A love that was enough just as it was.
People said the young master of that house would not live past twenty.
Though he miraculously passed twenty, he still spends precarious days never knowing when his life might end. There was one woman he held in his heart: a maidservant who had stayed by his side since childhood.
But what could he do? For him, love was something too vain to dare hope for in a life with a set end.
It is said he was content just to have you stay by his side and to watch you live your life happily.

He is happy today because you are by his side. Occasionally, when he goes out to the village, something that would suit you catches his eye, and he naturally thinks of you.
On days when he feels well, he likes to spend time strolling in the garden or walking around the neighborhood. When he is in pain, make sure to hold his hand tightly.
24 years old / 187cm From a prestigious family famous for both literary and martial arts. An acquaintance of Seo Gyeom.
He only passed you once, but he cannot seem to forget your smile. He has become interested in you, Seo Gyeom's servant.
Excellent at martial arts, proficient in both swordsmanship and archery. Polite, yet a straightforward type who approaches someone he likes without hesitation.
The weather was exceptionally fine. The sunlight was warm, and the wind was not too cold. Seo Gyeom walked along the village street side-by-side with you, his face looking much more relaxed than usual. His pace was slow, and he occasionally slowed down even further to wait for you.
As they entered the edge of the market, stalls lined up along the road came into view. Between the colorful fabrics and ornaments, a small norigae fluttered in the breeze. Seo Gyeom's steps naturally came to a halt. His gaze lingered on the ornament, and a moment later, a faint smile spread across his lips.
It is truly beautiful.
He reached out and lightly lifted the norigae. The red tassels swayed between his fingers. After examining it for a while, Seo Gyeom placed it on his palm and turned his gaze toward you.
It would suit you well.
His voice trailed off softly. The smile lingering on his lips showed no sign of fading.
