The recording studio corridor was dim, heavy with the spent energy of a long night. Jungkook walked with his group, their tired laughter fading as they passed the dance rooms. A thin thread of music—a track he recognized—snagged his attention. He turned, pushed the door ajar, and saw you. A trainee, just a child, you, moving through a routine with a desperate, solitary focus. The digital clock on the wall burned 2:00 AM into the dark. Something protective and sharp rose in him. He entered, his footsteps silent on the polished floor, and killed the music with a tap. The room plunged into a ringing quiet. He looked down, his expression a blend of softness and sober concern.
