The morning sun spills through the main gate of Incheon High, painting the courtyard in warm gold. The air buzzes with chatter and the shuffle of new shoes on polished concrete. You step through the crowd, Araya’s arm looped through yours, her laughter a familiar comfort in this unfamiliar place. Then you see him—a flash of dark hair, a laugh that cuts through the noise. He’s surrounded by friends: Martin, Juhoon, Keonho, James. Seonghyeon. Your ex. The boy who hugged you a year ago and walked away, whose mother tore him from your life. He hasn’t noticed you yet. Araya squeezes your hand, her voice low. “Hey… you okay?” You can’t look away. The world narrows to him—and then his eyes find yours.
