"You wait here, or do you want me to make a drink?" Mei asked while gently caressing her boyfriend's hand.
"You just go shower, baby. I can wait for the drink," Jay replied with a sweet smile.
"Alright. I won't keep you waiting long," Mei said as she walked toward her room.
Meinny had just finished showering, feeling refreshed by the water flowing over her body. Her wet hair dripped softly onto her shoulders, and she felt more invigorated than before. Meinny thought about the beautiful moments she would spend with her boyfriend, Jay, who was waiting in the living room.
After drying off with a soft towel, she headed to the kitchen. She planned to make a refreshing drink for both of them since they had been active all day.
Meinny opened the fridge, noticing several fresh oranges that still looked shiny. Without hesitation, she decided to make fresh orange juice. With enthusiasm, she washed the oranges and began slicing them. The sound of the knife on the cutting board seemed to sing a cheerful tune, brightening her mood.
As the oranges were juiced, the sweet aroma filled the kitchen. Meinny couldn’t help but smile, imagining how happy Jay would be when he saw the drink she had prepared. She remembered how Jay always said her orange juice was the best, even though she only used a simple juicer.
While waiting for the juice to be ready, she decided to prepare some light snacks. She took out bread, strawberry jam, and a bit of cheese. This combination had always been their favorite. As she arranged all the ingredients on the table, Meinny's mind wandered to the beautiful memories they shared—moments filled with laughter and stories, even in simplicity.
Once everything was ready, she carried the tray with the orange juice and snacks to the living room. Jay looked relaxed, sitting on the sofa with a book in his hands. His face seemed serious, but when Meinny appeared, his signature smile lit up his face.
"Wow, this looks delicious!" Jay exclaimed, setting his book aside.
Meinny smiled proudly. "I made fresh orange juice and some snacks. I hope you like it!"
"I will definitely love it, baby!" Jay replied enthusiastically as he reached for the juice glass. He took the first sip, and his eyes sparkled. "So refreshing! You really are a pro at making juice." He said excitedly, taking another sip.
They began sharing the snacks, discussing their activities from the day. Meinny felt happy watching Jay enjoy every bite and sip. The atmosphere in the living room grew warmer with the laughter and light conversation flowing between them.

After enjoying the fresh orange juice and snacks, Meinny and Jay decided to continue their time together by watching a movie. Jay grabbed the TV remote and opened the streaming platform.
"Are we watching something light or romantic?" Jay asked while scrolling through the movie list.
"Romantic, please," Meinny replied with a smile. "I need a bit of love drama."
Jay nodded and began searching for a film. "How about we watch La La Land? I’ve heard a lot of good things about it."
"Agreed! I love the music," Meinny said enthusiastically.
After selecting the movie, they both sat back on the sofa. Meinny rested her head on Jay's shoulder, feeling his warmth. The movie started, and the beautiful music immediately filled the living room.
As the story unfolded, they were absorbed in the ups and downs of the romantic tale. Every scene stirred emotions, and they shared laughs as the characters on screen navigated their lives.
"Imagine if we were in a world like that," Jay said while looking at Meinny. "With music and dancing everywhere."
"That would be fun! But maybe we can only dance in our living room," Meinny teased.
Jay smiled. "Then we should do that after this movie, baby..."
Meinny looked at Jay with a loving gaze. "I love the way you think."
The film continued, and the romantic moments between the characters began to touch their hearts. When a romantic song played, Jay gently took Meinny's hand.
"Baby..." he said, "I want us to always be like this. Enjoying little moments together."
With a look full of love, Meinny replied, "I feel the same, Jay. Being with you is a precious gift to me."
They gazed at each other, and without realizing it, the atmosphere between them grew warmer. Jay leaned closer, and Meinny felt her heartbeat quicken. Gently, Jay lifted Meinny's chin, looking deeply into her eyes.
"Do you know you are the reason I smile every day?" Jay whispered.
Meinny smiled, feeling a soft touch in her heart. "You are the same, Jay. Every moment with you makes my life more colorful."
Then, Jay kissed Meinny softly, full of feeling. They both lost themselves in that moment, sensing an unspoken closeness.
As the movie went on, they didn’t just enjoy the music but also the warmth between them. Every touch, every glance, strengthened the bond of love they shared.
After a while, they returned their focus to the screen. However, with each song that played, they whispered sweet nothings and shared little laughs, creating their own small world amidst the story unfolding.
When the movie ended, Jay turned off the TV and looked at Meinny. "That was amazing. I loved the movie, but I love this moment with you even more."
"Me too," Meinny replied, looking at him with gratitude. "Let's make more beautiful memories like this."
Jay nodded, and gently he embraced Meinny. They both knew that behind the simplicity of that moment, there was a strong and irreplaceable love.
