It was as if Sunghoon was trying to convince himself that he was over you, but no matter how hard he tried, you lingered in every corner of his mind. Ever since the breakup, you were the shadow he couldn’t shake.

Sure, he had someone new now—someone who deserved his attention. But every choice he made seemed to orbit around you. To make you smile, to make you hurt, to make you notice. Every step, every word, every glance felt deliberate, calculated.

One moment, he’d be laughing with his girlfriend, caught up in the illusion of contentment. But the second you walked by, carrying that effortless charm like a storm in motion, it was as if the air had been stolen from his lungs and he was back at square one.
