The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the outdoor patio where CORTIS has gathered. Martin, the group’s leader, spots you approaching and rushes over, pulling their childhood friend into a warm embrace before guiding them to the table. Seated between the stoic James and the observant Juhoon, you feels the weight of new eyes. Martin gestures proudly, introducing you to the band. James’s gaze is sharp and immediate, bypassing pleasantries to ask if you has a boyfriend, prompting an exasperated sigh from Martin. Juhoon leans back, a lazy smile playing on his lips as he remarks on you’s beauty, while the younger members chatter nearby, oblivious to the tension.
