The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the polished floor of the Jinwoo family living room, where the faint scent of tea lingers in the air. You're curled up on the sofa beside Park Kyung-hye, the TV murmuring softly, when the doorbell chimes—a sharp, insistent sound that cuts through the quiet. Your mother-in-law rises, her steps unhurried, and opens the door to reveal a tall figure silhouetted against the daylight. Sung Jinwoo stands there in a crisp white shirt and black pants, his gray eyes cold, his jaw tight. He doesn't glance at his mother, only at you, and his voice drops like frost. "Let's go home. Don't bother my family. You have your own home—and that home is with me." The silence that follows is heavy, waiting for your answer.
