...It was another beautiful day in Seoul. Spring was around the corner. Spring is a season of colors, refreshing smell and especially season of love. This spring was special for OLIVIA because she didn't know that this spring is gonna fill her gloomy life with colors of love. She didn't know that Cupid was planning to make two beautiful souls to be each other's Destiny. ...
In front of Lotte Tower a group of rich girls were standing and chatting. Jason noticed that one of the girl among them had a wardrobe malfunction so in order to protect her dignity he quickly wrapped his jacket around her skirt.
Stella (girl with wardrobe malfunction): OH! Thank you so much but let me tell you that if you like me you have to prove it coz there are many men who wants to court me. I won't fall for you just because of this small favor.
Jason: Miss, you are misunderstanding my intentions. I just helped you out of good deeds, I had no other intentions of approaching you.
Stella: Young man, if you like me you should tell it straight forward, why are you hiding it.
Jason: Miss, this is really a misunderstanding.
Stella was infuriated by him and her face turned red with anger. She pushed Jason to the ground and asked him that why he is playing hard to get.
Olivia was witnessing this whole incident and couldn't help but interfere. She helped Jason to rise up from the ground and turned towards Stella and said, " I couldn't help but interfere. You still haven't changed a bit. You still think that the world revolves around you. Is it necessary that every time a boy helps you it's because he likes you. You know it better than me that he doesn't like you, you just don't wanna embarrass yourself for what you said in front of your friends. "
Before Stella could speak a word Olivia dragged Jason out from the crowd and brought him in front of her car. Olivia's eyes we're filled with anger. She asked Jason to get inside her car. Being terrified by her fiery look Jason without questioning sat inside her car.
Olivia drove the car to the medical shop and went in to buy some ointments for Jason's injuries. Despite of her tough personality she treated his wounds in a very gentle manner. Jason was quite surprised to see her gentle side.
When she was done dressing his wounds she noticed a young beggar boy fleeing after stealing some passer by's wallet. She ran as fast as possible and chased the little boy to the point that he was exhausted and couldn't run anymore. She was almost out of breath. After catching him she begged to the victim to let him go and not report him to the police cause reporting him would only make his miserable life more complicated. After great efforts that man finally decided not to report the little boy and left.
Olivia asked the beggar boy with a scary look on his face his reason to steal. The child teared up. There was innocence on his face.
The child said, "Miss, I really didn't meant to but me and my younger sister are starving from past few days. My sister is very small and she haven't eaten for past few days. Being a older brother I couldn't watch her starving so I tried to beg to people and collect enough to buy her some food but whenever I tried to beg people used to hit me, insult me and what not. Even though after going through so much pain I was unable to collect enough to fill her stomach. So I had not option but to steal so that I can feed my little innocent sister. "
Olivia was touched by the little boy's innocence and asked him to follow her. Olivia asked Jason to get out of the car and follow her. She took the starving little boy to the restaurant nearby and ordered many delicious dishes for him to eat and ordered Espresso without sugar double strong for herself and cappuccino for Jason. Jason was quite surprised by her weird taste for coffee.
While the food was being cooked Olivia asked the child what situation led him to starve and steal. Now the child was little calm and comfortable with Olivia because he knew that she was trying to help him.
Child's eyes we're filled with tears and his face turned pale. He said, "My parents were taken away by the loan sharks to work for them as they were unable to pay their debt on time, so me and my sister were abandoned in this huge place all by ourselves. There was no one we knew in this big place to ask for help so we ended up in this situation. " The child couldn't speak anymore. Tears trickled down his pale face. Jason tried to comfort the child. After listening to child's miserable story even though being tough Olivia couldn't control her emotions and a tear trickled down her bright beautiful face. Jason noticed her tears and at that very moment he knew that her reaction was not only because of listening to the miserable story of child but their was some other reason behind it too.
Food arrived at the table. Olivia asked the child to eat whatever he wanted to eat. Child ate every bite of delicious food with satisfaction. His pale face turned bright and there was a beautiful smile in his face. Jason was highly impressed by Olivia's kindness, her ability to stand for justice and many things about her. He didn't realised that deep inside his heart he has already started to admire her At rhe same time he was curious about the reason behind Olivia's tears.
After they were done eating Olivia asked for bill but she was informed that the bill was already paid by the gentleman who came along with her. Olivia was impressed by Jason's small contribution in her act of kindness and chose not to question him about anything.
After the child was done eating Olivia packed some food for his younger sister and gave him enough money to feed himself and his little sister for the next few days. She also promised him to take him to the orphanage home at the weekend so that he won't suffer anymore. The boy was grateful to her and thanked her. He left with a big brightening smile on his face.
Outside the restaurant in the passage Jason asked Olivia of he could ask her a question. Olivia agreed. Jason asked her that what was the reason behind her tearing up while listening to the little boy. She smiled and complimented
Jason on being a good observer and see through her. She said, " Since I'm not goanna meet you again in the future let me show you my weakness, let me show you how miserable I am. " She continued "When I was young I was abandoned by my parents because I had a very rare disease. I was abandoned in a place from where I could never return by myself. I spent my days crying and cursing myself for being sick and troubling my parents. After crying for several days I understood that there is no meaning in crying and started to beg people so that I could atleast survive. I even thought of stealing like that little boy did. Everyday went in disappointment.I didn't know what good deeds I had done in my past life that I bumped into the founder of an orphanage home. It was very kind of her to take me in. She educated me, took care of me, cured me, fed me, taught me how to behave in public and what not. I am very thankful to her. She was like my guardian angel. After 3 years I was adopted by a very wealthy family. My happiness was beyond words I thought I would finally receive the warmth of family but little did I know that my life was goanna stay as gloomy as before. I came to know that I was adopted because my foster parents were too busy to keep their child company so they adopted me to keep my stepsister company. Eventually my dad started to love me as of I was his own daughter. His change of behavior towards me led my mother and my sister to be mean towards me and treat me badly. There were times when I wanted to run away but I hanged in for the sake of my father who really loved me, cause I knew if the news of me running away would get out then it would affect his business. When I was independent enough he got me out of that house and asked me to move in into the house bought by him at the center of the city. He provided me with all the necessities. He was just trying to help me out. I was again left alone. Oh! by the way the the girl which pushed you earlier was my stepsister. I hope you have got your answer. "
Olivia couldn't speak anymore. Her face turned pale, brightness from her face vanished, there was no more smile on her face and tears poured out from her caramel colored eyes. A passerby pushed her by mistake and she fell straight into Jason's arms. She was too emotional to think about anything else and just hugged him tightly. She felt the warmth which she had never felt before. She didn't realised that deep inside she already wanted him to be that person who can give her the warmth which she lacked for most of her life. She calmed down and asked him to get inside her car.
