"Please stay" Sumi says with tears shining at the edge of her eyes.

Those two simple words, her sleepy voice and her eyes makes Hoseok's heart flutter. He gives her a gentle smile and she closes her eyes instantly, drifting into sleep. With her palm in his, he sits on the floor beside the bed. Staring at her for almost an hour, Hoseok takes every small detail of her face as he's afraid of not being this close to her again.

The scary clouds disappear and the sun that was hiding all night comes out to make people's lives better.

Groaning softly, Sumi wakes up and looks around the room with her eyes half opened.
Everything looks the same, maybe it's just a dream she thinks while being lost in thoughts but when she felt the grip on her palm getting tighter, she looks at her husband's head resting beside her.

"Maybe it's not a dream" she mumbles with a soft smile before moving her body lightly towards him.

Sumi touches his hair and brushes it slowly while staring at his forehead.
In no time she falls asleep again, still holding his hand.

Two hours later, Sumi wakes up again but this time Hoseok isn't beside her anymore. She sits straight on the bed and picks up the letter on the side table along with a yellow rose.

"Good morning Sumi, eat something and take rest. Give me a call if you need something, okay? I love you" she reads the letter out loud and a smile creeps on her face.

Everytime when Hoseok confessed his love to her in the past, Sumi felt guilty since she didn't have any feelings towards him but now, just reading his words in a letter makes her heartbeat fasten.

Meanwhile, Hoseok encounters a problem he never dreamt of.
He enters the elevator to go down to the parking lot but meets Younha while he's in it.
The young girl gives him a big smile and he smiles back in return.

"Good Morning" she wishes and holds his arm with her chest against it.
Feeling awkward, Hoseok tries taking out his hand from her grip but she holds it tighter.

"What are you doing after work? Can you take me out?" she asks excitedly.

"Uhm..sorry I can't. My wife will be waiting for me. Some other time okay?" He gives a fake smile and quickly walks away, making her huff in anger.


Finally when Love started blooming in the cold heart of Sumi, there came a young girl trying to get a married man's attention.
