Seulgi's P.O.V.
After our long and memorable trip to France, we are now finally back to Korea. At the plane, the producers told us that we have at least one or two episodes left before this 'fake' marriage ends and unfortunately, our time on this show will end. By then, a new couple will be introduced as the next participants of this show.
Since our time here is already limited, I wanted our last date to be special. Yes, we did go on a lot of dates on this show but I still want to make her last date with me special. Who knows what the future holds? This may be the last time that she's going to go on a date with 'cause after all this, we're going back to our normal lives. Just Irene and I being members, sisters...
Irene has a schedule right now. She told me that she won't be home until tonight. This gives me more time to prepare for our date tonight. I may not be able to spend the whole day with Irene, but at least I get to spend the whole night with her...

Irene's P.O.V.
It was already 7:30 pm when our manager told me that I can go home. Since we are still shooting for the show right now, I decided to go straight to Seulgi and I's penthouse. I was expecting to see Seulgi as soon as I arrive, but she was nowhere to be found.
"Seulgi-yah?? Yah, Kang Seulgi!!" I tried looking for her, thinking that she's just hiding.
Hmm, maybe she already left...
My thought changed when I reached the bedroom. I am pretty sure that Seulgi is not here since I saw a black dress placed on top of the bed. I approached where the dress was located and saw that it was the same dress that I used for Vogue Korea. It was a Miu Miu backless black sequined dress. I then saw an enveloped next to it. I decided to open and check what's inside since it was clearly addressed to me.
"To my dearest wife,
Please wear this dress I have prepared for you and meet my driver downstairs. Ohh and before you say anything, yes, I know that it's the same dress that you wore for Vogue Korea. I managed to pick this dress because it really showcased that beautiful back side of yours ;) The car is already parked at the ground floor. It will take you where I am currently at. I can't wait to see you.
- Kang Seulgi"
I smiled after reading the letter. I know that I'm supposed to be resting after a schedule, but the fatigue that I am feeling is no longer there when I read Seulgi's letter. Actually, rather than feeling tired, I feel more excited right now. After spending a day without Seulgi, I also can't wait to see her. Well, time to prepare then.

The trip to where Seulgi is currently at was shorter than I expected. Currently, the driver was escorting me out of the vehicle and he was guiding me where the place is since it's a bit dark here. After walking for at least a few steps, I can see lights coming from a gazebo at the end of a bridge. The gazebo is located at the lake, which made the scenario romantic.
As I was about to admire the scenery in front of me, when a certain person caught my attention. I saw Seulgi standing at the end of the bridge, while holding a bouquet of flowers. I noticed that she is wearing her signature suit and tie outfit.
You guessed it; I have completely fallen in love with Kang Seulgi.

Seulgi's P.O.V.
The driver texted me that they are on their way already. I double checked whether I prepared everything for my date with Irene.
Fairy lights, check. Pictures, check. Candles, check. Flowers, check. Food, check. Romantic music, check.
The only thing that I need to prepare is myself. I don't want to be all dramatic right now to the point that I will shed into tears when I see Irene. I am preparing myself when I see Irene because I feel like this date is different than our other dates. This time, I am sure about my feelings for Irene. I have fallen in love with her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I just hope that this date can lead me to greater heights.
I saw car headlights not too far away from where I was standing so I positioned myself and stood at the end of the bridge near the gazebo.
After a while, I saw Irene checking the place out. Her eyes then shifted and she was now looking at me. I smiled as our eyes meet each other. I don't know if I'm delusional or something, but I swear, as soon as I meet her gaze, I felt like I saw her eyes sparkle.
"You made it." I said.
I approached her even before she could cross the bridge.
"This is for you." I gave her the bouquet that I was holding.
"Why thank you." Irene said and giggled a little.
"Shall we?" I positioned my arm, asking her to link arms with me. As soon as she linked her arm in mine, we started crossing the bridge, on the way to the gazebo.
I unlinked my arm after and then I pulled a chair so that Irene can sit on one.
"Such a gentlewoman." I heard Irene say.
I sat at the opposite direction and began to admire how Irene looks right now. She looks really really beautiful right now. The dress fits her so well and it really highlighted her pretty back side.
"I believe that I am currently having a date with the most beautiful woman in the world right now. You look so stunning. I may be the luckiest person alive."
"You really mean that?" Irene asked me, smiling.
"Of course. My eyes can't stop staring at you. You're like a drug that I'm addicted to. You're alluring and captivating at the same time. I just want to stare at you all day." I commented. I then heard her laugh.
"Wow, do I look so beautiful right now? Well, if I am, you don't look bad yourself." Irene said. This time, I'm the one who's laughing.
"Yah, after all the compliments I gave you, that's all I can get. You know, I've been looking for a suit that would match your dress the whole day." I joked.
"I'm kidding. You know that you caught my attention as soon as I saw you standing, while wearing that suit and tie of yours. No man can look better than you in suits."
"I'm so glad that you came."
"Of course I will. I haven't got the chance to spend the whole day with you and I got to say, I missed you." Irene smiled at me sweetly.
"Yah, that's supposed to be my line. I'm supposed to be the one who's cheesy here." I pouted.
"Anyway, I missed you too." I held her hand and stared at her. Our starting contest was cut short when I heard her stomach growling.
"You must be really hungry right now. Shall we dig in then?" I asked Irene. She nodded with a smile on her face.
We started eating and we didn't start any conversations or whatsoever. Just enjoying each others' presence right now is what's important. The only thing that we can hear right now aside from the utensils that we are using is the music coming from the speakers. Like what I said, I prepared everything for this date. Even the romantic songs that are playing at the moment.
*We Got Married Family (MCs)*
"I never expected Seulgi to be the romantic type. "
"Their date is simple yet so romatic and charming."
"Really, where can I get my own Seulgi?"
"You already have your own Moonbyul there."
"Are we still talking about Aseul here?"

