When Winter Marries Spring || KTH

They said marriage was the beginning of something beautiful - a union of souls, the merging of dreams. But for you, it felt more like the start of a long winter.

The day you married Kim Taehyung, the world didn't pause to celebrate. The sky didn't blush pink, no butterflies danced in your stomach, and love didn't whisper promises in your ear. Instead, you stood under the glittering lights of a grand ceremony, dressed in silk and diamonds, next to a man who barely looked at you.

And yet, something in his eyes haunted you.

Not hatred. But coldness.

Behind the closed doors of a perfect-looking marriage, silence filled the corners of your new home. Days passed in practiced politeness. Nights were colder than you imagined. Conversations stayed shallow.

You learned to smile without feeling it. To eat alone. To speak less.
And he - Taehyung - he watched. Always watched. Never touched. Never crossed the invisible line.

Until something changed.

A single moment - unexpected, vulnerable - cracked the silence between you two. And in that moment, you saw a glimpse of something in him.

Was it concern? Was it guilt?

Or had it been there all along... hidden beneath the quiet, waiting for you to see?

You didn't know then, but the story you thought was written in cold ink was just beginning to bloom - slowly, like a stubborn flower in frost, reaching for warmth.

This wasn't a love story born from magic.

This was a love story that would be built from pain, patience... and truth.
