WITH fingers intertwined and a lighthearted conversation sounding out between them, the boy paused mid sentence as he leaned forward, adjusting their locked hands slightly as he tugged her closer.

Using his freehand, his fingers wrapped around the door handle to a local diner, pulling it open as he stepped aside. “After you.” Heeseung let out with a smile, bowing his head playfully.

His hand dropped hers, instead resting on her lower back as he guided her into the diner with care — to which she huffed out a small laugh and hummed in content.

“Woah, such a gentleman.” Haewon teased, nose scrunching up slightly as she tilted her head off to the side, stepping into the diner — the cool air from the AC a contrast to the warmth outside.

“Thank you, thank you. I try my best.” The boy breathed out with a sheepish grin, his hand finding hers yet again. “Where do you wanna sit?”

Haewon paused, lips tucked into a thin line as her eyes wandered around momentarily. Spotting a vacant booth in the corner, beside a window — she smiled and tugged him along with her.

“Here.” The girl stated, as he nodded and hummed softly in return, helping her into the booth before taking his seat on the leather cushioned seat across from her.

“You have fine taste in seating arrangement, I will say.” Heeseung chuckled, reaching up to push his hair out of his eyes as she smiled cheekily.

“Do I? Wow, that's an honor.” She huffed out jokingly, shifting in her seat slightly as she leaned over the table, eyes falling along the small menu sheets placed in front of them.

“I'm paying, by the way. So order whatever you want, I don't mind.” Heeseung said, as she lifted her head to connect her gaze with his.

“That's alright, let me pay for my own meal. We can split.” Haewon muttered, shrugging her shoulders. “After all, I actually have money to spend now that I have a job.”

“Don't blow your first few paychecks right away. Let me treat you this time, yeah? Save that up for something else. Like the manhwa you love so much.” He reasoned, waving off her words.
