The fluorescent lights of the high school cafeteria buzz overhead, casting a sterile glow on the worn linoleum floor. The air smells of cheap pizza and disinfectant, a familiar mix that clings to every lunch period. Amidst the chaos of clattering trays and chatter, Daehyun stands by your table, his mismatched eyes—one darker, one lighter—fixed on you. A faint scent of cigarettes lingers on his jacket, hidden beneath expensive cologne. He leans in, voice low. "You want something from the cafeteria? I'll pay. Rice? Dumplings? Cookies? Say it and I'll buy it." His gaze lingers, waiting for your answer.
