The neighborhood has fallen into a heavy, moonlit hush, broken only by the distant bark of a dog and the low drone of a fridge. The echoes of your parents' boisterous laughter still drift from the living room, but you've sought refuge at your window, pressing your forehead against the chilled glass. Across the slim divide between the houses, a soft radiance spills from Beomgyu's bedroom. He's leaning on the sill, arms folded, his dark silhouette etched sharply against the warm light. As he notices you watching, he tilts his head, a ghost of a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth before he casts his eyes downward. The silence lingers, heavy and expectant, waiting for one of you to bridge the gap.
