Chapter One: Poems to the heart

Hanni walked into the giant home that was filled with luxuries beyond her own comprehension and reach. Closing the door behind her as it notified her presence inside the home of the Kim's.

A family filled with entrepreneurs and lawyers, a very rich family that have stayed together for a very long time. Hanni has the upmost respect for them. They were also one of the greatest people she's ever met.

"Hanni!" It was Mrs. Kim who came towards her with that motherly smile on her face, her arms extended to greet her with a hug. "How are you, sweetie?" She asked, engulfing Hanni in a hug that the younger could only melt against.

"Not any better than yesterday, but with food in my tummy all is fine." She said as she patted her stomach and Mrs. Kim let out a chuckle. "Food is always the key!" The older woman said as she pulled away from Hanni and linked arms with her, guiding her towards the living room.

"I wanted to ask you for a favor." The older said as she sat them both down on the very expensive couch. Hanni gave her a nod that gestured for her to continue. "Do you mind cleaning Minji's office? It's a hell of a mess and I'm tired of telling her to clean it. She's not a messy person, it's just that her office is never cleaned because she likes it that way for some odd reason." The older said and Hanni gave her a nod.

Three years with them, and Hanni still has no clue of what she looks like. The Kim's don't own family pictures, they're very cold in that department but very kind people and warm in the other departments.

"I'll pay you extra if I must! I just need that place fixed up a bit. Do as much as you can, don't overwork yourself either! Just make sure to leave all of her 'works' on her desk—she's very grumpy whenever someone touches them." Hanni laughed at the eye roll Mrs. Kim let out.

She was the funniest lady ever, and the most sassiest and you could say that that's why they get along well. Mrs. Kim just seems to be an older version of Hanni.

"Alright, I'll do that after the basic cleaning. Any precise dinner you'd like for me to cook up?" Hanni asked and Mrs. Kim sat there in silence for a moment to think. "Anything you want, I'll be home late either way. I'll probably come after your job is done. Just leave my plate there and I promise to eat it." She said and Hanni nodded with a giant smile on her face.

"And of course, Minji never comes down for dinner so just leave it at her door. Such an odd child I have, but I love her regardless." Mrs. Kim said, oblivious to the curious gaze that belonged to Hanni.

She knows basically nothing about Minji at all, just that Minji likes to be alone. She doesn't even know her age! Mrs. Kim swore that one day Hanni will meet her but that day hasn't come yet. She's cleaned Minji's room ever since her first day at the Kim's mansion but not once has she bumped into Minji.

She's always in her office, never steps out of it, probably when she leaves since Mrs. Kim insists that Minji just doesn't want to bother her. It's slightly off knowing that she's never fully alone but practically always is.

Hanni also knows that Minji is the writer of the family, the amazingly poetic one that speaks with diction. Mrs. Kim has told Hanni many times that Minji is an amazing writer, one of the best. She even insists on buying her one of Minji's online books but Hanni doesn't really have the time to read.

Or it's just that her heart already does a jump and a twirl whenever she hears Minji's name though she's never met her before. Falling for someone she has never seen? That's very weird.

"Anyway! I'll get going now. My Uber should be here any moment now." The older woman said as she looked down at her watch and stood up, Hanni following behind to bid her goodbye.

"Ah! Before I forget, Minji already ate so don't worry about making her breakfast—she actually went back to bed, it'd be better if you start off cleaning her office before she wakes up again." Mrs. Kim said as she stepped out the door and headed down the steps.

Hanni yelled out a small 'okay!' As the woman got into her Uber that came right on time. Hanni shut the door softly and let out a sigh. Sometimes she grateful that the Kim family are genuinely clean people, and they keep this mansion looking wonderful.

Hanni headed off to grab the supplies she'll need to clean Minji's office, she's never been in there either so this will be a form of getting to know what Minji is like. Hanni's met her brother, Keeho. And sister, Haerin. But she's never met her.

It's more of curiosity and wonder, Minji was mysterious. Her room was a dark shade of grey with a white marbled floor, a singular nightstand, a 75' TV, and a closet filled with clothes of no color. Plain out black. And it's one of the fanciest rooms of the mansion.

Hanni quietly made her way to Minji's office, opening the door softly as to try and not make much noise as there was a door in the office  that connects to Minji's room. And that's exactly why they have never bumped into each other. Minji has a way of avoiding her.

But that doesn't mean Minji hasn't seen Hanni at all. Minji sees her everyday, she just avoids letting Hanni see her, as Mrs. Kim said, Minji was odd. She's had the worst social life ever since she was a child but that's not the reason why she never lets Hanni find her when it's obvious that she's looking for her.

She's just waiting for the right time to do so, Minji's in love with Hanni, it was a love at first sight for her. She's far from ready to talk to Hanni. She may be all grown up, but she still acts as if she were a kid crushing on the prettiest girl in school. Which wasn't necessarily a lie.

Hanni is the prettiest girl Minji has ever seen.

Hanni looked at the mess of papers scattered on the floor, desk, furniture, and just basically everywhere. She had to decide on where to start, she couldn't spend her whole morning here cleaning the office, though she would but she couldn't. So she headed to Minji's desk which was most important. 

And upon standing there, she was met with hand written poems. Hanni picked up the sheets of papers, supposedly to organize them but instead she found herself reading the cursive handwriting that she barely understood.

"Flowers bloom in her path, the birds chirp a happy melody, the air blows gracefully through her hair. She's the life of everything around her; even the life of me."

Hanni stood there frozen, poems were never her thing when she was in school. She never understood the concept of it. But something about these short poems belonging to Minji piqued at her curiosity and interests.

Hanni put that paper down and scrambled through the bunch to find another one. Once she did, she read through the words slowly.

"My mind, soul, and body are full of her, I'm hardly ever able to call myself mine. My whole existence belongs to her."

And Hanni was surprised to read such impactful words. Minji sounded in love. Governed under the rules of said love. As Hanni kept reading through the poems that were almost like an open door to Minji's mysterious being.

She didn't notice the opened door that belonged to Minji. The tall woman stood there watching as Hanni reached the heart breaking poem that she wrote, specifically for her. Not that the other ones weren't about Hanni. Every single word written on those papers were about Hanni.

Even the book she wrote was about Hanni. She was her inspiration. Minji knows more of Hanni than the shorter woman herself will ever know.

Which now led to tears forming in Hanni's pretty brown eyes.

"Lost in darkness, my hands reaching out for help but I feel no one there. A beg of mercy to be found, held, and consoled through the weeping of my heart. The depth of my love always equaled the broken of my heart. And the loneliness consumes my soul until there is nothing of it left."

And that caused a single tear to fall from Hanni's eyes. She's never related to something so much.
