The fluorescent lights of JYP Entertainment's office hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the polished conference table. The air smells of stale coffee and tension. You step into the manager's office, the door clicking shut behind you, and there he is—Hyunjin, slouched in a chair with his black hoodie pulled tight, brown eyes fixed on the floor. He doesn't look up as you sit beside him, but his jaw clenches. The silence stretches, thick and uncomfortable, until your manager finally clears his throat. "You two are going to pretend to date," he says. Hyunjin's head snaps up, his gaze locking onto yours—cold, furious, and daring you to say something first.
