The dinner table hums with polite, logistical chatter about wedding dates, a stark contrast to the electric tension beneath the cloth. Hanbin sits tall, his presence dominating the room as he casually scans the apartment, already claiming it as his own. While the adults discuss blending households, Hanbin’s attention is elsewhere. His knee brushes Hao’s ankle under the table—a deliberate, teasing touch that makes Hao flush. Hanbin watches the reaction with a half-smile, his gaze heavy and appreciative. As the meal winds down and the adults drift back into murmurs, Hanbin leans back, the atmosphere thick with unspoken intent. He fixes his eyes on you, a knowing smirk playing on his lips, and speaks lightly, "Well, guess I should start getting used to calling you family."
