A handsome man stopped in front of her. "Here you are, Tannie," he said, taking the dog in his embrace. Their eyes met, and Mia looked away. He chuckled and patted her head like a dog. "We will meet again," he said. Mia looked away from his face in annoyance.

“Hey, why are you ignoring me?" he asked. Mia glared at him. “Don't you understand I don't wanna talk?'' she said. Taehyung frowned and sat on the empty side while caressing Tannie's hair. “Whenever I meet you, you always look upset. Why?" Taehyung asked. ''Who are you to me, no one, so stay within your limits, mister,'' Mia said.

“Looks like someone hurt you more than anyone. You know, if you share your feelings with a stranger, it'll help you relieve the burden from pain, and I'm here to listen," Taehyung said.

Mia clenched her fist and bit her lips in frustration. “You will make fun of me," Mia whispered, but Taehyung heard it. “No, believe your heart, and you can share with anyone if you don't trust me," Taehyung said, waiting for her to say something, but she didn't. He thought she didn't trust him, and it was completely fine for him. He stood up and gave a last glance. “I hope you find someone whom you can share your feelings with," Taehyung said and was going, but Mia held his wrist.

“Please stay," Mia whispered, making his heart race. Suddenly, he felt warmth inside his heart. He decided to listen to her, and she began telling her story from the start—how she brought a girl whom he completely avoided and then the person she loved who also rejected her and was going to marry someone else. Even her parents were blaming her….











Taehyung looked shocked and also felt pity for her. Somewhere he felt she wanted love and didn't find it in her parents, so she decided to love someone. His heart clenched; only her son could hear. He patted her head again.

“You know, Mia, you are lucky. You think you don't get love, and it's also a reason. But what if God has another plan for you? Don't be stuck in the past. You can't force someone to love you; love comes from the heart, and he is not made for you. Believe me, you will find someone in your life," Taehyung said. Mia looked at him with teary eyes.

“In my stubborn attitude, my parents stopped talking to me. Do you think I deserved it? I don't even know why I always hate her when it's not even her fault. She also craves for the same love which I also want," Mia said.

“You feel guilty now. You know your parents will never be angry with you. They are just sad that for some time everything will happen. You know they are bound in responsibility to you and your sister. You have to be mature to think, do you want to know something?" Taehyung asked Mia, nodding her head.

“First, wipe your eyes. You know I was like you before," Taehyung said. Mia looked at him with wide eyes, shifting her attention to him….










“I was like you, Mia, before. I was a child when my parents left me alone in an orphanage. The Jeon family took care of me and did everything to make me happy, but somewhere I still wasn't satisfied. I wasn't feeling family love. Whenever I saw their son getting all the attention, I felt jealous. In that jealousy, one day I pushed their son down the stairs.

 I was trembling in place when I saw him lying in a pool of blood on the floor. I was glad Mrs. Jeon came at the right time and took him to the hospital. Mr. Jeon and Mrs. Jeon didn't know who did it, and I was trembling in fear, thinking they would leave me because I hurt their child and tried to kill him. I was afraid that if their son told the truth, suddenly the doctor came and said he was fine and conscious. Mrs. Jeon also took me inside. I was waiting for him to say everything to his parents, but he didn't. My eyes looked at him, giving me a smile. I choked up that time with teary eyes, knowing he saw me as an elder brother. When his parents were gone, I asked why he did not say, and he said because no matter what, he still loved me as an elder brother, and he said it's a secret between us. That time, I knew it was my jealousy that ruined me. I tried to overcome it, and you know the most important thing, Mia?" Taehyung asked. Mia shook her head in disbelief.
