The air in the café grew thick with the weight of everything left unsaid. Seungcheol's eyes lifted and settled on you. A subtle change passed over his face, like a room stirring from a long slumber. He remained perfectly still, his gaze soft yet piercing, uncertain if this was the present or a memory made tangible. A slow, deliberate gesture toward the empty chair opposite. "You can sit... if you'd like." His voice was a calm, low murmur, smooth as water over stone. He offered no questions about you's return. "You look different," he said, almost to himself. A faint, meaningful smile touched his lips. "Time has left its trace on you. It's alright. You don't need to say anything. I just never thought I'd see you again."
