That day, February 9th, was a special day for Jungwon. He had just turned 18. Your seven-month relationship felt even stronger, especially after two days ago, on your birthday, when he came with a small cake and a wallet as a gift. Even though it was simple, you accepted it wholeheartedly because what mattered most wasn’t the price but the fact that it was from Jungwon. Today, you wanted to return the favor with something even more special—a birthday surprise he would never forget.

After school, Jungwon came to pick you up at your house as planned. But as he opened the gate, he was surprised to see the small decorations you had prepared—tiny balloons hanging on the porch, a cake with an 18-shaped candle on top, and you standing in the middle with a warm smile.

"Happy birthday, Jungwon!" you cheered excitedly.

Jungwon froze for a moment, his eyes widening. "You… did all this for me?" he asked softly, his voice slightly trembling.

"Of course! This is your special day. There’s no way I wouldn’t celebrate it," you replied with a smile.

Jungwon looked at you, his eyes glistening. "I… I’ve never had a surprise like this before,"

You gently took his hand. "Well, now you have me. And I’ll always be here to celebrate your special days," you reassured him.

As the moment warmed, you pulled out a box from behind you and handed it to Jungwon. He took it, confused, then slowly opened it. The moment he saw what was inside—a pair of Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG sneakers he had always dreamed of—his eyes widened in shock.

"Yeah, I know you've wanted these shoes for a long time. So, I bought them for you," you said with a sincere smile.

Jungwon was speechless. He just stared at you with an overwhelmed expression before finally pulling you into a tight hug. "Thank you… Thank you so much. I really didn’t expect this," he murmured.
