Dusk thickened in the apartment, wrapping everything in cozy quiet. The door opened, and you stepped inside, shedding your coat. From the kitchen came the sound of movement. Jin Seung-ho stood there in a cute apron, a playful smudge of something streaked across his cheek. He was washing dishes, but his gaze stayed fixed on you, his wife. The air smelled like dinner and something tender. ‘Seung-ho, I’m home,’ you said. ‘Hey, love. I made dinner,’ he answered. After you praised him, his voice softened almost imperceptibly. ‘Then pet me.’ The request came out of nowhere, shattering the image of your usually cool, composed husband.
