Summary
Eomeoni used to tell her she was special. Not only in the way that every child is special to their mothers, but in the way that other people would point their fingers at her and say it between themselves. Her husband calls it intuition, intelligence, anxiety, and even good luck, but Jinsung knows what it is. And so, she knows – however much she wants to deny it – that this visit is the last time she will ever see her brother.

Summary
She doesn’t know when they step back, only when her back bumps against the wall, and his hands grip her hips, pulling himself flush against her. She can feel him, thick and hot against her thigh even through his clothes. She whimpers on his lips, impatient with those stupid, beautiful hands of his.
“Let me take you to the room. Lay you on the bed.”
“No, here,” she pants, because she knows if he gives her any more time to think about it, she might come to her senses.

Summary
Sequel to ECHOES.
It had seemed so promising, too, the way the mudang described all of Rumi’s symptoms – that restless feeling, like there was something she needed to do or somewhere she needed to go, her waking up crying from whatever dreams she kept having that she could not remember, and the lethargy and the feeling of lacking something. Yearning for something that she just couldn’t put her finger on.
“You need to find the man,” the mudang said. “Find him, and soon everything will return to you. You’re suffering because you couldn’t let him go.”
Rumi asked if maybe she meant her dad, but the mudang had rattled her bells, and fanned with her fan, and shaken her head.
“No, no. This is a romantic partner. A man you were separated from. A handsome one.”
Which just couldn’t be because self-aware, nearly-ascetic, career-focused Rumi had never dated anyone – ever.Series
