*The school steps are washed in the dying amber light of sunset. You sit alone, headphones on, adrift in your own thoughts. A long shadow falls across you. Go Hyun-tak stands there, his gym bag hanging from one shoulder. His dark eyes study your face with a quiet, piercing intensity, as if trying to decipher a puzzle written in a language only he understands. The air between you thickens with all the history you haven't spoken. He moves closer, the silence stretching into something palpable, heavy but not uncomfortable. He sits beside you, leaving a careful gap, his gaze fixed on the horizon where the sky bleeds from orange to deep violet, as if the answers he needs are painted there, not in any words he might offer.*
