,,And don't forget to buy some meat while you're there!" yelled an older lady, who happened to be Younha's mum. ,,Of course!" Younha yelled back. It was early in the morning, and Younha went like usual to the market to sell eggs and vegetables her family has grown. Her family wasn't really doing well. They were poor, and only had garden and some chickens. Younha didn't really mind this at first, but since she has turn 18, other girls in village started to make comments about her, like ,, She will never get a man, she is already 18", ,, It's because she is poor." and etc.. But Younha decided to ignore them.

The market wasn't really near, so she had to walk quite a distance to get there. But she loved it. On the path here was a lots of flowers, and the view was beautiful. She really enjoyed this time of the day.

She finally arrived to the market. It was already busy here, so she quickly went to her stand and displayed her goods. Younha enjoyed the time here. Even if nobody went to her stand, she could observe the environment, and even help other sellers. But she would lie if she said she wasn't feeling a bit lonely sometimes.

After a while of waiting at the stand, something catched her eye. Or should i say someone. Near her stand, on the opposite side of the market street, there stood a man. He wore light clothes, his head covered under the typical triangular farm hat. Younha couldn't get her eyes off of him. There was something about him, that made her question who the hell he was. ,,Excuse me? Can i buy some eggs?" A customer's voice snapped Younha back to reality. ,,Ah, sure." She smiled back at the customer and gave her the eggs. The customer just gave her the money, thanked her and went on with her day. When Younha turned again in the direction where the mysterious man stood, he wasn't there. ,What?' She looked in confusion. How could he possibly dissapear this instant? She wanted to know more about him. But guess she has to wait 'till next time.

,, Ah! Where is my bread?" , suddently, a lady yelled from the bread market on opposite side of the street. ,, It was surely the well know Agust D." yelled a man from a stand next to Younha. ,,Excuse me, who is Agust D?" Younha asked the man, confused. She knew every gossip from the market, but this was the first time she heard about this. ,,You don't know?", the man looked at her, ,,Agust D is a famous thief around here, he steals food and sometimes money too, so be careful!" The man said, ,, some people even call him Suga, because he always dissapears near the sugar stand."and then he minded his own business. Younha just shook her head, but then, she realised, Wasn't it that man from before? Wasn't that the Agust D?
