"Do you like Pepero? I really like them, so I picked up a few on the way here."
"Thank you. But isn't it too much?"
"It's Pepero Day. You must be tired after finishing rehab, right? Let me feed you."
In the hospital room, I waited just for you to visit.
You, who came with Pepero and fed them to me one by one, still stand out vividly in my memory from that day.
I was never particularly fond of snacks.
But the Pepero you brought was sweeter and more delicious than anything else.
Continuing my pleasant relationship with Yeonho, I also increased interactions with those around him.
It wasn’t solely about becoming closer; I liked being able to learn things about him that I hadn’t known.
How Yeonho used to smile back then.
What he liked.
What has changed as he’s gotten older.
Since I was a friend, not family, there were aspects I could learn.
"Did you know? Yeonho had a crush on the math teacher who came for teaching practice when he was in middle school."
Of course, there were also times when I obtained such unexpected information.
Although it’s a past event, and Yeonho’s reaction made it abundantly clear he harbored no feelings about it, I couldn’t help but be bothered.
Thus, I became slightly closer to his friends and began to hear about such incidents.
I exchanged numbers with them, just in case.
Since I could always know Yeonho’s whereabouts via the app, it acted as an emergency contact network in case something happened and I couldn’t get in touch with him.
While I knew it was a bit much, I was always worried in the back of my mind.
I also occasionally saw not only friends but also Lee Heeseong oppa and Yoonjung unnie.
I listened to stories about Yeonho from them, but as both liked Yeonho so much, whenever we met, they bought me food and looked after me in various ways.
I also asked Lee Heeseong oppa to keep an eye on Yeonho, who was getting too absorbed in gaming until late lately.
I understand his enjoyment of gaming, but I wished he would understand my concern for his health.
Because I wanted him to be with me for a long time.
While he looked at me with those beautiful eyes.

Pepero Day, something we were experiencing for the first time in this life, was just around the corner.
Initially, I had considered making the Pepero myself.
But oppa objected.
"You're going to make it? Maybe not..."
"But it said it wasn’t that hard?"
"It’s not that your cooking is tasteless, but it's always lacking something. Give up on cooking."
"Ugh~"
I always follow recipes. However, condemning my hands that can only make it decently tasty but not delicious, I gave up.
Of course, it's not utterly tasteless, and Yeonho will surely be pleased. But since we needed a lot of Pepero for the game we were planning to play this time we met, I decided to postpone making homemade Pepero until the future.
Therefore, I bought all sorts of Pepero for him, who loves snacks so much. There were quite a few Pepero that made me wonder, "Did this exist?" while I was purchasing them.
Oppa was indeed startled by the larger-than-expected amount when he saw it, but I wasn't planning to make him eat it all.

[ Han Yeonho: Want to go to the amusement park this weekend? ]
Thanks to an unexpected date invitation, I was excitedly awaiting the weekend.
Compared to the past, he has been increasingly taking the initiative, naturally leading our dates, gradually resembling his former self.
On the contrary, I felt a bit more childish, as if I had regressed to his age.
And I thought that was nice, too.
After all, we were going to walk through days like this together, our steps aligning with each other in this way.
I invited him home and we played the Pepero game countless times.
No.
We kissed under the pretext of playing the Pepero game.
Although by now, even though a kiss like this was something we could just do, it was Pepero Day after all.
Pretending to lick the chocolate smeared on his lips, we slowly escalated our intimacy a bit more sensually.
In addition to the simple Pepero game, I also teased him while he closed his eyes.
I placed my finger in his mouth.
And then, my lips.
When he sucked on my finger, thinking it was a snack, and used his tongue, my body warmed, and I got a bit carried away by his transition to a kiss even though he realized these were my lips.
Even while smiling, my heart felt painfully sweet.
But did he know how I felt?
After finishing our small games and explaining each kiss scene from the comic book I had borrowed from my sister to create a wish coupon,
He kissed the back of my hand.
Next, he gently bit my earlobe while I kept my eyes closed.
He fulfilled each of the things I wanted from him.
Up to just the final step.
"Dear customer, the next service is scheduled for tomorrow, so..."
I almost felt heartbroken by him, making me all impatient and then cheekily saying something like that.
But still.
"We did a lot today, so I just want to hold you. Is that okay?"
Saying something so cheesy, I could no longer voice any complaints.
While receiving kisses from him was nice, having him embrace me with his entire body like this was even more wonderful.
As if we had become one.
So much so, that I wished we could stay like this forever.

