Yohan and Kian reached Yohan's apartment building, the silence of their journey stretching unbroken between them. Though they appeared ordinary to passersby, those who knew them well could sense a palpable shift in their demeanor.
Kian's usual stoic expression had melted away, replaced by an unexpected gentleness that radiated from his very being. A subtle warmth emanated from him, hinting at happiness despite the absence of a smile gracing his lips. It was as if tiny blossoms danced around him unseen, adding an ethereal touch to his aura.
Confusion still swirled within Kian's heart – a whirlwind stirred by Yohan's impulsive kiss. Yet, when those lips had met his own, instinct took over with breathtaking force. All thoughts vanished as he surrendered to the moment; the confusion dissolving into something raw and undeniable beneath Yohan's touch.
