Chapter One
[ NOTE: The event at the Prologue had been a year ago already. It’s just a little imaginary continuation on the He’s Beautiful ending]
“Hey! Mi Nam got news in here!” Jeremy announced first thing in the morning. “Would you mind being more quiet in here?” Shin Woo said as he glared at the childish member of A.N. JELL. “So, what’s the news all about?” Tae Kyung asked with a stern look.
“It’s actually intended for Tae Kyung—” but before Mi Nam could finish his sentence, President Ann came in to the scene and shouted happily, “Congratulations, Mi Nam! I cannot believe you’ve been engaged to National Fairy!”
“What??? So, it’s true that you’re engaged with He Yi?” Jeremy said in disbelief. “I thought it was only a rumor,” Shin Woo added. “We should celebrate! What do you think, Mi Nam?” Jeremy asked as he put his arms around Mi Nam.
It’s true that Mi Nam and He Yi had been going out but they are not yet engaged. They haven’t even move on the next level, couples. They’re just friends but reporter Kim misunderstood their hang outs with each other.
After minutes of silence, Mi Nam asked, “Who confirmed that it was true?” President Ann had to laugh before he answered. “Yoo He Yi herself. Actually, reporter Kim Young Woo was the one who told me about it. When he came to interview He Yi, she was wearing an engagement ring and she told him that she was engaged to a special someone in her life,” President Ann answered, full of honesty. “Oh, right. Reporter Kim must have thought it was me since He Yi and I had been going out but…it isn’t really me, President. She’s not even my girlfriend. Maybe it’s someone else?” Mi Nam answered. Though feeling a little bit hurt that she’s engaged he managed to smile. Man, what luck.
“Yeah, stop bothering Mi Nam. Maybe he’s not yet ready to reveal the truth about it,” Shin Woo said. “Okay, then. I’ll get going. Oh, by the way Tae Kyung, Mi Nam told me that Mi Nyu, her twin sister, is arriving so you better pick her up from the airport. Okay?” President Ann informed and left.
“Mi Nyu has arrived?” Tae Kyung asked in disbelief. “Yes. She has. That was what I was about to tell you when President Ann suddenly came and told nonsense,” Mi Nam replied and stormed out. “What’s wrong with him?” Jeremy asked only to receive shrugging shoulders from Shin Woo.
“I’m going now. I have been asked to pick up Mi Nyu,” Tae Kyung said as he excused himself. “Weird. Doesn’t he like she’s arriving?” Jeremy asked and again, Shin Woo only shrugged. “Stop shrugging, Shin Woo! It’s annoying,” Jeremy whined cutely…as always. “I’m sorry. It’s because I don’t know the real answers, okay?” Shin Woo said, a little bit annoyed. “OK!” Jeremy answered with a frown and walked out of the room.
“But seriously, Tae Kyung isn’t even excited on meeting her after a year?” Shin Woo asked himself. He too, was confused about the happenings now. He’s also confused about the issue on Mi Nam and He Yi. “Eh! I don’t need to bother it. They can solve it themselves,” Shin Woo told himself and walked out of the room as well.
Meanwhile, Tae Kyung was driving to Inch eon Airport to pick up Mi Nyu. “I can’t believe that Mi Nyu has finally arrived after this,” Tae Kyung told himself. Finally, he reached the airport and headed inside.
He had been waiting for five minutes when he heard someone call him from the back. “Tae Kyung-ah!” the voice called, heading towards him. He turned around and saw a lady with long hair and beautiful face. Yes, it is definitely Mi Nyu. He noticed that she was wearing a familiar hairclip. Oh, that’s right. That was the 3,000…err, 100000 WON worth hairclip he bought for her before.
“Wait…didn’t it break before?” Tae Kyung asked himself. Then, he suddenly remembered how desperate she was back then to find the hairclip no matter what. Though, he was not sure that time if she really looked for it. That was also the time when her fingers were stuck together after she glued the broken piece of it. That’s right, she fixed it.
Tae Kyung snapped out of his reverie when he felt a warm embrace. He was being hugged by Mi Nyu. “Mi Nyu, you’re back,” he softly whispered. “Yeah,” Mi Nyu answered and released him from the hug. “Hyung-nim…ah~ oppa, did you notice something?” Mi Nyu asked. “Your hair grew long, is that it?” Tae Kyung asked. Though, he had a feeling that she was pointing at the hairclip.
“Yeah, something like that…what else?” Mi Nyu asked eagerly. “Ah, I know! You’re wearing the hair—wait; I thought that, that clip broke already?” Tae Kyung asked. “Well, yes but that night when I heard that it was broken, I went back to the theater or something just to get it back and I found it and then I glued them together and as a result, my fingers were stuck together when you came,” Mi Nyu explained. “Ah~ I remember now. So, that was the reason?” Tae Kyung asked, playing around.
“Wait, where’s the necklace I gave you?” Tae Kyung asked. “Oh, which one was it? The star necklace, look! I got star earrings as well,” Mi Nyu said, changing the topic. “Really, where is it?” Tae Kyung asked with a serious look. “I…someone stole it from me in Japan,” Mi Nyu admitted as she lowers her head down, embarrassed. “Japan? I thought you were in…?” Tae Kyung paused, trying to think where she was before.
“I was but then I got transferred to Japan. I’m so sorry, Tae Kyung. I really did not mean to. I took care of it but then I was absentminded that I did not notice someone stole it from me until I got home,” Mi Nyu said, her eyes already with tears.
Tae Kyung was dumbfounded. Not only that but also furious and something else he cannot explain. “Yah, I thought you would keep it because I was the one who caught it for you and that you will never let go!? Now it’s just like saying that you lost me and let go of me!” Tae Kyung shouted as Mi Nyu took a step backwards a little.
“What are you saying?” Mi Nyu asked, confused. “You go by yourself!” Tae Kyung said and left Mi Nyu standing there, shocked. “Hyung— oppa!” Mi Nyu called but Tae Kyung kept walking.

A.N. JELL HOUSE
“I’m hungry!” Jeremy whined for the nth time. “Shut up!!!” Shin Woo shouted in annoyance. “Hey, Shin Woo. Don’t ‘shut up’ Jeremy. And you Jeremy go get something to eat so you would stop whining. It’s annoying,” Mi Nam said and turned his attention back to the television. ‘I never got and never will get use to this type of Mi Nam. I wonder when his twin sister will be here,’ Shin Woo thought to himself and watched with Mi Nam.
“Oh, yeah! I found snacks! Yah, Shin Woo-hyung, move over there so I could sit down,” Jeremy said as Shin Woo obliged. Jeremy was happy that he found food. Just as he was about to take a bite of his food, someone rang the doorbell that he had to halt his move and headed towards the door. “Just as I was about to take a bite,” he told himself and opened the door.
“Tae Kyung-hyung, why are you here all alone?” Jeremy asked with a scrunched face. When Mi Nam heard that Tae Kyung arrived, he quickly got up to greet his sister but to his disappointment, Tae Kyung was alone. “Yah, where’s my sister?” Mi Nam asked. “I’m tired, okay? I’m going in my room now. Just wait for her,” Tae Kyung said plainly and walked towards the entrance of the piano room leading to his room.
Minutes later, someone rang the doorbell and this time, Mi Nam opened the door and saw his sister. “Mi Nyu!” he called and hugged her. “Oppa! Hmm, congrats by the way,” Mi Nyu said as she released the hug. “Huh?” Mi Nam asked in confusion. “Congrats on your engagement with Yoo He Yi-yang,” Mi Nyu replied. “About that…” Mi Nam trailed off.
