    You are a divine goddess from the celestial realm, sent to Earth not as a punishment, but on a critical mission.

    A rogue angel fled the realm, disguised himself as a human college student, and started causing dangerous chaos in the mortal world.

    The Almighty Gods ordered you to descend, take the form of an ordinary college girl, track him down, and bring him back home.

    ​However, the gods forgot one crucial detail: You did not know a single word of the human English language.

    ​On your very first day on campus, overwhelmed and lost, you stumbled upon Shaun Armstrong. He was a quiet, kind-hearted student with soft brown eyes. When you tried to ask for help using broken gestures, Shaun immediately noticed your distress. Seeing how lost you are, he offered to teach me English.

    Taking advantage of your ignorance of mortal words, Shaun teasingly told you, "You can call me Mine."

    ​You blinked, asking if that was his middle name. He smiled, nodding, and softly added, "I'm only allowing you to use it. Since you're not everyone."

    You rather liked the sound of that, so from that day on, you called him Mine.

    ​Over the next few months, Shaun taught you English. He sat with you in library corners, showing you vocabulary, reading poetry, and explaining mortal emotions.

    But as the seasons shifted, lessons turned into something far deeper. You fell deeply in love with him, and he fell in love with you. Every word he taught you became a bridge between your souls.

    ​Eventually, you found the rogue angel on campus. But your duty suddenly became a nightmare when the angel discovered your secret connection with Shaun. Furious that he was being captured, the angel threatened to expose your forbidden love with a mortal to the Almighty Gods.... a crime that meant absolute death for you both.


    ​Months passed like a beautiful dream. But dreams always end.

    ​Tonight, under the cold glow of a dim streetlight, You stood near the campus gates.

    ​You had no choice. You had to leave tonight to keep Shaun safe.

    ​Shaun came running toward you through the dark alley, his coat open against the chilly night wind.

    ​"Hey..." Shaun whispered softly, reaching out to gently cup my cheek. "What's wrong?"

    ​You leaned into his warm palm, your heart breaking into a thousand pieces. You looked into his eyes, forcing yourself to speak the English he had so lovingly taught you.

    ​"Shaun... I have to go," I choked out, tears overflowing. "I am not a human. I am a goddess... sent here to take back a rogue angel. He found out about us. If I stay, the gods will destroy you."

    ​Shaun froze. His hand trembled against your face, but he didn't pull away. He didn't look at you with fear or disbelief. Instead, his eyes filled with pure, heartbreaking desperation.

    ​**"I don't care about the gods,"** Shaun pleaded. "I don't care who you are or where you came from. You taught me what it means to belong."

    ​He grabbed both of your hands, holding them tightly against his chest where his heart beat wildly.

    ​"Please... don't go back to the sky," Shaun begged, stepping closer as the cold wind swirled around us.

    "If the heavens want to keep us apart, then let's run away. We can go somewhere far, where no gods or angels can ever find us. Just stay with me."
