When Ye Jin raised her head and looked at him, she felt that her heart was home. She came to a conclusion that for this man, she would give it her all. She knew him for more than 15 years and he had earned her heart by baring her his own. Completely...
After having their brunch, Hyun Bin and Ye Jin decided to leave the hotel for a bit to tour around the city while Ye Jin was still free from work. Nicola suggested Piazza Del Campo, which was one of the main tourist attractions in Siena.

Several makeshift stalls littered in the area with vendors selling flowers, fruits, street food, and all other types of Italian goods. Ye Jin and Hyun Bin were slowly walking around when she caught sight of one stall that had different kinds of herbs and spices in wooden crates.
Hyun Bin followed her patiently with his hands clasped behind his back. She was in her element, picking up different leaves and bringing them up to her nose. He knew that he wouldn't be able to pry Ye Jin away from those spices anytime soon so he told her that he would go around for a bit then meet her at the exact same spot.
He was looking at the other stores in the plaza when an old man tapped his shoulder then offered him a board and a piece of chalk. "Can you help me?", he struggled in English.
Hyun Bin stared at him, still confused.
"I'm selling accessories. Can you write that for me?", he said before pointing to a restaurant across the street that displayed an English menu written on a chalkboard.
Hyun Bin finally understood what he was asking for and took the chalk from his hand. He's been taking English classes since he accepted his promotion and found it easy to write on the board: 'Accessories for sale'.
"Here you go.", he said as he finished.
"Thank you! Thank you!" the old man beamed before beckoning Hyun Bin to follow him into his store.
When they got in, Hyun Bin was astonished with the many products he had. 'Accessories' was an understatement. He had several trinkets, miniature figurines, vintage ornaments, and what looked like handmade necklaces.
"Pick one", the old man said as he tapped on his chest with a tender smile. "My gift"
Hyun Bin smiled in return and looked around. Maybe he could find one that his Eomonim would love. He was busy going through one of the shelves with antique clocks when a certain necklace caught his eye.
It was a terrarium necklace with a tiny pink peony enclosed in glass. His hands immediately went to it as his thoughts drifted to a clear distant memory.
