"Be good and wear it." Lisa held her shoulders, keeping her from taking off the coat, and turned to open the car boot.

Jennie looked as he hauled six bursts of fireworks from the car. They looked like cannons. Would they be as loud as one?

He fished out a lighter from his trouser pockets and lit the fuse quickly before running back to her and hugging her tightly. Jennie did not get to return the coat to him before the fireworks sounded six times consequently. They shot up into the sky in a row and exploded into dazzling blossoms.

It felt like it never ceased.

The fireworks seemed to be more magnificent than the ones she had seen before.

dazzling streams of light shone on both of them as the fireworks blossomed. Jennie's eyes brightened up as her gaze fixated on the fireworks. She was enveloped in Lisa's arms, and the loud explosive sounds became music to her ears.

They did not know how long the explosions went on, only that the blasts had seemed to continue for a long time.

The last firework was lit up, and orange flames shot up into the sky like shooting stars in reverse. They bloomed into dandelion-like images and slowly vanished into the night.

Jennie glanced towards Lisa and noticed his serious expression. It had, in turn, made Jennie nervous too.

"I think that we should discuss this issue seriously, unlike the past few times when I've just mentioned it in passing," Lisa said seriously.

Jennie was filled with doubt and surprise. She had no idea of anything that would put a frown on Lisa's face.

Lisa was only wearing a thin sweater, but he did not feel cold in the slightest, probably because he was consumed by nerves.

"Jennie, when I was in the Family Mansion, I saw So-hyun returned to his room with Suzy in his arms, and I thought of how nice it would be if you were with me. When I'm alone at home, lying on my bed, I always think of you at my side. Every morning when I wake up, I think of how amazing it would be if you're lying in my arms."

"When I woke up in your house that morning, the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was you. That felt absolutely amazing, to the extent that I think about that scene every day after that. When I look at my bed, I yearn for the wrinkles you'll make on my bedsheets. I want to see half of my closet filled with your clothes. I want to see your toothbrush and mug above the sink. I want to see your towel drying next to mine. I've brought in a dressing table into my bedroom, brand new, with nothing on it. I want to see all your makeup cluttering up that table."

"I want to see you leaving traces of your life and casually misplacing trinkets in every single corner of my home. I want my home to be the backdrop of your snapshots. I want to be able to discover things that you've misplaced somewhere with a passing glance no matter where I am."

"Jennie, I'm asking you seriously. Are you still hesitating? Will you be willing to move in with me?" Lisa was still embracing Jennie in his arms. Although he could not afford to be affected by the cold, he shivered exaggeratingly, utilizing the advantageous cold weather to put up a show.

He considered hamming it up out in the cold if Jennie still did not give her consent. If she did not agree, he would suffer in the cold instead of going indoors.

Jennie was visibly struggling. She wanted to say yes, but she was contemplating something or other.

Jennie grasped the hem of his jacket and put her forehead on his chest. "I won't refuse if we are to live together; I also want to experience everything you've said earlier. The longer I'm with you, the less willing I am to separate with you. But Rosé and I rented our house together and the lease will only expire in seven months. Barring the rent, I'll feel bad if I left Rosé alone and moved in with you."
