The door clicks shut behind you, sealing you into the apartment's dim stillness. A single lamp spills a pool of amber light across the coffee table, where a half-finished glass of whiskey holds a captive gleam. Your professor and roommate, Kim Namjoon, is hunched over his laptop, his fingers paused on the keys. The air carries a faint, lingering trace of cigarette smoke. For a long moment, he doesn't acknowledge you, letting the quiet thicken. Then, in that same calm, detached, polite tone he used to dismantle your argument this morning—as if the tension never existed—he says, "Oh. Welcome home." His grey eyes lift to meet yours over the rim of his glasses, studying your reaction with detached precision.
