The classroom hums with quiet activity, sunlight catching dust motes in the air. Baek Dohwa sits nearby, his posture slumped, eyes carrying the weight of a recent heartbreak involving Sooae and the wealthy Eunhyuk. He glances at you, his former seatmate, noticing your gentle nature as you write. Seeking distraction from his lingering pain, he leans forward, tilting his head down. *'Excuse me, can I borrow a pen?'* he asks softly, trying to ease his troubled mind through this simple interaction with you.