We finished eating and my plan is about to take place in any minute. I prepared a set of our pictures using a polariod camera during the behind the scenes of every date or shoot that we had. I hanged them on the fairy lights that were decorated around the gazebo.
"Wow, you really prepared all of this, huh?" Irene asked me.
I chuckled. "Of course. If this is going to be our last date as a 'married' couple I want it to be special."
"Who said that it would be our last?" Irene whispered. I wasn't able to understand what she said since I think that she wouldn't want me to hear it.
"Ohh, I didn't notice this a while ago." Irene changed the subject and looked through the polariod pictures.
"Yah, you remember this?" I pointed out our first picture when we met each other at the zipline. "We were really awkward back then." I laughed a little.
"Yeah, I guess you can say that. I think that we were both just so surprised to see each other back then. What about this one? This was our first real date, right?" Irene pointed out our picture back at the Namsan Tower.
"Ohh I remembered that one. I had fun that time; we were starting to act like a real couple back then hehe."
"I like this one too." Irene said, while pointing out our picture when we first got our home together.
"I was really surprised back then because the place looks really expensive and you still managed to buy it for us."
"What can I say?" Irene shrugged, while smiling.
"I didn't think that you were that rich. Well, by far this one is my favorite." I unclipped a picture and showed it to Irene.
"It was our wedding day. I didn't expect that a lot of people will come since it was not a real wedding." I said.
"Well, maybe they like to see us get married for real." Irene replied.
"Yah, that was real smooth." I commented, which made us both burst in laughter.
"I won't also forget these two. This was the time Wendy, Joy, and Yeri went to our house to play games with us. I swear, they cheated that time to make us kiss. And this one, this day is probably the most fun and tiring day that we had. It was during the team building rally, right?" Irene asked me.
"Yeah, that was the day when we won our free and luxurious trip to France."
I looked at my watch and realized that it was time. I held Irene's hand and pulled her towards the bridge.
"Yah, what are we doing h---" Irene stopped mid sentence when she saw the shooting stars. You can clearly watch the stars from our view since I managed to reserve a location where it can be fully seen.
"It's beautiful." Irene said, her eyes still looking at the shooting stars.
"I know."
"You really planned this one out, huh?" Irene once again said, which made me nod.
"Anything for my wife."
"Quick, make a wish!!" Irene clasped her hands together as I did the same.
I closed my eyes and thought about my wish. "I wish that I could finally and call you mine; like, for real this time."
"I wish that we could stay like this forever." Irene thought.
After the shooting stars, we both opened our eyes.
"What did you wish for?" I asked Irene.
"If I tell you now, then it won't come true."
"Ohhh you're right. I wouldn't want to take my chances too."
"Don't worry, I'll tell you mine when it's already granted."
"Me too. If it ever comes true, you'll be the first person to know what my wish was." I said.
