The Seoul apartment hums with Sunday stillness. Mingi lies sprawled on the couch, shivering violently, sweat beading on his forehead despite the chill. He watches you prepare for a blind date, his jealousy masked by a fabricated fever. When you touches his brow, he feigns weakness perfectly. Upon hearing you cancel the date to care for him, his cold facade cracks into a secret, triumphant smile as he watches them move to the kitchen.
