Hello everyone!

How are you doing?

I was looking at the stats the other day and was happy to see the number of male readers increased. So Hi, guys! Sending you love!

Sending love everyone!

"10 minutes!!" the stage manager shouted.

Here and there, bunches of dancers simultaneously raised their heads at the cry, then went back to their stretching, chatting, texting or drinking.

The break was nearly over and Jimin was trying to relax his tense muscles as best as he could after hours and hours of hard, relentless efforts.

He heard his phone buzz and he shivered.

He was nervous about checking the caller's ID.

He had been getting all those weird messages recently.

He couldn't help but wondering if that was yet another one.

Hae Wong surely knew that at that time of the day, he was rehearsing.

So there was little chance the text would be from his... "prince"?

Jimin felt uneasy about the word...

Was he still comfortable at calling him that?

The word had seemed to lose a little of its luster recently.

What if all those strange messages bore some truth in them?

How come they contained so accurate, detailed information?

No, no, Jimin could hardly believe it.

How could he even trust some unknown, malevolent stranger more than his true love?

More than the one he gave his full heart and soul to?

No way.

He had faith in his man.

Obviously, his high position no doubt triggered jealousy and ill intentions in some people.

But then...

... how come he would feel this sting in his heart whenever he read those evil-meant comments on his phone?

He stared at the black screen in his hand for some more seconds.

Obviously it was all made up.

Besides, he couldn't stay away from his phone for ever anyway, right?

He took a deep breath in, braced himself up and slid his screen unlocked.

"My fiance is so caring... <3 <3 <3"

Ugh! Another weird message... he sighed.

The top part of a photo appeared under the written line.

Jimin scrolled down hesitatingly until the picture was fully displayed.

On the left hand-side, a large bunch of purple, yellow and striped carnations was wrapped into pretty paper and bow.

On the right hand-side, a tiny, velvety box containing ruby earrings stood open.
