To say she was shocked was an understatement. She would never pegged the Oh Sehun is a man with a romantic bone.

When the delivery from the florist arrives, she couldn't suppress the blush on her face, especially after reading his note.

A new start, like the first breath of a newborn,
You shall be my baby, my queen and my love.

Just as she finished rearranging the flowers into a water pot, her phone dings with a notification chat from the man himself, Oh Sehun.

[ We are scheduled for a dinner at a fine restaurant tonight. Be ready. ]

It was short, as always from him. Haejin sighed. Not getting used to this kind of treatment from him. Not when he used to be called as her husband and even more so when she will never get to call him as hers anymore.

Sure she did imagine having a romantic dinner and surprise delivery of flower by him, but knowing all this was done not by his own will, it hurts even more.

But as always, like Haerin said; nothing will change in a month. Oh Sehun can never learn to love her only within a month.

Sehun end up getting ready for the dinner at his office, he had changed himself into a new set of attire and leaving but not after literally forcing Junmyeon to comment on his choice of outfit

Sehun end up getting ready for the dinner at his office, he had changed himself into a new set of attire and leaving but not after literally forcing Junmyeon to comment on his choice of outfit.

He takes in a deep breath. In through the nose, out through the mouth, repeatedly. Feeling nervous and undoubtedly excited. He feels like going on a prom date with a girl he like, or even love.

When his driver pull the car right infront of his house, he steps outside excitedly. Not even waiting for the other to open the door for him as usual.

The man himself went up to the door step to pick the girl up. Clearing his throat before pressing on the door bell.

Haejin was nervous as hell, but she manages to hide them all under her facade. Haerin had reminded her few times before the dinner, to keep her game up.
After all, she did accidentally endanger herself the night they spend together talking over pizza with action movie playing on as a background music.

So she wiped away emotion on her face when the doorbell rang across the house. Taking along her red clutch to match with her black lace and ruffle knee high dress.

Sehun is so whipped. He manages to stare for a good 10 seconds at the girl the moment she step out of the house. He was so used to only seeing her in just her in house attire which is just t-shirts, sweats and shorts.

So he wasn't expecting at all she could look so amazing in just such a simple outfit and a simple makeup. He ran his eyes from her heels up to her laced dress to her soft looking lips causing him to lick his own and finally cathing her eyes.

"Are you done staring?"
He hides his blush got caught red-handed staring with a cheeky smile, "I can always stares at my wife, right?"

Haejin only rolls her eyes at his respond. "Yeah, you only got less than a month to do so."

Automatically, it feels like he tasted bile in his throat. But he swallows it all because if he could point out the blame on someone, it'll definitely be him.

So he reach out for her hand, resting them on his arm as they walk towards the awaiting car. "Let's work hard for the rest of a month we have, hmm?"

His question shocked her, so she remained silent to that. Sehun is letting her know what it feels like to have a gentleman like him taking her out on dinner.

He opened the door to the back seat for her even to the extent of covering her head with his hand as she duck into the vehicle.

The couple sat a seat apart from each other and he hates it. He wants her near, but he knows better than to force himself on her.

Dinner was supposed to be calming and romantic but to Haejin, all that she could feel is just; obligation. the setting was romantic and sensual, but the weight in her heart says otherwise.

She knows she shouldn't get use to this side of Sehun. They were only here, having dinner together just because the both of them need to complete the 'to-do-list' so that they could finally proceed with the divorcement.

They were awkwardly waiting for their order to be made when Sehun breaks the silent treatment. "You know about the other night.."

"There's nothing to be talked about the other night." Haejin cut him off.

She sees flashes of hurt in his eyes before he chased them away. "right, there's nothing to talk about the other night." He tries to carves a smile for her, forcefully. "we were just two person having a talk over pizza, nothing at all."

Haejin had been avoiding his eyes the whole time. He remember the time she used to only look at him as if he is the only person that matters, she never avoided his eyes intentionally and even when she did, it was out of embarrassment.

What a fool of him. Taking the innocent in her personality as a facade to hide the hideous part of her. Someone as innocent as Haejin, he can't afford to lose her.

She is his angel in his world who reminds him of humanity when there is barely none around him. So he will fight for her.

"Sehun-shi, we really shouldn't-" she stops her words prematurely as the waiter arrived with their order. He smiled sweetly at Haejin as he serves her order and the action doesn't go unnoticed by Sehun.

He had to suppressed a growl at the action. "We should just stop whatever this is that we are doing."

"What are we doing then Haejin?" he look straight into her eyes and she had to press the shiver from his hard stare. "or should I say, what are we, Haejin? maybe I should remind you using, Oh Haejin."

She balled her fist on her lap.

Sehun ravished the anger behind her stares. But it was never his intention to make her angry or anything. So he starts again.

"look, Haejin. I know I've done wrong to you. I mistreated you, I take you for granted and ignored you for your sister." She release the breath she had unknowingly hold.

Sehun rest his back against the chair, pulling his stare on his own lap. Their food were yet to be touch. And it seems like tonight, there'll be a lot of talking over eating.

They had the feeling that the both of them need to clear things up from each other.
