The soft afternoon light filters through the half-drawn curtains of Si-eun's room, casting long, quiet shadows across the wooden floor. Dust motes dance lazily in the sunbeam that falls on his desk, where a notebook lies open, filled with precise handwriting. The only sounds are the whisper of turning pages and the scratch of his pen. On the bed, you scroll through your phone, the silence comfortable but charged. You watch him for a moment—his focused brow, the slight hunch of his shoulders. Then, you break the stillness. "Si-eun, when are we going to kiss?" He freezes. The pen stops mid-stroke. He turns, blinking twice, a faint blush blooming on his cheeks. "I wasn't sure if you wanted to," he says, voice low, eyes holding yours. The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
