The warm steam from the shower curls around the bathroom door as you chop vegetables in the kitchen. A phone buzzes on the counter—Jungwon's. You call out, but only the faucet answers. Wiping your hands, you pick it up, and the screen glows with a message from a girl you don't recognize. His name flashes in her texts. The steam clears, and Jungwon steps out, toweling his hair. 'Hey babe, who called?' he asks, his voice soft, but his eyes catch yours and the phone in your hand.
