When he let out a sigh, Himari sends him another message. This time, she attached a short video clip to her message. 'This is to make your day right!' Raising a brow, he clicks the play button. 'Hi, Jin! The weather is good today, right? So why don't you invite me for a date today?' Then Himari blows a kiss in front of the camera before she waves her hand. Jin can hear Lester's laugh in the background. That jerk is surely enjoying his time with Himari. He is a jerk and Himari is a lunatic woman. "Tch. Two peas in a pod." Jin said before throwing his phone on the sofa. He gets up and heads straight to the bathroom to take a shower. After that, he left his room and go straight to the parking lot to fetch his car. Despite the fact that he has free time today, Jin plans to visit his company to see if they are experiencing any problems. Aside from being a leader of a huge mafia organization, Jin is also a businessman. As a front, Jin Takishima is also the owner of a construction company. Actually, Jin's company is the one that built some of Lester's resorts and spas. The traffic is heavy today because of an accident, and the police are investigating what happened. Jin patiently drives his car since he is not in a rush today. While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Jin notices a boutique selling various dresses and accessories. He looks at it for a minute before turning the steering wheel to go to that boutique. Jin had no idea what was wrong with him today. The last time he went to a store that sold women's clothing was when his mother celebrated her birthday with him before leaving to visit her maternal family. Jin remembered that he bought a silk scarf for his mother because she enjoys wearing it on her bags. When he entered the boutique, a woman in her forties politely greeted him. The woman looks so gentle especially when she smiles. Jin returned her greeting with a nod. "Welcome to our shop, sir. May I know what you are looking for in our shop today?" the woman asked. Jin took the question seriously. Despite the fact that he is only passing through, he does not want to be rude to the woman. Since he is already here, Jin might as well buy a gift for Himari. He can try to be considerate of her because the Dragons and Tigers have formed a friendly alliance. "I am looking for a gift that will appeal to a crazy woman." Jin seriously said. After hearing that response, the woman blinked her eyes. Perhaps Jin had said something inappropriate. However, before Jin can try to correct her, he notices that the woman is laughing before she asks him again. "Is she your girlfriend, sir? If possible, may I also know her age so I can help you find the perfect gift for her?" Jin responds to her question despite being taken aback that the woman did not give him a strange look. "...Yes. She is my girlfriend. She is also in her twenties." "I see. Did she like to wear jewelry?" "Not really. She only wears it if there is an occasion." "Alright. Please wait for a minute." The woman said then she goes inside a room that Jin assumed as a storage room. When the woman returns, she is holding a small box in her hand. She opens it and Jin sees a silver hairpin with small rose quartz on it. "How about this one, sir?" Jin stares at the hairpin for a moment. He is imagining if that hairpin will suit that woman. Surprisingly, Jin is not thinking about her crazy antics while staring at the hairpin. He is recalling the first time he saw Himari, who was looking out the window with gentle eyes inside the restaurant, her fingers drumming on the table and humming a soft tune. "Rose quartz symbolizes compassion, calmness, and femininity. It is also a good stone to match with a gentle lady." The woman said. "...My girlfriend is a far cry from being gentle and compassionate." The woman laughs again as she hears that statement. "Maybe. But the way you look at the hairpin a while ago will never lie, sir." "What do you mean?" Jin asked. "Actually, you were not looking at the hairpin. You were actually thinking of her, right?" Jin said nothing. But the woman smiles, as if she has already received her answer. "I will buy this one." Jin said to change the topic. "Alright, sir. Do you also want me to wrap it?" The woman asked. "Please do. You can also decide what to do with it. I do not have any knowledge when it comes to things like gift wrapping." The woman smiles politely and said she understands him. While wrapping the hairpin, the woman is telling him stories about the other men who visited their store before to buy gifts for their wives or girlfriends. Just like him, they were also clueless about what gift is perfect for their cherished ones. Jin said nothing and simply listened to the woman's stories. After wrapping the gift, Jin swipes his card to pay for the item he bought. Before leaving the boutique, the woman told him to cherish his girlfriend and hoped she would appreciate his gift. Jin can only nod briefly before getting back into his car. He put his gift inside the glove compartment. Jin is still thinking if he will give that hairpin to Himari or not. Knowing her, she will either act as a sticky gum to him after giving that hairpin or she will not stop bothering him claiming that he cares for her like a loving boyfriend. Before starting his car, Jin receives a text message from Lester telling him to return to the penthouse because he will be bringing Himari there for their surprise party for her. Jin first checks the traffic, and when he notices that the police are still not finished with their investigation, he turns his car around and decides to visit his company the next time. When he arrives at the building, he notices Lester and Himari walking through the entrance. When the two notice him, Lester smirks, and Himari smiles sweetly at him before running towards him and kissing him on the cheeks.
