It's the time that we were about to go home with the girls. I was busy fixing up my room when I heard a light knock at the door.

"Oh, Manager Lou, what is it?" I asked him as I saw him standing by the open door.

"You didn't have to fix the room up, you know that Miss." He said to me with a light bow.

"It's okay, I didn't have anything to do anyways." I said as I picked up my luggage.

He helped me lift it up of course.

"Why are you here by the way? I didn't ask for assistance."

"Miss Minnie asked me to help you." He answered.

I smiled at the thought. I was all fixed up and ready to leave the room when I noticed Manager Lou's expression, he seemed worried.

"What is it, Manager?"

He looked down. "I'm sorry for snooping but I saw what happened yesterday, Miss and I'm just worried about Miss Minnie."

I smiled at him for being cautious. "She knows, and we already talked about it." 

He seems surprised by what he heard. I guess he didn't expect Minnie to be so calm about it.

"She was okay with it?" 

"Well not really okay, but she didn't make a fuss about it." I looked down as I thought of her reaction.

I heard a huff from Manager Lou. "That's good then, Miss."

He took the luggage from my hands to assist me. He stayed silent after that, knowing his respectful nature he didn't ask further questions.

I have to ask him something that has been lingering on my mind too.

"Uh.. Manager Lou... Can I ask your opinion about something? I mean a comment from someone who has known Minnie for a very long time." I was quite embarrassed asking him about it.

"What is it, Miss?" He stood straight like a soldier waiting for a command.

I inhaled a short breath as I prepared to ask him. "Who do you think Minnie likes, the past me or the new me?"

After I finished the question, he seemed quite shocked by my curiosity. What surprised me the most was that surprised expression being followed by a small smile.

"No matter what time you exist in Miss Mira, she'll still like you for who you are, I have no doubt in that." He monotonously answered.

"What if I'm not me?" I'm such an idiot for asking that.

He chuckled a little. "Even if you are an alien sent from space, I know that Minnie loves you, just by how she is willing to look pass such events for you. She cares for you within her heart, so don't doubt that Miss."

Hearing him say all that eases my worries a bit. Knowing that I'm not really Mira adds weight to that worry.

"Have you eaten already?" Soojin asks me as she entered the elevator I was on.

"Yup...How about you, Eonnie?" 

She smiled at me and leaned at the elevator wall. "I just ate too. Minnie was all smiley today, I'm guessing something good happened?" 

Something good? Oh yeah the kiss..... I looked away from Soojin knowing that my cheeks are probably beet red.
