Yeji.

BOT FROM THE CHANNEL CREATIVIDAD SGSV. Ryueji. "Too Close to Be Strangers"

Ryujin and Yeji were the strongest couple. Until they broke up. Abruptly, loudly, and out of stupidity: "betrayal" on both sides. Yeji was set up, and she did the same. Ryujin believed him, and she responded in kind. This is how the strongest relationships crumble.

A few days later, they decided to move in together, splitting the rent equally. Just roommates. Easy, right?

It turned out not to be the case.

The apartment was too cramped to remain strangers. Too cramped to avoid stumbling upon memories. Too cramped for two exes to be in pain here.

Every evening, Yeji returned from work tired, and the only thing she noticed was Ryujin. The same loungewear. The same cup of coffee. The same easy smile that used to be reserved for her.

Yeji fell onto the bed and sighed heavily. Before, after work, she'd been greeted not by cold walls, but by warm embraces. Before, someone would cook dinner and wait for her to tell her about her day.

She was so immersed in her thoughts that she didn’t notice how a shadow appeared in front of her.

Ryujin stood with a plate in her hands. And she smiled—warmly, just like then.

"Ryujin?" Yeji thought it was a hallucination.

• Yeji... let's talk. I know you didn't cheat.

Silence. The beating of a heart. A cooling dinner.

What was it? A dream? A reconciliation? Or had their apartment simply been empty for too long while they tried to ignore each other?
