CHAPTER XIX ♡

In a city in Korea, amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life, Meinny felt an emptiness in her heart. It had been almost a month since Jay left for work there, and although they communicated every day, nothing could replace his presence. Each morning, she opened her window, hoping to see Jay walking towards her, but all she found was the empty street.
As evening fell and the sun began to set, Meinny returned to her workspace after a long day. A pile of documents lay on her desk, but her thoughts were consumed by the one person who constantly occupied her mind. She sat down and picked up her phone, opening their messaging app. Looking at their photos together brought a smile to her face, even though it was tinged with a painful longing.
Meinny: (whispering to herself) “I hope you’re doing well over there, Jay.”
As she tried to refocus on her work, she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. She looked up, and it felt as though time had stopped. Standing in the doorway was the one person she missed the most—Jay. His bright smile seemed to illuminate the dim room.
Jay: (grinning widely) “Did you miss me, baby?”
Meinny's eyes widened in disbelief. In an instant, she stood and ran towards Jay. They embraced tightly, as if filling the void in each other’s hearts.
Meinny: “Jay! You’re here? I don’t even know what to say!”
Jay wrapped his arms around her with love, feeling the intensity of the longing they had both endured. He gently patted her back, trying to calm her swirling emotions.
Jay: “You don’t have to say anything. Just feel this.” (He closed his eyes, burying his face in Meinny’s hair, inhaling the familiar scent he had missed.)
Meinny returned the embrace, pressing her face against Jay’s chest. Each heartbeat felt like a beautiful melody, signaling just how much she had missed this moment.
Meinny: “I miss you every day. Everything feels empty without you.”
Jay tilted Meinny’s face up slightly so they could gaze into each other’s eyes. Their looks locked, filled with countless unspoken words.
Jay: “I miss you too. Every second I was there, all I could think about was how much you mean to me.”
Then, without breaking their gaze, Jay lowered his head and planted a soft kiss on Meinny’s forehead, making her feel warm and at ease.
Meinny: “That kiss… it feels like all my longing has been fulfilled.”
Jay: (smiling) “And this is just the beginning.” (He leaned in and kissed Meinny’s lips, gentle yet full of emotion, as if expressing all the feelings he had kept inside.)
Their kiss deepened, and time seemed to stand still. Meinny felt each heartbeat, every warmth that Jay radiated. She wrapped her arms around his neck, while Jay guided her hand to his cheek.
Meinny: (in a soft voice) “I don’t want to lose this moment again. You mean everything to me.”
Jay: “And you are the reason I came back. I want us to be together, no matter the distance or time.”
They both fell silent for a moment, savoring each other’s warmth. Jay then moved his hand to caress Meinny’s face gently.
Jay: “You know, every night I look at the stars and wish I could return to you quickly. Nothing means more than this.”
Meinny: (looking deeply into Jay’s eyes) “I feel the same way. Every star seems to remind me of you and all our beautiful memories.”
Jay: “And now we’re here. I promise I will always be there for you. Nothing can separate us.”
Hearing this made Meinny’s heart flutter. She nodded, understanding the depth of their love.
Meinny: “Promise, right? A promise to always be there for each other, no matter what happens.”
Jay: “Promise. I will always fight for us.” (He added with conviction.)
After a moment, they exchanged smiles. Jay then pulled Meinny closer, resting their foreheads together. The moment felt incredibly intimate, as if they existed in their own world.
Meinny: “I want to know how your days were over there. Are you okay?”
Jay: “A lot has happened, but everything felt dull without you by my side. I’ve been working hard to come back and be with you again.”
Meinny: “I’m so proud of you. Even though distance separates us, I know how hard you’re working.”
Jay felt the passion in Meinny’s voice. He gently lifted her chin and kissed her lips again, this time deeper, as if trying to convey all the longing and love he had bottled up.
Jay: “You are my inspiration. Every time I feel tired, I imagine your face, your smile, and all our memories.”
Meinny: (shivering at his words) “You know, being with you again feels like a dream. All this longing has finally paid off.”
They gazed at each other, and in the silence, Meinny lifted her hand to gently stroke Jay’s face.
Meinny: “I want us to create more memories. I don’t want to be stuck in this longing.”
Jay: “I agree. Let’s make this time meaningful. We can explore new places together.”
Meinny: “That’s a great idea! There are so many beautiful places I want to show you.”
Jay smiled widely. He could feel Meinny’s excitement, which made his heart race.
Jay: “We can start right here. Why don’t we celebrate our reunion? I have something planned.”
Meinny: “What is it?”
Jay pulled out a small box from his pocket and opened it, revealing a bracelet engraved with their names.
Jay: “I want this to be a symbol of our love. Even though distance separates us, our love will always bind us together.”
