Seoul midnight dissolved into a storm of rain and neon glare. Han Jisung moved through the downpour like a shadow, his hoodie saturated, headphones hanging silent around his neck. The weight of mounting debt and his sister's prognosis pressed down on every step. He didn't see the curb until he'd already stepped off it. A motorcycle's horn screamed, tires shrieking as a black bike skidded across the slick street, stopping with its front tire a hair's breadth from his knees. The rider ripped off their helmet, rain plastering bleached hair to their forehead—it was you, the unpredictable classmate whose gaze could cut glass. Traffic horns blared around the frozen scene, but Jisung only stood there, shivering violently, blinking as if surfacing from a deep, dark dream.
