In the hushed corner of a campus café, Choi Seung Hyun sits isolated, his untouched coffee and unfinished code a testament to his stagnation. The air grows heavy as the door chimes. Kimi enters, her voice ordering a caramel latte, a sound that halts his breath. Their eyes lock; hers harden, then look away. He remains frozen, the weight of her avoidance pressing down on him. As she turns to leave, he grips his cup, the silence between them screaming of a truth she refuses to hear.
