Chapter 38

But as the waiter returned with our food, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the back of my mind. Something wasn't right, something was off, and try as I might, I couldn't shake the feeling that our happiness was about to be shattered by forces beyond our control.

As we sat down to eat, I pushed aside my doubts and fears, determined to savor this moment with Wonyoung.

As I nervously extended the small box towards Wonyoung, my heart thudded against my ribcage like a drumbeat of anticipation. "Hey, I got you something," I managed to say, my voice a little shaky with excitement.

Wonyoung's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she accepted the box from me, a soft smile playing on her lips. "What's this?" she asked, her voice filled with warmth.

I couldn't help but grin as I watched her carefully unwrap the delicate package. The moment she laid eyes on the necklace nestled inside, her breath caught in her throat, and I held mine, waiting for her reaction.

"It's stunning, Yujin," she breathed, her eyes shining with admiration as she delicately lifted the pendant from its velvet cushion.

Relief flooded through me, mingled with a surge of joy. "I'm so glad you like it," I murmured, unable to tear my gaze away from her.

But then, as I met her eyes, I noticed a shift in her expression—a softness, a vulnerability, that tugged at my heartstrings.

"Yujin," she began, her voice barely above a whisper, "you mean everything to me. You've been there for me through thick and thin, and I don't know where I'd be without you."

My breath caught in my throat as her words washed over me, filling me with a warmth I'd never known. "Wonyoung," I whispered, my voice thick with emotion, "I feel the same way about you. You're my world."

And then, in that moment of raw vulnerability, I knew what I had to do. Taking a deep breath, I gathered my courage and spoke from the depths of my heart. "Wonyoung," I said, my voice steady despite the butterflies in my stomach,

"I want to be more than just friends. I want you to be my girlfriend."

Silence hung in the air, heavy with anticipation, as we waited for her response. And then, with a smile that lit up her entire face, Wonyoung nodded.

"Yes, Yujin," she said, her voice soft but filled with conviction.

"I would love to be your girlfriend."

Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I pulled her into a tight embrace, holding her close as if I never wanted to let her go. In that moment, as our hearts beat as one, I knew that this was just the beginning of our love story.

With a sense of wonder and gratitude coursing through my veins, I leaned in and pressed my lips to hers, sealing our newfound commitment with a sweet, tender kiss.

And as we pulled away, breathless and giddy with excitement. With Wonyoung by my side, I was ready to take on the world.

Meanwhile, Yena and Yuri, stationed discreetly nearby, observed the unfolding scene with amusement and delight. They exchanged knowing glances, their lips curling into mischievous smiles as they whispered to each other.

"Looks like our little plan worked like a charm," Yena remarked, her eyes twinkling with satisfaction.

Yuri nodded in agreement, her gaze never leaving the couple in front of them. "They make such a cute pair, don't they? Who would've thought that Yujin would be such a romantic?"

Yena chuckled softly, her laughter echoing in the quiet night air. "It just goes to show that love can surprise you when you least expect it. And hey, it's nice to see Yujin finally stepping up and making her move."

Their conversation was interrupted by a sudden burst of laughter from the couple, followed by the soft sound of kisses exchanged. Yena and Yuri exchanged amused glances, their smiles widening at the sight.

"Looks like they're having a good time," Yuri observed, her tone filled with affection.

Yena nodded, her eyes sparkling with fondness. "Yeah, they definitely are. And hey, we played a small part in bringing them together. That's something to be proud of, don't you think?"

Yuri grinned, her heart swelling with happiness. "Definitely. And who knows? Maybe one day, we'll be celebrating their wedding too."

As they continued to watch, Yena couldn't resist making a playful comment. "You know, Yuri, if we ever get tired of being undercover matchmakers, we could start our own matchmaking agency."

Yuri chuckled, nodding in agreement. "That's not a bad idea. We could call it 'Love Incognito'—where love is always in disguise."

Yena grinned, playing along with the idea. "And instead of cupid's arrows, we'll use stealthy glances and secret signals to bring people together."

Their laughter filled the air, blending seamlessly with the gentle breeze as they enjoyed the camaraderie of their impromptu stakeout.

"And who knows," Yena continued, her eyes twinkling with mischief, "maybe we'll become the go-to matchmakers for all the undercover romantics out there."

Yuri laughed, imagining the possibilities. "Imagine the testimonials: 'Thanks to Love Incognito, I found my soulmate without even knowing it!'"

Yena's eyes widened in mock surprise, and she nudged Yuri playfully. "Wait, are you telling me we're not just partners in crime-fighting, but partners in love too?"

Yuri laughed, feigning offense. "Of course! Didn't you get the memo?"

Their banter continued, filled with playful jabs and affectionate teasing, as they reveled in the comfort of their shared bond.

"Looks like we've got some competition in the romance department," Yena remarked, gesturing towards Yujin and Wonyoung, who were lost in their own world of love and laughter.

Yuri smiled, her gaze softening as she watched the couple interact. "They're adorable, aren't they? Just like us."

Yena leaned in, pressing a tender kiss to Yuri's cheek. "Even more so."
