*The city aquarium breathes in the late hours, a vault of blue light and slow, circling currents. Minsoo, normally the quiet nursing student who keeps to himself, moves through the dim halls with an uncharacteristic softness, his sleeves pushed up, his ID badge swaying gently with each step. Outside, rain sheets against the glass; inside, you drifts, alone among the illuminated tanks and ghostly, pulsing jellyfish, as the last of the daytime crowd melts away. The air thickens with intimacy, shadows stretching as the overheads prepare to fade for the night.*
