As Su Hyang's eyes fluttered open, she was met with Niki's adorable face, his big brown eyes sparkling with curiosity. He was sitting beside her, his legs crossed and his hands clasped together, watching her with an intensity that made her heart skip a beat.
Su Hyang's cheeks flushed pink as she quickly sat up, her long hair tumbling around her shoulders. She felt a sudden shyness wash over her, unsure of how to react to Niki's gaze.
"N-Niki," she stuttered, trying to compose herself. "What are you doing?"
Niki's face lit up with a bright smile. "I was waiting for you to wake up," he said, his voice gentle. "You were sleeping so peacefully, I didn't want to disturb you."
Su Hyang's eyes dropped, her lashes fluttering as she tried to hide her embarrassment. "I...I didn't know you were there," she muttered.
Niki's voice softened. "Hey, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Su Hyang hesitated, unsure how to explain the fluttering in her chest. "N-nothing," she stammered. "Just...just didn't expect to see you here."
Niki's gaze lingered on her face, his expression thoughtful. "You're really cute when you're shy," he teased, his voice low and playful.
Su Hyang's cheeks burned brighter, and she quickly looked away, trying to hide her smile.
Niki stood her up and told," let's do breakfast together.you must be hungry."
Su hyang nodded.
They went to downstairs.Niki was guiding her.
A bright smile on their faces.
Niki sat beside her. Su hyang chicks flushed.
As Niki tried to feed Su Hyang a bite of pancakes, she playfully swatted at his hand, giggling. Their eyes met, and Niki's heart skipped a beat.
Niki's fingers drifted to Su Hyang's hair, gently stroking the soft strands. Su Hyang's cheeks flushed, but she didn't pull away.
Just as they were lost in the moment, Jin Ho emerged from his room, his eyes fixed intently on the intimate scene before him.
His gaze narrowed, scrutinizing Niki and Su Hyang's closeness. The air thickened with tension.
Niki sensed Jin Ho's presence and turned, his expression cautious.
Jin Ho's eyes lingered on Su Hyang, his face unreadable.
Jin Ho sauntered over, a mischievous glint in his eye. "Looks like I interrupted something special," he said, his voice dripping with amusement.
Niki's cheeks flushed, and he cleared his throat. "Just having breakfast, hyung."
Jin Ho chuckled, his eyes dancing with teasing intent. "Oh, I think it's more than that. You're feeding her, stroking her hair...Niki, you're getting soft."
Su Hyang's face burned with embarrassment, and she looked down, her hair falling like a curtain around her face.
Niki shot Jin Ho a warning glance. "Hyung, stop."
Jin Ho held up his hands in mock innocence. "I'm just observing. You two are adorable."
Su Hyang's shyness deepened, and she whispered to Niki, "I think I've had enough breakfast."
Niki's expression softened, and he helped Su Hyang up from her seat. "Let's get out of here," he whispered, sharing a conspiratorial smile.
As they escaped Jin Ho's teasing, Su Hyang's heart raced. She felt like she was melting into Niki's gaze.
Su Hyang leaned against the door, her hand pressed to her racing heart. She felt like she was drowning in her own emotions.
"Why am I feeling like this?" she whispered to herself.
As she replayed the morning's events, Niki's gentle touch, his soft smile, and playful laughter flooded her mind.
"I think...I think I'm falling for him," she confessed, her voice barely audible.
Su Hyang's cheeks burned hotter, and she covered her face with her hands.
"How did this happen?" she wondered. "We just started spending time together, and now...now I feel like I can't imagine life without him."
She took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing thoughts.
"Niki, with his kind heart and beautiful smile...he makes me feel seen, heard, and understood."
Su Hyang's hand drifted to her chest again, and she smiled.
"I love him," she whispered, the words feeling both thrilling and terrifying.
Su Hyang's heart skipped a beat as she opened the door to find Niki standing before her, his eyes sparkling with warmth.
"Hey," he said, his voice low and gentle. "I'm heading out for a bit. Take care of yourself, okay?"
Niki bent down, his face inches from hers. Su Hyang's pulse quickened, anticipating his next move.
Without thinking, she leaned in, her lips almost touching his. But Niki simply dropped a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Be back soon," he whispered, his breath sending shivers down her spine.
Su Hyang's face flushed, and she nodded, feeling a mix of disappointment and delight.
As Niki turned to leave, Su Hyang called out, "Niki!"
He turned back, his eyebrows raised in inquiry.
"Be careful," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
Niki's smile softened. "Always," he promised.
With one last glance, he headed out.
