Gentle and Frugal

She was bored with the glorious spring weather and had too much time on her hands. She followed a handsome guy all the way into a cafe, only to find it completely empty.

If she had seen a mysterious door, pushed it open, and found herself transported through time to a palace of ornate carved beams, where all the men wore long queues and all the women walked on stilts, this would be a Qing palace transmigration drama.

If she had discovered that the missing handsome guy was something other than human, then hired a female detective with a crystal compass and magical powers to find him, this would be the second installment of a supernatural detective series.

But cruel reality tells us that our budget is only enough for a modern romance, so the handsome guy changes into his uniform, comes out through the staff entrance, and serves her coffee with a sunny smile, along with his phone number.

He was young and handsome, with a successful career. Just as his sister-in-law was trying to persuade him to go on a blind date, a strange man draped an arm familiarly over his shoulder and claimed to be his boyfriend.

If the stranger had sneered, "You think you can escape me?" then kidnapped him, imprisoned him, done all sorts of things to him, and he had somehow fallen in love and willingly returned to his side, this would be a forceful-love danmei story.

If he had discovered he had amnesia, then desperately searched until he finally regained his memories, his family and lover, his career and friends, only to find that his family weren't related to him by blood, his lover was his blood relative, his career had been taken over by his friend, and he had contracted some pale, beautiful, but absolutely fatal illness, this would be a modern Korean drama.

But since this is only a modern romance, all he does is... Hm? What? We've hit 500 words? That's a wrap.
