On the bustling shooting site of Lee Min Ho's new drama, the air was filled with excitement and anticipation. Aromi, wearing a disguise to keep their relationship secret, quietly made her way onto the set, her heart racing with excitement to surprise him.

As Lee Min Ho prepared for a crucial kiss scene with the female lead, he couldn't help but feel a mix of nerves and anticipation. He knew it was just acting, but there was a tiny voice in the back of his mind wondering how Aromi would react if she witnessed the scene.

The director called for action, and Lee Min Ho and the female lead moved into position for the passionate kiss. As their lips met, Aromi's heart sank a little. The sight of him kissing someone else, even for a drama, ignited a twinge of jealousy in her.
As the director called for another retake of the kiss scene, Aromi tried her best to hide her feelings, but each repetition of the kiss made her jealousy more evident in her eyes. She found herself clenching her fists, trying to push away the thoughts that kept creeping into her mind.

Lee Min Ho noticed her unease, and his heart tugged with concern. He wanted to reassure her, to let her know that it was all just acting, but he also understood why she might feel uncomfortable watching him kiss someone else, even for a drama.

As the director called for action once again, Lee Min Ho and the female lead leaned in for the kiss. Their lips met, and Aromi's breath hitched as she watched them. She knew that it was all part of the job, but seeing him so intimately close to another woman ignited a mix of emotions within her.

The director called for another retake, wanting to get the angle just right. Lee Min Ho and the female lead obliged, their lips meeting again. Aromi tried to look away, to distract herself, but her eyes kept drifting back to the scene unfolding before her.

With each retake, Lee Min Ho tried to focus on the performance, on making the scene look as natural and authentic as possible. But in the back of his mind, he couldn't shake the feeling of discomfort knowing that Aromi was witnessing this.

As they took more retakes, Aromi found herself growing more and more agitated.

After what felt like an eternity of retakes, the director finally seemed satisfied with the scene. Aromi let out a sigh of relief, hoping that it was finally over. But her heart sank again as the director requested one last retake, this time focusing on the female lead's neck as Lee Min Ho's lips brushed against it.

The female lead nodded, and they prepared for the final take. Aromi saw the gentle way Lee Min Ho leaned in, his lips pressing against the female lead's neck with a hint of intimacy.

As the scene wrapped up, Aromi's jealousy reached its peak. She felt a mix of anger and sadness, not wanting to admit to herself that she was feeling this way. She knew it was irrational, that it was just acting, but she couldn't help the surge of emotions that coursed through her.

Lee Min Ho finally spotted Aromi among the crew, and he was surprised to see the jealousy clear in her eyes. He walked closer to say hi, but her response was distant and cold. Confused, he realized that something was bothering her, and he quickly pieced it together - the kiss scene.

With a playful smile, he teased, "Ah, I see. You're just jealous because you're a fan of my dramas, right? You never minded my on-screen kisses before."

Aromi huffed, "I'm not jealous! It's just... I didn't realize they had to do so many retakes for these scenes. It's your career, and I have no problem with that."

Her cute anger only fueled Lee Min Ho's adoration for her. He couldn't resist teasing her a little more. "Hmm, are you sure about that? I remember you once complimented me as a good kisser when you first started working with me a year ago."

Aromi blushed, realizing that she had unwittingly given herself away in the past. "Well, that was different. I mean, it's just acting, right? But watching it so many times in person is..."

Lee Min Ho reached out and gently grabbed her hair, tilting her chin up. "You're adorable when you're jealous, you know that?" he said, before leaning forward to kiss her.

Their lips met, It was a kiss that conveyed all the emotions they had been holding back.

Lee Min Ho whispered against her lips, "You're the only one I want to kiss like this, Aromi."

Her heart skipped a beat as he spoke those words, reaffirming his feelings for her. She melted into his embrace, the jealousy fading away as he held her close.

As they pulled back, he grinned playfully, "See? No need to be jealous. You're the only one who gets to kiss me like that."

Aromi smiled, her anger dissipating into affectionate teasing. "Well, I better be. After all, you're mine, right?"

Lee Min Ho's eyes sparkled with love and adoration. "Always," he replied, before capturing her lips in another tender kiss.
Lee Min Ho and Aromi pulled back, their breaths mingling with the excitement of the moment. Aromi couldn't help but smile, her heart fluttering with happiness and relief that he understood her feelings.

Aromi decided to break the silence, playfully asking, "So, what's your plan for tonight? Are you free?"

Lee Min Ho grinned mischievously, teasing her in return, "Hmm, I don't know. Maybe we can have Ramyeon tonight ?"
(P.S. *Ramyeon Mogoelle = Do you want to have ramen with me*
**holds another meaning in korean = wann have sex tonight?)

Aromi's eyes widened at his response, knowing that his words held another meaning in Korean. "Ramyeon mogoelle?" she repeated with a hint of playfulness. "You know what that means, right?"

He chuckled, enjoying her reaction. "Of course, I know what it means," he replied, pulling her into a warm embrace. "I'm just teasing you, Aromi. I would never pass up the chance to spend time with you."

Her cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and delight. "You're such a tease," she said, lightly hitting his chest.

Lee Min Ho laughed, his eyes full of adoration. "Only because it's fun to see you blush," he admitted, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "But in all seriousness, I would love to go on a date with you tonight."

Aromi's heart soared with joy. "Great! I was hoping you'd say yes," she said, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

As the shooting wrapped up for the day, Lee Min Ho and Aromi made their way to a his house to prepare their date at his balcony. They shared stories and laughter over a delicious meal, savoring each moment together.

Aromi couldn't help but marvel at how lucky she was to have someone like Lee Min Ho in her life. The night sky was adorned with stars, and the city lights created a magical ambiance around them.
