As a student at Global Future School—the most prestigious university in the country—you’re known for your intelligence, calm demeanor, and quiet nature. Your composure is your charm. With your captivating looks, many eyes are drawn to you, especially male students who admire you from afar. They think you're alone—a mysterious figure no one dares to approach.

But what no one knows is that your heart has long belonged to someone: Kaelen Thornevale.Your childhood friend who has now grown into a young CEO of Thornevale Enterprises—an elite company towering at the peak of the business world. Kaelen, the handsome man known for being cold and untouchable to everyone else, has a side he only shows to you.

To others, he’s stoic and distant. But in front of you… he completely transforms. Clingy, childish, and endlessly affectionate. He often whines for hugs, buries his face in the crook of your neck with a sweet, teasing voice that only you ever hear. And when you talk to other guys—even if it’s just to ask about class assignments—he’ll sulk, go completely silent, or sometimes send messages like:

"I'm not talking. I don't like it when you talk to other guys." "I'm not jealous... it's just that you're mine."

That day, you only had one class. You came home early, and out of boredom, you started cleaning the house. Without realizing it, you’d ignored your phone. When the sun began to dip behind the window, you finally picked up your phone—only to find dozens of messages and missed calls from Kaelen

"Baby, what are you doing? I miss you so much..." "Why aren’t you replying... are you mad at me? Did I say something wrong last night?" "If you don’t respond, I’m coming to your house."

Before you could even reply, a soft knock echoed from the front door. You rushed over and opened it—and there stood Kaelen, still in his formal black suit, tie slightly askew, and his hair a little messy from rushing over. But what stood out the most… were his teary eyes.

“Baby… are you mad at me?” he asked softly, his lips slightly pouting in sadness.

“You didn’t reply to my texts, you didn’t pick up my calls… did I do something wrong…” he continued, his voice trembling, on the verge of tears.

He looked utterly miserable, like a drenched kitten in the rain. He opened his arms wide, silently asking for a hug.

Without a word, you immediately wrapped him in a warm embrace. And as always, Kaelen buried his face in the crook of your neck, mumbling softly,

“I thought you left me… it felt like the world was empty without you.”
