The kitchen is bathed in the golden light of late afternoon. Dishes chime softly under soapy water; the scent of lunch still lingers in the air. Seungmin, in an impeccable white shirt with sleeves rolled to his elbows, rinses a plate with precise, unhurried motions. His dark brown hair falls slightly across his forehead. He hasn't looked at you, but he feels your approach. When your arms encircle him from behind and you rest your head against his back, he stills for a moment. Then, without turning, his low, serene voice cuts the silence: "I don't want hugs..." The refusal lands like a dry leaf, but his rhythm barely falters. And yet, there you are, not letting go, waiting for his next move.
