Episode 07: "That Night in Greece; I wanted you to have it..."

Start from the beginning
                                    

Their interaction, although one-sided in terms of romantic feelings, adds a touch of warmth to the cool night. The ship sails on, carrying stories of unspoken emotions and budding romances under its sails.


Meanwhile, after his performance, Yeol makes his way around the decks looking for Mi Cha, his eyes search for her. When he finally spots her, he sees her laughing with Claudio. A pang of jealousy hits him, but it's quickly overshadowed by concern when he notices the empty beer cans by her side.

He approaches them, his pace quickening. "Mi Cha, Claudio," he greets, his voice steady despite the whirlwind of emotions inside him.

Claudio looks up, his friendly smile fading as he takes in Yeol's serious expression. "Yeol," he greets, his gaze shifting between the two.

But Yeol's eyes are solely on Mi Cha. "Are you okay?" he asks, the worry clear in his voice.

"I'm fine,..." she assures him, her voice softer than usual.

Feeling the shift in atmosphere, Claudio rises from his seat. "I should get back to the kitchen," he says, his tone casual despite the tension. He offers Mi Cha a comforting smile before heading off, though for a second he's hesitant to leave, but he did, he felt like he must; leaving the pair in a bubble of silence.

With Claudio's departure, the air grows heavy with unspoken words and suppressed feelings. The jovial laughter that once filled the space is replaced with a silence that speaks volumes, the tension between Yeol and Mi Cha palpable.

The distant chatter from the dining area and the soft lapping of waves against the ship's hull fade into the background, leaving only the two of them in their silent bubble. They become acutely aware of each other's presence, their shared silence speaking volumes.

Breaking the silence, Yeol turns to Mi Cha. "Why didn't you come to watch my set?" he asks, his voice laced with concern.

Mi Cha looks at him, her gaze steady. "I was afraid," she confesses, her voice barely above a whisper. "I was afraid of getting too attached to your music, to you. It feels so good, it feels like a dream. I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up someday."

Her words hang in the air, a poignant confession that leaves Yeol speechless. The conversation, filled with unspoken emotions and concerns, takes on a more serious and introspective tone. Despite the heaviness of the moment, there's an underlying current of mutual understanding and care, a testament to the deep bond that has formed between them.



The next day – in Greece;
As the cruise ship docks in the picturesque port of Greece, Yeol and Mi Cha find themselves standing at the ship's edge, their eyes taking in the breath-taking view. The sparkling blue waters, the quaint white-washed buildings clinging to the hillsides, and the vibrant hum of life that radiates from the city - it's a sight that leaves them both in awe.

Stepping onto Greek soil, they're immediately enveloped by the warm, welcoming energy of the country. The lively chatter of locals, the inviting aroma of Greek cuisine wafting from nearby cafes, the brilliant sun casting a golden glow on everything - it all adds to the charm of their new adventure.

Yeol turns to Mi Cha, his eyes reflecting the excitement of the moment. "Let's explore and enjoy?" he asks, offering his hand to her.

Mi Cha, her heart fluttering at his gesture, takes his hand. "Shall we?," she smile as she replies, her voice filled with anticipation. Their fingers intertwine, a silent testament to their growing connection.
