—— Seori

As I found myself in Jungwon's car, the engine humming beneath us, I couldn't help but wonder about our destination. He stopped by his apartment, and my curiosity bubbled up, prompting me to ask repeatedly where we were going. Jungwon's responses were cryptic, assuring me that I would soon find out for myself.

Minutes later, we arrived at a large grass field. Stepping out of the car, I looked up at the night sky, a breathtaking canvas adorned with countless stars. Jungwon, carrying a few things he had grabbed from his apartment, began walking onto the grass field. Intrigued, I quickly caught up, my curiosity growing with each step.

He found a spot on the field and laid out a blanket, complete with pillows. It was a makeshift haven under the starry expanse, and I couldn't help but smile at the unexpected charm of the evening.

"What are we doing here, Jungwon?" I asked, my eyes searching his face for clues.

He grinned mysteriously, unfolding the blanket. "We're here to enjoy the night, Seori. Lay down, and you'll see."

I obliged, settling onto the soft blanket and propping myself up on a pillow. Jungwon joined me, his gaze fixed on the night sky as he arranged the items he had brought.

"Look up," he said, his eyes reflecting the sparkle of the stars.

I followed his gaze, and as my eyes met the celestial tapestry above, I gasped. The field, bathed in moonlight, became a front-row seat to the cosmic spectacle. A sea of stars stretched endlessly, like diamonds scattered across velvet.

"This is beautiful," I whispered, my breath catching in the sheer awe of the moment.

Jungwon lay beside me, and we both lost ourselves in the brilliance of the night. The silence between us was filled with the soft rustling of the grass and the distant symphony of crickets.

As I marveled at the stars, Jungwon's hand found mine. Our fingers interlaced, creating a connection that transcended words.

As Jungwon and I laid on the blanket, fingers interlaced, our gaze fixed on the celestial tapestry above, a calm settled over us. The night seemed to cradle our shared solitude as we basked in the serene beauty of the stars.

Feeling a gentle pull, I turned to Jungwon and moved closer, laying my head on his chest. His hand, warm and comforting, found its way to my hair, gently playing with the strands. The rhythmic motion lulled me into a tranquil state, and a sense of peace washed over me.

"Seori," he whispered, his voice a soft melody in the quiet of the night.

"Hmm?" I responded, my eyes still fixed on the vast expanse above.

"I'm glad you're here," he admitted, his fingers continuing their soothing dance through my hair.

A genuine smile graced my lips. "I'm glad too, Jungwon."

As the night sky painted a mosaic of stars, each one a distant wish waiting to be whispered, an idea crossed my mind. I shifted my position to look up at Jungwon, the moonlight casting a gentle glow on his face.

"Hey, let's each claim a star and make a wish on it," I suggested, the excitement in my voice mirrored by the gleam in my eyes.

Jungwon's gaze met mine, his expression reflecting a mix of curiosity and warmth. "Claim a star? How do we do that?"

I giggled, feeling the playful energy of the night. "We just pick one, give it a name or a story, and make a wish. It's like creating our own constellations."
