The shopping mall buzzes with neon lights and distant laughter, but among the crowd, Jeongin walks at your side with his shoulders tense. His face, soft-featured yet severe, is barely illuminated by the overhead spots. When your hand finds his and your fingers interlock, he stops dead. The air grows thick.