Meinny was touched, tears of joy welling in her eyes. She took the bracelet and put it on her wrist.
Meinny: “I love you, Jay. Nothing can change that.”
Jay: “And I love you more than words can express. Let’s face all of this together.”
After sharing that beautiful moment, they embraced once more, feeling the warmth of one another. That day, they realized that their love was an unshakeable force capable of overcoming any challenges that lay ahead.
That night, they took a walk outside under the moonlight illuminating the streets. Meinny held Jay’s hand, feeling how warm it was when their hands intertwined. They shared stories, laughter, and exchanged loving glances.
Meinny: “Do you remember when we first met? How we argued about that movie?”
Jay: (laughing) “Oh, don’t remind me. I felt foolish for losing that debate!”
Meinny: “But that was the start of everything. From that moment, I knew you were someone special.”
Jay: “And I’m grateful every day that we met. You’ve changed my life in ways I never imagined.”
As they walked, Jay suddenly stopped and pulled Meinny into his embrace again. He gazed deeply into her eyes.
Jay: “Meinny, every second with you is a priceless treasure. I want us to always be together.”
Meinny: “Me too, Jay. I don’t want to miss you again.”
They kissed again, this time deeper and filled with emotion, merging in a powerful wave of love. They knew that whatever happened, they would always be there for each other.
After enjoying a beautiful moment outside, Jay and Meinny strolled along a path adorned with twinkling lights. The cool evening air set a romantic atmosphere, and Meinny felt a surge of excitement within her heart.
Jay: "I've reserved a table at my favorite restaurant. They serve incredible dishes."
Meinny: "You really know how to treat me, don’t you? I can’t wait!"
They arrived at a cozy little restaurant, exuding an intimate ambiance. After settling at a table by the window, Jay ordered a selection of signature dishes. While waiting, they chatted and laughed, reminiscing fondly.
Meinny: "Do you remember when we tried cooking together? Our kitchen was a disaster!"
Jay: (laughing) "Oh yes, and I recall how we ended up ordering pizza after all that effort."
They both chuckled, reflecting on moments that had strengthened their bond. When the food arrived, its enticing aroma filled the air.
Jay: "Bon appétit! This is all to celebrate us."
They clinked their glasses together, gazing at each other with love in their eyes.
Meinny: "To us! And all the beautiful memories yet to come."
Each bite was delicious, but more importantly, Jay’s presence made the meal even more delightful. They exchanged stories about their daily lives, sharing hopes and dreams for their future together.
Meinny: "I still remember when we talked about our dreams. What’s your biggest aspiration?"
Jay looked at Meinny, his smile broadening.
Jay: "My dream is to have a life filled with love and happiness with you. I want us to embark on adventures together, exploring the world."
Meinny: (shivering at his words) "I want that too. There’s so much we can do together."
After enjoying dessert, the atmosphere grew even warmer. Their conversation became more intimate, their eyes locked onto one another.
Jay: "Before we head home, there’s something I want you to know. Every moment we spend together is precious to me."
Meinny: "I feel the same. Your love makes me a better person, Jay."
Once they finished, Jay settled the bill, and they rose from the table. As they stepped outside, the night deepened, and stars began to twinkle in the sky.
Jay: "I’ll walk you home. The night isn’t over yet, right?"
Meinny: "Of course! I still want to spend time with you."
On the way home, they chatted about simple things, from their favorite music to future plans. Jay gently held Meinny’s hand, offering comfort and security.
Upon arriving at her apartment, the atmosphere inside felt warm and inviting. Meinny turned to Jay.
Meinny: "Thank you for tonight. Everything was perfect."
Jay: "It’s not over yet. I have one more surprise for you."
Meinny: "What is it?"
Jay pulled out a small box from his pocket and opened it, revealing a heart-shaped pendant necklace.
Jay: "This is for you, baby. A reminder that my heart will always belong to you, no matter the distance."
Meinny was touched, tears of joy brimming in her eyes.
Meinny: "Jay, this is beautiful! I love you."
Jay helped her fasten the necklace, and as the pendant hung around her neck, they locked eyes, filled with affection.
Jay: "Remember, no matter what happens, we will always be together."
They embraced tightly, and in that moment, Meinny felt the depth of their relationship. They knew that their love could conquer any challenge.
Meinny: "I don’t want to let go of this moment."
Jay: "Neither do I. Let’s create more memories like this."
With love, Jay kissed Meinny’s forehead and then lifted her chin to meet her gaze.
Jay: "Until next time, darling. Goodnight."
Meinny: "Goodnight, Jay. I’ll miss you."
After bidding each other farewell, Meinny stepped into her apartment with a full heart. That night was a testament that true love always finds a way, and they were ready to face any challenges together.
