"You're staring again," I tell her for the nth time, rubbing the back of her hand in a gentle manner.

Hanni nods and moves closer to me, resting her head on top of my shoulder as I let mine rest on hers after.

"I've seen that view a million times, and honestly? I'd rather stare at you instead," she replies softly, her words touching my heart as it starts to beat faster.

I sigh and jut my chin in thought.

"What's gotten into you?" I ask her, watching the birds fly as high.

She detaches herself from me a bit and quirks an eyebrow, giggling lightly.

"What do you mean?" she asks back, narrowing her eyes on me as I shrug my shoulders.

"I guess I'm just not so used to you being—" I stare deeply into her brown orbs and smile weakly, "—like this." I gesture to her whole body as Hanni chuckles at my words.

She combs her hair back and hums.

"I guess I've just grown," she answers me simply, almost like it was just that easy to say.

"Whenever I think back to how I was in the past, it makes me want to strangle myself to death," she jokes lightly, and it makes me smile.

"You know I love you, right?" I say in a quiet voice, almost scared for the rejection I had from her before, but yet, I know everything's changed now.

"I've never stopped loving you, Hanni, and I don't think I can ever stop," I add in all honesty, bringing our clasped hands up to kiss her knuckles one by one.

"I'm sorry I left you and our child. I'm sorry I wasn't beside you when you suffered, but I promise, the moment you told me everything and you left me two years ago, I suffered too. I am so fucking mad at myself. And I know the only thing that can bring us back together is, again, giving each other time to heal. And even though we've been through so much shit—" we both laugh at this, "I wouldn't have it any other way because it's made us stronger—individually and together."

Hanni's eyes brighten up, as light as the shining sun, and she leans in to close our lips together, letting our mouths just stay there, connected with one another to feel each other's love.

Hanni smiles against my lips and steps back, bringing her free fingers up to tuck a loose strand of hair behind my ear.

"And you know I love you too, right?" she whispers back softly, resting her hand on my cheek as I lean into her touch that's just so heavenly.

"I never stopped loving you too. I promise, Min, I'm going to make up for all the shit I've caused for both of us. For being a bitch, for not wanting labels in high school, for not showing up on our first date, and for not telling you about our baby." She sighs, irritated at herself, and it's just too cute.

I respond by grinning widely and bringing our lips together again, our kiss cut short by a flash on the side.

We separate and turn to see what's up when we catch a boy from a family near us plucking out a film from his Polaroid, handing it over to us with a sly smirk.

"For memories," he tells us shortly, walking away when I accept the token and look at it with the biggest smile ever.

It's just the most adorable thing I've ever seen, and I just want to print a million more copies like this.

Hanni gasps in awe.

"That's so cool," she says, nibbling on her lower lip.

"Think he'd give me another one?" she asks me with hopeful eyes, and I laugh, loving her adorable side so much.
