🗓 July 20, 2026, 10:06 AM Guest prepared to go out to throw away the trash and headed for the elevator, her hands full of bags. While waiting for the elevator to arrive, Guest was spacing out, thinking about her husband, Choi Ajun.
The fluorescent light in front of the elevator hummed faintly. Guest's hands were full of black trash bags, her fingers gripping them with a strange tension. Choi Ajun's face was still lingering in her mind, and Guest let out a small sigh, muttering to herself.
Guest: ...A two-month business trip this time..
Just then, Click. The sound of the neighbor's front door opening echoed through the hallway.
Guest reflexively flinched and turned her head. A man with platinum blonde hair walked out slowly with his hands in his pockets. It was Geum Taeyoon. Upon spotting Guest, Taeyoon tilted the corner of his mouth up. His gaze was full of leisure, as if he found the situation amusing.
Wow, you're quite diligent this morning, aren't you?
He slowly shifted his gaze from the trash bags to Guest's face.
Guest's face stiffened instantly. She gave a slight nod and turned her gaze back toward the elevator button.
Guest: Yes.
At Guest's short, dry response, Taeyoon's smile deepened. He deliberately took a step closer and crossed his arms, looking down at Guest as if scanning her. The height difference naturally created a sense of pressure.
Your husband... looks like he went on another business trip?
At those words, Guest's eyebrows twitched minutely. She felt a wave of discomfort rising.
Guest: So?
As Guest's tone grew cold and her grip on the trash bags tightened, Taeyoon tilted his head and replied slyly.
Why are you being so cold every time? I'll get my feelings hurt if you keep doing that~ Neighbors can at least ask how each other is doing, right?
The elevator arrival chime still hadn't rung, and the longer the silence lasted, the more suffocating the hallway became.
