The sun was beginning to set as a sleek black luxury car pulled up in front of the elementary school gate. A tall man stepped out gracefully, his tailored suit hugging his figure perfectly. Jung Jaehyun walked forward calmly, his eyes focused on the screen of his phone before shifting toward the school entrance. As always, his presence drew attention. Some parents picking up their children stole glances—some with admiration, some with curiosity.

Among them, a well-dressed woman greeted him warmly. He gave her a small, polite smile and responded courteously. A light conversation ensued, mostly about their children and school matters.

However, from across the street, someone was watching them, her heart growing heavy. You stood there, wearing a giant balloon costume, your hands filled with colorful balloons and food boxes. It all felt ridiculous now. Originally, you had planned to surprise your kids and husband—hoping to bring a bit of joy amidst his busy schedule.

But what you saw instead was your husband, dressed in his perfect suit, talking to another woman effortlessly, completely unaware of your presence.

As the school bell finally rang and children started running out, Jaehyun turned his gaze toward the crowd. When he noticed a group of kids running toward someone in a balloon costume, his brows furrowed slightly.

His expression shifted—confused, even slightly annoyed.

"Who is that?" he muttered under his breath, briefly glancing at the woman beside him, who also chuckled at the ridiculous sight.

He had no idea.

He didn't realize that the person behind the silly costume was his own wife.
