you breathed in the cool and refreshing air of jeju island as you stepped out of the airport, looking for the bus that would bring you to the residence you would be staying at for the next 4 nights. after you settled down in a seat on the bus, you stared at the scenery that began showing up outside the window as the bus began to move. you smiled to yourself, excited at the thought of the fun you would have for the next few days.

you were actually about to graduate from university but since there was a 2 weeks break before the results were released, you decided to go on a 5 days 4 night trip to jeju island all by yourself. you always dreamt of touring the beautiful island by yourself, and you were extremely joyed that you finally had the chance to realise it after all the stressful revision and exams.

arriving at the residence, you checked in and went up to your room. it was not extravagant and grand like other normal hotels, but it was simple and cozy such that it fit the calmness of jeju. after you put down your luggage, you went out to rent a car just behind the residence, according to the itinerary that was already planned beforehand. using the car, you drove around the area and visited some of the shops that caught your attention. there were many different kinds of shops, ranging from cosmetics, souvenirs to clothing. you decided not to spend that much money since you had to save up for the next few days. a few hours passed by quickly and you went into a cafe to relax and rest.

opening the door, you were welcomed with the aromatic scent of coffee beans brewing and the sound of fresh bakes coming out of the oven. you joined the back of the queue at the counter and waited patiently. when it was your turn, you ordered a cup of latte and strawberry cheesecake and went back to find a seat while carrying the tray. however as you turned around, you immediately bumped into a guy who seemed about 10cm taller than you. the hot drink immediately spilled all over your clothes and the cheesecake dropped onto the floor, leaving crumbs everywhere.

"omg are you okay?" the guy asked in a worried tone.

it was then that you took a good look at him. his black hair was left in a natural, semi-messy state which fell over his defined face. he had beautiful eyes and a perfect jawline. he was wearing a long sleeved white shirt, paired with denim bermuda shorts. on his feet were a pair of blue-white adidas superstar sneakers. (a/n: yes reference to the picture hehe)

"y... yes... i'm fine..." you stuttered.

"is there anything i can do to compensate you? your clothes are soiled and your money is wasted..."

"ah no, it's okay."

"really? i feel so bad though... how about this? i'll treat you to the exact same things you ordered and then we can sit down and talk?"

"well, if you insist..."

he ushered you to a comfy seat near the corner of the cafe as he joined the queue to get your latte and strawberry cheesecake. while you were cleaning yourself up as much as possible, you began to stare at him. he was really good looking and even his side profile seemed so breathtaking. he had a rather slim figure so his clothes fit well on him. your stomach began to ache a little, and it happened only when you were nervous. is this what they say love at first sight? it wasn't impossible though, his personality from what you saw so far was that of an extremely kind and caring person. overall, he just seemed like a beam of sunlight that shined so brightly.

your train of thoughts stopped in its tracks when you heard him saying, "here you go."

you looked up at him from your daze and his eyes interlocked with yours. he was smiling ever so beautifully, with his eyes curving slightly like crescents.

"t... thank you."

you began digging into your cheesecake, savouring the sweetness that was one of your all time favourites. a sip of the latte calmed you down and chased all the tiredness from the flight and shopping away. but what you didn't notice was that he was gazing at you all this time.

"so..."

"hmm?" you were a little startled when he suddenly began speaking.

"where did you come from? or are you a local here?"

"oh, i come from seoul. i just happened to be on vacation so i decided to visit this place for a few days. you?"

"seoul is my hometown too! i just love nature so much that i decided to migrate here a few months ago. the calmness of this island was also what attracted me to live here!"

"wow, that's quite fascinating!"

the two of you continued chatting for a long time, as if you had already met for a long time. the sun soon began to set, indicating that it was time to leave already.

"well i guess it's time for me to go now. thanks for the treat today!"

"you're welcome! oh hold on, i realise that i haven't gotten your name yet."

"ah, i'm (y/n)."

"nice name! i'm hoseok. here's my number, in case you need anything else!" he said as he took a pen out of his pocket and wrote on a serviette.

you smiled as you took the serviette hoseok was holding in his hand. it felt warm and comfortable, just like him. although it was a short meeting today, you were glad that you got to meet and interact with someone new. moreover, you were relieved that you had someone to rely on in case you ever get lost on the island and turn to to ask for help if needed. deep down inside your heart, you were praying that you would get another chance to meet hoseok again.
