Artem: I saw a poster for a new movie. Would you like to watch it after shopping?

You: Sure, I heard it's pretty good. It's supposedly the dark horse this month.

Artem: All right, I'll go buy the tickets.

Pax CBD

You: Look, contrails!

Artem looks in the direction of where you're pointing, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Artem: It's rare to see such clear contrails in the city.

You: Yeah, I thought you could only see them in the suburbs.

You: It's a rare opportunity. Why don't we take a picture with it?

Artem: I'll take a photo of you.

Pax CBD

You: The bar in the advertisement is the one we're planning to go to.

Artem: Yes, but it probably isn't open for business since it's still daytime.

You: I'd expect nothing less from the most famous bar in the CBD. Even their advertisements are massive.

Pax CBD

Artem stops you upon seeing you open the fridge.

Artem: It would be better to have room-temperature water.

You: It's pretty hot in the mall. Drinking a sip of iced water should be fine, right?

Artem: Hmm...

Artem: Then grab one of each. If it's too cold, you can drink the room-temperature water.

You: Sure, I'll also grab another drink.

Pax CBD

You: Artem, they have yogurt cream mochi!

Artem: Yogurt cream mochi?

You: It was a popular snack back when I was in college. Do you want to try it?

Artem: Sure. It just so happens that I've never had the chance to try it before.

Pax CBD

You: I didn't expect this brand of fruit candy to still be on the market!

Artem: It's an old brand. I remember having them around the house when I was young.

You: Let's buy some. I want to see if it still tastes the same.

Artem: Yes, let's buy the mixed flavor since it has more choices.

You: Sure. That's the same one I used to buy.

Pax CBD

Artem: The black truffle steak seems good. Want to try it?

You: Yeah, I bet it's delicious! Just like how the name's so mouth-watering!

Artem: As for dessert, I would recommend the crème brûlée or strawberry soufflé.

You: Now that's a hard choice...

Artem: Then order both and have a taste of each.

You: I don't want to waste food.

Artem: You won't. If you can't finish it, then just leave it to me.

You: Hmm...

Pax CBD

You: Artem, how did you know Pax opened a new restaurant in the CBD?

Artem: I heard a friend compliment the restaurant's atmosphere and taste.

Artem: I visited the restaurant's official website and came to the same conclusion, so I booked a reservation.

Artem: Do you like it?

You: Yes, I do.

Pax CBD

You: The cutlery looks good. I kind of want a set at home.

Artem: Sure, I'll make the arrangements. Do you want the same color? I think it also comes in silver.

You: Hmm... What color do you like?

Artem: I'm good with either.

You: Then I'll choose this color.

Artem: Sure.

At 8:30 PM in the night, the highest-rated bar in the CBD was already packed. You and Artem barely manage to squeeze in.

Artem doesn't seem to fit in amidst the pulsating lights and deafening dance music.

Artem: ...

Artem leans awkwardly at the bar, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a slight hint of panic. He seems unused to being in a place like this.

You: Artem, you...

The loud music in the bar drowns out your words.

Artem: Hmm? What did you say?

To make sure Artem hears what you're saying clearly, you grab onto his shoulders and whisper into his ear.

You: Mr. Wing, you can't run away in the face of a battle.

Artem: I won't run away.

Artem: I rarely go to bars outside of work, so I'm not familiar with it...

Artem pauses for a moment, then clears his throat out of embarrassment.

You: That's why we're here to experience it.

As the loud music reaches its climax, you pull Artem onto the dance floor instead of waiting for him to react.

The limited space increases the risk of bumping into others, so Artem subconsciously pulls you into his embrace.

Your bodies are pressed against each other in an intimate embrace.

Artem: ...

Even though you and Artem are dating now, he prefers to keep a normal distance from you in the public eye.

He was acting without thinking just now. When he comes to his senses, he takes a step back, trying to put some distance between you two.

You: ...

Seeing how uncomfortable Artem is, you feel like teasing him...

You put your arms around his neck, pulling him in so close that your nose is filled with the faint scent of his body.

He looks at you in surprise, then immediately understands your intention as he tightens his hand around your waist.

Artem pulls you even closer, leaving only a sliver of space between your bodies.

Artem: Is this too close?

As he speaks, Artem is close enough that his words tickle your neck with a gentle breath.

You: It's... It's okay.

Artem: It seems everyone is improvising, instead of performing a particular dance.

Artem: Let's go at our own pace.

You: Yeah...

You and Artem savor the dance, drowning out the white noise in the background as if you're the only two people in the bar.

Artem takes complete control, and you can't help but chuckle at how much he's enjoying the unfamiliar form of leisure.

Artem: What is it?

You: Nothing. I just think it's amazing how awkward you can be when trying something new alone...

You: But when it's just the two of us, we seem to be able to get accustomed rather quickly.

Artem: Having you by my side has given me courage.

Artem tightens his grip as he answers you, while people begin to leave near the end of the song.

He holds you tightly, worried that you might get knocked down by the crowd. As the song ends, Artem whispers into your ear.

Artem: Thank you for showing me infinite possibilities.
