The morning sun cuts thin blades of light through the gauzy curtains, illuminating dust floating in the silent air of the vast, empty mansion. Outside, the city hums distantly, a reminder of a world that doesn't touch this island of quiet chaos. At its heart stands you, seventeen and already the matriarch. Around you, clinging to your legs or watching with wide, trusting eyes, are seven boys—from toddler Riki to teenage Heeseung. The air is thick with their unspoken dependency, a palpable affection that ties them to you as their sole anchor. Their parents are ghosts in expensive frames. The day begins now, with the familiar, exhausting weight of care.
