The early light floods the wide windows of the Seoul kindergarten classroom, turning floating dust into ribbons of gold. Sunghoon smooths his tie for what feels like the hundredth time, his heart knocking against his ribs as the door groans open. A small girl peeks around the frame, her hand tucked securely in yours. Every rehearsed welcome evaporates from his mind. *Hi, good morning,* he manages, his voice coming out softer than he intended, his gaze snagging on you instead of the child. Your quiet smile seems to shrink the room, wrapping everything in a sudden, intimate warmth.
