Minami told me to wait. But she never came back. I, every day and all day.. No, for weeks, I went to look for Minami. Then, her student approached me, "Is Teacher Minami sick? Why hasn't she been here these days?". "I don't know.. I keep on looking for her but I can't find her.", I said. Then, I went around the university, and went to her co-Teachers. "Teacher! The thing is, I can't contact Minami Okamoto. By any chance, do you have her cellphone number? And.. do you know where she is?", I asked. "I only know her cellphone number, but I don't know where she is. I wonder where she went. Without any notice too.", her co-Teacher said. Then, I went around and asked some of the workers. "Hi. By any chance, do you know where Minami Okamoto is?", I asked. "I'm sorry, but there isn't a person named Minami Okamoto in this department.", the lady said. It was strange, because Minami works in that university as an english teacher. "There's no way, she is a teacher in this school! Please double check it again.", I said. "I looked at this record already. There isn't a name like Minami Okamoto.", the lady said. How could something like that happen? After that, I looked throughout the whole school and even looked for people with similar names. But, Minami was nowhere to be found. The next day, I met with Minami's co-Teacher/ friend named Tiffany Lee. "Oh, Mr. Park! Your face has gotten so bad. You still haven't been able to meet Teacher Minami?", she said. "Yes. Teacher, I'm leaving tomorrow. I wrote this letter for Minami. Umm.. if you happen to see Minami, would you please give this letter to her?", I said. "Oh, is that so? Sure. I will. Don't lose hope, Mr. Park. You'll meet again if it's fate. If only one holds onto the red string of fate, you won't be able to meet. But if you guys hold it together, you'll be able to meet. Please believe me.", Teacher Tiffany said. After meeting with Teacher Tiffany, I went home and packed my things already. The next day, I did an audition for the TV Drama, "Lovely Girl". This time, with the stage name "Yohan Park". "Mr. Yohan Park? Try acting a bit for me please.", the director said. These were the words I said while acting: "I'm not worth anything to you right? But, you are everything to me. Why can't you love me too? Is that so hard? I waited 10years for you! When I saw you again, my heart beats so fast like crazy. Sorts of different thoughts came in to my mind.", the director told me to stop, and said, "Alright Mr. Park, hold on a second. Would you please try to act the lines from this script? Page 20, 12th line. Give the script to him.". This is where I already started crying. These were the lines from the script: "I.. I love you for a thousand reasons. But, the reason why I truly love you is because of who you are.. Just because of who you are.", the lines were actually more than that. But after saying those words during the audition, I cried so hard already. The director was impressed of my acting skills, the staff and producers clapped at me as well. That day, the lead star was fired, and the lead star of the show was already me. And my life changed due to that drama as well. I was discovered because of that drama, and after that drama, I was called for different projects. MD entertainment's most famous star that time became me. I couldn't believe it. During the decisive moments in my life, Minami was always with me.
