"She's a dreamer,
and he is her dream"

THEA DREW IN a deep breath, experiencing a combination of anxiety, worry, and serenity. Upon learning of her impromptu assignment from Hyun-ki, Thea promptly agreed without any hesitation. At first, it was intended for Hana to handle the task, but Hyun-ki proposed that Thea would be more suitable due to her close relationship with Mun, indicating a possible successful outcome.

Thea carefully draped the covers over Ju-yeon and Ung-min, who were in a deep slumber, with only their heads resting on the bed while the rest of their bodies laid on the floor. They were near Mun, who remained unconscious by their side, prompting Thea to smile gratefully at the bond between them. She then moved to the edge of the bed, gently grasped Mun's hand, and tenderly touched his forehead with her other hand.

"I'll begin now" Thea murmured in a steady tone, as she softly shut her eyes and noticed a change in her environment, marked by a sudden chill, palpable tension, and unique traits

Thea's eyes gradually opened to a scene where she was surrounded by a thick white mist, hindering her ability to see far into the distance. The entire environment seemed to be veiled in the mist. A sensation of excitement and longing to find Mun surged through her body, causing a shiver to run down her spine.

"I'm in. I'm inside... Mun's mind" Thea declared with a quiver in her voice, her eyes scanning anxiously in every direction, desperately looking for any sign of Mun

"You need to be careful, if you get lost in there—"

"I know. I'll be trapped here" Thea interjected calmly as Hyun-ki expressed his concerns about potential repercussions "Mun! Answer if you can hear me, Mun! Mun?" Thea called out urgently, her voice reverberating through the space as she advanced slowly, her gaze sweeping the area and her pulse racing with a surge of adrenaline

Thea nervously bit her lower lip, unable to locate Mun and apprehensive about becoming ensnared in his thoughts indefinitely if she proceeded. Her gaze sharpened as she observed Mun crouching in the distance, the mist dissipating to unveil him attired in white, his head bowed reverently in front of his residence, his locks cascading gently over his features. A sudden wave of joy flooded through Thea's entire being simultaneously.

"Is that him?" Thea murmured quietly, her breath hitching in her throat as she hurried towards him without any hesitation, nearly tripping in her elation and profound joy

As she felt a swelling sensation in her throat, tears welled up in her eyes, teetering on the brink of spilling over. Anxious, she stood before Mun, who lifted his head upon realizing her presence. Thea was nearly entranced by the profound yet gentle gaze of his doe-like eyes. Despite his vulnerability and sadness, her heart swelled with joy at the sight of him, evoking a desire to envelop him in a comforting embrace for eternity.
