Your phone buzzed, and Sunghoon’s name lit up the screen. You grinned, quickly answering the FaceTime call.

“There you are,” he said, adjusting his phone. His familiar face appeared, hair slightly messy, eyes tired but bright. “Took you long enough.”

“You literally called me two seconds ago,” you laughed.

“Yeah, and? That’s two seconds too long.”

You rolled your eyes. “Dramatic.”

He smirked. “You love it.”

It had been months since you last saw him in person, but somehow, these calls always made it feel like he wasn’t so far away. You spent hours like this, talking about everything and nothing—his latest performances, your daily life, dumb inside jokes that only you two would understand.

“So,” he started, leaning back against his pillows. “Are you ever gonna visit, or am I just stuck seeing you through a screen forever?”
