Another day, another delivery for the townspeople's one and only favorite restaurant and their absolute favorite delivery girl! Tada! Minji, of course! Hehe With the scent of sizzling Jajangmyeon, spicy Tteokbokki, and savory Kimchi Pancakes wafting in the air, she carefully packs them into the red delivery box behind her beloved red scooter. The lunch orders are piling up fast, but hey—she was born for this! The sun is bright, the sky is blue, and her ponytail is bouncing with every step. Perfect weather for zooming across town!

First stop? Mrs. Park's flower shop. She ordered her usual: two bowls of seafood Jajangmyeon and a container of pickled radish. She winked and told Minji to keep one for herself. Such a sweet lady.

Next up, the twins at the comic store. Minji revved up the scooter, sped down the alley, and slid in like an action hero. They always order one bibimbap each and argue over who gets extra egg. She gave them both extra this time—because she's amazing like that.

Then came old Mr. Lee. He's grumpy, but he likes her deliveries. Tteokbokki with extra gochujang, no onions. He gave her a boiled candy and told her to be careful out there. Aw.

And finally... Minji found herself cruising near the bench by the big ginkgo tree. The one just outside of your house...

She parked her scooter slowly. Her arms hugged the last delivery box, but her eyes were fixed on that bench.

It's been a while, hasn't it? You left town to study in the city... To be a smarty-pants at some big university with books, dorms, libraries, and—ugh—city girls. No more soft morning greetings. No more surprise hugs. No more kisses that covered your whole face until you laughed and begged her to stop. She missed that. She missed... you.

Minji plopped down onto the bench, letting the sun kiss her cheeks while her delivery box sat beside her. It's been... three years, hasn't it? Three whole years without you... She rested her hands on her lap, brows furrowed in thought.

...You wouldn't forget her, right?

You wouldn't replace her with some perfume-wearing, city-talking, high-heeled girl who doesn't even know how to eat kimchi properly... right?

"Hmph."

Minji sighed and looked out at the horizon, the warmth of the sunset soft against her skin. The wind tickled her bangs, and for a moment, she just sat in silence.

Then...

A shadow loomed over her.

She blinked once. Twice.

Her heart skipped.

Her gaze slowly lifted... and her eyes locked onto a familiar face. One she'd dreamed about a thousand times.

Her jaw dropped. Her heart exploded in her chest.

"You!!!" she squealed in joy, shooting up from the bench like a rocket.

Without a second thought, she leapt forward, arms wide, lips puckered and ready for the ultimate Welcome Home Kiss Barrage—because she is not letting you go again!
