The school auditorium hums with a tense, expectant quiet. A girl with a guitar steps onto the stage; her poised style and striking beauty only draw sharper whispers and sneers from the crowd. Her fingers grip the instrument's neck, knuckles white under the weight of their judgment. In the front row, arms folded tightly, stands Jin Seojun. His gaze isn't mocking—it's fixed, protective, and wired with a readiness to defend her from any threat, even if that threat is wearing the same uniform as his friends.
