"Hey, I'll be back soon," I slide on a mask, covering my face.
"Where are you going?" Changgu comes into the entryway. 
"I'm going to meet up with a friend," I smile behind my mask, hoping he'd believe it. 
"Alright, just be back before midnight, Yanan is doing an exam on you tomorrow morning. I overheard him planning it out," he nods in the direction of Yanan's office. 
"Alright," I smirk under my mask, sneakily closing the door behind me. A blue car, a 2019 Honda Civic Type R, sits just a few meters away from out driveway. Does Geonhak think he can't be seen?

I walk up to the car, gently tapping on the window, causing Geonhak to look at it. His face, a stern look, softened when he saw me. He unlocks the door, allowing me to climb in.
"Hey, Maya," he cocks his head to look at me.
"Hey!" I smile. "So, what are we doing for our date?"
"How do you feel about ice skating?"
"Oh really?" I beam brightly.
"And then dinner at this place I know," he smiles, sighing contently.
"Sounds great," I gently caress his arm, then grab his hand. He freezes, looks at our hands, then unfreezes, smiling gently.

"Alright, so tell me more about yourself, like how did you get that small scar on the side of your head?" Geonhak smiles, taking a sip of his cantaloupe milk tea. 
"Alright, so when I was like 5 or 6, I had been at the clumsiest point of my life. I still am, but at this age, I was even clumsier. I was walking and spun around to head back to my room, since I forgot my favorite toy. I, in turn, ran into the wall and had to get 10 stitches. It was small but deep, leaving the scar," I laugh gently, looking down at my passion fruit bubble tea.
"Ah, so you're clumsy," he snorts. "I knew you were too perfect to be true."
"Well, there is one thing about me that you have to know."
"What's wrong?"
"I am actually pregnant," I sigh. "I had a drunken one night stand and ended up pregnant."
"Oh," his eyes go wide. "Is the father planning to be involved?"
"The thing about that is my baby's father is Hongseok," I bite the inside of my cheeks.
"Oh, wow. And you're both planning to raise the baby?" He cocks an eyebrow up.
"Yep. If that comes off as too much for you, I understand. I still haven't even comprehended it completely," I look down from his face. His warm hand reaches across the small table, lifting my head to look at him.
"Hey, it'll be alright. I'm willing to make it work as long as you are," he shows a sign of adoration in his face.
"You're sure about this?" I ask him. 
"Absolutely," he smiles, eyes flickering between my eyes and lips. I sigh, smiling, pulling him closer, and closing the distance between us. His lips tasted of cherry lip balm, the warmth against my own being the only thing I felt. Sparks were flying, giving a little tension to the kiss, even though our lips moved in sync. I pull away first, Geonhak's face and ears a light pink. We make eye contact, causing us to chuckle a little. 
"Well, this just brought us to another level, hasn't it?" Geonghak asks, lightly touching my hand.
"I think," I grab his hand officially. "Everything will be alright for us." 
"Then, will you be my girlfriend?" Geonhak smiles, delicately playing with my fingers. 
"Maybe," I smile. "I'm kidding, yes, I will."
"Good," he gives me a gummy smile.
