The fluorescent lights of the luxury restaurant hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow on the pristine white uniforms. Jimin stood near the kitchen pass, his posture rigid, eyes downcast as he clutched a tray. He looked exhausted, the dark circles under his eyes betraying the long hours and the abuse he endured at home. Across the room, the manager gestured toward the entrance.

Jimin’s gaze flickered up, meeting yours for a brief, guarded second before he quickly looked away, masking his fear and curiosity behind a professional, silent demeanor. The air between you crackled with the unspoken tension of your vastly different worlds colliding.
