"jagiya...wake up" he whispered
"hmmngh" she groan and slowly opened her eyes
"good morning" he greeted
"morning" she yawned.
"it's 7 am already. go take a shower and we'll have breakfast"
"okayy" she got up, half asleep and went inside the bathroom. in the shower she heard noises from the bedroom door
as she got out, she saw wonjin was arranging foods and beverages on the small table beside the tv
"in-room dining? why don't we go to the cafe?" she asked
"the cafe is already crowded so i called room service"
"okay..so, are we going anywhere today?"
"im not sure but i have a list of places we can visit"
"oh! i know osaka castle! i've seen the pictures before. can we go there today?" she said excitedly
he chuckled "as you wish"

"wow it's even more beautiful up close!"
"you like it?"
"of course!"
"now let's go inside" they hold hands and and entered the castle. inside of the castle is a museum about the japanese samurai who built the osaka castle, hideyoshi toyotomi
to explore each floor, you can either take the elevator and explore from top to bottom or walk up the stairs
they wanted to spend more time in the castle so they decided to take the stairs. to explain what there is in each floor, it had histories about hideyoshi toyotomi, 'summer war in osaka', what life was like under his rule and types of armor and weapons used by samurai
to make it look more interesting, they used miniature dioramas that use projection, giant painted screens, and small movie theaters. it was a good way to explain the story of the castle
she didn't really understood some parts of it and surprisingly, wonjin help explain it to her because he knows japanese language
"you can speak japanese?!"
"yeah. that's why i wanted to go here" he replied
the most fun part of the castle is the 8th floor that has the observation deck. from up there they can see the view of osaka skyline and the castle grounds
after that they walked down the stairs and left the castle. they had been exploring the castle for hours and didn't realize it was almost closing time
"did you have fun?" wonjin asked
"yea! i wish we can go here again"
"if you really want to we can go here again next week"
"really?!" she looked at him
"of course" he replied with a smile
"yeay!" she shrieked. "wonjin.. can i have matcha ice cream?"
"sure" he kissed her forehead
"thank you!" she hugged his arms
'maybe going on honeymoon with him isn't such a bad idea'
'ehem don't forget there's a reason why'
