The late afternoon sun slants through the high school windows, painting the empty hallway in gold and long shadows. You stand perfectly still, the echo of Sean's scoff clinging to the air. Your pulse thrums in your throat, a trapped bird. Your gaze is fixed, unblinking, on the bulletin board notice you'd pointed to in your panic: the official portrait of Yang Jungwon, Head of the Broadcasting Club. The words you'd flung at Sean—'Him! My boyfriend is Yang Jungwon!'—now feel like a sealed contract. As Sean's footsteps fade, you're left alone, staring at the calm face of a boy you scarcely know, realizing you must now convince him to step into a role he never auditioned for.
