The next day was very fresh for Taehyung as he had a proper sleep last night, and it became more lively when saw a fresh bouquet of flowers. He picked up the bouquet and smelled it and by smelling it he could tell how fresh the flowers were and whoever arranged it, had done the work diligently as all the flowers were simple yet unique. Just the way he liked. Later, he noticed a small note, along with the bouquet. He took it off and read the lines :

"Good Morning, My Love. I hope seeing this bouquet and its flowers' fragrance makes your day more lively and fresh, just the way you did to me only by your existence. Just like these flowers, you are special and unique in my life. So, please shine more and start your day. Have a great day, my beloved."
- Yours Forever, Star Candy.

To say Taehyung was shocked would be a lie, he was totally blown up as to who would call him 'love' and 'beloved', because the only person who might call was no more. 'What the hell?! Who is this? Why would they say this? Argh! Wait... Jeongguk was here before me, maybe he knows.' Taehyung thought.

"Mr. Jeon, do you know who sent these things?" He asked, showing him the bouquet and note.

"What are you talking about, Sir? How would I know who sent those things to you? When I came, I saw them on your table. Therefore, I don't know who the sender is. Sorry, Sir." The secretary gasped and explained while the other just sighed.

"But, I must say whoever it is, must be a great admirer of you or really loves you a lot," Jeongguk commented with a naughty grin on his lips.

"Tsk. No one can love me that much unless that person is my- -" Taehyung cut himself and widened his eyes when he realized what he was going to say and coughed out. "Whatever, let's just get back to work." He stated in his usual monotone voice and went back to his seat.

Jeongguk huffed out and thought, 'Aish! All my efforts and hard work went in vain, he didn't even smile. Never mind, tomorrow I will send something more special. But about whom he was talking about? God! Why is this man so mysterious? Tsk, whom I am even talking about? He is The Kim Taehyung, of course, he has to be mysterious. Anyways, Gguk, get back to your work.' With that, Jeongguk sighed and again went on to type on his monitor.

Though Taehyung did not show it to the younger, he was indeed very happy and thankful for the bouquet. He smiled mentally while wondering who might be the sender.

Sunmi got an early leave today, as her boss sensed that she seemed very mentally tired and exhausted and as a kind being, her boss gave her an early leave. But why did Sunmi seem very mentally exhausted?

It was simply because of the past few day's events that happened in her life and may or may not also because she had developed an unknown feeling for a certain red-haired male. She was aimlessly wandering in the park and thinking would she ever be able to meet Hoseok and confess her feelings? And even if she confesses, would the male accept her?

Sunmi's train of thoughts seemed to get interrupted when she bumped into something hard, more like someone's hard chest; the black-haired lady lost her balance and was about to kiss the ground, she closed her eyes and waited for the hard impact. But it never came, rather a pair of muscular and veiny hands wrapped around her waist, preventing her from falling.

When she sensed that she didn't hit the ground, she immediately opened her eyes and when she saw who the person was, her eyes became double their actual size, because there stood none other than the human sun - Jung Hoseok.

Both of them seemed like their surroundings just stopped and everything felt like going on in slow-motion. They were looking deep into each others' eyes and just stayed still in that position. After what seemed like ages, they finally looked away and fixed their postures. There was nothing but silence around them.
