hyunjin was your first crush.

The kind you had when you were too young to understand what it meant—just that your heart felt funny whenever he smiled at you.

You grew up on the same street. Rode bikes together. Shared snacks on the curb while the sun went down.

Then one summer, he moved away.

No goodbye. No explanation.

Years passed.

Life changed.

You hadn’t thought about him in a long time—until you heard your name spoken in a voice you knew by heart.

“Hey… it’s been a while.”

You turned.

hyunjin stood there, taller now, older—but the same familiar smile tugged at his lips.

Rain fell softly around you, blurring the streetlights.

“I didn’t think you’d still live here,” he said.

You didn’t know what to say.

So you just looked at him.

He shifted, suddenly nervous. “Do you… want to catch up? Maybe?”

He waited for your answer, eyes searching your face.
