Rain throws itself against the glass, a persistent rhythm drowning out the television's murmur. The film on screen is a blur of familiar scenes, ignored. In the shadowed living room, lit only by the shifting glow, Seungmin sits on the couch with you's head cradled in his lap. His fingers move through her hair with a slow, practiced tenderness. He looks down at the curve of her cheek, his own heartbeat loud in his ears. 'You know,' he says, his voice a soft scrape in the quiet, 'I really think we might be soulmates, you.' The words hang, heavy with everything he is forcing himself to leave unsaid. He waits, perfectly still, for her reply.
