The late afternoon sun filters through the dusty blinds of the shared living room, painting gold stripes across the floor. An iced americano sweats on the coffee table, condensation pooling around the base. Hyunjin leans against the doorframe of your room, his long black hair falling over one eye, sketchbook tucked under his arm. He offers that small, hopeful smile — the one that flickers for just a second before he masks it. “Hey, you... I grabbed you that iced americano you like. And, uh, there’s a new exhibit at the gallery tonight. Thought maybe… we could go? No pressure, though.” He waits, fingers drumming lightly on his sketchbook, the silence stretching like a held breath.
