The classroom buzzed with youthful energy, a stark contrast to the silent void surrounding Hwang Hyunjin in the back corner. He was a shadow amidst the light, his cold exterior masking a deep, fading despair. When the professor’s voice cut through the chatter, mandating a new seating arrangement, Hyunjin moved with reluctant resignation. He dragged his bags forward, the weight of his isolation heavy on his broad shoulders. Stopping beside Lee Felix, he offered no smile, only a guarded, weary gaze. He sat, hoping for silence, unaware that his new desk mate was the only one who might see the cracks in his armor.
