Elena had been searching for the right moment to approach him. "I will be there in minutes," Elena had told her friend earlier, nervously anticipating their meeting.
Her friend couldn't help but tease her, saying, "Are you waiting for him? You know that boy doesn't even notice the popular girls, let alone someone like you."
Elena's confidence wavered as she looked down, clutching a gift she had made for every classmate but him. She explained softly, "I just want to give him this, like I did for everyone else in our class."
Her friend, understanding her determination, offered to wait outside the music club. As she walked away, Elena anxiously watched the entrance.
Finally, she saw him emerge, accompanied by a girl. She mustered a smile and greeted him, "Hi."
However, it was the boy's companion who responded, not him. "What do you want, white bear?" the girl asked.
Flustered, Elena stammered, "No, nothing. I..."
The girl interrupted, "Why are you blocking our way?" She took the boy's hand and led him away, leaving Elena standing there, disheartened.
He was a billionaire from a noble family, while Elena's mother worked as a maid in that very family's home. Her affection for him ran deep, but she knew it wouldn't be easy to get close to him, let alone speak with him. She didn't even consider herself worthy of dreaming about him.

Roan's resentment spilled over as he exclaimed, "No, he's not your son. I know it, and that's why I hate him. Who are his parents? Tell me."
His mother, exasperated, tried to intervene, shouting, "Roan, that's enough!"
But Roan was adamant, not willing to back down. "No, Mom, he's not your son, not our brother. Who is he? Make him leave this house, or I'll go. Min Jimin, are you listening to me?" he shouted.
Jimin, their mother, walked over to his son, trying to calm the situation. "Roan, what do you want? You just want him out of the house? I'll take care of it. Now, come and eat something." He hugged his distressed son.
Roan couldn't contain his frustration. "It's all your perfect idea. I hate you," he cried out, seeking solace from his older brother.
His 22-year-old brother chuckled, asking, "What?
Roan poured his heart out, saying, "What should I do now? Mom wants to kick me out of the house."
Roan had three brothers and one sister, including an elder brother, twin brothers, and a younger girl.
The girl, sitting in front of her elder brother, questioned him with concern. "Oppa, you are our brother. You don't have any other parents. Why are you like this?"
"No, Sasha. I can feel someone's longing for me."
Roan with full of love , hugged his elder brother, "Hyung, who can love you like our Dad and Mom love you? Who can love you like we love you? Then why are you like this? Isn't our love enough for you?"
Come on, let's go inside." The boy said.
But Roan couldn't shake his worry, adding with a pout, "Mom will kill me.
"His elder brother reassured him, saying, "I'll talk to her." But all four of them should help me find my parents," he added.
The four siblings exchanged glances and then nodded in unison. They never said no to their beloved brother.
Hoseoki.... Two warm hands lovingly embraced him from behind.
"Mom," he softly called out.
His mother inquired, concerned, "What's wrong, my child? Has someone hurt you?"
