Chapter 5 - "The Silent Heartbeat: Love in the Shadows"

Simi was sitting in a quiet place when a man approached her and said, "The Mahajan has summoned you to his chamber. He might be angry with you for bringing a stranger to this secret place."

The girl's name was Simi, and she was the one Jimmy had been searching for. Simi went to the Mahajan's chamber. The Mahajan was Simi's father and the king of Mahajanpat. Simi was the princess of Mahajanpat.

The Mahajan looked at Simi and angrily said, "How could you bring an unknown person to our secret place? Don't you know we are about to attack Korea? That king is not a good person, and our duty is to protect innocent people. If those people find out about this place, they might attack us."

Simi responded humbly, "Father, please forgive me. I saw that man injured and couldn't help myself, so I brought him here. If you are angry with me for doing this, I am ready to accept any punishment."

The Mahajan looked at his daughter and felt sad. He realized that Simi was only doing what he had taught her—helping people, even if they were enemies.

The Mahajan said, "Alright, Simi. I will forgive you this time, but remember, if that man turns out to be an enemy, you need to keep an eye on him. There should be no negligence."

Simi nodded, "Okay, Father. I will do as you say." Then she left.

After some time, Jimmy regained consciousness and found himself in an unfamiliar place. He couldn't figure out where he was. Then he remembered that when the beast attacked him, a girl had saved his life.

A soldier came and informed Simi, "The boy has regained consciousness."

Simi quickly went to him. Jimmy looked at her and was stunned, as if he had known her for years. Simi noticed him staring and sternly asked, "Who are you, and what were you doing in this forest? Don't you know this forest is very dangerous? Why were you wandering around?"

Jimmy just listened to her, and at that moment, he fell in love with Simi at first sight. As Simi kept asking questions, Jimmy thought, maybe this is the girl I've been searching for. But she's also incredibly beautiful, and she's already stolen my heart.

Simi, irritated, asked, "Are you crazy? I'm asking you something, and you're staring at me like a fool."

Jimmy replied, "You're very beautiful."

Simi, surprised, asked, "What?"

Jimmy quickly changed the subject, "I mean, I don't understand how I ended up here."

Simi said, "You were found injured in the forest, so I brought you here. Now tell me, who are you?"

Jimmy thought to himself, if I tell her the truth, she might kill me right here. So he lied, "I'm a woodcutter, and I got lost in this forest while searching for the right kind of wood."

Simi was a little suspicious, but seeing his torn clothes, she assumed he was just a poor woodcutter.

Simi said, "Alright, when you're better, leave this place and never return."

Jimmy thought to himself, now that I've found you, I won't leave until I win your heart. My heart desires you, so I'm not going to leave anytime soon.

Gradually, Jimmy began to win the trust of the people there with his simplicity, including Simi's trust. Simi, too, found herself drawn to Jimmy; she couldn't understand why she was being pulled toward him. Being with him brought her peace, and slowly, she started falling in love with him as well.

Jimmy now realized that Simi liked him too, and he decided that he would soon confess his feelings to her.
