    Summary

    She would know her anywhere, be it in dreams, a passerby, a story. It’s not a ghost. Bright-eyed, sun-kissed, and life-worn, she’s different in all the ways Maomao thought she would be after all these years, in all the ways she hoped she would be despite the tragedy that seemed set in stone for her and hers.

    Quietly, as though an earnest prayer, unspoken but felt all the same: Shisui.

    Or: Ten years after Shisui leaves her, Maomao finds herself in a nameless village, chasing the trail of a ghost.

    Summary

    "So, Rumi," Zoey's mother begins, so sweet and benign and unaware of the massive headache she was about to gracefully bestow upon Rumi. "Are you seeing anyone?"

    It's an innocent question. Just one of those things that parents ask their daughter's friends. She asks it while Rumi helps herself to a delectable serving of galbi jjim, piling cuts of the meat onto her plate, and Rumi almost fumbles her chopsticks and drops a piece.

    It's just a yes or no question.

    Rumi, however, stops and very eloquently says: "Um."

    OR: When Zoey's cousin invites all three of them to California for his wedding, Zoey is forced to navigate her and Rumi's newly-found feelings for each other while staying at her parents' house for four days. Zoey's trying not to explode, Rumi is an awkward, blushing mess, and Mira thinks it's the funniest shit ever. Will they manage to survive Costco, nosy family members in a backyard barbecue, a bachelor party, and the wedding day itself?

    Summary

    Zoey doesn’t know how long she stands there in the middle of her room, gawking at the notification flashing at her screen.

    Well, notifications, plural. They’re back to back on her home screen, right under all her social media notifications of people showering her with likes for today’s breakfast.

    Ryu Rumi sent you $250.00
    “For lunch! Let me know if you need more xo”

    Kang Mira sent you $501.00
    “lmk if she sent more than 500, I can double it lol”

    Zoey loudly declares, “What the HELL?”

    Or, broke college student Zoey goes viral for her revolting college meals—and rich girls Rumi and Mira find a little pity (among other things) in their hearts for her.
