It All Started With A 'Hi' || Mina×Reader

Several months flew by in a whirlwind of shared moments, laughter, and cozy evenings spent together in their new apartment. Mina and Ishie had seamlessly integrated their lives, each day bringing new discoveries and deeper connections between them.

One evening, as they sat on their balcony overlooking the city skyline, Ishie nestled against Mina's side with a contented sigh. The city lights twinkled in the distance, a serene backdrop to their quiet conversation.

"I can't believe how far we've come," Ishie murmured, her fingers tracing idle patterns on Mina's thigh.

Mina smiled warmly, her gaze softening as she looked at Ishie. "Me neither," she admitted softly. "But I'm so grateful for every moment we've shared."

They fell into a comfortable silence, the only sounds the soft hum of the city below and the occasional rustle of leaves in the breeze. Mina found herself reflecting on the journey that had brought them to this point, from friends to lovers, and now to partners building a life together.

"I have something to ask you," Ishie said suddenly, breaking the peaceful silence.

Mina turned to look at Ishie, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "What is it?" she asked gently, her heart skipping a beat at the serious tone in Ishie's voice.

Ishie took a deep breath, her expression earnest yet slightly nervous. "Mina, you've brought so much joy and love into my life," she began, her voice steady with determination. "And I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

Mina's breath caught in her throat, her pulse quickening with anticipation. She searched Ishie's eyes, seeing the depth of her love and commitment reflected back at her.

"Ishie," Mina whispered, her voice filled with emotion. "Are you..."

Before Mina could finish her question, Ishie reached into her pocket and pulled out a small velvet box. She opened it to reveal a shimmering ring nestled inside—a symbol of their love and the promise of forever.

"Mina," Ishie said softly, her eyes brimming with tears of happiness. "Will you marry me?"

Tears welled up in Mina's eyes as she stared at Ishie, her heart overflowing with love and joy. She nodded eagerly, unable to find her voice as she reached out to take Ishie's trembling hand in hers.

"Yes," Mina finally managed to say, her voice trembling with emotion. "Yes, Ishie, I will marry you."

Ishie's face broke into a radiant smile as she slipped the ring onto Mina's finger, their hands trembling slightly with excitement. They held each other close, their hearts soaring with the knowledge that they were embarking on a new chapter of their love story.

That night, they celebrated their engagement with champagne and laughter, sharing their joy with friends and family over video calls and messages. Mina couldn't stop staring at the ring on her finger, marveling at the promise it held of a future filled with love, companionship, and endless possibilities.

In the days and weeks that followed, they began planning their wedding, each decision made with love and excitement. They chose a venue that held special meaning for both of them, selected their favorite flowers for the bouquets, and envisioned their loved ones gathered together to witness their union.

As they walked hand in hand through the park one sunny afternoon, Mina couldn't help but feel a profound sense of gratitude for the love she had found in Ishie. They stopped to admire a blooming cherry blossom tree, its delicate pink petals fluttering in the breeze.

"I love you," Ishie said softly, pressing a kiss to Mina's cheek.

"I love you too," Mina replied, leaning into Ishie's embrace. "Thank you for choosing me, for loving me so completely."

Together, they stood beneath the cherry blossom tree, their hearts intertwined as they dreamed of the future they would build together. Mina knew that their love story was just beginning, filled with hope, laughter, and the promise of a lifetime of happiness.

And as they walked home, hand in hand, Mina couldn't wait to say "I do" and embark on the greatest adventure of all—marrying the love of her life.
