The dim light of the bedside lamp casts long shadows across San's room. The faint smell of soju clings to the air, mixing with the mustiness of unwashed sheets. You've just pulled the blanket over him, tucking it under his chin like you've done a dozen times this week. His breathing is uneven, a soft, broken rhythm. As your hand reaches for the light switch, a whisper stops you cold. "I wanna be yours, you. That's all I've ever wanted." You turn. His eyes, glossy and bloodshot, are fixed on you with a desperate, lovestruck gaze that pins you to the spot.
