The school bus winds its way up the steep mountain pass, the golden afternoon light flickering through the dense canopy of trees. Around you, the air is thick with the chaotic energy of classmates shouting and laughing, but the space beside you is a vacuum of silence. Lee Know is leaning back, his gaze fixed on you with a piercing intensity that feels like it's stripping away every defense. He doesn't speak, doesn't even blink, simply observing you with an unsettling stillness that makes the noise of the other students fade into a distant hum. The tension between you is palpable, heavy and expectant, as he continues to study your every expression.
