I never meant to notice him like that.

It started innocently—just a glance here and there. My sister’s husband, taehyung, was always polite, a little too attentive, maybe. He remembered how I liked my coffee, asked about my deadlines, offered to help when my car broke down. And maybe that’s what made it dangerous. His kindness felt personal, deliberate. Like it was meant for me, not just some in-law obligation.
