After the talk with her dad, Karina goes back to her office. Hirap actually siyang magfocus so umalis siya nang maaga. Jongin picks her up and nag- dinner muna sila bago tumuloy sa apartment ng kasintahan. Bakas sa mukha ng lalaki ang pag aalala kaya kahit na subsob pa ito sa trabaho, agad itong umalis sa opisina at pinuntahan siya. That's one of the things she appreciates about him. He prioritizes her sa mga ganitong pagkakataon.

...

"Hon, okay ka lang?" Jongin appears in front of her looking down at her. She's in the sofa, the TV is on pero naglalakbay ang isip niya.

Nginitian niya ito ng tipid. "Just thinking."

Lumuhod ito sa harapan niya pouting at her. Kakatapos lang nito magshower at magbihis. Jongin seems to be manly and tough to the eyes of many but he acts like a puppy around her.

Ipinatong nito ang ulo sa unan na nakatapatong sa hita niya acting cutely at her.She smiles at the sight. She actually adores this side of him. "Don't think about it too much. Your dad reaching out is actually a good sign. It'll be okay. Trust me." 

"I hope so, hon." She says as she caresses his face. Actually it isn't the only thing that is bothering her. But she won't tell him that.

"Will you stay here tonight, hm?" He wiggles his brows at her.

She chuckles as she pinches his nose. "Maybe next time? Nagpasundo na ako kay ate."

Though he looks disappointed, he nods understandingly and sits beside her. He puts his arm around her and pulls her closer. Hinalikan nito ang noo niya as he closes his eyes. "Can't wait to marry you so every day nakakasama na kita." 

She hums as an answer. If this was the day before, she'd be as thrilled as him but she is too occupied by the event prior to the meet up with her father. 

She looks up and holds his face. She needs to erase whatever it is that she's feeling as she kisses him. He is surprised by the initiation, but willingly responds right away. 

They've only pulled away when her phone rings indicating that her sister has arrived.

....

It's the second and last day of concert in Seoul bago sila lumipat sa ibang lugar.

The crowd is as big as the first day. Winter feels emotional once again as she sings for the last stage of the night. The whole stadium is illuminated by the purple lightsticks which are swaying in a synchronized manner as the audience waves them in the air and sings along with her. 

She wanders at every corner of the stage to wave at her fans, para makipag interact at magpasalamat.

Pakatapos nun, bumalik siya sa center stage para magbow at pormal na magpaalam.

Patuloy siyang masayang kumaway kasabay ng nakakabinging ingay sa buong lugar hanggang marating niya ang backstage. Nakaabang na ang kany
