Unspoken Feelings ( A love that defines the odds )

13. Into the Future

The weeks following the magazine release were a whirlwind of activity for TWICE. Their popularity surged, and the bond between Sana and Tzuyu only seemed to grow stronger as they faced the excitement together. The more they shared their experiences, the more their fans embraced their relationship, leading to an even more profound connection with ONCEs.

As autumn settled in, the air grew crisp, and the leaves began to change colors. The members decided to plan a short getaway to a cozy cabin in the countryside to recharge. The idea excited everyone, especially Sana and Tzuyu, who looked forward to spending quality time together away from the hustle and bustle of their daily schedules.

On the day of the trip, the group piled into the van, laughter echoing as they made their way to the cabin. Tzuyu sat next to Sana, their fingers intertwined, both feeling the anticipation in the air.

“I can’t wait to see the leaves! I heard it’s beautiful this time of year,” Sana exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Tzuyu nodded, a soft smile gracing her lips. “And we can have a bonfire at night! I’ll bring the marshmallows!”

“Perfect! S’mores night!” Sana said enthusiastically, leaning her head against Tzuyu’s shoulder, feeling a wave of contentment wash over her.

Once they arrived at the cabin, the members couldn’t help but marvel at the stunning scenery. The cabin was nestled among tall trees, the ground carpeted with golden leaves that crunched beneath their feet.

“This place is magical!” Momo exclaimed, her eyes wide with wonder.

As they settled in, the members unpacked and prepared for their first evening together. They set up the bonfire outside, gathering around as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the scene.

Tzuyu lit the fire, and the flames flickered to life, casting a comforting light around them. The members settled on blankets, with Sana and Tzuyu sitting close, sharing a plate of marshmallows and graham crackers.

“Okay, let’s share spooky stories!” Jeongyeon suggested, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

As they took turns sharing ghost tales, Sana felt a thrill run down her spine, half scared and half excited. When it was her turn, she decided to tell a story about a local legend.

“Once, in a village nearby, there was a spirit who would wander the woods at night, seeking lost souls...” she began, her voice dropping to a whisper.

The other members listened intently, leaning in closer, captivated by her storytelling. Tzuyu watched Sana with admiration, her heart swelling at how effortlessly Sana could draw everyone into her world.

After the last story, the group burst into laughter, the fear of the tales dissipating in the warmth of friendship.

As the night wore on, the members began to roast marshmallows over the fire. Tzuyu handed Sana a perfectly toasted marshmallow, grinning widely.

“Here you go! Just the way you like it,” she said, her voice soft and affectionate.

“Thanks, Tzuyu! You know me so well,” Sana replied, her heart fluttering at the small gesture.

They made s’mores, indulging in the delicious combination of chocolate and gooey marshmallows, enjoying the taste of the night.

As the fire crackled and the stars twinkled above, Tzuyu leaned closer to Sana, their shoulders touching. “Can we take a moment to just enjoy this?” she whispered, her voice barely above a murmur.

“Absolutely,” Sana replied, her heart swelling with love.

They fell into a comfortable silence, watching the flames dance and the stars shimmer in the night sky.
