mayuree's pov.

a few nights ago when we looked at the constellations together, mingi actually asked me to visit the beach with him on the weekend. we seem to vibe really well, especially when the scenery is this nice.

we met on the boardwalk after taking loads of trains and taxis to get here. the salty air clashed with my skin and i sighed in content. the weather was beautiful, not hot, not cold. mingi smiled at me and we began our walk.

a while of silence passed, he removed his hands from his pockets and slid one into my hand. i felt awkward at first, but warmed up to him. nervously, while we walked, i asked, "what's that for?"

"because... i don't know, i just feel like i should hold your hand or something,"

i chuckled and tightened my hold on him. "okay."

we both waltzed down the bright shore of the beach. it was so nice. mingi picked an amazing spot.

we stepped close to the edge of the waters. we'd play games together too; for example, we'd stand right at the water, and run - trying not to let the water catch us, or we'd see who could find a bigger seashell. one time, mingi pretended like he was pushing me in, but caught me last second to tease me.

and when the water got calmer, we started to enjoy the still surroundings more than anything else that day. i took pictures while he drew our names in the sand.

it was so, so much fun.

"mayuree, uh," he cleared his throat nervously. i stared at him expectantly. he just looked at the sunset over the ocean, as if he didn't say anything.

he finally continued after a while, "i'm really lucky to be here with you right now." he admit, blushing profusely.

my heart was beating out of my chest. i tried to pick the perfect response, but i was so flustered. if only he knew how much i adored him.

"me too. i guess it's luck from that star we saw." i said shakily.

he nodded, "should we have dinner together?"
