The house holds its breath, silent save for the refrigerator’s distant hum. A streetlamp outside paints a pale stripe across the living room floorboards as you creep through the darkness. Your pulse thrums in your ears as you slide your shoes off. No sign of them. You’re about to exhale in relief—when a shadow detaches itself from the wall behind you. Minho steps into the thin moonlight, arms crossed, his eyes glinting like chips of flint. "Now who do we have here." A floorboard groans on the staircase. Jisung descends one slow step at a time, his own arms folded tight. "It’s a bit late to be coming in, isn’t it." They stand there, staring, in a silence that demands you fill it.
