Being a bodyguard seems to be a very responsible and a boring job, isn't it? And so thinks Mirae. But things get complicated for her when she becomes the bodyguard of, the famous actor and singer, Choi San and starts to fall for him.
Will she really...
We three were now at the restaurant, enjoying our dinner together.
"Woah!... It's really delicious," Mirae said before stuffing her mouth with more food.
"I know right!" San said, smiling at her.
"Take some more then," I said, passing some grilled pieces of meat to her.
"Thanks, Jaehyun. You really grilled it well."
"Ah, don't mention it." I rubbed the back of my neck. I passed some to San too.
I was still eating when I noticed something. "Ah, Mirae, you have food on your lips."
She tried to wipe it but didn't know the exact place. So I quickly picked up a tissue and was about to wipe it for her when San turned her face towards him.
"How are you so clumsy?" he said, wiping her mouth with a tissue.
I frowned and pulled back my hand. I sighed and went back to eat the rest of the food of my plate.

Soon we were done and headed out of the restaurant, having an ice cream for the dessert.
"I didn't know you liked mint choco too," Mirae said. "What a coincidence! We three like mint chocolate... Was it destined for us to meet each other?"
"I guess so," San said.
I slightly smiled. "...I'll get going from here."
"Okay then..." Mirae said. "See you later."
She waved at me and then went with San towards the parking lot. I sighed and turned on my heels to go my way.
I reached my house and sat on the couch. I sighed, leaning back on the couch.
"Am I doing right?..."

Mirae's POV
I yawned and walked out of my room. I walked to the kitchen and drank a cup of water.
"No schedules for today. I can finally rest."
I was walking back to my room when San came out of his room. "Are you going somewhere?" I asked.
"Yeah."
"Ah, I see." I nodded.
"Mirae-ah..."
"Hm?"
"I usually go alone to this place but... now I want to take you there." I looked at him in confusion.
(A/N : Now you gonna take me there~ Hana dul urineun ganda jipyeongseonneomeo... I couldn't stop myself. I just love 'Horizon' so much.)

We both kept the bouquet of flowers on the grave. I looked at San who was now holding back his tears.
"Mom used to like hydrangeas so much," San said. "I could have brought her more when she was still..."
He couldn't say anything after that as he broke into tears. "Sorry, mom..." I rubbed his back, trying to hold back my tears which were threatening to fall.
I made him sit on a bench and did the same too. He was still sobbing so I put my hand on his and squeezed it a little.
"That day, mom died saving me," he said. "It's all because of me. I couldn't save her. I just couldn't... I should have died instead of her."
He looked down and more tears started rolling down his cheeks. I pulled him into a hug.
"Don't blame yourself for it. It's not your fault." I patted his back. "You did nothing wrong." He kept sobbing on my shoulder.

"So you got a panic attack when you saw the chandelier at the photoshoot?" I said. We were now walking back to the car.
"Hm." He nodded. "It reminded me of that time."
"...Are you okay?"
"A little better..."
I paused in my steps and watched him walk towards the car, his head hung low.
—Flashback—
"Lee Hyunwoo wanted to kill San that day but he killed San's Mom instead..." Seonghwa-ssi said.
"...San knew it very well that Lee Hyunwoo was behind it but couldn't do anything as he didn't have any proof about it."
—End of flashback—
I need to do something...
"Aren't you coming?" San said, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Coming..." I ran to him.
***
We were now back at the parking lot of his apartment. San went out of the car but I didn't move from the driver's seat.
"San, let me borrow your car. I need to go somewhere," I said.
After hearing an 'okay' from him, I quickly drove to the place.
