As they finished the delicious dinner, Eun-tae insisted on taking care of the dishes. However, A-ri, ever the considerate guest, offered her assistance. The memories of their past encounters flashed in their minds as they washed the dishes side by side, their hands occasionally grazing each other's. Instead of awkwardness, these fleeting touches left them yearning for more.
"Eun-tae, it's been so long since we did something like this together, hasn't it?" As Eun-tae passed her the last plate, A-ri couldn't help but speak up, her voice gentle and warm.
"Yes, it has," he replied, his eyes filled with nostalgia. "But it feels strangely familiar like we've never really been apart," Eun-tae turned to look at her, a soft smile playing on his lips.
"You're right. Some things never change, I suppose," A-ri nodded, her heart warming at his words.
With that, they shared a knowing look, a silent acknowledgement of the deeper connection that had always existed between them. It was as if the week of separation had only served to strengthen their bond.
Eun-tae managed to suppress his rising emotions, and as they finished washing the last dish, he excused himself to take a shower. A-ri, in the meantime, volunteered to unpack his luggage, a task she knew he'd appreciate after his long journey.
As Eun-tae rummaged through his luggage, his fingers found a special gift he had picked up during his time in Germany. It was a delicate porcelain figurine of two dancers gracefully entwined, symbolizing the beauty of harmony and connection. He knew A-ri had a fondness for art, and this gift felt perfect.
With the gift in hand, Eun-tae walked back to where A-ri was unpacking. He held it out to her with a warm smile.
"I got you something during my trip," he said. "I hope you like it."
A-ri's eyes lit up as she accepted the gift, carefully examining the intricacies of the figurine.
"Oh, Eun-tae, it's beautiful," she exclaimed, touched by his thoughtfulness. "Thank you so much. I think I put it beside the pictures we set."
Their eyes locked for a moment, and it was as if the years of separation melted away. At that moment, A-ri felt an overwhelming surge of gratitude and affection. Without thinking, she leaned in and placed a sweet, lingering kiss on Eun-tae's lips.
Eun-tae was momentarily taken aback by her boldness, but he didn't pull away. Instead, he returned her kiss, his heart pounding in his chest. He found himself entangled in a powerful mix of desire and longing that he hadn't felt in a long time. His hands moved to gently cup her face, savouring the softness of her skin.
A-ri's hand began to wander across his chest, feeling the contours beneath the fabric of his shirt. The intensity of their kiss deepened, and for a moment, it seemed as if they were on the brink of losing themselves in each other.
However, Eun-tae knew he had to show restraint. He pulled away, his breath ragged, and met A-ri's gaze with a mix of longing and determination.
"Thank you for the wonderful kiss, A-ri," he said softly. "But I think I need to take that shower now."
"Of course, Eun-tae. Thank you for the gift," A-ri nodded, her cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and desire.
With a final longing look, Eun-tae excused himself and headed to the bathroom. He couldn't help but smile as he thought about the rekindled sparks between them. It was a promising beginning, and he couldn't wait to see where it would lead.
Eun-tae stood under the soothing flow of water, his thoughts consumed by the unexpected kiss he and A-ri had shared. Regret gnawed at him, a sense that he'd let something precious slip through his fingers. He grappled with his emotions, struggling to find words to describe the whirlwind of feelings that had stirred within him.

A knock on the bathroom door broke his reverie. A-ri's voice followed, likely signalling the end of her task of unpacking. Eun-tae switched off the shower, the sudden quiet amplifying the thumping of his heart. Had he heard her correctly the first time? Did she really just suggest what he thought she did?
He asked her to repeat herself, needing confirmation. This time, A-ri's voice, tinged with hesitation, affirmed her earlier proposal for a shared shower. Eun-tae's mind raced as he tried to comprehend the situation. Why was she suggesting this now?
"A-ri, did I hear you right? You want to... take a shower together?" Eun-tae asked.
"Yes, Eun-tae. If you're okay with it," A-ri's voice, though soft, held a sense of determination.
Eun-tae's heart pounded in his chest. He knew the implications of what they were considering. The flood of memories and emotions washed over him, making it hard to think clearly. Yet, there was an undeniable longing in his heart, a yearning to bridge the gap between them.
