The entire city of Daegu was shrouded in white snowy mist. The distant houses looked like tiny cottages, barely visible through the fog. On the empty road, Jungkook and Taehyung were strolling together. Jungkook was ecstatic-his dream was coming true. He had always imagined walking through the city with his loved one on such a serene night, and today, it was happening.

While Jungkook admired the beauty of the surroundings, Taehyung, mesmerized, kept his eyes fixed on his beloved angel. Under the warm glow of the streetlights, Jungkook's excited cheerful face seemed even more radiant.

After a while, they noticed a man pushing an ice cream cart in front of them. Jungkook was surprised, as it was already half-past midnight. When he glanced at Taehyung, the latter smiled knowingly and gestured for Jungkook to approach the cart. Realising it was all prearranged, Jungkook giggled, gathered his sweater with both hands, and dashed toward the cart. He picked five different flavours, delight gleaming in his eyes.

Taehyung frowned slightly and asked,

--" Why so many? You don't have to eat them all; you'll get a sore throat.

When he reached for the ice cream, Jungkook swiftly pulled his hand back, pouting.

--" Nope! Nothing's going to happen. And you said earlier you wouldn't stop me from doing anything today!

Sighing, Taehyung relented.

--" Alright, alright.

Jungkook smiled and began walking again, holding the ice creams. He savoured the treats, sometimes offering a bite to Taehyung as well. After finishing two cones, Jungkook handed over the remaining ones to Taehyung, urging him to unwrap more. His face was now smeared with ice cream, making Taehyung laugh aloud.

Jungkook puffed his cheeks and said indignantly,

--" Give me my ice creams!

Taehyung, concerned, replied in a calm tone,

--" It's very cold, baby, and you always catch a cold easily. Maybe you could save the rest for another day?

--" But it's not cold at all today!

Jungkook countered, tugging at his warm sweater paws.

--" See? I'm wearing heavy clothes, and I feel fine. I'll be okay, I promise. Now give them to me!

Defeated by Jungkook's persistence, Taehyung unwrapped two more cones and handed them over. Jungkook eagerly devoured them one by one, thoroughly enjoying every bite. After finishing the fifth and final cone, Taehyung pulled out a handkerchief, gently wiped Jungkook's sticky face, and they resumed their walk.

They wandered through the streets, sampling various street foods that Jungkook found irresistible. He now munched on roasted corn while chatting animatedly. Taehyung observed silently, marvelling at how talkative Jungkook had become. Perhaps he was always this lively, but circumstances had kept him subdued until now, Taehyung thought with a sigh.
