Prologue: March 25, Monday

At the end of March, there's this young woman wearing a purple off-shoulder and a denim skirt that is also left by her friends.

"Hmm... I wonder where'd they go this time? And why the hell did they leave me here with no one to be with?! Argh! Naneun jjajeungna manhi (I am annoyed a lot)! Are they really my friends or what!?"

Complained the young woman walking around the mall that's been left behind by her friends. As she continues to roam around the mall while busy messaging her friends, she bumped into a tall young man who's wearing a black cap and a black face mask, making him drop the shopping bags that he's holding.

"J-joesonghabnida (I'm sorry)! I-I didn't m-mean to bump you."

Apologized of the young woman to the young man as she bows down to him to show her sincerity.

"Gwaenchanhseubnida (It's okay). No one got hurt."

Replied the young man to the young women as he started picking up his shopping bags that he dropped when she bumped into him.

"Let me help you with that."

Offer of the young woman to the young man and started picking up the shopping bags, too. After they picked up all those shopping bags, the young woman gave it back to the young man.

"Thank you so much for helping me."

Thanked the young man to the young woman while showing his smile through his mesmerizing eyes. The young woman blushed without even knowing it to herself and stared unconsciously at the young man.

"Yeonae-ya! WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?! We're looking all over for you!"

Yelled the young man wearing gray shorts and white t-shirt. The young woman, Yeonae, looked angrily at the young man that called her then crosses her arms.

"You are the ones who left me there without saying anything."

Said Yeonae when the young man who called her and their two other friends now stands in front of her.

"You looked familiar oppa (older guy *female to male*)..."

Said the young woman with curly hair, dark skin and a friend of Yeonae to the young man wearing black cap and a black face mask. The young man raises both his eyebrows and took a step back away from the young woman with curly hair.

"I-I got to go. Thank you again for helping me, Yeonae-ssi (Ms. Yeonae)."

Said the young man to Yeonae, bowed then quickly walked away. Yeonae quickly gaze at the young man that walked away and tried to follow him.

"Gidariseubnida (Wait)! I don't even know your name!"

Shouted Yeonae to the young man as she continues to follow him, leaving her friends behind.

"Maybe next time when we meet again!"

Replied the young man to Yeonae as he quickly disappeared in the ocean of people inside the mall. Yeonae finally stopped following that young man and sadly walks back to her friends.

"I wonder when and where will be the next time we'll meet."

Said Yeonae to herself with the hope of seeing that young man again.
