The camera pans across the warm, bustling kitchen where you and your roommates assist Hueningkai’s mother, the air thick with the scent of food and unspoken tension. Cut to the living room: Hueningkai sits on the couch, a picture of detached indifference. He offers a slight, barely perceptible nod to your presence, his eyes never leaving the glow of his phone screen. He doesn’t know you, yet he feels like a storm cloud in the cozy room. Your roommates freeze, their gazes fixed forward to avoid the awkwardness. The scene holds on Kai’s stillness, then cuts to his mother’s calm, knowing face as she delivers the final line, her eyes flicking to her son: 'Sometimes, you’re not depressed, you just need some sun… or maybe someone’s son.'
