Third Person's POV

The warm afternoon sun streamed through the windows of Heeseung’s living room, casting a soft glow on the trio seated around the coffee table. Heeseung, Jay, and Sunoo were deep in conversation, their tones a mix of excitement and nostalgia.

Jay leaned back in his chair, smirking. “It feels like déjà vu, doesn’t it? Us sitting here, planning your proposal. It’s like we’re back in college.”

Sunoo nodded enthusiastically. “The first time was a success—well, until, you know… life happened. But this time, we’re going to make sure it’s perfect. No interruptions, no misunderstandings, just love.”

Heeseung chuckled softly, his eyes warm as he thought about Nina. “Yeah, this time has to be perfect. She deserves that much. After everything we’ve been through… I want to show her that my love for her has never wavered.”

Jay raised an eyebrow. “So, what’s the plan, maestro? How do we make this unforgettable?”

Heeseung leaned forward, his fingers laced together. “I’ve been thinking about hosting a dinner party for our friend group. It’s been so long since we’ve all been together. It’ll be the perfect cover. We’ll celebrate the reunion, and before dinner starts, I’ll propose to Nina.”

Sunoo grinned. “A classic plan, but with a Heeseung touch. I like it.”

Jay rubbed his hands together. “Alright, let’s talk logistics. We’ll handle the venue and decorations. Sophie can help distract Nina while we set everything up. Sunoo, you can keep Rowoon entertained. That kid adores you.”

Sunoo puffed out his chest playfully. “Of course he does. I’m the fun uncle.”

Heeseung laughed, his heart swelling with gratitude for his friends. “I can’t thank you guys enough. You’ve been with me through everything—from falling for Nina in middle school to proposing to her in college. Even when we broke up, you were there. And now, you’re helping me make this right again.”

Jay clapped a hand on his shoulder. “That’s what brothers are for, Hee. Now, let’s make some memories.”

The venue was breathtaking. Twinkling fairy lights adorned the ceiling, and soft music played in the background. The table was elegantly set, and the room buzzed with excitement as everyone caught up after years apart.

Nina was seated with Sophie and Siya, laughing at one of Sophie’s stories. She was completely unaware of the nervous energy radiating from Heeseung, who was seated a few chairs away.

Jay subtly nudged him. “It’s time, man. Go get your girl.”

Heeseung stood, his heart pounding but his resolve firm. The room quieted as he cleared his throat.

“Love,” he began, his voice steady despite the emotions swirling within him. “I’ve been in love with you for most of my life. Since we were kids in middle school, you’ve always been the brightest part of my day. When I had to move away in high school, I thought I’d lost you forever. But then we found each other again in college, and it felt like fate was giving me a second chance.”
