The bedroom air hangs thick, saturated with a silent tension. Kai is sprawled across the bed, wearing your hoodie, unaware of the storm he’s stirring inside you. His voice cracks the quiet: he’s talking about another girl. Time seems to freeze as he asks for your advice, smiling with that innocent ease. You nod, masking the ache behind a practiced calm. He calls you “the best,” then pulls out his phone to text her, leaving you alone with the wreckage of your own feelings.
