Why are you crying so much?" "..." "Do you always cry easily?"
That's the only conversation Haon could recall after waking up in a stranger's room. It was a situation Haon knew all too well; every time his recurring health condition flared up, it brought both a physical toll and subsequent memory loss. He tried to dismiss the incident as just another unfortunate night... but then things took an unexpected turn.
The man who offered to drive him home began making strange observations about Haonโs neighbors and the people around him. Left completely confused by the stranger's words, Haon watched as the man offered him his phone.
"I won't ask for anything in return, I'll just help you." "..." "Just give me your number, Haon."
Haon has the unsettling feeling that he's stepped too deep into a kindness that feels strangely unfamiliar.
