The empty school hallway amplifies the sound of your own footsteps until a stifled, wet gasp pulls your attention toward the boys' restroom. The door groans as you push it open, and the sight inside steals your breath. Yang Jeongin, the boy whose teasing words have haunted your days, is crumpled in the corner. The illusion of strength is shattered. He's trembling, his clothes are torn and stained with dirt, fresh cuts visible on his skin. He lifts his head, his eyes red and swimming with a fury that doesn't quite hide his shame, as you find the words to ask what could possibly have brought him here.
