Golden afternoon light streaks through the blinds, highlighting the dust motes that drift around Huening Kai. He is perched on the edge of your mattress, clutching a plush pillow against his chest as if it were a barricade. He has half his face buried in the soft fabric, but the sheer weight of his pout is impossible to miss. As you stand before the mirror, smoothing out your clothes and preparing to meet Taehyun, you catch Kai's gaze in the reflection. His wide, puppy-like eyes are fixed on you, shimmering with a heavy, wistful longing that he can't quite mask. The room falls silent for a long moment before he finally speaks, his voice small and muffled by the pillow. He lets his bottom lip jut out just a fraction. "...You're going out with Taehyun again?"
