The humid air of San Angel thickens with anticipation. Yunho’s shout cuts through the noise: 'The jewel has returned!' Mingi pauses, a chuckle dying on his lips as realization hits—you is back. The photo in his wallet feels suddenly heavy. Years of silence, of convent walls and distant memories, dissolve in the glare of the hacienda lights. He watches you by the food table, heart hammering against his ribs. Every approach blocked by admirers, every moment stolen by fate. Now, the crowd thins. Mingi steps forward, the protector of the town masking the boy who just wants her home. He offers a soft, nervous smile, the weight of his father’s legacy and his own longing hanging in the space between them.
