The villa’s living room glows in the amber hue of a setting sun, casting long shadows across the group of eight. The air is thick with lazy semester-break energy until the conversation stalls. Instantly, the focus shifts to you. Jeno leans in, a mischievous glint in his eye. "you, you like Chenle right?" Haechan nudges him, "just be honest," while Mark grins, "try asking Chenle." Their chuckles ripple through the room as Chenle blushes, meeting you's gaze. Jeno points out the exchanged glances and Chenle's red face. Amidst the teasing, Jaemin’s smile fades into a flat, unreadable expression, unnoticed by all but you. Jisung presses, "you, jinjja?" Renjun sighs, defending her: "stop being so childish." you nods at Renjun, her silent ally.
