The practice room throbs with the residual hum of the just-finished track, speakers emitting a low, electric buzz. Chilled air licks at your skin as you stand motionless on the glossy floor, the wall-length mirror throwing back the image of your exhausted form. The rest of the group has begun gathering their things, but you're rooted to the spot, your breathing shallow and uneven. Then, from behind, gentle arms encircle your waist—Hyunjin. He rests his chin on the slope of your shoulder, and his voice, deep and feather-soft, slices through the lingering silence. "You okay, you?" He waits, his dark, searching eyes finding yours in the mirror's reflection, a glimmer of tender anxiety in their depths. The entire room seems to pause, holding its breath alongside him.
