"town-…"

So to explain why I'm doing this, I have to go back about an hour.
If the explanation is omitted, we'll just be called crazy people who kiss each other the day after meeting each other.
I became the heroine of Miyeonsi
Episode 3
fireworks
🌷
“Would you like to take a look around?
“The festival is quite pretty, especially at night.”
“…Oh, of course, if you don’t mind.”
Even though I'd come all this way, Kim Seok-jin kindly asked my opinion, and my hardened heart softened a little. He's really handsome and has great manners.
“…Of course it’s good. Let’s go see it, oppa!”
He ran brightly with a big smile, then turned around and spoke to Seokjin. The dark night sky and the artificial structures that brightened it. The atmosphere was quite warm.
Kim Seokjin let out a laugh at the sight of me. He grabbed Seokjin's hand, who had a look on his face as if to say, "I really can't help it," and led him along. Looking at my senior's smiling face, my stomach churned. He must have been a fictional character.

“Hey, oppa! Wind lantern!”
Suddenly, a pretty lantern floated into the sky, and I pulled at my brother's clothes, seeming surprised. My brother seemed surprised for a moment, then smiled at me and asked,
“Is this your first time seeing a lantern?”
“Yes-. If I had known this would happen, I would have seen it sooner.”
Yeah, if I had known it would be like this. Even if I had lived a dirty life, I would have seen the lantern festival at least once. Then it would have turned out like this.I don't think so.
Still, since I was already in the game, I wanted to try everything I wanted and then die. I decided to forget my harsh reality for a moment and enjoy the sight of this strange senior and the pretty lanterns, who approached me as if I wasn't in a virtual world.
“As long as you’re okay, oppa…”
“Want to see from up there? There are stairs leading up there too.”
The place I pointed to was a slightly sloping roof. But a long ladder stretched out, as if to lead us down. If this is part of the system, I think this is the first time I've felt gratitude towards it.
“Okay, whatever you want.”
With my brother's permission, who had easily fallen, I took his hand and led him to the rooftop more naturally than before. It was a little cute how he, who was bigger than me, obediently followed me.

“Ah, it’s refreshing.”
“It’s not good to come up here, oh my.”
“Oh, really. I told you it’s the best at breaking the flow.”
I frowned at the stats screen that suddenly popped up after a long silence. But why is the content like this? A true… kiss? This isn't about fucking kissing. We've only known each other for a day?
I'm looking forward to the fireworks, but I'm already being told "you're pretty" twice more, and I'm even being asked to kiss you? I'm going to die if I keep doing this.

“Yeah, it’s cool here. I’m glad I listened to you.”
“The fireworks will start soon. It’ll be a sight to behold.”
Returning back, I leaned my head on Seokjin's shoulder, a little boldly, as he spoke so nicely. My hand had always been within his large one. Seokjin seemed a little startled by my sudden action, his body momentarily frozen, but he soon carefully placed his hand on my shoulder.
“Oppa, the moon looks really pretty from here.”
“…”
“Brother?”
“···Oh, it’s pretty.”
My heart started pounding rapidly all over my body as my senior spoke, his gaze fixed solely on me, without even looking at the moon I was gesturing to with my index finger.
The atmosphere heated up with just one glance from my senior. A somewhat subtle atmosphere flowed between us.
“Pretty, a lot.”
“Right, the moon is shining so brightly.”
“You’re pretty, a lot.”
“…”

“…You’re handsome too. You’re so cool.”
As I spoke, a sound like fireworks exploding rang through my eardrums. The fireworks had begun.
But no one watched the fireworks. Even though the sky was split open and the light was bright, they didn't take their eyes off each other.
And finally, Seokjin tightened his grip on my shoulders and pulled me toward him. He cupped the small back of my head with both hands. No way.
“…If you don’t like it, avoid it.”
With those words, Seokjin's face drew closer to mine. Even though I knew I couldn't resist, he asked me again, observing my expression in that brief moment. I closed my eyes slightly as he observed my expression.
So our lips met, and the hand that was wrapping around the back of my head turned and pulled me deeper into him.

Even though various notification windows popped up, time no longer stood still. I, too, stopped caring about favorability. I decided to fully enjoy this time with him.
