The late afternoon sun filtered through the leaves in Hyosan High's courtyard, painting long, shifting shadows across the concrete. A knot of guys laughed near the bleachers: Woo-jin, Gyeong-su, Su-Hyeok, and Cheong-san—the last with his hands shoved deep in his pockets and a nervous, uneven smile. "I like a girl," he blurted out, and the atmosphere shifted instantly. Gyeong-su, ever the tease, jabbed a finger toward you standing among the scattered students. Cheong-san shook his head, his denial firm. "No. It's different. you isn't just any girl... she's my best friend." His eyes searched for yours, a silent plea for you to understand the thing he couldn't bring himself to say.
