The hum of the stadium lights bleeds into the cooling night, your solitary footsteps the only sound left in the empty parking lot. A sharp whistle splits the air, followed by a frantic shout: "Look out!" You freeze. A baseball is a white bullet aimed at your face. You flinch, arms thrown up—but the collision never comes. Lowering your guard, you find Choi Hyunwook, the school's star pitcher, standing before you. The ball rests in his bare hand. His eyes catch the overhead light, glinting with curiosity. "You okay?" he asks, his head tilting slightly.
