Hate to Admit

18

The view of the sunset is jaw dropping beautiful. She bought me to a beach where there was no people but a house that is a few meters away and a small flower roof setup with a dinning table for two. The soft sound of waves crashing against the sand fills the air, creating a rhythm that matches the fluttering of my heart. We stand a few steps away from the flower-covered setup, my fingers nervously fidgeting with the edge of Jeongyeon shirt. The sun is setting, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, and I can’t help but smile at the sight.

"Oh my god Jeongyeon where have you got me" I said without taking my eyes from the view.

"You like it"

"No I love it, did you set this up" I asked her as we started walking hand in hand.

"Yes I did it with my idea but I got some help from some important person" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Who is that important person that I don't know" I asked her

"You will eventually come to know" she said at that time we reached the setup. She dragged the chair for me and signing to sit.

"I can see your efforts but you don't have to do this you know" she sat opposite me.

"No I want to do this and you deserve more than this" she took my hands fiddling with it.

As i take a deep breath and Jeongyeon glance around to ensure everything is perfect. The candles flicker gently in the breeze, casting a warm glow over the table with beautiful flowers. The scent of the ocean enhanced with the sweet aroma of the fresh flowers.

"Little by little it's getting dark" I said she still finger brushing my hands.

"Wait" she turned on a switch and it became even beautiful.

"You really impressed me with this" I said and laughed at her.

"That's my goal"

"So do you want some wine" she asked and I nodded. She  went to a little box but to my surprise it was a little ice cooler. She took a bottle of red wine and two glasses. She poured the wine into one and handed me.

"Sometime I feel like you are too gentle and that makes me to doubt that you are even a woman" she laughed at my sentance.

"May be iam just a man stuck in the woman's body" I smiled. It totally became  dark in here. Only our place and the house near us is shining in dark.

Suddenly Jeongyeon stood  from the stool positioned herself in front of me stretching here hands in front of me. Suddenly I remember the night that she asked me if she can count on me. That was like the same night. I swear to god this going to be a special tonight. I took her hand and started.

She was doing something in her mobile.

The sound of the ocean fades away, replaced by a quiet intimacy that thickens the air between you.
She leaned back slightly, studying me.

"Mina, I’ve been thinking…"

"Uh oh" she interrupts, her eyes widening playfully.

"When you say that, it usually means trouble"You chuckle but keep your tone serious.

"No, really. I’ve been thinking about our future."Her expression shifts, curiosity mingling with a hint of anxiety.

"What do you mean?"i took a deep breath, the moment feeling monumental.  She dragged me to the centre and placed her hands on my hips.

"I love you, and I want to be with you, not just today or tomorrow, but for a long time. I want to create memories together, like this one, but even more special, so"
