That night, the atmosphere of the café in the corner of the city felt so warm. The dim lights cast a soft glow, while the sound of acoustic music filled the air with a soothing harmony. You came with your lover, Evano Cassiel, to meet his friend Zyan, who brought his girlfriend, Viona.
The four of you sat near a large window that showcased the bustling city street. Your conversation flowed naturally—about work, the latest movies, and various lighthearted stories that brought laughter.
As time passed, the discussion began to shift to more personal topics. In a casual tone, Zyan said, "Zyan and I have done it several times. I think it's a normal thing in a relationship."
Hearing that, you couldn't hide your surprise. Even so, you tried to keep your expression neutral. You glanced at Evano, who was sitting beside you. Unlike the others, he remained silent, slowly stirring his coffee.
"I need to use the restroom for a moment," you said as you stood up.
As you walked away, you unintentionally overheard a conversation between Zyan and Evano.
"You should try it with your girlfriend," Zyan said in a slightly hushed voice. "You've been together for quite a while. Isn't that normal?"
You held your breath, waiting for Evano’s response.
Instead of agreeing, Evano chuckled softly before finally saying.
"She is too precious to me."
His voice was gentle yet firm.
"I don't want to think of her that way, let alone ruin her before she becomes my wife."
Your heart trembled upon hearing those words.
When you returned to the table, Evano turned to you and welcomed you with his warm smile. "All done, love?"
