Two years later

After Jeongyeon graduated in college, they immediately planned their wedding. They didn't go on the typical fancy wedding, rather a simple one. Simple exchanging of vows, wear each other's wedding rings, and of course to finish the ceremony, their first kiss as a married couple.

Their friends came in pairs: Momo and Dahyun, Chaeyoung and Mina, Sana and Tzuyu, and Jihyo and Sejeong. They wore different styles of pastel blue dresses to match the theme.

Jin also came, wearing his full pastel blue suit, to congratulate the couple. Dahyun even teased him that he looked like he's the one getting married instead of Nayeon, only to earn a smack on the shoulder from her girlfriend.

Mr. Yoo and Mrs. Im were both teary-eyed as they witnessed both of their daughters exchanging vows on the altar. Mrs. Im wore a simple long sleeved pastel blue dress while Mr. Yoo wore his black suit with pastel blue necktie.

And of course, the newlyweds. As Nayeon said when they did a wedding photoshoot back then, when Jeongyeon and her marry each other one day, they'll be wearing matching dresses. And they did.

Nayeon and Jeongyeon wore an off the shoulder wedding dresses with big white ribbons tied in the back of their waists and translucent white gloves. They also had similar flower bouquets and their hairs were tied in a low bun with flower crowns attached to their veils.

Who would've thought such a day will come?

Jeongyeon looked at the most beautiful girl she ever met, waiting for her at the altar. She couldn't believe that this day would really come; that she would marry Nayeon. Jeongyeon couldn't help but tear up, remembering what they went through throughout the years they were together.

Nayeon couldn't help but tear up as she saw Jeongyeon marching down the aisle looking at her with happy tears. She giggled when Mr. Yoo had to stop walking and handed her his handkerchief to wipe her tears. Mrs. Im, on the other hand, was beside Nayeon, bawling her eyes more than the couple getting married.

Their friends were also proud and happy for them. No matter what hardships came to their relationship, destiny would always find a way to fix it.

All of the guests could only think of one thing after recalling the happenings these past years between the couple: Nayeon and Jeongyeon are destined to be together.

"Ah~ today went by so fast!" Nayeon beamed as she slammed the door open, which startled Jeongyeon from her desk.

They were at a hotel for their honeymoon after the ceremony. Jeongyeon was at the desk, writing something on the familiar crumpled notebook. It was Nayeon's silly guidebook she had found on Nayeon's bookshelf days after she returned to their home. She also found the letter she left before she left, but without Nayeon knowing, she threw it away, as if she threw a bad memory.

Jeongyeon kept the crumpled guidebook, and since it still has many pages left, she made it as her diary. A diary to write her feelings during her time with Nayeon after the older girl's proposal. She wrote on it for the past two years until today, the day she and Nayeon got married.

"Earlier I was nervous and excited, but now I'm fucking exhausted!" Nayeon whined as she plopped herself down on the bed, spreading her arms and legs like lazy starfish as she smiled and closed her eyes, recalling the events happened today. Nayeon noticed Jeongyeon busy with something on the desk. She sat up and stared at the younger girl's back. What the fuck? Jeongyeon's still working after our wedding? I- I thought... "Hey, Jeongyeon-ah, what are you up to?"

"I wanted to write something about today, but I can't seem to find the right words." Jeongyeon said as she twirled the pen around her fingers. It's true though. Jeongyeon was still overwhelmed by the fact that they were finally married. That they were now tied up with each other. That Nayeon married her.
