A few days ago Clara moved out of our apartment. It was a happy and sad moment for both of us. I mean, we will always be best friends but now I don't have that someone that I can laugh with, eat icecream from the box, or lay on her lap while I cry whenever I feel like it.
The apartment without my tall, loud, blonde Swedish girl seemed so empty.

🤍

Today was one year anniversary of mine and Taehyung's relationship.
Wow time really flies.

We've been through so much together. When I think about it our relationship had so many ups and downs but we really made it this far.
Lately things between us were awesome and we were our old cheerful and loving selves. He made sure I was never lonely so he was either sleeping at my place or I was at his.

I already bought a few presents for him and was getting ready to go to this surprise dinner he refused to tell me more about.
I decided to wear a shimmering black top that revealed my back and black skinny jeans with red heels. I accessorized my look with a pair of dangling earrings and a few rings.

...

He sent a car for me that was supposed to drive me to the 'secret' location. I tried to get out some information from the driver, but he didn't want to tell me anything.
Ugh, Taehyung is right. I am very impatient. I will just have to wait and see what is going on.

The car stopped in front of a museum. I asked the driver if this is the right location and he told me to just go in and wait for Taehyung.

I walked in a huge room full of amazing artwork, sculptures, paintings... I admired every piece of art and then noticed a small arrow on the floor, and another one, and another one, so I followed them and got in the next area of the museum.

The whole room was dark, only candles and rose petals on the floor leading to a dinner table in the middle of the room. Next to the table stood my amazing boyfriend Kim Taehyung.

I walked over and gave him a big hug.
"Babe, this is the best date ever."
"And it only just begun. Look at you Val, wow. Every time I see you I fall in love all over again."
"Right back at you, that suit really looks good on you." I kissed him passionately and when we finally separated he pulled out the chair for me and we sat down.

A waiter came in the room and brought some food and wine. And suddenly I heard a violin. I looked in the corner of this huge art room and saw a man in the dark, playing violin silently. The echo was so good it felt like I was in a theater listening to a whole philharmonia.

Every detail about this date was well planned and organized. I looked at my baby boy. He was so proud that he made me happy.
"Saranghae Valerie, now and always." He took my hand and kissed it.
"Saranghae Tete. I will forever love you. I miss you the same second you leave my apartment.
Before I met you I never knew, you could be homesick for people too."

Both mine and his eyes watered up.

After dessert we danced to the wonderful sounds of the violin. The man played Con te partiro by Andrea Bocelli.

...

After dinner we went to his place. I hid a gift for him a few days before in my part of his closet. I was worried he might find it but luckily we slept at my apartment last three nights so he didn't have the time for it.

"Close your eyes babe, I have to bring something for you" I said and ran to get his gift.
"Open!"
I watched him unwrap the first gift.
"Oh God, what is this, wow." His eyes were sparkling. "It's cute but I don't understand it" he looked at me with his goofy eyes.

"Tete, it's a painting of how the stars were aligned on the day we had our first date one year ago. And this little thing l here, this signature 'W' can you guess what it means?"
"Aniyooo"
"It's my name initial plus your stage name. V+V means W"
"Whoaaa so creative, I love it!" He kissed me.

"Wait, there is another one."
"Chincha? Give me, give me!"
"This one is a bit basic, but I hope you'll like it." I gave him a little box.
He opened the box and let out a small gasp. It was a pair of Channel earrings.
"Whoa Val, these are expensive. Didn't we say no expensive stuff?" He said and immediately put them on and watched himself in the mirror.
He is so goofy today.

"Okay, your turn" he said as he gave me a small box. I think this is a necklace.
I opened it and indeed it was a Pandora rose gold necklace with a butterfly pendant.
"Wow baby this is so pretty." He put it on my neck and I gave him a kiss.
"And this one" he gave me a smaller box and I almost choked on air. It looked like an engagement ring box. I looked at him with my eyes wide open.

"Anni, anni. Not that! I mean, not right now" he laughed hard and so did I.
I opened the box. It was a pair of keys. I looked at him.
"Move in with me Valerie?"
"Babe, of course i will!" We hugged for a few moments when it hit me "But we will share the bills."
"No!"
"I will pay half of utilities!"
"No!"
"I will cook and make you happy all the time and buy food!!! And I can watch Tannie when you are on tour!!!!!!"
'OKAY!!!!! YOU STUBBORN LITTLE BABY! IT'S A DEAL!"

...

The living room floor was filled with our clothes and shoes. We made love right there on the sofa, next to the windows, while the moonlight was lighting up our faces and bodies. This time he was more gentle than ever. His every touch and kiss was soft.

Later when we were getting ready for bed he told me to open the drawer of my nightstand. Inside there was an envelope. I opened it and immediately started crying.
"Jagi why are you crying?" He sat next to me and took my hand.

It was two plane tickets to my hometown, Sarajevo.

"We are going to meet your family. We can show them we are a very good couple. Is that okay?" He hugged me tight and kissed my forehead.
"Of course honey" I cupped his pretty face, "I'm just very, very happy and overwhelmed.

"I am one lucky man to have you Val"
"I was just about to say the same thing!"
"You are a lucky man?" He giggled.
"Shut up and kiss me!"
