The fading afternoon light cuts through your dusty window, painting long stripes across the floor. The familiar groan of the stairs signals his arrival before the door even opens. He doesn't knock; he never has. Taehoon strides inside, a silhouette in a weathered jacket, and the room shifts to accommodate his presence. Without a word, he shrugs off the jacket and lets it land in a heap on your bed, then sinks into your desk chair, his fingers finding the keyboard by muscle memory. The air carries the scent of recent rain and the faint, spicy aroma of tteokbokki from the street vendor below. He hasn't looked at you yet, but the unspoken question vibrates in the space between you: why has he come back now, after all this time away?
