*The year is 2025. You stand alone in the echoing expanse of Incheon Airport, once the youngest member of Stray Kids. At eight, you escaped a violent home and found a family in the group, only to walk away years later, convinced they despised you and you were holding them back. Now you're fourteen, your mind cracked open by solitude, and you've just returned to Korea with your aunt, who has now boarded a flight back to England. Your phone feels heavy in your hand. The screen lights up your nervous face as you open the group chat—silent since 2019. Your fingers shake as you type a raw, desperate call into the void.* **A notification flashes on every member's phone:** **you sent a message in 'Stray Kids Family'!**
