It was a sunny morning in NYC, good enough to enjoy the day with friends and family but as it was also a monday morning, Park Jihyo woke up early without any alarm and was first greeted by her lovely dog Milo.

"Good morning sweetie!" she said in a happy, loud voice with a joyous smile upon seeing Milo, the first one in the morning which was returned by a more louder and excited bark by Milo. She then brushed, took gargles and put up a track suit and ready to leave for a morning walk.

"Come on buddy", she called Milo and attached a belt to his collar belt, and locked the gate and left

She always have a happy start in the morning as she always see Milo's happy and excited first in the morning which is good enough to make her happy all day if she not face any other situations everyday. She always go to a park for a walk with her dog which is filled with lots of different types of people, many of them know Jihyo as some were neighbors or some regular people who visit the park just like Jihyo. They like to play with Milo while Jihyo just tries to take a fresh air by herself and do some jogging which just brightens her mood more until she got invited by some neighbor couples for a little chit-chat who talks about nothing else than relationships and keeps asking her questions like "You interested in someone?", "Want me to set you for a blind date?", "Why aren't you dating someone?", which just annoys her and ends her daily morning walk.

She always tries to dodge these kind of people but also can't ignore them and be to rude to them. It's not like she hate these people, it's just that it since she moved to New York she's just too much involved in her work living a successful woman life which even makes her forget about her personal life. Her friends and family also tries to remind her to get into a relationship by asking too much questions, suggesting dating things, introducing to new people, but all were in vain as Jihyo also try to think about it at the moment but later forgets it or ignore it as she has much more important and interesting work to do. For Jihyo maintaining time for family and friends was enough, making time to know a complete stranger, whom she dosen't know that she'll like or not in the future was just a waste of time. She thinks she's is satisfied with her life but people around her can notice how much her smile has faded over the years. People around her and her friends were also in good relationships but it never affected Jihyo because she was used to it, people at work or at other public places asked Jihyo for dates but she always refused, which gave them a rude side of her but otherwise she was well known for her good behaviour and professional nature.
