Spicy Rice Cakes

"So why do you need to go to Busan?" You say once you two reach the highway. Tiffany hesitates, trying to think of a lie to tell you. After failing to think of one, she answers. 
"I need to get some spicy rice cakes." She says, and you almost turn the car around. 
"You know they sell those in Seoul, right?" You say, a bit annoyed.
"But they aren't her favorite." She says, then covers upon realizing what she had said. 
"Who's favorite?" You ask, and she sighs.
"...Taeyeon's." 
You swerve a bit at the unexpected answer, looking over at her. 
"Taeyeon?" You say, and she nods. "Why do you need to get her rice cakes?" 
"Because...um...I sorta..." She stutters, and you chuckle, looking back at the road. 
"Ooooh! Fany has a crush...on a girl!" You say, and she frowns. 
"Shut up! I do not! I just made a deal with her that I'd get her rice cakes if she got me dinner the other night."
"Really? Don't lie to me, Fany."
She hesitates again. 
"...No."
"Hah! I knew it!"
"I just want to do something nice so she'll actually notice me for once." 
"What do you mean? You guys are best friends, I think she's recognized your existence."
"Not like that! LIke...as a lover."
"A lover?! Oh my god you're such a dork."
"Look who's talking!"
"Wait a minute. What about Nichkyun?"
"We have a deal, like Baekhyun and Tae." 
Little to the general public's knowledge, Taeyeon and Baekhyun aren't actually dating. The two came up with the idea to tell the world they were to hide the fact that they both were gay. 
"He's gay?"
"No. He's just one of my closest friends, and agreed to pretend for me."
"That's so cool of him!"
"Yeah. He was the first person I ever came out to. You're the second, _____."
"I'm honored. You know you can always talk to me about anything, Fany."
"Thanks. I know that seems like it's not a big deal, but seriously, thank you so much. It means a lot."
"Of course."

When you reach the exit for Busan, the two of you sigh in relief. Tiffany acts as your GPS, guiding you to the small shop the girls went to a few years back. To your suprise, the restaurant is open. As you walk in, a bell above the door rings, and an older woman in an apron walks out of the kitchen. A large grin spreads across her face when she sees who's in her shop. 
"Tiffany!" She says, going around the counter to give her a hug.
"Hello, Halmeoni!" She says back. The two hug, and you smile. When they separate, the woman looks at you kindly. 
"And who's this?" She asks, and you bow.
"Hello! My name is _____. I'm Tiffany's friend." You say, and Tiffany butts in. 
"She's Sunny's fiancé." She says, and the woman acts suprised, then chuckles. 
"I figured she'd find herself someone quick. And what a pretty girl she picked! Most people around here just call me granny." (A/N: Halmeoni means grandma)
You go to shake her hand, but she gives you a hug instead. You hug her back happily. 
"So what brings you all the way here?" She asks. "Here for another box of those rice cakes for that person you're always talking about?"
"Uh...yeah." Tiffany says as you look over at her, eyebrows raised. She blushes and avoids your eyes as the woman walks into the kitchen to cook.
"So you've been here before?" You say, and she sits down, sighing.
"I've gotten them for her a lot of times, but I've never actually given them to her. I always end up giving them to someone else or eating them, because I always get too scared to give them to her. That's why I brought you this time. I know you won't let me give them to anyone but her." She says, and you smile. 
"You can count on me!" 
Just then, the lady comes out again with two styrofoam boxes in a plastic bag. 
"I made you two servings so you can have some on the ride back. Just pay me for the one, dear." She says, and Tiffany tri
