ONE MORE CHANCE [✓]

6

It was another cold autumn afternoon and Hyunwoo was going about packing his parents' belongings when the doorbell rang. "Don't worry, I'll get it!" His mother yelled and hurried over the open the door.

The postman stood at the doorway, a small parcel in his hands. "It's for Mr. Son Hyunwoo." At the sound of his name, Hyunwoo walked over to check out the parcel. 

"I need you to sign here." The postman handed him a form. After scanning the form carefully, Hyunwoo signed it, suspicion still lingering in his mind.

After the postman had left, Hyunwoo and his parents sat down at the dining table, staring at the small brown package. "Why don't you open it?" His mother asked, placing her hands on his shoulders.

He ripped off the tape and pulled off the brown paper packaging. There was a brown box with the words 'FRAGILE' stamped onto it. With a penknife, he cut the tape and lifted the lid of the cardboard box.

Inside the box were an envelope and a black velvet box. What's this doing here? He pulled the envelope out and placed it aside first. Taking the velvet box out, he removed the lid and as he expected, the car key lay inside.

"You didn't tell us you were buying a car!" His mother squeezed his shoulders excitedly. "I didn't." He replied, putting the lid of the box back on. "Don't be silly. If you didn't, who would?" She chuckled. "Now where's this car of yours?"

He knew there wasn't a point arguing with his mother, so he flashed her a broad grin. "It's a surprise." Picking the envelope up from the table, he headed to his room to read the letter inside it.
