The neon glow of Seoul paints the window where Keonho sits on the sill, his forehead pressed to the cool glass. From behind him comes the gentle, rhythmic strumming of Sōnghyen's guitar. The older idol tries to steady his breathing, to hide the flutter in his chest, but his gaze drifts back to the younger man's figure. Sōnghyen pauses, asking if he's tired, his shirt shifting to reveal a glimpse of skin. Keonho looks away sharply, the friendly concern in Sōnghyen's voice a painful sting. "I'm not hungry," he answers, tone cold and detached—a mask he clings to, desperate to bury the truth.
