"you don't have to apologize. maybe he and i were never meant to be together. "
i said as he just nodded, agreeing to my statement.

"mr kim, i wanted to keep one more thing between us. " i spoke up, breaking the humdrum and otiose silence, which was lingering between us.

"yes? "

"even after breaking up with him, i wouldn't like to be in a relationship with you. i need some time after doing this sin. " i stated.

"i respect your decision. " he smiled slightly, which somehow soothed my disturbed soul.

"i take my leave now. " with that i bowed to him as he did the same and i walked out to my house.

as i opened the door, i heard someone's footsteps getting nearer to me, which i assumed to be my boyfriend's.

"thank god! you're here. i thought you won't come early today. " the enthusiasm was boosting up in his body, his smile was enough for me to know how happy he was?!

"wear this and get ready. i'll be waiting for you here. " he handed me a dress as i left him, sitting in the drawing hall and went to the bedroom to change.

as i glanced at the dress, i realised how beautifully it had been made. the shade of blue on the soft fabric with a tint of black was making it even more intriguing.

i looked beautiful in the dress, it was a perfect date dress one could ever ask for. checking myself up for one last time in the mirror, i walked out.

"you look perfectly beautiful! " he complimented, making me smile in joy.

"after all, it's your choice." i said as he smiled proudly. "and, you look handsome too. " i stated the fact as his face turned red.

"let's go? " he asked, changing the topic of our conversation, which didn't go unnoticed by me, but i didn't asked him the reason and nodded.

"today is going to be the best date ever." he said as he started the car.

"hope so... " i muttered.
