after filling her tummy, she walked towards her house.. it was nearby so she was taking a slow walk in the chill breeze that passed her face, giving her a little smile..

that's when she felt like someone was calling her.. she squinted her eyes before turning back.. "hey.. young lady.. you" the old man with grey beard that covered half of his face called her, pointing out with a smile..

she pointed herself before looking behind... there was none.. so she walked towards him who was smiling at her.. "eh, ahjusshi?" she asked while the man spoke out with the same grin on his face..

"ain't you new here, dear?" he asked, while her eyes widened a little, but she sooner nod her head as a yes.. "yeah.. how- how do you know?" she questioned.. "I know everyone in this surroundings" he uttered...

"oh-.. you called me" she asked, while the man turned, showing a traditional queen style mirror... that's when she looked around, it was a mirror shop, reflecting herself in every angle possible..

"you wanna buy this? I guess you are in need of one" the man said, felt like he has seen that her house has no mirror inside it.. "um.. yeah.. I need one.. but.. " she hesitated while the man chuckled...

"I know you will buy it" he said, while she doesn't understand how he was so confident about her... she felt like she was being hypnotised by the strange man... "okay" she said, while the man smiled widely before handing over the mirror to her... it was huge one but weighed so light in her arms..

she paid and thanked him before moving away...

something was unanswered yet she didn't raise her voice to question it..

Meanwhile,

"Yah... why are you always around me? and why the hell did you come along with me?" Jin was scolding, almost rapping at the little nephew of his.. the boy follows him everywhere he goes..

"I told you to stay inside your room" jin yelled at the boy who was having ice cream happily, not listening any of his words... "you came with me for the free food, ain't you?" jin said, while the boy grinned as he was saying the truth...

"you know that.. you eat a lot, so you buy one for me too" the boy chuckled, while jin rolled his eyes, but found cute which he didn't want to show it.. "you better score well in your exams, then I can buy a whole ice cream shop for you" jin said..

"Jinjja?... ah jinjja?" the boy blocked jin, while jin looked down at the little boy who was only upto his waist.. "yeah.. now don't block my way" jin shoved his hands, before burying his hands inside his pockets, walking away..

"then I will defintely score 90 and I'm gonna have ice cream every day" the boy jumped in happiness, while jin suppressed his smile that formed on his plump lips..

that's when jin stopped at the shop, which grabbed his attention.. it was a mirror shop.. "come.. let's go inside" jin said, as he grabbed the little boy's wrist and dragged him inside it.. that's when a girl passed him with a traditional queen style mirror in her bare hands, walking outside..

jin held the mirror, which made the girl stop on her actions.. it was yn.. she tried to peek at the person's face, but jin was holding it tightly, couldn't able to move any inch further..

"How did you born so handsome?" jin asked, as he stared at himself in the mirror.. yn's eyebrows squinted.. "ahjussi... I wanna go.. you can flirt with yourself later" yn spitted out in complete annoyance.. she couldn't believe she met someone like this in seoul on the very first day...

"Impatient ahjumma" jin mumbled, before leaving the mirror, walking past yn, didn't giving any glance at the girl...

before her eyes fell on jin, her eyes landed on the cute little kid's face, that was stained with ice cream..

"He is crazy" the boy pointed his forefinger on his little head and spun it cutely, making yn chuckle... "okay" she whispered before going outside, without starring at the tall young man who walked inside...

"So... did you get something new, stylish mirrors?" Jin questioned, staring at the mirrors around him.... the old man smirked, before pulling out the king styled mirror...
"this would be perfect" the man said, while jin squinted his long thick brows..

"I guess so" jin uttered, starring at it.. he paid it without asking anything or even bargaining cause he is the king of bargaining the prices... "see you" jin said, before going out but stopped at the old man's words..

"it will show you the best reflection of your soul

mate"

after a long day at the first day of her office, she had a hot shower before having her dinner... she came out of the bathroom with a long night gown and a towel on her hands, drying out her wet hairs..

humming a song she walked towards the mirror that she newly bought... she was humming, looking down, before raising her eyes, straight looking at the mirror...

"ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

she screamed as she saw someone else's face other than hers own..

"eommma..... ghost" the one in the mirror screamed, gaining her attention..

"yah.. who the hell are you?" she said, as she turned back at her bed room.. there was none..

"I should ask you.. who the fuck are you? how did you come into my house? no.. my mirror? where's my worldwide handsome face?" the boy yelled, while her eyes widened but scrunched in great confusion..

"what?"
