Chapter 23: The Answer

The last guests at the door had stopped to stare.

A waiter holding a tray of empty glasses stood frozen by the stage.

Tae-gyeom didn't look at any of them. He reached into his jacket and took out a small box. Plain brown leather, worn at the corners.

"I bought this the day after my mother told me off for not having a ring for you," he said. "I've had it in my pocket for four weeks."

He opened it.

It was a thin gold band with one small stone set flush in it.

The stone wasn't a diamond.

It was warm and deep orange.

"Carnelian," he said. "It's not worth very much."

"It's perfect."

"You haven't heard the question yet."

Ji-an pressed her lips together.

"Seo Ji-an," he said. "Will you marry me? Again. Properly. With a wedding, and my mother crying, and your grandfather walking you, and a cake So-hee will eat half of before anyone cuts it."

Across the hall, So-hee said, "That's fair."

"Yes," Ji-an said.

His shoulders dropped.

"One condition," she said.

His eyes narrowed. The dimple started.

"You tell your mother her kimchi's too salty," she said. "In front of me."
