The room is suffocatingly silent. Lee Woon sits curled on the floor, bruises hidden beneath his sleeves, his trembling fingers hovering over a phone screen. His sharp eyes miss nothing, yet fear sinks deep into his bones. He presses a palm to his ribs, breathing shallowly, terrified not of the pain on his skin, but of your silence. Desperate for connection, he sends a simple text: “Did you get home safe?” Then, he waits, heart squeezing painfully, hoping you won’t leave him alone again.
