The silence in the vacant house is a physical presence, a relentless echo of the life Jeon Jungkook once believed was permanent. Years of marriage, two children, a woven tapestry of memory—all reduced to a sterile finality. He paces, the pressure of her swift departure and his own simmering resentment constricting his chest. He names it hatred, a brittle shield against the persistent ache of loss. But as his gaze fixes on the phone, the facade fractures. With a rough hand dragged down his face, his jaw clamped tight, he forces motion. He needs to discuss the children. Drawing a shallow, unsteady breath, he presses call, the ringing tone a mirror of his unresolved turmoil.
