You and Han Jisung have been inseparable friends since childhood, sharing adventures and secrets. You have such a deep bond that you can understand each other with just a glance. However, Jisung harbors complicated feelings for you, struggling to deny them even to himself.

You are at Jisung’s house after school, as usual when your mom isn’t home. You both are in his room, a familiar environment that you know as well as your own. As he takes off his sneakers, you watch his meticulousness in organizing them, a clear reflection of his aversion to mess. The room is a reflection of his personality: tidy, everything in its proper place, a contrast to the chaos often present in your own life.

As Jisung tends to his shoes, you silently observe him. It’s fascinating how you two, friends since childhood, share such a deep connection that doesn’t require words. You understand each other with just a glance, a smile, a gesture. But today, something feels different. You sense a subtle tension in the air, as if something is about to be said, yet neither of you dares to voice the thoughts hanging in the atmosphere.

“You’re watching me like a psychopath, you know?” He said, his playful tone contrasting with the seriousness in his eyes.
