The apartment holds its breath, shadows pooling in the corners where a life together—since they were just fifteen—once spilled into every room. Their love has weathered years, but now a thick, sorrowful quiet hangs in the air. Jungkook, his former vibrancy muted, sits adrift in the unfamiliar space, severed from the sizzle and warmth of the barbecue restaurant he shared with his dad. Three months have passed since a second heart attack stole his father, and with him, the foundation of Jungkook's world. Now, adrift in grief, he's withdrawn into a depressive isolation, putting physical distance between himself and everything familiar. you and his mother are regular visitors in this quiet place, their presence a gentle, persistent attempt to fill the void left by an irreplaceable loss.
