A Decade of Lost Time and Lingering Memories
The night you shared was never meant to be more than a fleeting connection. But even as you both drifted apart, the memory of that night and the feelings you couldn't shake lingered in the corners of your...
Seungcheol stretched with a quiet groan, blinking his eyes open as golden sunlight filtered through the blossoms above. The first thing he saw was you—your soft smile glowing like morning light, fingers gently combing through his hair.
“Hey, sleepyhead,” you whispered.
“Did I fall asleep?” he mumbled, voice rough from the nap.
“Mhm… for an hour and a half.”
He yawned, stretching his limbs. “No wonder I feel so good… must be because I was on your lap.”
You laughed, amused by his innocent grin.
Suddenly, Seungcheol sat upright and glanced at his phone. “Oh! Perfect timing!” He sprang to his feet, full of energy, and offered his hand to you. “Come on, love, let’s go!”
You blinked in surprise but took his hand. “Where now?” you asked, closing the book you’d been flipping through.
He led you to the car parked just beyond the trees. From the back seat, he pulled out a small garment bag, tied with a silk ribbon, and handed it to you with a mysterious grin. “Here. Wear this. And get ready, sugar.”
Your brows lifted. “Ooh, something fancy?” You peeked inside, eyes widening at the elegant dress folded within. “Hm… alright.”
You gave a dramatic shrug, grinning as you sauntered off toward the nearby villa. Inside, you dressed, dusted your cheeks with a soft blush, added a subtle shimmer to your eyes, and spritzed your favorite perfume. Just as you were smoothing the last curl of your hair, Seungcheol stepped inside.
His eyes widened the moment he saw you.
“Woah…” he exhaled, frozen in place for a second. “You look... breathtaking.”
You spun playfully. “You like it?”
“I love it,” he said, walking up to you slowly, almost as if spellbound. “I’m so glad I picked that one.”
He offered his arm, his eyes gleaming with excitement. “Ready for the next part of our day, my queen?”
Your smile turned mischievous as you linked your arm through his. “Lead the way, my king.”

5:30 p.m.
Both of you pulled up at the edge of the seaport, the salty breeze immediately tousling your hair and tugging at your dress like an excited friend. Seungcheol stepped out first, circling the car to open the door for you like a true gentleman. You took his hand, heels clicking softly against the dock as you stepped out.
