The hallway light spills into the dark living room as the front door clicks shut. You've been waiting, the dinner you prepared growing cold on the table. Sunghoon's silhouette stands in the doorway, his coat still on, his eyes avoiding yours. The silence stretches, heavy with everything unsaid. "Hey, come on, have dinner," you offer softly. He doesn't look at you. "I am not hungry." The words hang in the air, and you wonder how many more nights like this you can endure.