On the way to the amusement park the next day.
We took pictures together from the subway station, imitating a kiss scene from a comic book.
At first, Yeonho was quite shy, perhaps because he was conscious of the surrounding gazes.
Even though it was merely an act, his posture, leaning an arm against the wall and intently gazing at me from up close, was once again enchanting.
There was a part of me that wished for a breath-stealing, potent kiss right then.
But the focus was more on taking pictures today.
I had to consistently update his profile with our photos.
To ensure that nobody would even think of surpassing it.
"My profile picture now is really good too. Heena, you look really pretty in it.."
"Phone."
"Here."
I assertively snatched the phone from him, who was hesitating to set it as his profile picture, perhaps out of shyness, and set it up.
I don’t want to do things he dislikes, but I hoped he'd forgive me just this once.
The mere imagination of someone giving Yeonho attention was enough to unsettle my heart.
Even after arriving at the amusement park, we spent a lot of time taking pictures together.
Yeonho, donning puppy ears and giving an awkward wink beside me, was so cute that I wanted to bite him.
And your subtly anxious demeanor when we got on a ride because you're scared of heights was just endearing to me.
I knew you were scared of heights, but you, who loved amusement parks, would surely be content with just being together.
I felt the same.
"If you’re scared, just look at me."
Even if you're not scared, I wish you would only look at me.
I wish I was the only one reflected in your eyes.

"Yeonho?"
"Uh...haa... Yeonho... hug me tighter..."
After calming down a bit and taking a photo, just like how you're tightly holding me and kissing me now.
Only desire me.
"Isn’t that princess pretty?"
"Really? I think you’re much prettier."
Even if they’re empty words, it's okay.
Always respond like that, just like you did to my question during the parade.
"You're going to be family too, sooner or later."
Even so, I wish you would be a bit more restrained with such unrestrained utterances, unconscious of their impact.
Even though they were happy and beautiful words, it became unbearable for me.
While considering him, who might be scared, I wandered around, choosing things that would be easy for him to ride.
Yeonho loves to snack, so we also bought and shared various items sold around us.
Although I don't usually enjoy these kinds of foods, I liked them because I was eating them with him.
Since there was a little time gap until the evening parade, we decided to take another comic book concept photo during the interval.
A picture where I was on his back.
Nonchalantly, he sat down and leaned his back towards me. Pushing aside my worrying heart, wondering if he might strain, I leaned onto his back.
Contrary to the chilly weather, his warm back was so comfortable it felt like I might fall asleep.
Eventually, he gently lifted my body, holding onto my legs.
"...Wow."
"What’s wrong? Am I heavy?"
"No, nothing. You’re not heavy at all."
I was relieved by his words, whether they were sincere or not. Just as I verified that his posture, holding me up, was stable and was about to take a picture, a sudden moist emotion eroded my heart due to the touch I felt on my thigh.
This hand, gripping my thigh strongly so I wouldn’t fall, what if it had held a slightly different place?
"Yeonho, I'm sorry to say this while you're lifting me, but the part you're holding feels a bit painful."
"Oh, does it? Should I put you down for a second?"
A bit forced, but I still spoke to him.
"No, could you support a different part instead?"
"A bit more inward... I think it'll be fine if you hold onto my butt."
I said it lightly, but my heart was still pounding as I spoke. Although I always wished for more physical contact, such moments had been rare. Just like the time I asked him at the beach.
The moment Yeonho hesitated at my words, and then placed his hand on my butt.
"Ahh.."
A moan escaped me unwittingly. His warm hand was pleasurable yet embarrassing, and part of me was also worried.
His hand touched my underwear, how embarrassing.
Was I too explicit?
He won’t think I'm perverted, right?
He won’t think I’m too fleshy?
Despite the insecurities rampaging through my mind, my mouth involuntarily opened again.
"A little more..."
"You can hold on tighter if you want..."
Ignoring all embarrassment, my true feelings were laid bare just like that.
However, whether to be thankful or regretful, Yeonho, unable to persist, quickly put me down after taking the picture.
With a heart wondering what he might be thinking, I caressed his arm and timidly looked at his face, seeing an expression that seemed somewhat regretful.
Realizing Yeonho might have felt the same way as me, I whispered to him with a grin.
"You can touch me whenever you want."
"All of me belongs to you, Yeonho."
Everything is yours.
Of course, it might be a bit embarrassing, but still, anytime. If you want it.
I wish you would want it.

Before leaving the amusement park, together we watched the final evening parade and laser show.
Suddenly, he adorably pinched my cheek, and we took one more photo.
"Next year... might be tough. The year after that, let's go somewhere bigger. Somewhere with a Ferris wheel."
"Abroad?"
"That sounds good too."
"How about Disneyland? I’ve always wanted to go there."
"Deal! Then the next amusement park we visit will be that one!"
We promised for the next time.
Later, once we’ve stepped out of our child-like boundaries,
When I, and you, can share all the things we regretted not doing without hesitation,
Let’s embark on another journey, just the two of us.
