After the hug, they walked home together in a comfortable silence. Huilin looked at Do-yoon and made a sign, her eyes full of  apology. "I am sorry for suddenly hugging you like that," she signaled.

Do-yoon looked at her gently. "Well, I don't know what happened at the cafe or what is bothering you," he said softly, "but I want to tell you-don't push yourself so hard. Just let those things go. Just be yourself." He smiled to reassure her. "And about that hug..... it's okay."

When they reached the house, Do-yoon told her, "Go inside and take some rest." Huilin made a sign, asking where he was going. "I'm going to my friend's house for a while," he replied.

Huilin went inside, where Tong-yoon was waiting. "Dinner is ready! Let's eat together, and later we can sit in the garden, drink coffee, and talk," Tong-yoon said warmly. But Huilin signs that she wasn't feeling well and needed to rest. She went straight to her room, her mind still spinning.

Meanwhile, Do-yoon reached his friend's house. His phone rang-it was his mother. She asked urgently, "Did you do something to Huilin? She seems upset."

Do-yoon sighed. "There is nothing like that, Mom. Maybe she is just tired." He then told her he wouldn't be coming home that night because he was staying with his friend, and he hung up the phone.

His friend, Lee Jung, had been watching him. He smirked and asked, "Do you love that girl? What's her name....oh yeah, Huilin?"

Do-yoon looked away. "I don't know.... but I can't see her in pain like that."

Lee Jung laughed. "Bro, you are falling in love with her. Whenever you say her name, your face shines. It looks like Huilin has your soul."

When Do-yoon heard those words, his heart skipped a beat. It was as if the light had been turned on. He didn't say a word; he simply grabbed his car keys and his jacket.

"Where are you going?" Lee Jung called out, but Do-yoon didn't reply.

He raced toward his car. All the way home, his only thought was of her. He finally understood the "Love Alarm" in his heart. Do-yoon had found his feelings for Huilin-he realized she wasn't just a guest in his house; she was the missing piece of his life.

When Do-yoon reached the house, his heart was still racing. He saw his mother walking toward her room and he asked quickly, "Where is Huilin?"

Tong-yoon looked up and whispered, "she is sleeping in her room. She seemed very tired."

Do- Yoon nodded and went to his own room. He sat on the edge of his bed, his head in his hands. He kept hearing Lee Jung's words: "She has your soul." He wondered how he could ever confess his feelings to her. How do you tell a girl who lives in silence that she is the music in your heart?

But Huilin was not sleeping. The walls of her room felt too small for heavy emotions inside her. She had quietly slipped out into the garden-the very place where she had first met Do-yoon.

Under the silver glow of the moon, she opened her diary. The scent of the dried lavender leaf she had tucked filled the air. She began to write her emotions, her pen moving across the paper like a heartbeat. She wrote the final lines of her heart's secret:

                    "I am not scared from my past anymore, I was

                      just scared from my garden-Scared of losing

                      its lavender, And the fragrance of love which

                     held them bloom. It is the love that makes the

                    flowers shine, to Show her Galaxy of his where

                                         She is his Queen."

She closed the dairy and looked up at the star. To her, Do-yoon wasn't just a man; he was the creator of this "Galaxy " where she finally felt s

Author's Note:
