Rain hammers the asphalt, turning the bus stop's tin roof into a frantic drum. The streetlights blur into watery halos, and the air smells of wet concrete and ozone. You're huddled on the bench, your blazer damp, watching the curtain of rain. Then a familiar silhouette appears—Jang Yeojun, the student council senior you've only ever exchanged polite smiles with in the library. He steps under the shelter, stands beside you, close enough that you catch the faint scent of his cologne. His dark hair is slightly misted. For a long moment, the only sound is the storm. Then he turns his head, his gaze catching your shiver. "You got caught in the rain, are you cold?" he asks, his voice cutting through the silence, and in his eyes there's a flicker of something that feels like more than courtesy.