Eun-tae voiced his reservations, listing the many reasons why it was a terrible idea. Their history, the emotions it stirred, and the unresolved feelings simmering beneath the surface weighed heavily on his mind. But despite his protests, his body seemed to move of its own accord, inching toward the bathroom door, drawn by an undeniable magnetic pull.
A-ri's response was soft but honest.
"I'm okay with that, Eun-tae," she admitted, her voice quivering with vulnerability.
A heavy silence settled between them, tension thickening in the bathroom. Both knew the unspoken desires that hung in the air, fueled by their shared history and the electric connection still sizzling between them. Then, like the inexorable tide, the door clicked softly, indicating it was no longer locked. Eun-tae's heart raced as he called out.
"The door is unlocked."
Moments lingered, their emotions heightening in the intimate space. Finally, with shared understanding, the door began to swing open, revealing A-ri on the other side.
Eun-tae remained standing behind the door, the steam from the shower enveloping his naked form. He had no intentions of hiding his desire any longer, and it hung there, a palpable presence that A-ri couldn't ignore. While he did have a towel within reach, he didn't want to break the spell of this passionate moment by reaching for it just yet.
As A-ri walked into the bathroom, her towel draped from her breast to her knee, Eun-tae couldn't help but admire the way it clung to her, accentuating her every curve. The sight of her hips swaying as she moved sent a jolt of desire through him, and he found himself captivated by the allure of her skin.
She walked past him, averting her gaze from the most enticing part of his exposed form, and slowly revealed her opened back to him. Eun-tae couldn't resist stealing a glance at her sexy back and the ample curves of her buttocks that seemed to beckon him.
A-ri hung her towel next to his, and when she turned around, she kept her arms crossed over her chest, teasingly concealing her upper body while making her lower lips visible to him. Even though they were both standing, the tension and anticipation in the room were palpable and Eun-tae found himself unable to look away.
Finally, the moment they had both been waiting for arrived. A-ri broke the silence by turning on the tap, and the water began to cascade down her body. Her skin glistened from the reflection and wetness, and she looked back at Eun-tae with an alluring gaze, her voice a sultry whisper as she asked.
"What are you waiting for?"
Eun-tae needed no further encouragement. He stepped forward, closing the distance between them, and the warm water cascaded over their entwined bodies. They stood there, front and back, aligned with each other, under the sensual stream of water, surrendering to the undeniable passion that had been reignited between them. It was a moment of unbridled desire and longing, a reunion that they had both yearned for, and they knew that there was no turning back.
As the water caressed their heated skin, Eun-tae's hands found their way to A-ri's waist, and he pulled her closer. Their bodies pressed against each other, and the sensations that coursed through them were electrifying. A-ri's lips sought his, and they shared a searing kiss that left them both breathless.
Their tongues danced in a sensual tango, and Eun-tae's fingers traced a path along A-ri's spine, sending shivers of pleasure down her body. Her hands explored his chest, fingers teasing his sensitive skin, as they revelled in the taste and touch of each other.
The water acted as a passionate accomplice, intensifying the sensations coursing through their bodies. A-ri's breathing grew heavier, and her moans mingled with the sound of the rushing water, creating a symphony of desire that echoed through the bathroom.
Eun-tae couldn't help but let his hands roam lower, his fingers tracing the contours of A-ri's curves, sending waves of pleasure radiating through her. She arched her back, pressing herself against him, unable to contain her desire any longer.
Their bodies moved in a sensual rhythm, each touch and kiss igniting their passion further. Eun-tae's mouth explored the nape of A-ri's neck, leaving a trail of kisses that made her gasp with pleasure. Her nails dug into his shoulders as she surrendered to the intensity of their connection.
The bathroom became a sanctuary of sensuality, a place where time ceased to exist as they lost themselves in each other. The water continued to rain down on them, washing away their inhibitions and fears, leaving only their raw, unbridled desire.
With every caress and kiss, they rewrote the history of their love, rekindling the flames of a passion that had never truly died. Their bodies, slick with water and desire, moved as one, and in that intimate moment, they knew that they were meant to be together.
As the water flowed over them, they surrendered to the overwhelming sensations, embracing the passion that had drawn them back to each other. They were no longer two separate beings but a single entity, united by their love and desire, standing together under the cascading stream of water, lost in the ecstasy of the moment.
