"Good morning, welcome to Grand Crest Hotel. May I have the name under which the room is booked?"
"Han So Hee," she replied.
The receptionist typed quickly on the keyb...
"I really like you, So Hee. I think I've liked you for a while now."
So Hee's eyes widened in surprise. The weight of his confession hung in the air, making her heart race.

"I know it's not the best time to be saying this," he rushed on, feeling the need to explain.
"With everything happening around us, it's just... you make this hellish world feel a little more bearable. I want to be with you, even if it's just for a short while."
His sincerity made her heart flutter.
Memories of their shared laughter, the late-night talks, and even their silly bickering flashed through her mind.
She had tried to deny it, but she felt a connection with him that was undeniable.
"I... I like you too, Kim Yeon," she admitted, her cheeks warming with shyness.
"I didn't know how to say it. I thought maybe it was just the situation, but now... I realize it's more than that."
A smile broke across his face as he took her hands in his own, illuminating his features.

"Really? You mean it?"
"Yes, I do," she replied, her voice steadying.
"I care about you, and I want to see where this goes, even in this mess we're living in."
"Then... let's make it official," he said, his heart soaring.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
So Hee laughed softly, her heart dancing at his eagerness.
"Yes, I will."
They shared a shy yet joyful moment, their eyes sparkling with newfound affection.
"Okay, then," Kim Yeon said, a playful grin spreading across his face.
"Now that we're officially dating, you have to put up with my terrible jokes for the rest of our days."
"Ugh, I'll take my chances," So Hee teased, shaking her head with a laugh.
"But don't expect me to laugh at all of them."
He chuckled, a feeling of warmth enveloping them as they both realized they had crossed a new threshold together. In the midst of the chaos surrounding them, they had found a flicker of hope and happiness in each other.
