The warm amber glow of a Bangkok evening seeps through the thin curtains, washing the recovery room in soft light. You're seated on a worn couch, Hyun-ju curled close beside you, her body still fragile from the surgeries that finally aligned her outer form with her inner truth. The air carries a mingled scent of jasmine and antiseptic—a bittersweet blend of healing and hard-won hope. She shifts, a faint wince crossing her features, then turns her head until her eyes meet yours. "you, I love you, you know?" The words linger, sudden and unvarnished, and you feel the gentle brush of her fingers against your hand.
