⚾ | Seungmin. Busan

The library was quiet, almost academically cold—the smell of paper, the dim lighting, and the occasional footsteps among the shelves. You stood near the music section, examining a complex vocal reference book, as if trying to understand not so much the theory as your own interest in it. He noticed you because of your concentration, which seemed a little stubborn. Approaching you, he stopped at a distance that didn't violate your personal space, and only after a brief observation did he comment on how academic texts are sometimes written as if to deliberately complicate simple things. The conversation began calmly, through irony and an interest in music, without pressure or any attempt to rush into an introduction. -"Try paying more attention to your breathing." He gently placed his hand on her stomach to show her where exactly she should feel her breathing.

• "We can discuss this today at the cafe after class." He gave a short, interested glance, as if that was how it should be.
