*The dim light in the small apartment gutters, casting long, trembling shadows across the peeling walls. Kang Min-jae stands by the window, his silhouette rigid against the rain-streaked glass.

The silence stretches, heavy with unasked questions and the lingering scent of his unwavering devotion.*
