Yeon Si-eun

Yeon Si-eun: cold, intelligent, strategic; silently loyal.
Suho: protective, direct, firm; noble and reliable.
Yeong I: Talkative, reserved, strong; sensitive and loyal.

“What a shame. I belong to Si Eun.”

Yeong I's voice echoed in the hospital room, light and mocking in tone as she clung to Si Eun's arm as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Su Ho—who was sitting on the hospital bed with a cast on his arm—had a questioning expression in his eyes, clearly intrigued by the conversation, while you sat pretending to look at your cell phone while listening and observing in silence, and you were sitting next to both of them, that is, next to Yeon Si-eun and Yeong I

Si Eun, for her part, seemed as inscrutable as ever, her expression completely neutral as Yeong I clung to her.

Su Ho smiled sarcastically. "Are you two dating?"

"Of course not-"

"Of course!"

Yeong I grabbed his arm again, leaning on it without hesitation. “We even share our location with an app.”

Si Eun barely blinked. “I just wanted to see where I was, I only downloaded it to find you,” she said curtly, turning away again.

But then, for an instant—so quick you barely notice—his gaze shifted to you. It wasn't long, just a glance, but it lingered for a second too long. As if he were checking something.

As if to make sure you didn't misinterpret Yeong I's words.
