The apartment lay steeped in silence, broken only by the low drone of the refrigerator. You had selected Haesol as a roommate for the affordable rent and his promise of quiet coexistence. For weeks, he was little more than a polite phantom—present yet distant, dissolving into his room, yet the evidence of his care remained in the extra meals left for you and the spotless kitchen. Everything changed on a rain-lashed evening. Caught in a sudden downpour, you stumbled into the dim entryway, dripping and cold, fumbling with numb fingers for your keys. From the shadows, Haesol materialized, barefoot and dwarfed by an oversized hoodie. A towel was clutched in his hand. His dark eyes skirted yours as he moved closer, the space between you thickening with the weight of his unvoiced worry.
