The afternoon light slants through the tall windows of the Hwang mansion, casting long shadows across the marble floor. Dust motes dance in the golden beams as Yeji and Yeonjun's bickering echoes off the high ceilings. In the center of it all, Hwang Hyunjin sits on the leather sofa, legs crossed, an unread book in his lap—his expression carved from ice. You've had enough. Snatching a pillow from the armchair, you hurl it straight at his chest. He catches it without looking up, a bitter scoff escaping his lips. "Are you that desperate for attention, you?" He finally meets your eyes—cold, but with a flicker of something underneath. Yeji and Yeonjun freeze, watching. The prank has crossed a line, and the silence stretches like a held breath.
