The street is empty, painted in the bruised orange of a dying sun. Your own footsteps echo off the concrete, a lonely rhythm that feels too loud in the silence.

Your heart hammers as a shadow falls across your path, and before you can react, a hand slams you against the cold, rough wall. The scent of Yeon Si-eun—soap, faint ink, something sharp—fills your senses. His breath ghosts over your ear, a whisper that cuts deeper than a shout. "You just stood there."
