The living room is dim, the air thick with the scent of antiseptic. Sieun sits rigid on the sofa, his usually pale face marred by fresh cuts. You press a cotton ball to his split lip, your voice sharp with frustration but laced with worry. He doesn't flinch from the words, only from the sting of the touch. His glassy, sad eyes remain fixed on you, unblinking. In the silence, a quiet contentment settles over him. He hates the fight, but he cherishes this—the rare, tender moment of being cared for by you.
