Anniversary

Seolhyun is applying her favorite coral pink lipstick.  She carefully cleans her lip line. "Perfect!"

She is nervous about today.  It's Inseong and her first month anniversary.  They have been dating secretly for a month now, only a handful of people knows about them.  It's been a dream being with Inseong, he is the definition of perfect boyfriend.  He is gentle and attentive, and he always put her first over everything.

It's hard not being able to date publicly, they would even go outside Seoul just to avoid being seen by their colleagues.  But today, they will make an exception.  Inseong said he has everything arranged, she just need to wait at home.

Seolhyun re-examines herself in front of the mirror, then her phone rings.  She quickly tidies up herself and picks up the call.  "Oppa, I am almost ready."

"Take your time, love.  I will be in my car."

Seolhyun puts on some perfume and runs out of the house.  As soon as she gets out of the building, Inseong walks out of his car.  He has changed his hair colour again.  It's Burgundy Red, a match with her colour. He opens the truck and takes out a bouquet of flowers, it's Iris with tulip.

"You look beautiful today." He compliments her and kisses her on her cheek.

Seolhyun smiles radiantly. "Thanks for the flower, I love it.  And I like your hair too."

Inseong smiles back at her and helps her get into the car.

Inseong stops the car in front of a neighborhood cafe.  It is remodeled from a house and it has a really nice front yard.  He has reserved a table at the terrace.

Inseong orders the lunch for them "Can I have a salmon avocado sandwich and two cappuccino please." He turns to Seolhyun. "Since my Seolhyunie is going to have photoshoot soon, we will have a light lunch, and then I will make dinner tonight, okay?"

Inseong's phone rings, he looks at the screen and rejects the call.  Seolhyun frowns "Oppa, is everything ok?"

Inseong shakes his head and smiles "Nothing, it's a spam call." Inseong cuts the sandwich in half and slides it to Seolhyun.

Seolhyun gets a text from Hyeyoon, it's her picture with Rowoon.  She giggles and is about to say something as a waiter approaches them with a cake written "Happy anniversary" on it.

Inseong points at the cake "It's your favorite chocolate mousse cake, since you haven't eat much before, I will grant you a big slice."

Seolhyun loves the surprise "Oppa, before we start eating, let's take a picture. I want to share it with Hyeyoon."

"Sure, let's act cute, 3..2...1" Inseong snaps a photo with Seolhyun's phone.  She goes on and send the picture to Hyeyoon.

"How are Hyeyoon and Rowoon? I heard they haven't seen each other for a while." Inseong cuts a big slice of cake for Seolhyun.

Seolhyun giggles "Haha, I am sure they are doing well. Look at the picture she has just sent me!"

Inseong gives her a spoiling laugh "What kind of game are you girls playing? Just let them win."

"Okay, okay."

It's late in the afternoon, they have arrived to their next stop Namsan tower.  It's one of the most popular dating spot in Seoul.  It is famous for its view and locks of love. 

Inseong takes Seolhyun's hand as they get off the cable car.  They pick a pair of heart shaped locks and write each other's name on them. "Ar...." Seolhyun hurts her finger as she puts the locks on the wall.
