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...
"I must really be crazy..." I mumbled to myself, thinking about yesterday night. "Ah, what do I do?!..." I grabbed my hair.
I was now at Seonghwa oppa's vocal practice room. I was waiting for him there. "I'm a total mess." I sighed.
Then my gaze landed on the computer screen which displayed a fancam of his. "He watches his fancam when he's free?" I chuckled.
Just then the door opened, revealing Seonghwa oppa. "Annyeong, Mirae-ah. It's been a while." He greeted me with a smile.
"Yeah..." I smiled back.
"How have you been?"
"Just so so. What about you?"
"Just a little busy with the schedules."
"Ah, I see..."
Then his gaze landed on his computer screen. "Ah, this!..." He got embarrassed and quickly turned it off. "Pretend like you didn't see anything."
I secretly giggled before answering. "Okay."
"Ms. Song told me you were waiting for me here. Is something wrong?" He sat on another chair opposite to me.
"The thing is... I have something to tell you."
He looked at me with confusion. "What is it?"

"Are you crazy?!..." Seonghwa oppa yelled, standing up but soon realised it and lowered his voice. "Joining Lee Hyunwoo means digging your own grave."
"I know... I couldn't think of any other way."
"It's way more dangerous than you think... No, you can't do that."
"First, calm yourself down..." He sat back on his chair and sighed. "It's the only way to bring Lee Hyunwoo's real face in front of the public... for San's sake."
"But still–"
"I know what I'm doing. I thought about it carefully before coming to the decision."
"But what if he hurts you?"
"He won't."
"How can you be so sure about that?"
"He also knows he won't gain anything by doing that. And I don't have anything to lose anyways."
He let out a deep sigh. "...Does San know about it?"
"Not yet... I'm findng the right time to tell him."
"But why are you doing that? Why do you want to go so far for San?"
That left me in complete silence. I too questioned myself why I'm doing that and why would I be bothered about his personal matters.
"Is it because you like him?" Seonghwa oppa said, making me look at him. I couldn't answer it at that time.
Do I like San?...

I looked at my wrist watch. "I need to go now," I said.
"Be careful," Seonghwa oppa said.
I stood up and walked out of the room, him following me. Just then I heard Jiwoo unnie's voice.
"Mirae-ah!" We turned to face her.
"Here," she said, handing me the pen. "Click this button and it'll start recording."
"I got it. Thanks, unnie."
"But why do you need it?"
"Just some need came up. I'll get going now."
I gave Seonghwa an assuring smile and waved at them before walking away.
I went to the car and took a deep breath before igniting the engine and driving to my destination.

Hyunwoo's POV
"Mirae hasn't doubted me yet," he said.
I smirked. "Don't ever let her know about it."
"I saw her holding the voice pen. I think she would be recording all the conversations."
"I knew she'd do something like that." I laughed a bit. "She's so naive. She thinks she can destroy me with that. How funny!"
"And I've also found something that would be useful for you."
"What is it?"
He leaned closer to my ear and whispered it. A smirk crept up on my face on hearing that.
"She'll be here anytime now," he said.
I looked back at him. "Good job! You can leave now."
He bowed a little and walked out of my office. I leaned back on my chair.
"Kang Mirae, you're done for sure..."

Mirae's POV
I was now at Lee Hyunwoo's place. I was still standing in front of the lift when the door flung open, revealing a guy dressed all in black. He also had his mask on so I couldn't see his face.
We walked simultaneously but I felt a familiar vibe when he passed by me. I kept looking at his direction till he was out of my sight. I shrugged it off and pressed the button of the floor.
I knocked before entering the familiar room. I walked inside and saw Lee Hyunwoo sitting at his desk. I went to him.
"You're here?" he said, smiling. "I've something for you to do."
I slowly put my hand in the pocket of my pant and tapped the button of the pen. "What is it?"
"You have to bring me his new songs and a list of his schedules as well. You can do it easily, right?"
—Flashback—
"Lee Hyunwoo is very clever. He won't trust you that easily," Seonghwa oppa said.
"Then what should I do?"
"You have to gain his trust."
"How?"
"Complete his orders. Just do what he says even if you don't want to. That's how he'll come to trust you. And you could easily do your job."
—End of flashback—
"Of course, I can do it," I said.
I just hope it works as planned...
