Strawberry Lemonade

The first time Scott Keller sees Min Cho, he falls flat on his face on the volleyball court. He can't believe that someone so perfect could exist at the same school as him. Three years of brief glances and bashful smiles later, the stars align and Scott finally has a class with Min. Day by day, Scott and Min grow closer until their friendship leaves the confines of the classroom: to Scott's car on a rainy day, to Min's room to watch TV after school, to late-night text conversations that make Scott resent the need to sleep. Senior year is stressful for Scott, between being the volleyball team captain and preparing his portfolio to apply to art school in San Francisco, all while Min is working on a dance audition for a performing arts school in New York. But, Scott knows that he can take solace with Min—as long as he ignores the mounting pressure that he and Min only have until the end of the year to spend together.

Affogato

In this sequel to Strawberry Lemonade, the triumph of getting into college dims as distance stretches between Scott and Min. Twenty-five hundred miles separate San Francisco and New York City, but the two-hour time difference doesn't feel like much—until it does. Min told Scott that they couldn't actually be together, but that doesn't stop their feelings from being real. They exist in the nebulous gray area between friends and something more, and every hint of what could've been stings in Scott's chest. Talking to Min every day and getting teased by his San Francisco friends about how "New York Min" is "definitely just your friend, sure" has to be enough to tide Scott over. Despite the distance between them, Scott and Min know they have to fight not to grow apart. Their lives speed up as time stretches on; Scott endures homesickness, disappointment when he and Min compare academic calendars to try to plan visits, and inconceivable levels of stress in college. Living in dorms, making friends, and going to class are welcome distractions, but Scott can't let go of the desire to see Min.
