THE SWEET LOVE

WITH EACH OTHER

As they walked to the fried chicken spot, Scoups and Eunbyeol strolled side by side, enjoying the warm summer evening. The streets were quiet, with only a few stragglers left from the concert crowd.

"I'm so glad we could hang out like this," Scoups said, breaking the comfortable silence. "It's nice to relax and be ourselves, you know?"

Eunbyeol nodded, "Definitely. I feel like I can be myself around you, Scoups. You're really down-to-earth and kind."

Scoups smiled, "Thanks, Eunbyeol. You're pretty amazing yourself. I love your energy and creativity."

They arrived at the fried chicken spot, a small, unassuming restaurant with a sign that read "K-Pop Fried Chicken." Scoups pushed open the door, and they were greeted by the heavenly aroma of fried chicken and spices.

"Welcome to my favorite spot!" Scoups exclaimed, leading Eunbyeol to a cozy booth in the back.

As they perused the menu, Eunbyeol asked, "So, what's the best thing to order here?"

Scoups grinned mischievously, "You have to try the 'K-Pop Combo.' It's a secret menu item that's not listed. Trust me, it's life-changing."

Eunbyeol raised an eyebrow, "A secret menu item? Okay, I'm intrigued. Let's do it!"

Scoups chuckled, "Great choice! I'll go order for us."

As Scoups went to the counter, Eunbyeol took in the quirky decor of the restaurant, which included K-pop posters, colorful graffiti, and eclectic knick-knacks.

When Scoups returned with their food, Eunbyeol's eyes widened at the spread before her. "Wow, this looks amazing!"

Scoups smiled, "Told you it was life-changing. Dig in!"

"Let's walk by the riverside after eating "

As they walked along the riverbank, Scoups and Eunbyeol continued their conversation, sharing stories and laughter. They discovered more common interests and bonded over their passion for music and art.

Scoups showed Eunbyeol his favorite spot to watch the sunset, and they sat together in comfortable silence, taking in the breathtaking view. Eunbyeol felt at ease with Scoups, enjoying his company and the sense of calm he brought her.

As the days turned into weeks, Scoups and Eunbyeol's friendship deepened. They met up regularly, exploring the city and trying new foods. Scoups introduced Eunbyeol to his favorite K-pop groups, and she introduced him to her favorite artists.

Their friendship was built on mutual respect, trust, and a shared sense of humor. They supported each other's passions and encouraged each other to pursue their dreams.

And as they spent more time together, Eunbyeol found herself feeling drawn to Scoups in ways she couldn't quite explain. She admired his kindness, his talent, and his dedication to his craft.

But she didn't dare to think of it as anything more than friendship. Not yet, at least.
