|| Author Pov ||2 Months LaterThe city was glowing under the bright sun. Its calm streets were still damp from last night’s rain.In the quiet apartment, Rosalie moved around the small kitchen. The silence was broken only by the soft bubbling of noodles on the stove. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun. A few strands slipped down to brush her cheeks, then she leaned forward to check the pot.“It’s done.” Rosa muttered to herself while turning off the stove before filling her bowl with steaming ramyeon. The scent rose like comfort she didn’t quite feel.Carrying the steaming bowl to the small living room, Rosa sat down on the couch. She set the noodles beside a pile of scattered books, tucked a few stray strands of hair behind her ear before folding her legs beneath her.When the food had cooled a little, Rosa set the bowl on her lap and began to eat. The room was silent except for the soft clink of chopsticks.Rosa blew gently on the noodles. Her lips brushed the chopsticks as she t

|| Narrator’s POV ||“ROSA!” Aria yelled, rushing to Rosa who had collapsed on the floor.She crouched down, tapping Rosa’s pale cheeks. Rosa was totally unconscious. “Rosa? Open your eyes! Rosa?” she gasped.————Aria gently placed a damp cloth on Rosa’s forehead. Rosa’s skin was burning with fever. Her eyelids parted weakly, breaths came out shallow and fast.Her blurry gaze met Aria’s worried eyes.Aria’s eyes softened as she took in the sight before her. Rosa looked utterly worn out, paler than she had been in the last two months. Her skin was dull, lips dry, and dark circles hollowed her delicate face from sleepless nights.Rosa looked fragile and weaker than Aria had ever seen her. It didn’t take her long to understand what had brought Rosa to this point.“What have you been doing to yourself?” Aria paused. “Look at you, Rosalie. Do you even realize what state you’re in?”Rosa blinked slowly. Her tired eyes moved to meet Aria’s. Her head rested weakly against the bedpost.“It’s

|| Narrator’s Pov ||Rosa’s eyes trembled at the scene before her in a distance.Time seemed to freeze.Her breath caught in her throat.Her body refused to move.Bump! Bump!Her heart raced uncontrollably as she recognized the familiar back kneeling before her parents’ tomb. The back she would never mistake to recognize. The one she had thought she’d never see again.He was there right before her eyes. Rosa could hear her own heartbeat pounding in her ears. Her existence was hanging between shock, relief... and something she couldn’t even name.Rosa never imagined she’d see him again, here, in a place like this, under circumstances like these.Her legs trembled, barely able to support her weight in shock as if the earth itself had softened beneath her. She needed to convince herself she wasn’t hallucinating this. He was alive. He was really here. Rosa didn’t know whether to scream, cry, or collapse or to feel anything at that moment.Her lips parted.“Professor!”Her voice rang out,

|| Narrator’s Pov ||Killian stepped out of the shower while shaking his head, scattering droplets from his wet hair. The top buttons of his white shirt was open. Beads of water traced the lines of his toned chest. He’d slipped back into the same clothes. He hadn’t brought anything else anyways.Rubbing his hair with the towel she’d given him, Killian caught her sweet scent to the fabric and damn, it made his pulse slow and quicken all at once.He made his way toward the kitchen, only to stop at the sight before him.Rosalie was moving around the counter, a little flustered and completely lost in what she was doing. For a moment, Killian forgot to breathe in mesmerization. It was the first time he’d ever seen her cooking. She looked determined and heartbreakingly beautiful with her hair tied in a messy bun.Watching her like that... a sudden thought crossed his mind.Killian’s thoughts scattered when Rosa gasped softly upon seeing him. She quickly reached up to fix her hair, but Killi
