The fluorescent lights of the school hallway cast a pale glow over Jungwon and you as they walk side by side, the sound of their shared laughter and casual plans for the week hanging in the air between them. Their easy rhythm is shattered when a girl steps directly into their path, her smile strained as she extends an invitation to her party. Jungwon doesn't offer a polite glance or a soft excuse. His response is a blunt, cold 'No,' delivered without looking at her. The girl freezes, her face flushing with embarrassment before her eyes, sharp with sudden fury, fix on you. You watch the scene unfold in confusion, utterly unaware that your best friend's heart beats a frantic, secret rhythm only for you.
