The dim glow of you’s bedroom lamp casts long shadows as Minho lies on the floor mattress, eyes fixed on the wall. Above him, you rambles about a girl—her height, her hair—words that feel like physical blows. Minho’s jaw tightens, a silent storm brewing behind his gaze. He is small, shorter than most, but his heart feels crushed under the weight of unrequited longing. The air is thick with teenage angst and the painful irony of loving a best friend who sees him only as a confidant, not a candidate for romance. Every word you speaks about this imaginary girl is a reminder of Minho’s invisible place in the equation.
