Jiyong keep staring at his wife when they're at the bar. Meanwhile, Taeyeon just enjoying that night with beer to release her sadness. Jiyong can see his wife sad face when she's drinking but, he didn't say anything. Suddenly, Taeyeon look at Jiyong and says
“Jiyong… thank you... for being here with me...”
“Welcome, dear…” Jiyong replied with smiles.
“Also, I want to say something...” Taeyeon said but she didn’t continue her words.
“What?” Jiyong asked.
“Hmm... I love you...” Taeyeon replied with chuckles.
Jiyong grin after she said that.
“I know… I love you more…” Jiyong said with smiles.
After that, Taeyeon continue to finish her drink. Jiyong can notice his wife is already drunk when she lean her head on the table. Jiyong look at her face and try to call her name.
“Taeyeon?” Jiyong call her softly.
Out of sudden, Jiyong saw her tears flow while her eyes closed. Jiyong went to wipes her tears before he takes Taeyeon to leave the bar.
After he paid, Jiyong carry his wife at his back with care. When they're outside the bar, Taeyeon whisper in Jiyong ear and asks
“Can you take me for a walk for a while?”
Jiyong turn to look at Taeyeon face beside and saw her stare at him sadly.
“I'll take you for walk... then, we're going back... okay?” Jiyong asked.
Taeyeon nodded and reply
“Hmm… thank you, honey…”
Jiyong smiles while he's walking nearby the area. Taeyeon move to hugs Jiyong neck and she rests her chin on his shoulder.
For a moment, Jiyong just continue walking and Taeyeon enjoying it with closed eyes.
“Jiyong…” suddenly Taeyeon call him.
“Yes?” Jiyong replied.
“You think I can build back my brand name?” Taeyeon asked with sad.
“Of course, dear… and I'll help you...” Jiyong replied.
“Jiyong…” she calls him again.
“Yes?” Jiyong replied.
“You think I can achieve my dream?” Taeyeon asked.
“Yes, dear... you can... and I'll make sure you're done it!” Jiyong replied with determined.
Taeyeon suddenly chuckles after Jiyong said that.

“… and thank you to you too… for everything you did for me...” Jiyong replied while he turns to look at her.
“Jiyong…” Taeyeon calls him.
“Yes, dear?” Jiyong replied.
“Can we go home now?” Taeyeon asked.
“Sure… let’s go home…” Jiyong replied.
Afterward, Jiyong went to their car before they leave the place.
AT APARTMENT
Jiyong put Taeyeon on the bed with care. Then, he lay beside her to release his tiredness. Jiyong stare at Taeyeon face and felt sad to see her behave like that. Jiyong know, Taeyeon is trying to hide her sadness but she became honest with her feelings after getting drunk. Jiyong move his hand to fix Taeyeon hair, and then he moves to touch her cheek gently.
“Don't worry... I'll take care of this...” Jiyong muttered slowly.
Next, he gets up to go for bath and change his clothes.
After Jiyong out from the bath, Jiyong notice Taeyeon is not on the bed anymore. Jiyong walks out from the room, and he saw Taeyeon lean on the couch with closed eyes.
“Taeyeon?” Jiyong call her while approaching her.
Taeyeon open her eyes and saw Jiyong wearing a towel.
“What are you doing here?” Jiyong asked.
“I'm thirsty...” Taeyeon replied.
Jiyong saw a glass of water on the table and he asks
“Are you okay?”
Taeyeon nodded.
“Are you finished with bath?” Taeyeon asked.
“Yup… you want to take bath too?” Jiyong asked.
“Hmm…” Taeyeon replied lazily but at the same time, she still feels drunk.
“Let me help you with bath...” suddenly Jiyong said.
Taeyeon look at him and saw Jiyong smirks teasingly.
“Don't give me that smirk...” Taeyeon said but her heart skipping a beat.
Jiyong continue with his smirks and then he carries her by holding her like a bride.
“Wait…” Taeyeon said to stop him.
“What?” Jiyong asked.
“I can take bath my own…” Taeyeon replied.
Jiyong grin before he kisses her cheek.
“Not tonight...” Jiyong said after the kiss.
Jiyong carry her toward the bathroom while Taeyeon hands hugging his neck.
Inside the bathroom, Jiyong place Taeyeon on the sink counter before he helps her open the shirt.
“Jiyong… I can do this…” Taeyeon said shyly after Jiyong open her shirt.
“Nope… let me do…” Jiyong replied while he takes toothbrush, applied the toothpaste and handed to Taeyeon.
While Taeyeon brush her teeth, Jiyong wet the small towel and start to wipe Taeyeon arm.
“Jiyong... remember when I used to put toothpaste on your face before?” suddenly Taeyeon asked when she remembers the incident.
Jiyong narrow his eyes when Taeyeon laughs after she mentions that.
“You know how long I have to smell mint on my face...” Jiyong replied with pout.
Taeyeon still laughs when she saw Jiyong reaction.
“So funny when I think of it...” Taeyeon said before she continues to brush her teeth.
Jiyong smiles after saw Taeyeon is still giggling.
After they're done clean up, Jiyong take pajama for Taeyeon to wear before he went to wear of his pajama.
“Thank you…” Taeyeon said after both of them on the bed.
Jiyong smiles and he reply
“Let's get a sleep...”
Taeyeon move to be closer to Jiyong and then Jiyong hugs her shoulder. After they make each other comfortable, they went to sleep. However, after few minutes, Jiyong still can't get sleep. He kept staring at his wife in dim light with mixed feelings.
