Heaven's Cloud

Because we can't go wrong

The two walked quietly through the rain back home.

My clothes were heavy, soaking wet with the falling rain, but it wasn't just my body that was heavy.

As we walked in silence, something welled up in my heart, as if it were about to spill out.

Jiyeon stood at the front door, unable to cross the threshold. Seungkwan stopped taking off his shoes and turned to look at her.

"Why aren't you coming in?"

Jiyeon slightly wrapped her arms around herself and avoided eye contact.

김지연

"...I, I'm really wet... Can I come in..."

At those words, Seungkwan took a short breath and approached,

He gently wrapped his arm around her shoulder without saying anything and opened the door.

승관

"It's okay. Go wash up first. If you don't have any clothes to change into, I'll give you mine."

After saying that, Seung-kwan went into the room and came out holding a comfortable short-sleeved shirt and pants. Ji-yeon quietly bowed her head as she received the clothes.

Jiyeon's mind was in turmoil.

He was a being that was not wet by rain, and he drifted in an intangible state, cut off from the world.

But after meeting Seung-kwan, I felt his body heat and the rain started to seep in.

And now, even my clothes were soaking wet. I wondered why, but I couldn't figure out why.

There was only one feeling left: that the change was possible because Seung-Kwan was by her side.

***

After finishing their shower, the two people sat facing each other quietly in the living room.

Seungkwan offered her warm tea, and Jiyeon carefully accepted the cup.

승관

"If people don't come that often, they usually just go home. What if they stay there?"

Jiyeon quietly lowered her head.

김지연

"...But, you told me to wait..."

승관

"No, that's why..."

김지연

"We can't go wrong..."

Seung-kwan was speechless at Jiyeon's words. His eyes briefly wavered.

Then, he finally covered his face with both hands and collapsed to the floor.

승관

"...I'm so sorry. If you hadn't come, I almost lost it... Really..."

Jiyeon was startled and carefully bent down, reached out, then hesitated.

At that moment, Seung-kwan raised his head slightly, and their eyes met.

There was no word.

In the stillness, something warm and gentle was conveyed through each other's eyes.

승관

"Ah! Food, you should eat. Aren't you hungry?!"

Seung-kwan suddenly stood up and spoke, and Ji-yeon also stood up in surprise.

He quickly turned on the delivery app and started selecting the menu.

김지연

"I have to buy it... but I can't buy it..."

Jiyeon spoke while observing the situation, and Seungkwan looked at her with a smile on his face.

승관

"It's okay, I'll order what I want to eat today. And Jiyeon,

승관

"Write it down carefully, because I'll take care of it all when I remember. Including interest."

김지연

"...yes."

Jiyeon nodded with a small smile, and Seungkwan also smiled and turned his gaze.

And so that night, the long day came to an end.
