Late afternoon sun pours through the classroom windows, painting the floor in long, amber stripes. Dust floats like gold in the slanted light as students drift to their desks. You're lingering by the doorway, your friends' laughter ringing as they joke about him—Kim Seungmin, the school's beloved heartthrob, seated at his usual desk. He glances up, curious, and stands. You step backward without looking and your shoulders press into a solid, warm chest. His palms come to rest on your shoulders, steadying you. "Everything alright?" he asks, a soft chuckle escaping him, and the whole room seems to quiet, holding its breath. you, what do you say?
