LM POV

Living alone for the past 9 years was tough. I have no friends, I have no parents. I only have Mino to take care of me. He is doing a great job at it. As much as he loves me, he can never give me the love of a parent. My parents died in a car accident right after they set me as the inheritance of their assets. Mino told me, the plan should be done before they set my name but they manage to do it fast. I cried a lot that day and never trust a single person. My parents left me a letter to only trust Mino and also Gang Yoo, the person who will be CEO after the passing of my parents.

I was home schooled due my traumatize experience until one day I suddenly dared myself to go to my mailbox that is far from my mansion. I missed my parents so much that I thought they left me another letter. I was walking and crying when suddenly I found an envelope with a letter inside. I ran back to my house and eagerly open the letter. Apparently it is not from my parents. It was from a girl by the name of J.R.J.K and she wrote that she is really sad and wanted someone to hear her.

Ever since that day, I kept the entire letter. Every month, there will be a new letter coming in. I never had a chance to know who the writer is. All I know she is a girl as I saw going to my mailbox. Knowing me that I'm scared of meeting people, I hide behind one of the tree. I can only see the side profile of the girl and after that the back of the girl. She looks really short and cute from behind. I never had other chance to meet her after that but I continue to keep her letter and reading it. Somehow it gave me strength to carry my daily life. I even promised to introduce myself to her when I'm big enough.

9 years has passed, 108 of letters. Some of it really gets me mad when she writes about her cousin; Kai that beats her and also his sister by the name of Jisoo. Sometimes I can feel she actually cried on the letter stating she is so sad with what happen to her but she also writes that she will never give up. I am 18 years old now and Gang Yoo will be teaching me on how to handle the company bit by bit. I am not the CEO as I don't want that position yet and let Gang Yoo decides. And that is the last time I last received the letter. After I reached the age of 18, the letters stop. I am miserable thinking the person is gone. I am determined to search for her.

So slowly I encourage myself to spend time outside of the mansion. Mino was glad that I can walk outside without any hesitation. I sometimes go to the shop alone just to make sure that I can overcome my trauma. At certain time, I achieved it but sometime I just came back crying due to the fear I'm feeling.

"Miss Lalisa.. your breakfast is ready" Mino call for me as I was in the living room thinking about the letter.

"Okay Mino, and just call me Lisa.. How many times should I remind you" Mino is like my father and he took care of me really well. He didn't even have partner at all. His dedication to me can be seen from his eyes that he wants me safe. Mino just laugh and make sure I eat all the breakfast and gave me the vitamins I should be eating.

"Mino, today I want to walk around the city. Can I? I want to look at people around me and to make sure I can overcome my trauma" I told Mino in advance so that he can arrange me a driver that will take me around the city. Mino just nods and smile. Mino rarely talk and when he talk, he means business.

Once I finished breakfast, I went up to get ready. Just a normal sweat pants and shirt should be enough. Nobody knows me which why I am so glad. I keep my bang straight and went to the Seoul City. I brought a camera with me as it is a hideout item if I don't want to talk or see people. I will pretend to hold the camera. I even got better at photography because of that.

The city is full of people, walking around, running to subway. It's a busy time. I walking around the shops and having my own sweet time analysing people when bump!

"Ouch!" I accidentally said out loud because someone just literally hit me.

"Oh my God, I am so sorry Miss. Sorry sorry.." The girl just bows 90 degree while saying sorry. Me being afraid to confront people just look down and trying to get up. She was trying to pick me up when I panic and accidentally push her away from me. I can see her stiff looking at me. I didn't look at her face because my fear is pushing through me.

"That's okay, I can get up myself. I'm sorry too for not seeing you" I told her and I can see her body relax a little. I was about to look at her when I saw her friend drag her. I can hear she shouts the word Sorry to me. She looked familiar and I am not sure if I hear it correct, I heard she call her friend Jisoo?

I know I remember Jisoo somewhere. Oh yeah, the letter! Is she the girl I'm looking for? I was about to follow them but then I realize they are no longer there. It seems that both of them are late for something. Well another day then. Maybe one day, I will know who wrote that letter. And that person will be mine. I will keep her safe and live happily ever after. This is my promise to her. I will be strong for her.

I was walking along the street and stop to take one or two picture with me. Then I smell something nice and my averted to the restaurant. I was looking at it when I saw someone is looking at me, is that the girl that bump into me just now? The I saw another lady walking behind her and I can confirm it is her. Her feline eyes are so mesmerizing. Wait stop! Your mission is to find the letter J.R.J.K. Do not avert your mind someone else! I quickly averted my eyes away from her and walked away. I didn't even return her smile that she throws at me. How insensitive I am! Stupid Lisa!

I walked away promising myself to go to the restaurant soon and apologize to the mystery woman.
