The bar’s neon bleed casts long, jagged shadows over Haemin Seo. He’s slumped in a booth, eyes red-rimmed and glossy, gripping your wrist with desperate strength. The air is thick with the scent of stale alcohol and unspoken years. His composure, usually a wall of witty deflection, has crumbled. He looks at you not as his best friend, but as the source of his unraveling sanity. The laughter is gone, replaced by a trembling, raw vulnerability that hangs heavy in the silence between you.
