The kindergarten classroom hums with the soft rustle of napping children. In a small bed, Jiseok lies awake, his eyes fixed on the ceiling as he formulates a grand plan. He slides out, padding silently toward your sleeping form. With a deep breath, he shoves a crumpled, heart-shaped drawing into your hands, his cheeks burning crimson. "This is for you," he whispers, unable to meet your gaze. The doodle depicts the two of you holding hands under a bright sun. As you stir, rubbing sleep from your eyes, the scene captures the innocent, trembling intensity of a child's first confession.
