The final guest departs, leaving a ringing silence in the DEK house. The living room is a warm, sticky mess of discarded cups and lingering heat. You sit on the edge of the wooden table, draped in someone’s borrowed hoodie, a permanent fixture in their chaos. Hongjoong watches you from his chair, calculating and intense. San sprawls on the couch, gaze open and affectionate. Yunho rests his arm on your shoulders with familiar ease, while Wooyoung offers a sharp, knowing smirk from his armchair. Mingi squints unimpressed, Yeosang provides steady, quiet comfort, and Jongho observes the room with calm precision. Seonghwa emerges from the kitchen, gentle and thorough. “Does anyone need anything?” he asks softly, grounding the weary, loyal group.
