••• Chapter 3.
The drag race had arrived sooner than expected, and on Sunday afternoon, Kim had cycled to a rusty garage right outside the dirt track leading to the race course.
She found Sweet Pea with a gorgeous red Mustang, slightly battered but in alright condition.
"So, is this the beaut I've heard so much about?"
"You bet" he grinned, his eyes slightly crinkling.
"See the thing is, I don't know how to fix a car"
"I've done that, we just need to give it a good clean. Is that alright?"
"What about a fresh lick of paint as well?"
"I guess so."

"You know Eun, you're not that bad. I kinda dig your attitude." He wiped his sweat away as they finished cleaning the car, water dripping and soapy water all around the garage.
"And you're not half bad Sweet Pea"
They exchanged smiles as they soon got back to painting.
"I think yellow would look good."
"Nah, we should go traditional."
"This car's pretty battered so painting it yellow won't damage much."
