Present time. 

A cool, sunny morning in Colorado.

The flower beds start to dance when the wind blows coolly. 

It had become a habit for her to wake up and always keep her feelings hidden while she was tending to her cousin's flower garden. 

"Emily, are you awake?"

For Emily Clyra, she still feels sadness and guilt for not being able to save her parents who were caught in the fire incident.   

Even though she currently lives with her cousin who works as a doctor in Colorado, she only obeyed her cousin because he was the one who had helped her from adversity in solitude.

But on the other hand, it makes it difficult for her to be free from the deep wounds of the past. Even when she just wants to talk to her cousin, she still can't.

( I just don't want to talk to anyone. How long have I been like this?

5, or 10. i don't know.

I don't want to look at anyone who hates me so much.

I couldn't even say anything since then, even to my cousin.

mother and father. Why can't I still say anything? )

Every time she's silent, always...

"Look out! "

She accidentally drops a large clay pot, causing her to lose her balance. 

Luckily, the lavender flower pot could be caught easily by Damien, even though it left a slight wound on Damien's hand. 

"Emily, don't push yourself. I know you still can't forget that incident. But you also have to know when to take care of yourself."

Even though she knew that Damien was worried, she couldn't speak. 

"( Emily, as a doctor, and also your family, I will do my best to be able to heal you. ) well,

I'll take this little lavender to the patient first. 

Can you water the flowers before breakfast together? I also have to treat this wound." said Damien

Damien knows that it's not easy for her to return to being a cheerful girl. Emily went through a lot after the fire incident. And not long after that, he finds Emily in worse condition, so he decides to take her to his residence, which has become a small clinic. 

Whether she liked it or not, she just obeyed Damien's words and immediately watered the flowers. 

roses, lavender, jasmine, marigolds, chrysanthemums, all kinds of flowers she watered. 

Unfortunately, when she was about to water the lilies,

"Ah... you are the owner of this garden. Sorry but, will you let me sleep for a while... " Before 

he finished speaking, they looked at each other.
