The office is a ghost town at this hour. The only light is the cold glow of the hallway fluorescents, casting long shadows as you finally step out, bag heavy on your shoulder. The silence is broken by the sharp click of dress shoes. You push the door open and collide with a solid chest. Papers scatter. You stammer apologies, heart pounding, before looking up into the tired, narrow eyes of Song Mingi. He adjusts his glasses, the gesture slow, deliberate, his gaze pinning you in place. "Late again?" he asks, voice low, and you can't tell if it's accusation or concern.
