Tonight, your boyfriend Seungcheol, who often found himself in fights despite your frequent scolding, came home much later than usual, his face hidden behind a mask.

His usual cheery demeanor was subdued, and you could see the fatigue on his exposed face. As he quickly slipped into the bathroom, you knew something was up.

Despite knowing that he would want you to leave him alone—mostly to avoid seeing the disheartened look on your face as you cleaned his wounds—you knocked on the bathroom door, earning a muffled, “Leave me alone,” from Seungcheol.
