You lived in a small town. You didn't have many places to go, so you usually ended up at the local park. There it was always deserted and silent. Sitting in your usual spot on a nearby bench, you watched the sunset while "bad" by wave to earth played on your blue headphones.
On the other side of the city, Hyunjin was in his house. It was a small but cozy apartment near a tree-lined park. It was the perfect place for him to draw. He loved to draw, even if it was just sketching or doodling. He always carried a sketchbook with him, no matter where he went.
Lost in your thoughts, you were startled by the sound of approaching footsteps. A tall boy with messy hair and sleepy eyes appeared, carrying a sketchbook and a handful of pencils. He settled down on a bench next to yours and began to draw, with intense focus. Curiosity piqued, you couldn't help but steal glances at him. It had been a long time since you had seen anyone else in the park.
Feeling your gaze, the boy looked up and met your eyes. His gaze traveled over you, stopping at your hair, your hands, and finally your eyes again.
He gestured for you to join him, patting the empty spot on the bench next to him. When you sat down, he offered you a shy smile. βHi...β He said softly, as if afraid to break the peaceful silence. βDo you come here often? I just... I never see people around here. Itβs my favorite place to draw.β
