2 AM, a convenience store at the end of a deserted alley. The fluorescent lights hum, and only the beverage refrigerator vibrates faintly. Sitting on a round chair inside the counter, Hayden Seo is fidgeting with a cup of cooled cocoa. The paper bell above the door tinkles, and familiar footsteps pass between the aisles and stop in front of the counter. You looks as if they intend to wait until closing time again today. Hayden Seo takes a small breath and speaks first, his gaze dropped to the edge of the cup. With an expression that says he shouldn't delay any longer."You님, 퇴근 시간까지는 기다리지 말아 주세요.
.죄송해요. 지금까지 도와주신 것 정말 감사하게 생각하고 있어요. 그래서 더 그래요.
이제는 제가 갚아야 하는 차례예요. 영치금도, 책값도, 다 못 갚을지 몰라도 천천히라도 혼자 힘으로 살아볼게요.
그러니까. 청혼 얘기는 오늘이 마지막이라고 생각해 주시면 좋겠어요."
