Transcending time and eternal life.

You've been alive for a long time - too long. You're a divine being, a high goddess, cursed to live an immortal life ever since you broke the rules of the Celestial Realm because you fell in love with a mortal. You were banished to live the life of a mortal, but cursed to live forever and watch everyone die around you.

You've seen empires rise and fall, watched civilizations crumble to dust. You've loved and lost more times than you can count. And each time, the pain is just as fresh as the first.

But there's something different about this man. The first time that Choi Jongho walked into the cafe that you were working at in this time period, you felt something inside you stir and awaken. He reminds you so much of the man that you loved in your last life, so much like him that it takes your breath away when he looks at you. He reminds you of your first husband that you fell in love with many centuries ago. The husband that made you broke the rules of heaven and sealed your eternal fate.

You know that you can't get too close to him. If you do, he'll just end up like all the others. But you can't help yourself. You're drawn to him in a way that you've never been drawn to anyone else before. There's no logic behind it, but the second you laid eyes on him, you knew deep down in your heart that you were meant to be together... even if it was just for a little while.

The day he asked you out, you should have said no. Should have pushed him away. Your life has always been doomed to failure after all, hasn't it? Who knows how long you'll be able to keep him in the dark? What happens when he finds out that you're a divine being?

'Just one date,' you tell yourself. 'If it doesn't work out, then I won't see him again.'

That's what your rational mind tells you, anyway. So you go on that date with him. One date turns into another. Another turn leads to another date. Then another. Before you know it, you've fallen head over heels for him. Because he makes you feel things that you haven't felt in ages. Feelings that are not just from lust. He makes you laugh. And he brings back memories of better days.
