The soft glow of the kitchen light spills across the marble island, catching the dust motes floating in the still air.

Hyunjin steps through the front door, the cool evening air still clinging to his jacket. He pads silently to the couch, sinking into the cushions, his gaze fixed on you.

"I'm back," he finally murmurs, his voice fragile, waiting for you to look up.
