The following morning greeted Baekhyun with warm sunlight streaming through his bedroom window, casting a golden glow on his surroundings. Stretching lazily, he slowly emerged from the bed,ready to start the day ahead.

As he made his way downstairs, the comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air, hinting at his mother's presence in the kitchen. Baekhyun's parents were waiting at the breakfast table, their eyes twinkling with anticipation. His mother, couldn't help but inquire about the previous evening.

"Good morning, Baekhyun, " his mother greeted him with a knowing smile. "How was your date with Serie?"

Baekhyun, still basking in the memories of their time together, felt a mixture of emotions as he returned his mother's smile. He took a seat at the table, pouring himself a cup of coffee and trying to gather his thoughts. His parents, their eyes filled with anticipation, eagerly awaited his response about the previous evening.

"It was... um, it was alright, Mom," Baekhyun replied, his voice slightly hesitant. "We went to a nice restaurant, and, well, Serie is... she's a nice person."

His mother sensed his shyness and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Just 'alright'? That doesn't sound like you, Baekhyun. Are you sure everything went well?"

Baekhyun fidgeted with his coffee cup, feeling a bit guilty about his initial reluctance to go on the date. He didn't want to reveal how much he actually enjoyed the evening, fearing that his parents would or make a big fuss about it.

"Yeah, Mom, it was fine," Baekhyun finally admitted, trying to play it cool. "We had some good conversations and stuff. I mean, it wasn't anything special, you know."

His father chuckled, seeing through Baekhyun's attempt to downplay his true feelings. "Oh, come on, Baekhyun. We know you better than that. You've got that 'post-date glow' about you. Admit it, you had a great time!"

Baekhyun couldn't help but blush, feeling a mixture of embarrassment and joy. "Okay, okay, maybe it was more than just 'alright'. We did have a great time, and I... I think there's something special about Serie."

His mother's eyes softened with understanding, and she reached out to squeeze his hand gently. "That's wonderful to hear, Baekhyun. We're glad you gave it a chance. Sometimes, the best things come when we least expect them."

His father agreed with a nod. "Just take your time. Stay patient , and let things happen naturally. Enjoy the journey of getting to know each other."

Baekhyun felt a sense of relief wash over him as his parents expressed their support and understanding. Their words gave him the confidence to embrace the budding connection he felt with Serie and to allow himself to be open to whatever the future held.

As they continued their breakfast, the atmosphere became lighter, filled with laughter and warmth. Baekhyun's heart brimmed with gratitude for his parents' understanding and for the opportunity they had given him to meet someone like Serie.

After a refreshing shower, Baekhyun slipped into a comfy black short and a white t-shirt. He felt at ease in his casual attire, perfect for a relaxed Sunday. Then he reached for his phone, which lay on the nightstand beside his bed, and checked the screen. Baekhyun’s heart skipped a beat as he saw Serie's reply to his late-night message. He couldn't help but smile. Carefully, he read her response.

Serie:

"Hey Baekhyun, I'm so glad to hear from you. It truly was a wonderful evening. No need to apologize for the late message. I arrived home safely and had a restful night. I hope you did too. Thank you for checking in."

His smile widened, and a sense of warmth enveloped him. Then he grinning, typed out his message to Serie.
