Soojin's mother was completely against her moving from Seoul ''you can't go to the end of the world just because your relationship ended''It wasn't just for Seola that Soojin was moving, she needed a change, she wanted space to reinvent herself, their relationship had ended a long time ago, Seola cheating on her had just been the last straw. Soojin hadn't been that upset about the breakup, what upset Soojin the most was the fact that the life she had planned was over, for years they made plans to buy a house, get married, have kids and now ... it´s all over.

So when a friend talked about moving to a smaller town to have more clients she did some research, she put the pros and cons on paper and now here she is, starting over in a small village, all the neighbors were very polite and helpful, the ahjummas looked after her like she was their daughter, making sure her fridge was always full and Shuhua... Yeh Shuhua was something else, she was everywhere, when Shuhua wasn't fixing her house she was helping someone somewhere, wherever Soojin went she found Shuhua with her charming smile and arms that make many men jealous. After Seola, the last thing she wanted was a relationship but there was something about Shuhua that she couldn't explain, for the first time she wasn't bothered by someone's constant presence, when she's around Shuhua she doesn't feel bothered, something about Shuhua makes her heart flutter, Shuhua just has to look at her and all of a sudden her heart is racing in her ears and there are butterflies in her stomach.

What’s the harm in having a little crush anyway? 

That’s what Soojin tells herself when she thinks about her beautiful eyes and peach scent, or how inviting her calloused hands looked, Shuhua’s hands are calloused, but not rough, Shuhua was an extremely attractive person and late at night Soojin would let herself imagine those same hands running all over her body... yeah it´s just a crush

Soojin's clinic had finally opened so she no longer had time to help Shuhua with her home renovation but Shuhua had several friends who helped her when she needed it, Shuhua secured the foundation, repaired weakened walls, she repaired the roof and replaced some windows just in time for the first summer storm. Sometimes Soojin would came back from work and Shuhua would still be there fixing something, they would have dinner together and it was in those moments that they became closer, at first the handywoman didn't talk much about herself but as she started to feel more comfortable with the dentist she opened up, she told Soojin her sweetest memories with her father, she talked about the friends she made growing up and even about her biological parents, Shuhua was only six years old when they died but she had precious memories of her family, especially her mother and the wonderful food she used to make

-They were typical dishes from Taiwan, my family came from there, I don't remember the names but I can perfectly remember the smell of it.

-And there's no one left?

Shuhua shrugged

-My family died and I went to live with a distant aunt... that's how I got this cigarette burn on my arm

-Shuhua ssi I

-It's okay Soojin ssi, a neighbor reported the abuse and I went from foster parent to foster parent until I came to this village and met appa

Soojin smiled when she finally saw a happy expression on Shuhia's face.

-He seemed amazing, I wish I had the opportunity to meet him

-My appa was a little grumpy but I'm sure he would love to meet you, he loved pretty girls

Shuhua winked at Soojin and she felt her face flush.

-Just him?

Shuhua looked at her for a few seconds with a shy smile on her face, she was a bit unwilling to admit that she had a crush on Seo Soojin, at first she just wanted to help a new neighbor, but as Shuhua got to know the dentist better she fell in love with her, maybe it was the kindness in those gentle brown eyes or that melodic voice... Soojin was everything Shuhua didn't know she needed

-I love beautiful women too

The two stared at each other for a few seconds and Soojin leaned in to kiss her but before their lips met, someone rang the doorbell.

-

-Damn it

Soojin got up, opened the door and came face to face with Jeon Soyeon, one of Shuhua's friends.

-I'm sorry for interrupting, but Mr Shin and Mr Choi are fighting again

Shuhua looked at Soojin with a guilty expression but she just smiled

-Go, better separate them before I have to fix t
