F L O W E R

One day, I was out for quite a while. The mansion was turned upside down. I think it was because the head maid noticed I wasn't in the room and alerted my father.

Perhaps that's why, as soon as I got back to the mansion, I was called in by my father without even changing my clothes. As everyone expected, I got a huge scolding. They asked me why I left, and asked me if I had any idea how dangerous the world outside was. I got a scolding for everything.

Today, for the first time, I hated my father, who pretended to care about me. In reality, the outside world is just a place where people live. It's a place where people work hard to make a living. I couldn't stand my father discriminating against me because of my social status.

The walk back to my room felt incredibly long. Perhaps it was the moonlight streaming through the hallway window, or perhaps it was the night, or perhaps it was the night when no one was watching me. I felt a mixture of emotions swirling inside me.

I walked forward with a heavy heart. The more I walked, the more depressed I became, so I ran without thinking. The door was right ahead. If I just went a little further, my room would greet me. Even though the door was right in front of me, I didn't go in.

Suddenly, my leg muscles gave out, and I collapsed to the ground. I crossed my legs, rested my head on my knees, and stared blankly at the floor. Why am I like this? Why do I hurt so much? I feel empty somewhere. What is this? I was clearly happy just now, but why am I so sad now?

A surge of emotions surged up from nowhere. When I came to, tears of unknown origin were welling up in my eyes.

If love was this painful, I wouldn't have even started it.

Is Jia okay now?

박지민

huh.

Jia?

It's a strange name. It seems like a woman's name. Is it friendly? Would she be kind to him?

At first, it was simple curiosity. Then it was jealousy.

권지아

Oppa!

Then there is emptiness.

박지민

Are you feeling better now?

권지아

Yeah! Thanks to you, I'm so energetic.

박지민

That's fortunate.

I was moved to tears when I saw her stroking my hair with such loving eyes, unlike mine.

한서희

……….

Like an idiot, I couldn't say anything.

한서희

I hate it so much, really… … .

I cried. I cried at the end of the wide hallway. My cries echoed even though they didn't need to. If it was going to be like this, why was I so affectionate?

Even the warmth wrapped in a sharp knife makes my heart flutter. Jimin's gaze, which was truly warm inside and out, was so different from his gaze, which was only warm on the outside.

I hate myself for being so self-conscious. I feel so pathetic. I wanted to go see Jimin, but I don't even know where his house is. How could I go?

I just wrote it down in a hurry...

Joo-ah is not a villain! Please refrain from badmouthing the character 🙏🏻

Please consider this episode a mini-story. Even though it's nothing special, it's a chance for the relationships and atmosphere between the characters to change drastically. 😃
