Today was a very bright day in Daegu. Since few weeks the weather had not been as bright as this day. The heavy downpour since a week was no good for the Directress. The sad faces of the children in the orphanage made her heart ache.
The morning sun made it's way through her window. She sat on her office chair with a cup of tea , which was a perfect start for the day.
She was fond of wearing dress with flower patterns and that day she wore a beautiful dress with sunflower design and to match with it she wore a Chelsea and a beautiful rose gold crystal pendant.
The office was not a big one but was simple according to her taste. The room was not a huge one but perfect for a single person to work in.An office chair and desk in the middle of the room, she rather preferred registers rather than modern technology... a bookshelf on her right side which had all the books she read so far and some wall hangings which she loved collecting whenever she had a chance to visit a new place.
She loved when children played in the big playground which was located at the backside of the orphanage.
Her office was on the first floor , the last room which was perfect for her to be able to see all the children roaming around.On the same floor itself there was a huge room for the children who slept on their respective beds.
The ground floor had a room for the working people who were incharge of making meals and of taking care of the children. Following their room their was a huge kitchen which included the dining area and a tv area for some entertainment.
The backside included a huge playground including bathroom near the institute. The frontside of institute had a beautiful garden which were taken care off everday.
The Directress looked at her wrist watch and mentally planned on approaching the next door to wake everyone up.
She sipped the last gulp of the tea and stood to leave the room.
As she glanced in the dark room which was dimly lit with the natural source of light,she moved a little further to make a morning call to everyone.
"Wake up children! The day has bought a lot of brightness around you !!"
Her voice was loud enough for everyone to be awake for except one. Everyone woke up with a slow pace not wanting to leave their warm beds alone. Some children brightened up seeing the weather outside. Some went out cheering up and some rushed to get freshed to start their day early.
Directress looked around satisfied until she saw one child still sleeping on the bed. She made her way to his bed ,which was near the window, and slowly shook him by his shoulders .
"Jimin? Jimin dear? Wake up Jimin everyone's awake."
She knew him well since the day he was bought here in the institution. She still clearly remembers his expressions of excitement and a lot of emotions in his face but he kept himself contained and patience.
'Mature '... she thought that time.
'You will get used to the surroundings Jimin.'
He moved his body slowly to get up from the bed. He wasn't used to someone waking him up but will soon be. He rubbed his eyes before looking at the person who stood beside him.
"I wanted to sl- ohh Good morning ma'am." He said a he faced her with his full attention.
"Good morning Jimin. And uh... you don't have to call me ma'am again and again .. call me Aunty." She ruffled his hair before leaving to go back to her work.
Before she left she glanced back at little jimin who was already making his way towards another door.
'He reminds me of my own son...'

Jimin was still not familiar with his surroundings. Maybe because he never saw so many people around him who took care of each other.
It was pass 12 o'clock of the noon, Jimin sat on one of the swings watching his surroundings with a great fond.
He slowly helped himself swinging with a low pace. The breeze hit his chubby cheeks as his hair flew across his hair.
He somehow felt weird but felt like being in home a real home.
His mind got diverted by someone playing instrument in the institution. It was faintly audible but he knew who was playing it , so he quickly left the playground and climbed the stairs and made his way to the office.
Directress was raised with great passion in her veins and one was to be a violinist. Since her childhood she was fond of playing violin when she saw her father playing it. And since than she started learning how to play and was one of the best violinist in her states. Though at some point she stopped playing it officially but kept playing to ease her heart and soul.
Little Jimin watched her from the doorway. She stood near the window with her eyes closed .
*You can pick any violin cover you like*
He didn't know which melody it was but it was very touching and beautiful to hear.
He was soo lost that he accidentally tripped on his feet and made a loud bang while holding himself by the door for support.
Directress knew who was near the door watching her.
"Jimin why don't you come in?" She kept the violin on the desk and finally looked at him who was still struggling to hold himself.
Embarrassed , he was about to run away when the Directress came beside him in a swift moment and helped him stand up.
"Hey you ok there?" She held him by his shoulders as she watched him adverd his eyes from her.
"Ye-yes Ma- Aunt ." little jimin was flushed until she holded his hands and made him sit on one of the chair.
She crouched in front of him as she held his both hands to comfort him from being scared.
"Jimin why don't you come by everyday to watch me and in return I'll teach you how to play violin?"
"Really?" This time he watched her with a little pout on his face.
'Cute .'
"Ya pinky promise." She held her pinky for him. He hesitated for a while but accepted her offer.
"Thank youu aunt!" Jimin squilled in excitement as he embraced her into a little hug which he could barely do with his small hands.
"How about we start from today?" She still hugged him and could hear him nodding his head in a yes.
She wished she could keep him in her embrace for a little longer.
