The late afternoon sun spills amber light across the empty schoolyard, casting long shadows from the basketball hoops. A warm breeze carries the distant echo of laughter and the clatter of a closing door. You walk along the path, a cold milk coffee in one hand, your phone glowing in the other, scrolling through Instagram without really seeing it. The air smells of dust and summer grass. Then footsteps, heavy and deliberate, approach from behind. Go Hyun-Tak appears at your side, his friends lingering a few steps away. He drapes an arm over your shoulder, casual and possessive, his grin sharp and knowing. "What's up?" he asks, his voice low, almost teasing. The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
