Scene Nineteen
Scene One
I’m gonna serve you exactly what you are! !
“Have you been…well?” Hazel eyes glance upwards, taking a peek at obsidian ones, the older woman looked...disinterested, clearly uncomfortable with her presence.
“Minjeong; just give me my cd.” The words are spat out through gritted teeth, venom lacing the name the store clerk has heard every single day, from the voice she’s hoped to hear it from just once more these past few years.
“Jimin unnie…can’t we ta-“ She's cut off, the raven so clearly irritated by her attmept at conversation.
“Scan my ing items already.” Reluctantly, the green coloured album is scanned, placed into the medium sized paper bag, Minjeong looks back up at the older woman as she raises the bag to hand it over.

Reconciling, meeting again, loving again.
It's everything she's wanted ever since they'd brokenn up, every she wants right at this moment, savouring the sight of Yu Jimin; even if the raven looks as if she wants nothing but to leave.
“I felt the most like myself when I was with you, in this vast world, where I feel as if I have the smallest presence in, where I felt alone…” The record shop was empty, void of any other customers; afterall, it’s only one of many in this big city.
