Do you know what a fated moment can be ? - It's falling in love with someone at the same time as they're falling in love with you just like this song


Ria and Taehyung walked slowly along the shoreline, the gentle waves lapping at their feet. The beach was bathed in soft pink and gold, with the sun setting low on the horizon.


The sound of the ocean mixed with their laughter, and for a moment, the world felt distant - just the two of them, as if nothing else mattered.

"This place," Taehyung murmured, brushing a strand of Ria's hair back, "it feels like our own little world."


Ria smiled, the warmth of the sand beneath her toes grounding her. "It's peaceful here. I always feel like I can breathe."


Taehyung chuckled, his hand slipping around her waist, pulling her closer. "Then I guess I should stay close, make sure you're always breathing easy."


She laughed, nudging him playfully. "Tae, you are soo cheesey."


"Only for you," he whispered, lowering his lips to hers. The kiss was soft, tender, and slow - like they had all the time in the world. When they pulled apart, Ria's eyes sparkled, and Taehyung's smile deepened, his heart full.


They wandered closer to the water, their feet sinking into the cool, wet sand. Ria giggled as the waves tickled her ankles, playfully kicking water toward Taehyung.


"Hey!" he laughed, splashing her back. Soon they were caught in a playful battle, running through the surf and drenching each other with sea water, their laughter mingling with the sound of the waves.


"Imagine," Ria began as they finally slowed down, catching their breath and holding each other, "if we were married. What would our life be like?"


Taehyung smiled, taking her hand and twirling her lightly, their fingers still wet from the sea. "We'd live by the ocean," he said, spinning her back into his arms. "Every day, we'd wake up to the sound of the waves."


Ria leaned into him, wrapping her arms around his neck. "And I'd make you coffee," she added, her eyes twinkling.


"And I'd drag you out to watch the sunrise, even when you wanted to stay in bed." Taehyung's smile widened as he leaned his forehead against hers.


"Maybe..." Ria giggled, shaking her head. "Or I'd just pull you back under the covers."Taehyung's playful laugh rang out, and he lifted her off her feet, twirling her around as she squealed with joy. They collapsed onto the sand together, breathless and giddy.


Taehyung propped himself up on one elbow, looking down at her as she lay beside him.

"And when we have kids," he smiled, brushing his nose against hers, "we'll bring them here. Teach them to run along the beach, to laugh like you do... freely, without worry."
