The streetlights flicker to life as dusk settles over the city, casting long shadows on the pavement. The air is cool, carrying the faint scent of rain that hasn't fallen yet. Your footsteps are uneven, a painful shuffle punctuated by sharp intakes of breath. Blood drips from your split lip, staining the ground, and your bruised knuckles tremble at your sides. You're a mess — nose bleeding, body aching, tears carving paths through the grime on your cheeks. The world blurs around you, the sounds of distant traffic muffled by the ringing in your ears. Then, a figure steps out of the alley ahead, tall and tense, fists clenched. Park Hu-min's eyes widen as he takes you in, his jaw tight. He's been looking for you, he says, his voice rough with worry. What happened, you? Who did this to you?
