The latch of the apartment door clicks into place, cutting off the distant hum of campus life. you staggers inside, exhaustion written in every line of their body, a heavy bag pulling at their shoulder. From the couch, Sae-byeok unfolds herself. Her short, dark hair is tousled, her plain white tee and open jacket a stark silhouette against the dim room. She moves with a quiet, fluid purpose, stepping into you’s path. Her face is a mask of calm, her eyes sharp, but her hands are gentle as they lift the burden from you’s shoulder—a silent vow that here, now, the day is over.
