"Winter! Get back inside!", Karina shouted from the front door as Winter put the last seed of sunflower inside the soil at their garden house. Knowing that the younger girl has astraphobia, she should come back quickly before thunder and lightning strike.

"Coming!", Winter ran under the rain, and gladly as she reach the door, the first thunder struck, and Winter knew she can immediately lean into Karina for protection.

"Change your clothes first, then we can cuddle while watching Netflix downstairs", Karina smiled looking at the small figure inside her embrace. Winter nodded and slowly pulled out. Karina gave a final peck on Winter's forehead before letting her wife run upstairs to change her slightly wet clothes.

Storming inside their bedroom and changing her clothing just in 60 seconds, Winter rushed back downstairs with a blanket in her hands. She ran downstairs happily and Karina was watching her with a smile, not until thunder struck again.

"Ah!", scared Winter immediately crouching halfway thru the stairs and Karina walked towards her with her arms wide. Maybe Winter's situation might look a bit annoying to others, but Karina knew her wife too well. If she left the younger girl alone on rainy days, she'll shiver in horror. Not to mention how much she'll sweat later, and Karina hates to see it again.

"Come here, you baby", Karina wrapped her arms around Winter's crouching body, pulling her tightly for comfort, assuring the younger girl that now she was there to protect her.

She pulled Winter up again, helping her to walk towards the living room like they promised to. Karina sat on the sofa first, then tapped the empty space between her legs to Winter. The younger girl nods in enthusiasm and takes her seat between Karina's legs as the older girl wrapped her arms around Winter's waist. Then, Winter wrapped her body with the blanket, at the same time covering Karina as well.

Karina put her head on Winter's shoulder and they watched Netflix together. It was their final day to relax together before their parents arrive at their home in less than 24 hours.

It was the day.

....

Karina greeted her parents with her hugs, and the same goes for Winter's parents. Winter expressed how much she miss her parents with her cute peck on both her parent's cheeks. Her act just left everyone in the room giggling happily. They took their seat in the living room, and soon after, Aeri arrived with her parents, also her girlfriend, and Winter's best friend, Ningning.

Karina took her seat right next to her wife. Hands holding tight onto Winter's, looking straight to her parents full of confidence and determination. She never felt so determined in her life, and Winter made her become one.

"So, I guess you already made your decision?" Mr. Yu asked with a smirk, looking at how her daughter's hand entangled with her wife from the moment they entered the house.

"Yes, father. I want all of this to stop", Karina said full of confidence while everyone in the room looked at her full of confusion. But the girl keeps smiling.

"Karina- What did you-", Aeri's words were cut when Mr. Yu speaks again. "How about you, Winter?".

"I-I want to continue!", Winter said with her serious expression and later turned her attention towards her wife. Giving a concerning look, Winter slightly squeezed the older girl's hand tighter, asking for confirmation.

"Rina... I thought... we talked about this?", Winter said with her low voice. Karina could see how tears start to form up in the younger girl's eyes, before she let out a soft chuckle and shook her head, denying everything.

"I didn't even finish my words, you silly~", Karina smiled while headbanging her wife's head gently, and later shifted her gaze back towards her father.

"Yes, I want this to stop and what I mean by that is I want this contracted 3 months marriage to stop. I want to make it a real one", Karina grin at her father before shifting her eyes back towards Winter. Okay, she made the girl cry, and Karina panicked because of that.

"Winter, no...", the older girl wiped the tears on Winter's cheek using her thumb, sometimes giving a soft hush just to make Winter stop crying.

"Oh, Rina. You're such a bad wife. You make the girl cry~", Mrs. Yu teased and the house was full of laughter again. When Winter finally stopped crying and everyone starts to have their family dinner that night, everything seems just perfect from the couple's eyes. Now, everyone is happy.

Winter and Karina are happy.

....

Winter walked towards the campus car park together with Ning, and when she saw that familiar car belong to the one and only celebrity she'll ever love and like in her entire life, she waved her hands happily towards the tinted glass without even knowing the person inside the car even saw her or not.

"Got to go, Ning. See you tomorrow~", Winter said with her smile before walking straight to the car. Ningning waved back until her best friend holding the car doorknob, but suddenly Karina pulled down her window before Winter can even enter the car.

"Ning Ning! Come in! I'll give you a ride!", Karina shouted and Ningning's face was glowing.

"Really? That's so kind of you!"

....

It hasn't been a while since Ningning enters the car. Maybe about one minute, but now she regrets her decision to get in the car. The Chinese girl rolled her eyes in annoyance as she held her arms together in front of her.

"Gross", Ningning murmured silently because since a minute ago, the couple in front of her didn't stop flirting with each other.

"How's class today, babe? Did anyone bother you?", Karina asked as she kept on driving, one of her hands was held by Winter and the younger girl keep stroking Karina's hand on her cheek like it was the softest thing ever to exist in the whole damn world! That is what makes Ningning annoyed.

"I'm fine~ How about your acting today? Dis the director too harsh on you?", Winter asked before planting a kiss on Karina's hand, enough to leave some lipstick marks on it. Ning rolled her eyes again.

"Oh, no worries. I did great!", Karina replied.

What's worse is when the car stopped at the red light. Not enough with the holding hands and hand kissing, now the two were kissing in front of Ningning's innocent eyes! They even dare to smile like a fool toward each other and somehow Ningning could guess that this couple in front of her has forgotten her existence in the back seat.

"Ehem!", Ning coughed just to make sure the two remember her existence at the back, and that's when both Karina and Winter were startled to death and both turned their head to the back seat to look at Ningning rolling her eyes again.

"Excuse me, newlyweds- oh. It's not new anymore, I guess. But you forgot there's someone here besides you two inside the car. Calm your damn hormones down!"

Winter and Karina could only laugh shyly with Ningning's words and later said sorry. When they finally dropped off the girl in front of her house, they start being lovey-dovey with each other again since there's no more disturbance.

"You know what, Rina? I think I could make my life a novel", Winter stated and Karina lifted one of her eyebrows in amusement.

"Oh, really? What's the title of the novel will be?"

"How I got engaged with a star!", Winter said as she pointed her hands towards her wife when she said the word 'star' just now. Karina then lifted her eyebrows again, anticipating another nonsense from Winter.

"Oh? I'm the star?", she asked.

"Yeah! Never in my whole life dreamt to be entangled with a celebrity, but then here I am, a wife of a celebrity", Winter continued with her cute bright smile. Karina's favorite.

"Would you marry me again in your next life?", Karina asked and Winter immediately nodded her head. She is definitely serious with her answer.

"Even if in my next life, they'll be no arranged marriage like what happened to us, I'll make sure to find you! Then I'll marry you again! and again! Again! Again! Again! Again-"

and Karina loves Winter's nonsense.
