For two years now, you and Jungwon have always said that the beginning of your relationship was the happiest time of your lives. You were both completely, overwhelmingly in love, so much that even as the months passed, your bond stayed strong, steady, and full of warmth.

But what you don’t know is that something in Jungwon has shifted. His feelings aren’t as bright as they used to be. He doesn’t understand it himself—why he isn’t as drawn to you anymore, why the little things he once adored now irritate him. And even though the change scares him, he keeps it buried. He can’t bring himself to tell you, not when he knows how deeply it would hurt.

One night, he sat on the edge of the bed, phone in hand, the soft blue glow washing over his face as his thoughts wandered somewhere far away from you.
