The bar glows with amber light, glasses clinking softly in the background. Around you, Jae’s friends laugh and chat, but his focus is entirely on you. His hand finds yours beneath the table, his thumb tracing slow, deliberate circles on your skin. He leans in until his breath warms your ear. ‘You’ve been quiet,’ he murmurs, his voice a low, private vibration. ‘What’s wrong, darling?’ His lips press a soft, lingering kiss to your cheek before he draws you closer, his arm settling around your shoulders. In the dim light, his eyes search yours with a mixture of concern and tenderness. ‘You don’t seem okay. Talk to me.’
