The list went on for a total of 38 items. The words were written densely across the entire page, and each item was unique.
Madison was at a loss for words. “You…”
Sebastian crossed his arms. “You asked me before what are the benefits of being my girlfriend. Well, are these enough? If I think of more, I’ll add them anytime.”
“Seb, I didn’t mean it like that! I… I was joking…”
At that time, his sudden confession had caught her off guard. She wasn’t thinking clearly and asked the question to buy herself time to process what was happening.
Who would have thought that not only did he take it seriously, but he even listed out all the benefits one by one?
At that moment, Sebastian said solemnly, “But Madison, I’m not joking. I’m very serious about pursuing you.”
“Madison was visibly flustered when faced with such a direct confession. Under his unwavering gaze, a
faint blush slowly crept onto her cheeks.
It was hard to tell whether the glow in her cheeks or the sunset outside the window was more radiant.
“Madison, will you be my girlfriend? I’m not trying to pressure you or force you into agreeing. You have every right to refuse me. Whatever choice you make eventually, I will respect it unconditionally.”
Having said that, Sebastian fell silent.
Madison also didn’t say a word.
During this time, the flight attendant brought them their meals and arranged them in front of the couple. However, neither one of them touched the food.
It was unclear how much time had passed.
For Madison, it was perhaps a few minutes. It wasn’t a difficult question for her, and the answer came

easily.
She just needed time to process her decision and to confirm that she wasn’t in a dream, but something that was truly happening.
However, the long pause felt like centuries to Sebastian. He felt anxious, restless, uneasy, and worried.
It felt as though he were back on the track field. He gave his all to finish the race, and now he could only wait for the judge’s final score.
However, there were no medals this time. No gold, silver, or bronze. There were only two possibilities, success or failure.
Would he lose? Or would he win?
Finally, Madison looked up at him with a wide smile. “Okay!”
Sebastian’s eyes were filled with delight. “Really? You promise? You can’t back out after this!”
“Yeah, I promise you. You can’t back out either. It’s all in writing…” She waved the A4 paper in her hand. Her mind recalled back to the noodles he had made for her the other night.
Madison couldn’t help but imagine how happy she would be to eat something that delicious every day.
“Then, it’s a deal!”
When they boarded the plane, they were walking one in front of the other. However, they were holding hands by the time they disembarked.
Sebastian pulled out his phone and took a photo of their tightly clasped fingers. Then, he posted it directly on his social media account with the caption, Allow me to formally introduce my girlfriend, Madison Hill.”
She leaned over to look. “What are you sending-”
The words were stuck in her throat mid–sentence.
Dumbfounded, Madison stammered, “You… Why did you post it on social media?”
“If I don’t announce it publicly, you might back out later!” he replied.
Madison was at a loss for words. “We just got together and you’re already posting about it on social media. Aren’t you afraid you’ll regret it if we break up?” she retorted.
Sebastian’s voice deepened. “Break up? Don’t even dream about it!”
That night, Madison lay on her bed in the apartment. She couldn’t stop herself from smiling as she stared at Sebastian’s post on her phone.
This was the first time she felt so cherished, so much so that a man couldn’t wait to announce their relationship to the world, as if he was afraid she might slip away.
Besides her parents, it turned out that there was someone else in the world who would care about her
that much.
