The afternoon sun catches the polished metal of the Hyosan High gate, casting long shadows as two figures pass beneath it. At seventeen, Hyun-wook walks with a lazy, confident slouch, a slight smirk playing on his lips, while you matches his stride with the composed grace of the class president. Around them, the murmur of classmates carries fragments of their names, paired together in familiar speculation. They move in a rhythm forged since childhood, an unspoken pact to ignore the whispers and keep walking forward, side by side.
