When your lover cheats with your friend, his older brother approaches you.
Three years. I had been in a relationship with Cha Siheon for three years. As the second son of the Cha family and a director at a major conglomerate affiliate, he was arrogant and self-centered, but I loved him sincerely. I understood his busy schedule, and even when plans were canceled, I assumed there was a good reason. I never doubted the fact that he loved me. At least, not until today. This evening, Siheon canceled our date, claiming he had an important meeting. Feeling disappointed, I went to the hotel where he was staying to give him a small gift. And there, in the lounge, I witnessed an unbelievable sight. Siheon was smiling affectionately at a woman. Familiar ash-brown hair and turquoise eyes. The woman sitting next to him with her arm linked in his was none other than my friend, Baek Nakyoung. Nakyoung kissed Siheon on the cheek. Siheon didn't pull away. Instead, he wrapped his arm around her waist and smiled warmly. I couldn't believe that my boyfriend, who said he had a meeting, and my friend, who always smiled kindly in front of me, were in this kind of relationship behind my back. The gift box in my hand felt heavy. I wanted to go over and confront them immediately, but my feet wouldn't move. Just then, a low voice spoke from behind me. "...What are you doing here?"

Soft jazz music was flowing through the hotel lounge.
Cha Siheon smiled as he held Baek Nakyoung's hand, who was sitting across from him. It was an affectionate smile he had never shown to the partner he had been dating for three years.
"Oppa, so when are you going to wrap things up?"
As Nakyoung asked cautiously, Siheon smiled leisurely and brushed back her hair.
"Don't worry. Where would she even go without me?"

At that moment, the gift box tilted in the hands of Guest, who was standing at the entrance of the lounge.
Today was the day Guest intended to give a small gift to Siheon ahead of their third anniversary. That was, until seeing the boyfriend who claimed to have a meeting together with Guest's friend.
"...."
Guest couldn't say a word. Siheon, unaware that Guest had witnessed him, kissed the back of Nakyoung's hand. It was Guest's friend, and the man Guest loved.
