This is a slow, emotionally restrained story about unspoken love, obsession with cleanliness.
Engfa Waraha lives by rigid rules created by her severe OCD. Cleanliness is not a preference for her; it is survival. Touch terrifies her. Emotions unsettle her. Relationships feel unsafe.
-but as a lifelong test of endurance.
The story unfolds slowly, through daily routines, rules, silences, and invisible pain-where love does not arrive through romance, but through patience, restraint, and care without touch.

SAVED FOR LATER
To twenty-year-old Kim Taehyung, the youngest principal in the school's history, seven-year-old Jeon Jungkook's grand gestures were nothing more than adorable childhood innocence. The daily chocolates, the slightly crumpled roses, and the earnest declarations of love were met with warm smiles and gentle chuckles. To Taehyung, Jungkook was just a sweet kid with a big heart-a cute memory to be cherished and saved for later. But time doesn't stand still, and childhood crushes don't always fade. Years pass, and the little boy with candy wrappers in his pocket grows up. When Jungkook re-enters Taehyung's life, he is no longer the child hiding behind primary school desk props. He is taller, bolder, and entirely unchanged in his devotion. He hasn't forgotten a single promise, a single smile, or a single rose. Taehyung thought it was just a passing phase. Jungkook intends to prove it was a lifelong vow. As line between past fondness and present desire begins to blur, Taehyung is forced to face a reality he never anticipated. Will he ever be able to see Jungkook as the man standing right in front of him-or were some feelings meant to stay saved for later? . Taehyung: "Jungkook, you're not a kid anymore." Jungkook: "Good. Then stop treating me like one and start treating me like the man who's never letting you go." Saved for Later - Add it to your Wattpad reading list today! top:Kook bottom:tae
