I went to a boutique in the outlet mall with Eun-ha to buy clothes.
It was the beginning of sumr, and many people were busy choosing outfits.
Eun-ha carefully examined each piece of clothing on display.
And I, too, was not immune to this deliberation.
How do they look to you, Han-gyeol? Is white better? Or is sky blue better?
Is there really a better answer than both are pretty?
If its sothing worn by the girl I like, naturally, everything looks pretty.
I was worried that if I chose white, she might think sky blue doesnt suit her.
Han-gyeol?
I couldnt delay my response forever, so I ca up with a wise answer.
I slightly tweaked the phrase both are pretty.
White looks pretty, and sky blue looks cute.
Though I couldnt escape the option that both suited her, Eun-has face surprisingly lit up.
Really? Then I should buy both.
Youre going to buy both? Wouldnt it be better to just get one? Theyre just different colors.
But I want to look pretty and cute to Han-gyeol, so I have no choice. Ill buy both.
Eun-ha smiled happily as she placed the clothes in her shopping basket.
Youre smiling a lot today, arent you?
Yes. Im really happy that Han-gyeol helped decide.
Im glad youre happy, Eun-ha. Have you bought everything?
Just one more top to go. Oh - should I buy a gift for Han-gyeol too?
Eun-ha looked up at with sparkling eyes.

Her gaze was practically insisting, even if I said it was okay, shed buy it for anyway.
You really look like you want to buy it for , Eun-ha?
Yeah, yeah. I really want to gift you clothes. What do you like?
I appreciated the thought, but I was a bit concerned about Eun-has spending.
If she bought clothes for too, she would end up spending a lot today.
Knowing I couldnt dissuade Eun-ha, I suggested an alternative plan.
How about this? Ill buy the top you were going to get for yourself, and you can buy one for .
Huh? Wouldnt that just be like were exchanging, not gifting?
What matters is the thought. Co on, Ill buy one, so you choose.
Hmm, cant you choose for ?
? I have no sense of fashion. What if you dont like it?
That wont happen. And I want to wear sothing you think looks pretty.
Alright. Ill try my best to choose sothing.
Yeah, yeah!
But as I wandered around the boutique, nothing particularly caught my eye.
Having never really picked out wons clothes before, I was unsure what would be good.
After making a full round, I still hadnt found the perfect gift for Eun-ha.
This is hard. Eun-ha, do you have sothing in mind you want?
? Anything you think is pretty is fine. Dont worry too much.
But I want to consider your taste too. Can you give a hint?
Then... since its sumr, I was thinking of getting a dress. Shall we go with that?
Yes. Id like to see you in a dress too.
I saw so over there earlier. Lets go look.
Alright, lets go.
Led by Eun-ha, I entered the section where dresses were displayed.
But here too, there were so many dresses that it seed it would take ti to choose.
From what Id seen of Eun-has clothing choices so far, she didnt seem to prefer tight or short clothes.
While I usually picked my clothes without much thought to the material, I wanted to be more careful since it was for Eun-ha.
I was willing to spend a bit more for a nice dress.
What kind of dress do you like, Han-gyeol?
To be honest, I think everything would look good on you, but- ah, that style seems to suit you. What do you think, Eun-ha?
I pointed to a dress on a mannequin, different from the ones hanging on the hangers.
It was a typical dress, neither too flashy nor too plain.
A sky-blue dress that matched Eun-has pure and elegant vibe.
It was lovely to think of Eun-ha wearing it, not the mannequin.
Are you talking about that sky-blue dress over there?
Yes. Its pretty.
Do you like that style? Kind of pure and neat?
Yes. I think itll suit you really well.
Then, shall I try it on?
Are you going to? Wheres the fitting room?
Next to the cash register. So, shall I try it on? You cant say anything if it looks weird, okay?
It wont look weird. Give your bag and basket. Ill hold them.
Eun-ha handed her crossbody bag and the shopping basket.
Then she went to the clerk and said she wanted to try on the dress.
Id like to try on the dress the mannequin is wearing over there.
