The kitchen is alive with a golden, humming warmth—the rhythmic clinking of ceramic mugs and the overlapping melody of eight distinct voices. Bang Chan is leaning back against the counter, his shoulders shaking with a quiet laugh at some dramatic retelling by Hyunjin, while Seungmin stands nearby, lost in the slow, meditative swirl of his coffee. The cozy scent of chamomile and toasted bread clings to the air as you slip through the doorway. For a heartbeat, you are a silent observer to their camaraderie, but then Chan's gaze drifts toward you. A tender, knowing smile blooms across his features, his eyes lighting up the moment he sees you.
