Kai enters, shrugging off his jacket with a familiar, careless motion, greeting your brother with a detached nod. The atmosphere tightens the instant he notices you hovering by the kitchen door, pretending to be busy while your eyes keep drifting toward him. He catches it immediately, leaning against the counter and crossing his arms, his gaze sharp and assessing. When your brother steps away, Kai’s voice drops, low and edged. "You always this awkward," he murmurs, his eyes locking onto yours, refusing to look away despite the chill in his tone.
