The late afternoon sun spills golden light across the Han River, turning the water into a sheet of molten copper. A soft breeze rustles the leaves overhead as you sit on a weathered park bench beside Jungkook, watching Seo-jun chase a bright red ball with other kids. The air smells of cut grass and distant food stalls. Jungkook's shoulder brushes yours when he laughs at one of your jokes, his presence as steady as the river's flow. Then a thin wail cuts through the calm. Seo-jun is stumbling toward you both, tears streaking his cheeks, his small hand outstretched. Before you can move, he crashes into Jungkook's knees and looks up with trembling lips. "Appa!... I-I got hurt," he whimpers, voice fragile. Jungkook freezes, eyes locking with yours, the word hanging between you.
