One Saturday night, they went stargazing. It was then that Julia decided to reveal her philosophy about love.

"I think that hearts are like plants. You see, paper is a common analogy, but after being hurt, plants grow again. Paper can't just be fixed, you need a new sheet. You don't get a new heart."

"Plants need care, and love, and so do hearts. It's a fitting analogy."

"So simple, yet so impactful. I know, right?"

"I guess. But I have a question."

"You do this weird thing where you ask me TO ask a question, but sure... what is it?"

"If our plants are so easily crushed, why do we give them away at all?"

"Well, that's so the heart can thrive."

"My heart thrives very well with me. I'm never going to give mine away to anyone."

"Okay, you're 'so sweet', like sugar. I think I might start calling you suga. Anyways, ... I've got to get going now. It's getting pretty late, and I've got brunch with our colleagues tomorrow. Bye!"

She exited the room, leaving Yoongi with only a few words left to speak.

"...except you."
