Ever since the day Yeonho gave me the ring, our happy days continued.

On New Year's, Yeonho came to sleep over at my house. Although I was a bit upset because he chose to play games with my brother rather than sleep with me.

He gave me a ring as if proposing, so I thought it was only reasonable to expect us to sleep in the same bed.

I could even consider it an engagement ring.

Still, it was blissful to see Yeonho first thing in the morning. It would have been nicer if it was just the two of us, but I still felt like we were a family.

Not long after, on Yeonho's birthday, we had a normal date, just the two of us.

Looking at the ring on my left ring finger, fitting as if it belonged there, brightened my days. To show my gratitude, I bought him a nice pair of sneakers, knowing how much he loved basketball.

"Isn't this too expensive? Maybe something else..."

When Yeonho tried to refuse, I insisted firmly, threatening to get angry if he didn't accept the gift. I wouldn't really get mad at him, but I had to say so, otherwise, he'd feel bad. Especially since he had gotten us expensive couple rings.

But I guess everyone feels this way.

Thinking what you do is nothing special, yet always wanting to give something bigger to the one you love.

With that thought, I naturally smiled. There was no need to feel indebted for what we do for each other. I wished we would say "thank you" instead of "I'm sorry."

Forever, I will for Yeonho.

And Yeonho will for me.

Exchanging gifts in the name of love.

Still, on my birthday, I didn't receive a gift from Yeonho. We had spent a lot recently, so we decided to save a bit. Instead of a present, there was something else I wanted.

The pre-prepared marriage registration form.

It wasn't that I wanted to file for marriage right then, but I wanted to keep it as a keepsake. Of course, if Yeonho wanted to, I was ready to go to the city office right away.

Yeonho, unburdened by the idea of it being just a keepsake, happily filled it out with me. It was a practice run, so we wouldnt make mistakes when writing the 'real' one in the future.

After filling it out, we ate chocolates together. I decided to be a bit childish since it was my birthday.

Like on Pepero Day, I prepared chocolates and smeared them over various parts of my body, waiting for him to eat them off me.

Kisses with Yeonho were always good, but the feeling of his tongue sweeping across my face was indescribable.

Every time his slightly rough tongue brushed my cheek, nose, and lips, my whole body tingled. Of course, it was lovely when he sucked on my tongue like a kiss.

Taking it a step further, I slightly pulled down the neck of my shirt and pointed at my collarbone, asking him.

"Yeonho, here too, please!"

"That's a bit..."

"You promised to do whatever I want today~"

His hesitant, almost shy reaction was expected, so I presented him with an irresistible choice.

"Here or my stomach. Which do you prefer?"

"......"

"I'm fine with both."

I was serious. Whether it was my collarbone or my stomach. Either part was fine with me. The thought of Yeonho licking those slightly intimate places was enough to set my body ablaze.

When Yeonho resignedly touched his tongue to my collarbone, a jolt of electricity ran through me. I barely managed to resist the urge to pull him into bed right then.

"You know, only one year left, right?"

Only a year left.

After that, I won't let him escape like this.

White Day was also celebrated modestly with just a few candies. We endlessly played the candy kiss game. I'd bite one end of the candy, and he would take the other end in his mouth.

We had shared many kisses before, so it might not seem like a big deal, but feeding him like a baby bird was surprisingly fun.

Eating the candy he had been eating, covered in his saliva, also excited me in a strange way.

If it belonged to Yeonho, I liked it.

For that day, I decided not to touch my studies and continuously picked out candies to bite and offer to him.

If there were rewards and breaks like this, studying hard wasn't tiring at all.

Summer came. Our second summer together.

Both Yeonho and I were students preparing for exams, so we intended to focus on studying. But our families planned a joint beach trip. We had become close as families, but I never expected a vacation together.

Yeonho, being focused on his studies, was reluctant at first, but agreed to take a short break when he learned I was going too.

I had thought our next beach trip would be just the two of us as adults, but being with family wasn't bad either.

It gave Yeonho a much-needed break. Once we arrived, I happily watched him enjoying himself.

"Will you put sunscreen on me this time too?"

"No."

"Why not!!"

"I'll do it next year. As much as you want, whenever you want."

"...Is that a promise?"

And I got his assurance.

Looking forward to the activities we could enjoy together next year, my anticipation grew.

I longed for the day when I would meet him again as an adult.

Though we celebrated anniversaries and took vacations, we really focused on our studies. I maintained my usual pace without overdoing it. Yeonho, on the other hand, was putting in an extraordinary effort.

Once, I asked why he was studying so hard. He said it might be challenging, but he wanted to aim for the same university as me.

His grades were improving smoothly, but it would probably be tough. My grades had stabilized and improved compared to my previous life.

In truth, I harbored a desire to attend the same university as him and enjoy the campus couple life we missed out on last time.

However, there was one selfish desire of mine that held back this thought.

I supported him by setting aside the desire that might affect his future, his potential. I taught him the best I could.

If he could get into a university close to the line I had drawn, I would also consider it.

It might be challenging, as it's a level higher than the university I attended before returning to high school, but if possible... If not, I planned to choose the best university my grades would allow.

For our future, when we would walk through life together, ensuring a stable life.

With that in mind, we both focused on our studies.

Meanwhile, Yeonho's mother, impressed by his grades, tried to pay me for tutoring, but I firmly refused.

It was something I did for my boyfriend, my future husband, and it wasn't right to accept payment for that.

It was simply my joy.

"No, thank you, ma'am. I'm just helping my husb... I mean, boyfriend with his studies."

"You did that on purpose, right?"

"It was a slip of the tongue."

Thankfully, Mom understood my feelings and didn't bring up the tutoring fee again. However, she did help a lot with the expenses needed for our studies, which I didn't refuse.

In a way, she was helping someone who would soon be part of their family.

Months passed like that.

And the college entrance exams were right around the corner.

The night before the exam.

I called Yeonho before going to sleep, though I had to wait a while as he was already on a long call. Funnily enough, I felt a bit jealous, even though his conversation was surely with one of his close friends.

Pushing that feeling aside, I made sure he was ready to take the exam without any problems tomorrow.

I hoped for a good result for Yeonho, who had worked so hard.

Then sleep well! If anything happens, make sure to contact me!

"You too, sleep well. Love you~"

We exchanged our love and ended the call, and I fell asleep happily.

And the next day.

I woke up feeling good. I called Yeonho as soon as I opened my eyes, ensuring he woke up on time. His voice gave me strength too.

I prepared early, as something might happen on the way. As always, I had a light breakfast, washed up, and left the house early.

"Good luck with the test~"

"Go, Heena! You got this!"

"Don't be too nervous and stay calm, okay?"

"Yeah, thanks. I'll be back."

After farewells from my family and enjoying the sunny weather, I chatted with Yeonho, who left a bit later than me.

Every day was going smoothly. Maybe, just maybe, if Yeonho does well on his exams as he did before, we might end up at the same university again.

If not, then maybe...

As my thoughts wandered to that possibility, I quickly shook my head to clear away any negative thoughts. I hoped for good results for both Yeonho and me, as much as we had put in our efforts.

Continuing our conversation until I arrived at the exam venue, I sent Yeonho one last message as I reached the entrance.

[ Heena: Im about to enter the school, so turning off my phone! See you after its over! Yeonho, you got this! Love you ]

Then I turned off my phone and put it in my bag.

Everything went smoothly.