Sure. Please co this way. If you wait in front of the fitting room, Ill bring it to you.
Okay. Thank you. Han-gyeol? Lets go wait over there.
Eun-ha and I waited in front of the fitting room for the clerk.
After a short while, the clerk ca with the dress.
I brought a size that should fit you. Please feel free to try it on.
Thank you. Han-gyeol, Ill go change and co back. Wait for here, okay?
Eun-ha received a dress from the clerk, but the color of the dress wasnt sky blue.
Did I see it wrong? I wondered, just as Eun-ha entered the changing room.
The clerk, after handing over the dress to Eun-ha, had gone off sowhere.
Thats strange... I was sure it was sky blue... Did I see it wrong?
Muttering to myself, I looked back towards the mannequin.
There it was, the sky-blue dress still on the mannequin.
But at that mont, I noticed the mannequin right next to it.
The dress on this mannequin was the polar opposite of the pure and elegant one.
It was a black dress with spaghetti straps and a slightly plunging neckline.
To anyone, it would appear more sensual than pure and elegant.
Han-gyeol... are you there?
Ah- Yeah, I am. Why?
I think the clerk gave the wrong dress.
Really? Wait a mont. Ill talk to the clerk.
No, since I have it now, Ill try it on. Can you wait a bit?
Sure. Go ahead and finish changing.
Yeah, almost done. Im coming out now...
The changing room door slowly opened, and Eun-has figure ca into view.
She looked so stunning in the dress that it erased all my prior thoughts, and I couldnt help but be in awe.
Wow-
But, this dress seems a bit too revealing
Eun-ha, usually so pure and elegant, suited this provocative dress too.
Her straight shoulders and the sowhat provocative collarbone line caught my eye.
Her beauty was so evident, it was hard to look away.
Han-gyeol. Does it look strange?
No, it suits you incredibly well... but its a bit too provocative, so lets pass on this one.
Right? Ill change back quickly and co out!
Eun-ha hurriedly closed the door and changed her clothes inside.
I shook my head vigorously from side to side, trying to rid my mind of the turmoil.
But the image of Eun-ha just now was too vividly etched in my mory, making it impossible to forget.
With a click, the door opened, and Eun-ha stood beside .
Han-gyeol, I guess those kinds of clothes dont really suit .
No-! You looked amazing. Until now, Eun-ha, youve always had this pure, elegant, cute, and lovely vibe, but, how should I say this, you looked incredibly mature. That maturity, mixed with your youthful side, created a harmoniously noble look, and there was a dangerously charming feel to it.
No need to complint that much-! There are other people around... shh!
Eun-ha gestured for to be quiet, but I had already crossed a point of no return.
I grabbed Eun-has shoulder, looking her straight in the eye.
I an it, it wasnt because it didnt suit you. But it was embarrassing for both of us, and above all, it was too provocative for to handle. You get what Im saying, right? You were incredibly beautiful. So beautiful that Id want to see you like that every day, but Im just not ready for that yet...!
Okay, I get it...! Thanks for the complint...! Shh-! Look around.
It was only after I had lavishly praised Eun-ha that I beca aware of our surroundings.
Everyone, both those waiting and those changing clothes, was looking at .
Oh no-
Lets get out of here...!
Eun-ha took my hand, leading away from the gaze of the people.
Once we were far from the changing rooms, Eun-ha looked at with a small laugh.
What was that about earlier? I didnt expect you to complint that much.
No, I just couldnt help it... you were that pretty.
But still, I think Id be too shy to wear such clothes.
Yeah. Lets tell the clerk and try on the dress you originally picked.
As I was about to look for the clerk, Eun-ha grabbed the lapel of my shirt.
Huh? Eun-ha, why?
Well... since I tried it on, should I buy this one...?
Huh?
This is also a dress you said was pretty. Im okay with this one too.
But you said youd be too shy to wear this kind of dress...
If its just for Han-gyeol to see, it doesnt really matter, does it?
What? Shes getting bolder by the minute...
