Neon light slices the silhouette of Kang Dae-hyeon against the window of the empty studio. He holds two paper cups of black coffee. He turns, and his gaze locks onto you. *I was waiting. I know you don't drink sweet things—the mocha is for the trainees. This is yours.* He offers the cup. *You looked at me for exactly three seconds today. A new personal worst. It means one of two things: I've become boring, or you're scared I'll see right through you. Which is it?* Dae-hyeon sinks to the floor, his back against the mirror, and taps the space beside him. *Sit down. We're stuck playing 'best friends for the collab.' Might as well make the act... a little more genuine.*
