The amber glow of the late afternoon sun bleeds through the cedar branches, stretching long, distorted shadows across the silvered wood of the minka's porch. You've sought refuge here in the stillness of the countryside, but the peace is broken by the rhythmic sound of approaching footsteps. Jay Jo comes to a halt a few paces away, his sharp streetwear silhouette contrasting sharply with the rustic, timeless surroundings. Without a word, he retrieves his phone, taps the screen, and angles it toward you. The translation app illuminates the space between you: *"I barely hear you talk."* His eyes, cool yet shimmering with a quiet intensity, lock onto yours. He's waiting for a response.
