ENJOY!!!

Tae And Jisoo(her best friend) were in Tae's room as she came for sleepover in her house.. They both were watching some K-dramas.. Actually Jisoo was just
watching that while Tae was lost in her thought..

She couldn't shake off the memory of the temple scene, where her dupatta had gotten stuck, and the strange sensation that had fluttered in her stomach when her hands touched...his. Whose hands were they, anyway? She hadn't even caught a glimpse of his face, yet her thoughts kept drifting back to that enigmatic encounter. 'Why can't I stop thinking about this?' Tae wondered, her mind racing with questions.

Lost in thought, a soft, dreamy smile spread across Tae's face as she reminisced about the mysterious encounter. Jisoo tried to get her attention, but Tae was too absorbed in her thoughts to respond. Jisoo raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Tae's far-off expression, and playfully shouted in her ear, making Tae jump in surprise. 'Oh my gosh, you scared me!' Tae exclaimed, her hand flying to her heart, still feeling the flutter from the sudden shock.

Jisoo teased, "Ha! I scared you, or did I interrupt your daydream?" She wiggled her eyebrows, making Tae giggle.

Jisoo's expression turned curious, "So, who was that boy?" Tae's eyes widened in surprise, and she gazed at Jisoo, who was calmly staring back at her. Tae opened her mouth to respond, but Jisoo cut her off, starting to speak again.

Jisoo said with a playful sternness, "Come on, babe, don't make me ask twice! I know you too well, we've been besties since diapers! Spill the beans!"

Tae couldn't help but chuckle at Jisoo's persistence and finally shared the temple scene with her. Jisoo's eyes widened in excitement, "Oh my gosh, how romantic and filmy!" She started to daydream about the scene, but Tae quickly smacked her forehead, bringing her back to reality.

Jisoo chuckled and asked, "By the way, you never told me what your ideal life partner is like?" Tae's face lit up with a smile as she snuggled up with her pillow, hugging it tightly.

"I want someone who will respect me, my family, and our values," Tae began, her words flowing effortlessly. "He should be shy, but mature and romantic, with a sense of humor... and kind eyes... and a warm smile... and-" Tae continued to rattle off her list, leaving Jisoo's head spinning as she tried to keep up with her friend's enthusiastic and detailed description of her dream partner.

Jisoo exclaimed, "God, Tae, you're expecting all these qualities in one guy? That's like finding a unicorn!" Tae's face fell, and she pouted, looking adorable.

"I'll find him, just wait and watch," Tae said confidently, her determination evident.

Jisoo was about to respond, but they were interrupted by Tae's mom calling them downstairs. They exchanged a glance and headed down..

As they entered the living room, Tae and Jisoo settled onto the couch, but Tae's eyes narrowed, sensing something was amiss. Her parents' nervous expressions made her heart race.

"What's going on?" Tae asked, her voice laced with concern, her hands beginning to tremble.

Jisoo offered a reassuring smile and gently took Tae's hands in hers, providing a comforting squeeze.

Eunwoo hesitated, taking a deep breath before continuing, "Tae, dear, I don't know how to say this...". He glanced at Tae, who encouraged him to go on with a nod.

"You know my friend Jeon Jungwoo, right?" Tae's eyes narrowed slightly, trying to recall.

"Yeah, I think so... Did something happen to him?" Eunwoo shook his head, alleviating Tae's concern.
