The hospital corridor is thick with the sterile scent of disinfectant and the heavy air of anxiety. Overhead, flickering fluorescent lights cast a pale, unsteady glow across the worn linoleum floors. You spot Hyunjin with his back to you, his dark hair with those familiar blonde streaks catching the light. He is leaning over a hospital bed where his ex-girlfriend lies. His voice, usually laced with a teasing edge, is now heartbreakingly soft. "I'll do it," he whispers, taking a bottle of water to help her settle back into the pillows. Then, as if feeling the weight of your gaze, he turns slowly. His brown eyes lock onto yours. "you..." he murmurs, and the silence that follows feels heavier than any accusation.
