My cheeks flushed as I looked at the older woman. I was picking her up from her home after leaving Alex with Yuna and Ryujin. Yeji had just opened the door, her face lit up as she saw me. My heart couldn't handle it. She was just too adorable...

Today, we had a date...

A few weeks had passed since I asked Yeji out on a date, but her schedule had been a mess as usual. Plus, Alex fell ill when we initially planned the date. We both spent the entire night tending to him, which made him a bit more expressive as he dealt with his feelings due to his fever.

But now was the day of our long-awaited date.

"Hey," I said with a smile, which made Yeji smile back. Her hands wrapped around mine as she looked straight into my eyes. My heart couldn't handle this. She was just too sweet.

"I know it's just the beginning of our first date... but I can't help it," she whispered with a smile on her face. She was inching closer to me.

I exhaled happily. I moved closer too, connecting our lips. The kiss was gentle, almost timid. Filled with emotions - the sorrow and regret of being apart for five years, the joy and happiness of finding each other again. And yet, the kiss felt both nostalgic and new.

After a while, we pulled away. Slowly, I opened my eyes. I smirked a bit as I looked into Yeji's face. Yeji also smiled and chuckled.

"Shall we go?" I asked with a broad smile. Yeji's eyes sparkled so beautifully, and it was driving me crazy. My heart couldn't take it. The older woman nodded and grabbed my hand, intertwining our fingers. She nodded again, "We can," she replied.

I led Yeji to my car and opened her door. She looked at me, a light shade of red spreading across her cheeks. I chuckled and waited patiently for her to get in. Unfortunately, I was too late. Yeji had already opened the door and was in the process of getting out. She stared at me for a while. She chuckled softly, got back in, and closed the door.

I smiled broadly and opened the door for her. Yeji chuckled softly again and got out. She looked at me. God... I loved the way she looked at me.

"Thank you," she whispered, placing a kiss on my cheek. I blushed wildly almost immediately. Together, we entered the building. Yeji's eyes widened, "An escape room?" she asked, a wide grin forming on her face.

I smirked knowingly and nodded my head. It didn't take long for an employee to come over and explain everything to us. Shortly after, he told the backstory of the room and allowed us to enter. Now, we were both inside this locked room.

"Okay. Let's start by searching everything," I said, and immediately we split up in the room. Every time we found something suspicious or a lock of some sort, we mentioned it.

We had 60 minutes, and we spent every single second thinking. In between, we flirted with each other, but I really wanted to finish this room.

I narrowed my eyes automatically as I had to laugh. Yeji and Alex were playing with a ball in the garden. Alex and I moved in with Yeji. I had thought about it a lot. Yeji had to clarify if it would be okay with Alex first. After all, he would be facing most of the changes.

But it seemed to be going well. We finally seemed to be a family. My heart sped up as I heard Alex laughing loudly. He had just thrown the ball onto Yeji's shoulder, forgetting about the ball. My eyes were fixed on the two. In my hand was a glass of wine.

My phone lit up as I took a sip from my glass. I grabbed my phone and unlocked it. My heart raced as I saw an article. Yeji seemed to have received it too. My eyes widened as I read the headline of the article. A dating article. Apparently, Yeji and I had been on multiple dates. Now, pictures were released of us holding hands and looking at each other. Thankfully, we made sure not to kiss in public. It only happened in the cinema so far.
