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...
It's been two months since that incident. As the time passed by, San too is recovering quickly.
His fans went wild when they came to know about it. They sent a lot of letters and posted a lot of positive messages asking him to get well soon. I think that gave a lot of strength to him.
San is still on a hiatus as he still needs to recover fully. He too wants to do a powerful comeback and surprise his fans.
"Sannie oppa, get well soon. We know you're taking care of yourself well. We'll wait for you so don't rush yourself. Hwaiting!"
I chuckled on reading a post on his official fancafe. It's so good to see his fans supporting him.
"Mirae-ah..." San said who was sitting beside me on the couch. Now I was at his home.
"Hm? Do you need something? You must be hungry. I'll go cook something for you."
I stood up to go to the kitchen but he pulled me back and made me sit on his lap, wrapping his arms around my waist .
"I don't need anything... Aren't you going to tell me?"
I looked at him in confusion. "Tell what?"
"About quitting your job."
"Ah, that..."
"I heard from manager-nim that you quit the job. Why didn't you tell me?"
"I was going to tell you... Actually, I-"
"I know. PTSD, right?" I slightly nodded. "If it's bothering you then I won't force you."
"Really?..." I let out a sigh of relief. "I thought you would be mad at me."
"I was but I have some conditions."
"What are they?"
He grabbed my hand, intertwining the fingers. "Don't look at another guy except me. Don't smile at other guys. Don't be so kind with others. And the most important one, don't ever think of leaving me. Got it?"
"You look so cute when you're jealous, you know that?" I chuckled. "Okay. I'll keep that in mind."
"You're mine."
He gently kissed my hand before hugging my waist again and resting his head on the crook of my neck.
"...Since we're talking about it. I've one more thing to tell you."
"What is it?"
—Flashback—
I pressed the doorbell of the known yet unfamiliar door and waited for someone to open the it. After a few moments, the door opened, revealing the person I was looking for.
"Uh? Mirae-ah?" mom said, surprised to see me there.
"I've something to talk to you." She looked at me in confusion.

"Do you really want to do it?" mom said. We were now sitting on the couch.
I nodded. "I want to help you with your job."
"Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"After what happened to San, I couldn't get myself to continue that job. That's one of the reasons. And the other is... I wanted to give you another chance."
She quietly listened to me so I continued.
"It's a little hard for me but I want to give you another chance to become my mom. I want to forgive you and want to start anew. So... will you accept me?"
"Of course, I'll accept you." I noticed her getting teary. "Thank you, Mirae-ah. Thank you so much for giving ne another chance." She weakly smiled.
—End of flashback—
"Good job," San said, patting my head. "I'm happy that you took the right decision."
"But it's still awkward for me."
"It's okay. You'll get closer eventually... But, wait a minute! Does that mean you'll not be living with me anymore?"
"Well, I guess."
"Ah, why?~ I don't want to live alone." He hugged me tightly.
I chuckled. "We can meet up whenever you want."
"But still..." He pouted.
I cupped his cheeks, making him look at me. "Even if I get busy, I'll make sure to visit you often. Okay?"
"I'll get mad if you don't come."
"Okay." He smiled before pecking my lips. He giggled and went for another peck. "...What should we do today?"
"Netflix?"
"Sounds good. What about a horror movie?" I looked at him to see his reaction.
He pulled back. "Yah, you know I can't watch that."
"That's why I said." I laughed a bit.
"You!..." He started tickling me.
"Yah, stop it!..."
"I won't if you still insist on watching horror movies."
"Okay, okay... You can choose." He stopped tickling me.
"You better let me choose."
I sat beside him. "Then what do you want to watch?"
"How about 'Imitation'?"
"Ah, the one in which you, Seonghwa oppa, Jeong Yunho-ssi, Choi Jongho-ssi and many other actors are there?"
He nodded. "That's right!"
"I wanted to watch it since a long time. But..." I sat straight and narrowed my eyes. "You didn't have eyes on the other pretty girls offscreen, right?"
"Of course! And no one's pretty in my eyes, except you."
"You're making me blush..." I lightly hit him, blushing hard.
"I told you, you like those stuffs, didn't I? You seem to like it so much."
"Well..."
He chuckled and pulled me into his arms. I feel like I'm the happiest person when I'm with him.
I like me better when I'm with you...
