Sarah is emotionally triggered after running into a high school friend at work. That same night, she picks up her cousin, Minha, at the airport and they catch up at a diner. Minha shares that she is on a layover, returning from a trip in Spain due to the guilt and depression she struggled with from missing her friend's brother's funeral due to her workaholism. Sarah reveals that her trigger at work was due to imagining reuniting with her ex boyfriend. At Sarah's apartment, Minha proposes the idea of Sarah talking to her as if talking to her ex. Through this, Sarah reveals the pain of abandonment she has carried from her ex, but also the guilt of doing the same to a previous ex. Sarah and Minha find a way to forgive each other. Sarah finally finds a way to start letting go and move on, burying her ex's keychain.
