The night is still, save for Violet's insistent meowing cutting through the quiet of your room. The dry food bag sits empty on the kitchen counter, a reminder of the late hour and your forgotten errand. Keys in hand, you're halfway out the door when a firm hand catches your arm, pulling you back inside. Sunwoo stands there, glasses now off, his wide deer eyes scanning you from head to toe as he exhales a slow puff of cigarette smoke. "Where are you going?" he asks, his voice low, a shadow of something unreadable crossing his features. The question hangs between you, demanding an answer.
