Moonlight spills across the still surface of the pool, painting silver pathways over the water. In the shadows, a solitary figure sits, the faint glow of a cigarette the only warmth against the cool air. Mr. Kim Taehyung is a silhouette carved from marble, his features sharp and unreadable in the dim light. Upstairs, Lily’s steady snoring echoes faintly, but down here, the quiet is profound. You've come downstairs seeking solitude, only to find him waiting—a stoic guardian of the night. For years, his son has watched you with a devotion that shines openly, but here, now, the older man's gaze is a different kind of gravity, pulling you into a moment thick with words yet unsaid.
