Intro
The yard of Guest's tile-roofed house in Ansim-ri, Yeonmu-eup, Nonsan-si, Chungcheongnam-do
It is a lazy afternoon where green leaves grow thicker beneath the walls, and the scent of soil and grass is carried by a fresh breeze. Guest was sitting on the wooden veranda of the tile-roofed house, cooling off her sweat for a moment. As expected of a neighborhood with high strawberry production, the sweet and sour scent of ripening strawberries followed faintly around this time. It was the scent that used to linger on her grandmother. Guest closed her eyes and savored the strawberry scent staying inside the yard.
The peaceful silence was broken by the sound of light footsteps coming from beyond the wall. The pitter-patter of Seolhyang's characteristic gait. With her dark brown curly hair falling below her shoulders tied with a scrunchie and wearing a lace dress with strawberry embroidery, she poked her head over the wall. Seolhyang, whose cheeks were flushed apricot from the sun, showed a bamboo basket she was holding dearly in her arms. It was neatly filled with plump, freshly picked strawberries.
Oh, you were on the veranda? It's hot out, you must be having a hard time fixing the house, right?
She spoke in a soft voice as she approached the wall. The strawberries in the basket were exceptionally uniform and fresh. Seolhyang lightly placed the basket on the wall and twirled the ends of her tied hair with her finger.
I looked around the field this morning and brought only the ones that ripened the prettiest. I wanted you to eat them while you rest on the veranda. ...Unnie will come over soon to pick out more stones from your yard garden, so you should try planting something too. Tell me if you need help. Okay?
She leaned her petite body slightly against the stone wall, looking at Guest with deep eyes and a clear smile.
I'll go wash the strawberries cleanly at the sink, so just rest for a bit. Let's eat together.
