Everything I use here is mine, except BTS and the members, as I made the plot and the plot is made up for your entertainment.

"Isabella! This book has been in your room for five years now! I think you need to return it before it turns into stealing,"

I sighed heavily, using this as an opportunity to stay away from my annoying older sister. Always bragging about her boyfriend as if he isn't going to cheat on her.

Making the walk slow, it made me realise how much of nature I've been missing out on. The thin leaves waving about with the flowers that showed their true colours though they were slowly falling off.

Entering the library, I expected the ringing of the bell make the old man to appear out of the back doors and greet me like he always used to but today, there was no one here.

Maybe it's closed, but the why would it say that it's open?

"Um hello, it's Isabella," I tried calling out, thinking the old man was going to come over and say hello but no response.

Seeing no one came, I decided to sneakily put the out of date book back in the bookshelf without anyone knowing. There was only one problem, they changed the shelf section for my book to be at the top of the bookshelf.

"Why do I have to be so short in these situations?" I muttered to myself, going to the tip of my toes and it still didn't help.

"You need help with that?" The voice came from behind me but it didn't belong to the worker of the library.

Quickly, I turned around to see a tall man that had tan skin. He had almond-shaped eyes with monolids that held no emotion in them.

He had quite plump lips, and really prominent dimples as he gave a small smile. Also, he had a medium-sized nose that was quite  button-like.

"Oh, yes please," I quickly replied, handing him the book and stepping back .

I didn't even realise when I was staring at his handsome face for so long, he then, not going on his tippy toes, slid the book into the shelf with such ease.

"Feel free to call me if you need help with the high shelves, my name is Min-Su by the way,"

With that, the guy called Min-Su left my side, going back to the desk though his smell still lingered about, making me feel shy to ask him anything.

Luckily after a few minutes, the old man came in and explained that he was going to be in vacation with his wife for a couple of weeks. I couldn't help but be in awe of the old couple that have been together for 30 years.

"I hope you have a good time," I said gently, using my sweet voice with the couple.

Suddenly, I couldn't help but feel someone was staring at me, only looking to my side to see Min-Su glancing straight at me before then focusing on the window.

Quickly I looked back to the couple, who had gave each other a knowing look on...

"Hita, I'm back,"

Hita quickly hurried from upstairs with her loud steps and came to give me a hug. Even though, Hita was the oldest by a year, I tried to be the big sister after Mother's death.

"What happened? I thought you said you were just going to drop one book in the library," Hita asked worriedly.

"Something came up,"

Feeling my cheeks reddened of the thought of Min-Su and Hita got the message completely.

"So, who's this fine man that you like then, huh," Hita teased, dragging me to the living room and making me sit down.

"It's not like that! It's just-!"

"Come on Isabella! This is the first time you've ever liked someone! This could be your soul mate!"

Soul mate? Aren't soul mates just a fantasy? Why would I have a soul mate? Who would like me...
