Living with Kaya made his life turn around completely again and Zeno couldn’t deny that he liked the way it was now. He couldn’t really tell how many years had passed by since he left the palace, since his brothers left before him, but it felt good to have someone around again - even though he knew that it only would last for a certain amount of time. Which was why he tried to spend as much time with the young woman as possible. When he came back this day from getting some food from a nearby village a smile was already on his face once he could spot the little house they were living in. He even picked up some flowers because he hoped he could make her a little happy with them. 

Waving with one hand his steps even got faster for the last bit. 

Zeno had found himself surprised at being awoken by the feeling of lips on his forehead. Bright blue eyes fluttered open to make contact with those of the girl he was staying with -- what a great way to start the morning. He hadn’t expected the morning greeting, even more so the little present she’d given him. 

『Eh...? Happy Birthday...? Breakfast...?』

Honestly, he’d completely forgotten his birthday was that day. Leave it to Kaya to remember, he guessed. He wasn’t exactly one to celebrate his birthday, but well... Maybe if it was with Kaya he wouldn’t mind as much though -- besides, it had been a while since he’d celebrated being a year older, a long while. 

As he managed to break free of his half-asleep stupor, he gave the girl in front of him a bright smile. Kaya was sick, and she went through such lengths to do something like this for his birthday; it would be rude not to celebrate with her. 

『Eh?』

The rather bemused sound had come from Zeno as the ring of flowers was dropped lightly on his head. He looked up at the smiling face on the girl he’d been living with for a short while, and couldn’t help but smile back in return. 

『Ah, thank you! It seams you beat me in the present-giving game.』

The blond laughed cheerfully, wrapping his arms around the girl’s shoulders. Kaya was like an adorable little ball of sunshine, for being as sick as she was. It was hard not to want to laugh and smile when he was around her. Perhaps that sunshine was even rubbing off onto him a little bit; he’d been much more cheerful lately than he had been in a while.

He was moments away from leaving, having been called away by the King for business at the castle —– what business that was Geun-Tae didn’t know, but when the King called he came, no questions asked —– when the cheerful voice of his wife caught his attention. His lips instantly begin to twitch into the beginnings of a grin, his usual generic grin but unlike the grins he wore around most, this one had a tender-ness that he never showed to anyone else but her. 

He steps towards her, stopping just short of a few inches away, as he places a gentle hand atop of her head before allowing his fingers to brush a few blow away hair behind her ear.
