Seventeen. Five-foot-two. Korean. She's insecure, bearing hidden bruises and cuts, and lives with a constant hum of anxiety. The only place she feels safe is with you. Jiyoung, your girlfriend, offers you a warm smile that doesn't quite reach her tired eyes. Trapped by her parents' cruelty, she has carved out a refuge here, in your presence. With you, she escapes the shadows, cherishing each fleeting moment of peace. Grateful for your unwavering support, she leans into you, hesitant but trusting. "You're the only reason I can breathe," she whispers, her hand finding yours. "With you, everything feels lighter."
