I couldn't stop giggling about what happened today. Instead of crying, I felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.

Was it because of Director-nim? He saved me from that monster, and just like I thought, he's truly different from all the men I've encountered before.

He's a real man...

I giggled to myself, and my gaze landed on the balcony.

Wait, there's a bud about to bloom on the rose tree.





Excitedly, I ran over and sat next to the tree.





"Now, do you have time to bloom?" I playfully asked the bud. Did you know that trees can communicate with us? Yes, they can talk.




I watered the plant and said a silent prayer, "If you bloom tomorrow, then Director-nim will become my friend. Please let him stay with me." I whispered my plea and giggled, gently caressing the bud.


"Please bloom tomorrow," I whispered again and leaned against the wall, gazing at the rose tree, hoping it would bloom soon.





















The sound of chirping birds filled the air, and the warm sunlight streamed onto my face.

I slowly opened my eyes and realized I had fallen asleep on the balcony again. I let out a sigh, thinking about how I must have drifted off. As I tried to get up, my eyes caught sight of a vibrant red rose in full bloom.

My heart skipped a beat as I stared at the blooming rose. It was as if my wish had been granted overnight. I couldn't help but smile widely, feeling a strange sense of connection with the flower.

"Thank you," I whispered to the rose, feeling a mix of gratitude and anticipation. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but deep down, I couldn't shake off the feeling that this was a sign.

With a newfound excitement, I hurriedly got up and went about my morning routine. Today was going to be another day of shooting, and I was determined to give my best performance.

As I arrived on set, the atmosphere was bustling with activity. People were getting ready, props were being set up, and the camera crew was busy adjusting their equipment. I took a deep breath and tried to focus on the task at hand.

"Jimin, you're here early," Lisa's voice caught my attention as she approached me.

"Yeah, I just wanted to be prepared," I replied with a nervous smile.

"Good attitude," she nodded approvingly. "Today, we have some intense scenes lined up, so make sure you're ready."

"Of course I will do my best!" I giggled and bounced my steps towards the set, my eyes searching for a certain person.



There he is...



He was wearing a black outfit again. He looked even more handsome, and today, instead of shouting at everyone, he remained silent, which only added to his allure.

With a wide smile, I approached him. Gently opening my backpack, I took out the red rose that had bloomed in my balcony. I wanted to give it to him; he was the only one deserving of a gift from me.

"This is for you, Director-nim," I said with a giggle, offering him the rose.

I giggled even more as he took the rose from my hand, but my happiness was short-lived when he tossed the rose into a nearby trash bin.
