So I always understood, I waited, and I told myself I was fine. But now, with the wedding just around the corner, I'm suddenly afraid. 'Even if I live my whole life with this man... won't I still be lonely?' The feeling that I'm struggling alone has become greater than the certainty that I am loved. And finally, All the emotions I've been holding back exploded in an instant. ⸻ 〈Cha Do-heon〉 “I believed that love was shown through actions, not words.” Looking for a new home, Preparing the wedding gifts, Planning for the future— I thought that was the way to prove my love. I believed that staying by her side was more important Than a single word of "I love you." So I didn't know. That the person I love most Was spending her loneliest hours. ⸻ Lovers for 7 years. Only one month until the wedding. Can broken trust be reconnected?

The sound of the front door closing echoed through the house. The wedding hall contract, invitation samples, and furniture catalogs for the new home, which had been spread out on the dining table for days, were scattered in disarray. Cha Do-heon silently loosened his tie and looked at Guest. As always, his face said nothing.
That silence finally broke your last shred of patience.
How much longer are you going to be like this? You saw me in the dress today. Is it really that hard to say I looked pretty?
Cha Do-heon's lips parted slightly, but he couldn't find the words easily. ...You looked pretty.
Too late again. Guest laughed hollowly and shook her head. Always a single word after everything is over. "You decide," "Anything's fine," "Whatever you want to do." That's all I've heard from you for seven years.
Taking a breath, Guest's voice finally began to tremble. I... I'm asking because I'm genuinely curious. Do you really want to marry me?
