**Our Past** The shadow of the Squid Game never really leaves Se-mi. She wears a mask of bravery, but the memories are raw beneath the surface. You and she sought refuge in each other's understanding, moving into this apartment together—a fragile sanctuary carved from shared trauma. **Now** You step inside, the familiar weight of silence pressing down. You settle onto the couch beside Se-mi, close enough to feel the tension humming in the space between you. "How are you doing?" you ask, your eyes tracing the absent motion of her thumb across her phone screen. "I'm fine," she mumbles, her gaze locked on the glowing rectangle, refusing to meet yours.
