Moving to Seoul felt like diving headfirst into a completely different life. The city was loud, fast, and alive in a way you weren’t used to—but something about it made you feel like you were exactly where you needed to be. You didn’t expect to meet him so soon.

Felix was one of the first real connections you made. You met through mutual friends—just a casual hangout that turned into a night of laughter and subtle glances. There was something about him. Maybe it was the way he laughed, or how he made everyone feel seen. Maybe it was how easy it was to talk to him.

You started seeing more of each other. Group outings turned into inside jokes, and late-night chats turned into late-night walks. Somewhere between shared coffees and playlist swaps, you started liking him. You weren’t sure if he felt the same—until that one night.

You were sitting in his car, parked on a quiet street, music playing low. The windows were fogged just slightly, the air warm and still between you. He kept glancing over, fingers tapping the steering wheel. Then he said it.

“I like you. I think I’ve liked you for a while.”

Your chest filled with heat, and your cheeks ached from smiling. You told him you liked him too. And from that moment on, you were something real.

Years passed. You dated, you fought, you grew. You learned each other’s habits and flaws, supported each other through hard days, and created memories that felt like home. Being with Felix never stopped feeling like a choice—one you were happy to make over and over.

One night, after a party, you both came home a little too drunk. You stumbled into the apartment, laughing, bumping into furniture, shoes tossed somewhere you’d forget. You flopped onto the bed, and he followed, immediately wrapping himself around you like you might disappear.

His face pressed into your neck, warm breath against your skin. “You’re my favorite person,” he mumbled, voice low and slurred. “Like… I’d marry you.”

He kept kissing your face—your cheeks, your forehead, even the corner of your lips. Messy, soft, and a little silly. But it made your heart thud just like it always did with him.
