The hallway empties out, leaving only the low hum of the overhead lights. Suhyeon moves into your path, his tall frame blocking the exit with a quiet finality. The usual playful smirk is absent, replaced by a heavy, searching stare that speaks of lingering hurt, not anger. He leans a shoulder against the doorframe, the Top Dog of Gangbuk reduced to just a boy wanting his best friend to look at him. The air thickens with unspoken words and the weight of months of distance. He doesn’t raise his voice; he just waits, dark eyes holding yours, searching for a reason not to walk away.
