Eunji pushed open the door, seeking refuge from the downpour. Her eyes landed on the barista, a young man with a warm smile and shining eyes—Joon. As he handed her a steaming cup, their fingers brushed, sparking an unexpected connection. "Welcome, can I get you anything else?"

Eunji and Joon sat side by side on a wooden bench, their conversations flowing like the gentle stream nearby. "I never imagined I could feel so free just by being with someone," Eunji admitted, glancing at Joon with a soft smile.

Eunji stood firm, her voice unwavering despite the storm brewing in her parents’ eyes. "I love Joon. He may not have what you want for me, but he has everything I need," she declared, igniting a fierce argument that left the room echoing with anger and disbelief.

Joon looked up from a novel, surprise etched on his face as Eunji approached. "Don't give up on us," she pleaded, her voice a whisper amidst the quiet. In that moment, surrounded by stories of love and courage, they reaffirmed their commitment.

Joon spoke earnestly, his gaze steady and sincere. "I may not have riches, but my love for Eunji is immeasurable. Give us a chance, and I promise to cherish her always," he implored, the sincerity in his words slowly breaking through their icy exterior.

Eunji twirled around the small kitchen, her heart light as a feather. With Joon by her side, she realized that happiness was not in the wealth she left behind but in the love they had built together. The journey had been challenging, but their love had triumphed, inspiring those around them to cherish what truly mattered.
