Y/n and Minju began their aquarium date, their faces lit with anticipation as they entered the underwater world.
The aquarium was a breathtaking sight, its vast expanses of azure waters teeming with a dazzling array of aquatic life. The gentle hum of the filtration systems and the soothing splashes of the creatures swimming by created a tranquil ambiance, inviting visitors to lose themselves in the captivating world beneath the surface.
Minju's eyes sparkled with wonder at the sight of a stingray gliding gracefully and a vibrant array of fishes swimming around.
"It's been so long since I last went to an aquarium. I guess that was when I was in elementary school," Minju said, her voice tinged with nostalgia.
As they continued walking, an interesting aquatic species resembling a shark entered Minju's line of sight. "Is that a shark?" she asked, her curiosity piqued.
Y/n responded, "Oh, that's a bullhead shark. In Japanese, it's called 'cat shark' because their head and eyes look like a cat's. It's from the order Heterodontiformes, family Heterodontidae. It's a kind of shark that's not very violent." He spoke monotonously, sharing his knowledge about the shark.
Minju was amazed and awkward at the same time. 'Wow, he knows a lot!' she thought, her gaze softening as she stared at Y/n, who was intently watching the group of aquatic animals through the glass. His figure seemed to shine from Minju's perspective. 'Looks like he's having fun,' she mused.
"Oh," Minju muttered, catching Y/n's attention. "I know that one!" She pointed at a singular creature swimming along the azure water. "I think... um..." She thought hard for a second. "It's a remora, isn't it? The one that sticks to sharks." She turned her head to Y/n, who was staring at her with a slight smile. Minju's heart fluttered under Y/n's gaze.
"Oh, what? Am I wrong?" A bead of sweat formed on Minju's cheek. Her question snapped Y/n out of his trance.
"No. I mean, you're right," Y/n reassured her.
"I guess... I'm too excited since this is our first date," he confessed, standing side by side with Minju, keeping his eye contact with her. "I just couldn't take my eyes off of you."
Minju was surprised, caught off guard for a second. She quickly turned her head away, hiding her blushing face. 'I didn't see that coming!' she thought, her heart beating rapidly, flustered by Y/n's sincerity.
They continued their aquarium tour, watching a sea lion show, examining different sea cucumbers, with Y/n sharing fun facts while Minju intently listened and admired him. They also marvelled at countless jellyfish side by side.
Finally, they arrived at the aquarium's tunnel. "It's pretty here in the tunnel," Y/n said, enamored by the beauty of the aquatic world around them.
"Right," Minju responded.
