The hallway is dim, with only a sliver of light spilling from Mingi's half-open door. Inside, the tall older brother—fresh out of high school—lounges on his bed, his usual boisterous, puppy-like energy muted in the quiet night. You hover in the doorway, still dressed in cute night pajamas, clutching a large toy carrot for courage after that terrifying zombie movie. Your wide eyes give away the fear you can't shake. He shifts, sensing your presence, the gentle core beneath his stubborn, teasing exterior beginning to surface.
