“Why aren't you responding? You won't like me when I become fat?”

“No, not at all. I like you no matter what. You'd look pretty either way,” he finally replied.

“Even if you don't mean it, it feels good to hear that.” Yiyoung jokingly glared at him. “Then, I eat a lot, and won't deny the food!”

Muyeol smiled and kissed her on the head. Yiyoung's mood was always lifted when he kissed her. It let her know that she was loved.

The two took a bus to the mountain after they heard that the parking lot there was always packed. After they got off, they followed the horde of people walking toward the mountain.

“There are quite a lot of people.” “There are a lot of people here.”

“Yeah.”

Muyeol and Yiyoung became a part of the crowd. As they went up, they saw that the road split into two paths. One was so people could walk around the mountain, and the other path led to the top of the mountain. The two of them took the first path so they could walk around.

“The weather looks like it's going to change,” Yiyoung commented.

Muyeol looked up at the sky. The weather seemed fine when they left their house, it seemed like it would rain soon. They could smell the rain in the wind. He asked, “Should we just go home then?”

“No, when it starts to rain, then we can head back. The air here is different.”

It really was different; it was cool and fresh, feeling like their lungs had been cleared. It was fun to walk around the mountain, with the fair amount of hills that occupied it. But then it started raining, and they couldn't continue anymore.

“Let's head back.”

“Okay.”

They'd managed to walk a considerable distance, and could enjoy the feel of stepping on the ground.

Muyeol took off his jacket and moved to cover Yiyoung's head, but she avoided it, laughing hard as she said, “It's been a while since I've felt the rain. I don't even remember the last time.”

Yiyoung jumped in circles, her arms wide open like a child. “This is so exciting! I feel like a kid right now.”

Muyeol watched as she walked around with a grin. All the other people were busy trying to avoid the rain, but here she was, enjoying it instead. He found it nice how she knew how to enjoy nature.

“Come here.” Yiyoung reached out to him. “Let's feel the rain together.”

Muyeol took her hand.

After climbing down the mountain, the two went to a noodle restaurant and ordered noodle bowls and kimchi pancakes. The food was delicious, and since Yiyoung had enjoyed the meal so much, Muyeol ordered another bowl of noodles for her. Once she was done eating, the pair moved to a nearby cafe. They chose a table from where they could look outside the window, and sat down next to each other.

Yiyoung stared out into the rain and muttered, “I loved the feeling of the rain pouring on me. It's going to be a great memory.”

Muyeol watched her silently.

“We'll be good parents in the future, right?” she asked.

He smiled at her.

“We would be able to make our child laugh a lot, right?” she questioned again.

Muyeol gently held her shoulder and hugged her.

“It'll be my first time as a mother, so I'm scared. But I'll try my best, and I'll be relying on you.” Yiyoung turned and hugged him back before whispering, “It's been seven weeks.”

Muyeol hugged her even more tightly. Determined, he said, “Our child will definitely be happier than us. Trust me.”

“I will.”

He stroked her back. “I'm happier than before.”

“Me too.”
