The day of Minji's birthday had arrived, and her parents, eager to make amends for their past shortcomings, had prepared an extravagant bash in her honor.

The grand hall was adorned with shimmering decorations, and the air was filled with excitement and anticipation.

As Minji entered the room, her heart skipped a beat. She felt like a princess in her meticulously tailored gown and crown, specially measured just for her.

The love and effort put into every detail were evident, and Minji couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude.

Her friends, along with Jake, gathered around her, their smiles wide and their eyes sparkling with joy.

The room buzzed with laughter and conversations, creating a vibrant atmosphere.

Hyeongseop, Yoongi, and Sunghoon took turns dancing with Minji, twirling her across the dance floor and showering her with affectionate gestures.

Then, it was Jake's turn. He held out his hand, a mixture of nervousness and adoration in his eyes. "May I have this dance, my princess?" he asked, his voice filled with affection.

Minji smiled, her heart fluttering at his endearing words. "Of course, my prince," she replied, her voice laced with warmth and adoration.

As they swayed to the enchanting melody, their steps perfectly synchronized, Minji felt a profound sense of connection. They moved together as if they were in their own world, their gazes locked, their smiles mirroring the joy radiating from within.

In that moment, their relationship became official, announced to the world through the language of dance and the love that radiated between them.

Amidst the enchanting ambiance, Minji's true father, who had once been absent from her life, approached with a mix of apprehension and hope in his eyes.

She held her breath as he extended his hand, his voice filled with emotion. "May I have this dance, my beloved daughter?" he asked, his voice trembling with sincerity.

Tears glistened in Minji's eyes as she gazed at her father. With a mixture of forgiveness and longing, she placed her hand in his, stepping into his embrace.

The dance became a poignant symbol of reconciliation, a bridge between the past and the future, and a testament to the power of forgiveness and second chances.

As the night wore on, the celebration continued, laughter and music filling the air.

Amidst the festivities, Jake pulled Minji to a more private place, holding a small gift in his hands. "You probably thought I didn't have a present for you, open it."

"What could it be?" Curiosity sparked within her as she shook and unwrapped it, revealing a delicate small bottle with a cork, filled with sand from the Haven Island—a place that held both painful memories and transformative experiences.

"When you open that bottle, and pour out the the sand, you will find a key. Key to the white mansion." Jake deepened his gaze at her eyes.

Minji took a deep breath "What's the meaning of this, Jake? Why would you give it to me?"

Jake's eyes locked with hers, filled with love and understanding. "It's a symbol," he whispered softly. "A reminder of the journey we've taken together, the ups and downs we've faced. It represents our strength and the love that conquers all."

"I believe you will take care of my most important possession. When you decided that you want to go there, you have the key." 

Overwhelmed with emotion, Minji accepted the gift, understanding the depth of Jake's sentiment.
