calling him was so soft, yet unreasonably close. He had to press his lips to his ear and whisper.
“Jiho, let’s eat.”
“Wow, you startled me…”
“Hehe. You have to get up.”

In an instant, Hyeyoon, now sitting at the head of the bed, appeared before his eyes. With a teasing smile, she reached out and tidied his hair.
She seemed to know as much as Jiho did. She knew where and how to be especially sensitive when handling the other person. Her mischievous expression, seemingly enjoying whispers, was quite pleasant. It was better that way. Making things sensitive meant they would handle it together.
When they roughly washed up and opened the door, he was even more surprised. It was because of the delicious smell that filled the house. As he entered the dining room, neatly arranged dishes on the table caught his eye. White rice, soybean paste stew, grilled fish, kimchi, and several other side dishes.
And the most touching thing was, of course, the gaze of the woman standing next to the dining table.
“When did you do all this?”
“Early in the morning.”
“You probably didn’t get any sleep. You didn’t have to go to such lengths. I won’t be picky about the food.”
“No, no. Besides that…”
“Yeah?”
His face, full of anticipation, remained vivid even until now, several days later. The cheerful energy that exuded from his entire body, shouting, ‘Hurry up and like it!’ was also notable.

“I was really moved.”
“So? Are you happy?”
“What do you think? I’m so happy…”
It seemed like he wanted to hear those words. As soon as he finished speaking, Hyeyoon, excitedly, began to pull out the chair. Her face showed an expression of having everything in the world even before asking how it tasted.
After hearing the words, ‘Let’s eat together quickly,’ he briefly lifted the utensils, but if you looked a little later, he was only glancing at my face. It seemed like he was curious about whether I really enjoyed the meal.
“Stop staring and eat quickly.”
“Yeah.”
He only answered well. Two minutes later, he was sneaking glances again. Furtively. Whenever our eyes met, he pretended not to see, poking his nose into the rice bowl.
Where did he learn such a cute trick?
Of course, it wasn’t all laughter throughout the day. After having a meal, when we watched a movie, I felt a slight anger. More precisely, it was jealousy. It was because the movie Hyeyoon chose to watch was Cha Dohyeok’s new movie that started showing from the day before.
His unexpected choice made my heart boil.

“Really, on that day… what were you two doing?”
“Hehe. We have to keep our promises. We promised to watch this movie no matter what.”
“…We promised?”
For a moment, the tip of my tongue pressed against one cheek. It felt like blood vessels were popping on my forehead. There was a heated anger in the questioning tone.
Thinking it was a joke, Hyeyoon looked at my face amusingly. While doing so, there were sparkling stars in her eyes. Despite looking at the sofa with a gesture of tapping, her small body was emitting new energy.
“Hurry, hurry, you have to hug me!”
Just like that, without any haste, I provided a pillow and watched the movie. Like Hyeyoon during breakfast, this time, too, I only focused on Hyeyoon’s face, not the movie. I wanted to know what emotions she had while watching the movie. Just like Jiho noticed Hyeyoon during breakfast, too, though easily.
“Hey, aren’t we going to watch a movie, Jiho?”
“Not watching. I’m watching it well. It’s the movie some other guy chose… my girlfriend.”
As he said that, Hyeyoon in his arms turned around and met eyes with him. The eyes trying to figure out if something was wrong were somewhat confused. Then, she smiled slyly, extending her lips just like yesterday.

Should I pass this off as a cute gesture? With a resentful heart, when he looked sideways, she also wrinkled her nose, creating small wrinkles. With a bit more strength, her lips were widely extended.
