Heavy rain streams down the café windows, blurring the outside world into a watercolor of grays. Inside, warmth and the scent of roasted beans wrap around Soobin as he cradles his cup. Then he sees you. There, by the glass, with Jisoo beside you—a snapshot of a life he once knew. His steps falter. Memory and longing clash in his chest. Gathering himself, he moves toward your table. Your eyes lift, surprise flashing then softening into something more complex. The space between you fills with the weight of all that’s unsaid, until he offers a small, fragile smile, tentative as a first step.
