Mr.Lee found out that it was Mr.Bang Shi Hyuk, the manager of the 'hit-making' BigHit entertainment. Without delaying seconds anymore, he immediately dragged Mr.Shi Hyuk by his arms inside the restaurant.

Hana was shocked. She knows who he is. She knows that he's the manager of the big entertainment company in South Korea as in whole, the world. She ran behind the two men inside the restaurant and shut the door. She turned the restaurant's 'OPEN' board to 'CLOSED' so that no one will enter the restaurant at that time.

Mr.Lee made him sit on one of the chairs in the restaurant and began to talk with him.

"It's been so long since we saw each other. Oh my God, why are you here all of a sudden?"

"Ah! Wait, I had hard time searching for you in the whole Seoul city, you know? But anyhow, I found you", Mr. Shi Hyuk answered while he took off the mask and the black hat.

" How are you?", he asked to Mr.Lee.

"You see, I am fine... with this restaurant and stuff... leading a peaceful life. I am very shocked to see you, I never thought I will see you again."

"Destiny led me to a different path but I had always remembered you", Mr, Shi Hyuk replied to Mr.Lee.

They talked about so many things as they met after many years. Mr.Lee and Mr.Shi Hyuk had been friends since childhood. As Mr. Shi Hyuk entered the entertainment field, he had no chance to come into contact with this friend.

"Also, I want to introduce a person to you. This is my...", Mr.Lee said and turned to find Hana but she was not there.

"Just wait here", he said to Mr.Shi Hyuk and walked towards the kitchen as he smelt a nice aroma coming from there.

His heart felt so warm to see how Hana was so responsible, making breakfast on the sight of a new visitor.

"Hana..."

"Yes, Mr.Lee, I'm making breakfast for the guest and you", she smiled. "Just you go and talk to your friend, you met him after a long time. Don't worry, I'll finish it now", she told him reassuringly.

"Okay, Hana, I'll be talking with him...", he said and left the kitchen.

Mr.Lee came back to the place where Mr.Shi Hyuk has been sitting and found a place to sit beside him.

"Do you have an assistant cook for you in the restaurant? That's great!", Mr. Shi Hyuk said gladly.

"She's...she's not just an assistant but also she's...like my daughter", Mr.Lee said looking at the floor.

"Oh, I see. She's so helpful for you. Tell me about your family", Mr. Shihyuk asked.

"I don't have one", Mr. Lee said in a low voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Lee. I'm sorry to hear that. At least, you have your daughter", Mr. Shihyuk told to cheer him up.

"What's her name and how did you meet her?"

"Her name is Hana. She's a university student....", Mr.Lee talked about Hana and narrated how he met her to his friend.

"...you know she's the only one I have, like a daughter", Mr.Lee finished his talk and Mr. Shihyuk gave a warm hug to his friend.

"Be happy that you have her", Mr. Shi Hyuk said.

"Yes, I will", Mr. Lee gave a weak smile.

"Do you know why I came searching you?", Mr. Shi Hyuk asked out of the blue.

Actually Mr.Lee was curious from the beginning why the manager of a huge company is here in the restaurant at this time.
