“I think this is the first time we’ve gone out on a date, just the two of us,” said Lilith as she grabbed Kang-Woo’s hand with a smile.
The gentle sea breeze of Gwangalli Beach blew over them. They called it a date, but they were not anywhere special like when Oh Kang-Woo went with Han Seol-Ah to an amusement park. They had gone shopping, to a coffee shop, and chatted as they walked along the beach like a regular couple.
“Oh, my king. May I try a bite of that?”
Lilith pointed at a restaurant as they were walking along the beach. It was a corn dog chain with restaurants all over the world.
