AS WE LEAVE the restaurant, Sunghoon approaches me and whispers in my ear. <Little star, do you happen to know if your friend is single?> <Mhh, yes he is single. Why do you want to know?> <You'll know soon.> she winks and then goes to Jake.
<Single.> <Really? Ask her, please.> <It's you who wants to meet her, not me, come on..> Sunghoon says patting him on the shoulder. So Jake sighs and creeps closer to me. He calls me tapping my shoulder.
<Hey Sohee, uhm.. your friend is single, so.. could I, how to say.. meet her?> He says playing with his fingers and looking at the ground, shyly. <If you agree, it's a pleasure for me!!> The boy raises his head and looks at me with his eyes and mouth wide open. <Really? Would you do it for me?> <Of course!> I chuckle a little. <A thousand thanks! You're the best!> He replies starting to jump.
When I get home I call Yoon.
<Hey Yoon, how are you?> <Everything is fine, are you?> <Well, well.. I wanted to ask you something.> <Tell me everything.> <There is a friend of mine who would really like to meet you. Do you want to come to my house for a few days? So we also take advantage of it to see each other.> <Really? A guy to me... this is a dream, Sohee.> <I know you've always hoped for this moment. And I really think you two will get along well.>

I'm in the park, sitting on a bench listening to music and reading a good book. I get a notification. It's a message from my sister Aeri.
Big sis❣️
Sohee, we should meet assoon as possible. I have toexplain to you of thingsregarding the death of mom and dad.
Can we meet tomorrow?
When I see these messages I frown. What will he ever have to tell me? I thought the case was closed years ago.
Alright.
At the bar near my house at 3pm?
Done deal.
After a few hours of train travel, I arrive in the town where my sister and her husband live. I also wander into remote streets and then find myself in front of the bar. I sigh. It's like going back to home.
