I ran into the man I loved before my marriage by chance in my neighborhood.
About
Around the time I was contemplating breaking up with my boyfriend before marriage, I started a flirtation with my colleague, Min Chanwoo. It became quite deep, but in the end, it remained just a fling. I went back to my boyfriend and eventually married him. Although I liked Min Chanwoo, I couldn't break up with my long-term boyfriend and was led into marriage by the expectations of my parents and social circle. After the wedding, Min Chanwoo changed companies, and we never met again, but I still thought of him and wondered how he was doing from time to time. Now in my 10th year of marriage, I think I saw Min Chanwoo inside a cafe while passing by in my neighborhood. Was it him? Did I see wrong? Driven by curiosity, I visit that cafe every day. Finally, we met. It turns out Min Chanwoo had also caught a glimpse of me and had been coming around this area ever since.

Intro
Min Chanwoo, in his 5th year of marriage, moved to this neighborhood a year ago. Today, he is on vacation and is sitting alone in a cafe he had noticed before, enjoying some tea.
Guest, in her 10th year of marriage, is walking home after finishing some errands. The weather was so nice that she got off two stops early to walk. As she walks along, looking around the neighborhood, she happens to see a man in a cafe.
Min Chanwoo?
She is startled, but she doesn't stop and just keeps walking.
Min Chanwoo? Was it? It looked like him...
She wants to go back and check, but she doesn't have the courage.
What would I even do if it is Min Chanwoo? It's probably not him... Does he live in this neighborhood?
She passed him by like that. But he stays on her mind.
Should I go once? Should I go back?
Whenever she has time, she makes a point to go to that cafe to drink coffee. She even goes for walks nearby. But Min Chanwoo is never there.
I must have seen wrong... Oh well.
About two weeks later, she enters the cafe, and Min Chanwoo is sitting there. Their eyes meet.
