Heeyoung's POV: 

I go home with the dress from the man from the cafe.

He didn't have to do all that, just for accidentally spilling coffee.

Exceptionally charming, yet intriguing...

I drift into a deep sleep, amid all these thoughts

GOSH! I was really tired.

A vaguely familiar dream flashes before my eyes. I am lying in the field of roses once again, the petals of the red flower brushing my bare feet. I feel the cozy, cold breeze kiss my body.

And....

I see a tall figure walking towards me, and laying right beside me. I felt calm in his presence. He turned to face me, and so I did too.

What...

The guy from the cafe...

What are you doing in my dream?

He speaks to me in his unbelievably soothing voice, but I only see his face... Heard Nothing

As I snap out of my dream, I realize that I didn't know his name...

The next morning, I woke up with the dream still vivid, replaying in my mind. I can't shake off the feeling of calmness that his presence brought me, even if it was just a dream. I decide to wear my favorite dress, hoping it might bring some clarity to my jumbled thoughts.

As I walk to the café, I can't help but wonder if I'll see him again. My heart races at the thought. I sit down at my usual spot, sipping my coffee and trying to focus on my notes. But my mind keeps drifting back to him.

Suddenly, I hear a familiar voice.

Sunghoon: (smirking) Fancy seeing you here again.

I look up, and there he is, standing right in front of me. My heart skips a beat.

Heeyoung: (surprised) You! What are you doing here?

Sunghoon: (teasingly) I could ask you the same thing. Do you always haunt this café?

Heeyoung: (blushing) I... I like the coffee here.

Sunghoon: (grinning) Well, I guess we have that in common. Mind if I join you?

Before I can respond, he sits down across from me. I feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. There's something about him that draws me in, even though I barely know him.

Heeyoung: (curiously) So, do you always buy dresses for girls you spill coffee on?

Sunghoon: (laughing) Only the ones who cross the road without looking.

I can't help but laugh at his response, even though I didn't understand his reference. His laughter is infectious, and I find myself relaxing a bit more.

Heeyoung: (smiling) Well, I guess I should thank you for the dress. It's really beautiful.

Sunghoon: (grinning) You're welcome. It looks even better on you than I imagined.

I feel my cheeks heat up at his compliment. There's a moment of silence as we both sip our coffees, but it's a comfortable silence.

Heeyoung: (softly) I never got your name.

Sunghoon: (smiling) It's Sunghoon. And you are?

Heeyoung: (smiling back) Heeyoung.

Sunghoon: (teasingly) Well, Heeyoung, it's nice to officially meet you. So, tell me more about this perfume designing. It sounds fascinating.

As we talk, I find myself opening up to him more than I expected. There's something about Sunghoon that makes me feel like I can be myself. And as the conversation flows, I realize that maybe, just maybe, this unexpected encounter was meant to be.

Sunghoon: (curiously) So, what's the most interesting perfume you've ever created?

Heeyoung: (thoughtfully) Hmm, that's a tough one. I once made a perfume that smelled like a rainy day. It had hints of wet earth, fresh grass, and a touch of ozone. It was refreshing.

Sunghoon: (impressed) That sounds amazing. You must have a really good sense of smell.

Heeyoung: (laughing) It's a requirement for the job. What about you? What do you do?

Sunghoon: (hesitating) Oh, I... I work in an office. Nothing too exciting.

Heeyoung: (raising an eyebrow) An office job, huh? Sounds mysterious.

Sunghoon: (smirking) Let's just say I deal with a lot of paperwork.

We continue talking, and I find myself enjoying his company more and more. There's a playful banter between us that feels natural and easy.

Sunghoon: (teasingly) So, do you always dream about strangers you meet in cafés?

Heeyoung: (blushing) How did you know about that?

Sunghoon: (laughing) Just a lucky guess. But seriously, you seemed pretty deep in thought when I walked in.

Heeyoung: (smiling) Maybe I was. You're quite the mystery, Sunghoon.

Sunghoon: (grinning) And you're quite the enigma, Heeyoung.

As the conversation continues, I realize that I'm not just intrigued by Sunghoon; I'm genuinely interested in getting to know him better. There's something about him that makes me feel like I've known him for a long time, even though we just met.

Heeyoung: (softly) Thank you for the coffee and the dress. It was really kind of you.

Sunghoon: (smiling) Anytime. Maybe next time, we can meet without any coffee spills.

Heeyoung: (laughing) I'd like that.

As we part ways, I can't help but feel a sense of excitement. Meeting Sunghoon was unexpected, but it felt like the start of something special. And as I walk home, I can't stop thinking about him and the way he made me feel.

GOSH Heeyoung! SNAP OUT OF IT! YoU CAnt fALL IN LOvE With A sTranGer!

~But too late, she did~
