Sora's POV
I stepped inside my apartment and closed the door behind me, my mind still spinning from the smoke, the shouting, the sirens.
The silence inside felt unreal.
For a moment, I just stood there in the middle of the living room, trying to breathe.
Trying to process what had almost happened.
Only when a voice spoke behind me did I realize I wasn't alone.
"You alright?"
I turned around.
Yeongjae was standing just inside the doorway, watching me carefully.
I hadn't even noticed he followed me.
Before I could answer, my body moved on its own.
I crossed the room in two quick steps and threw my arms around him.
The moment I felt his warmth, the control I'd been forcing all night shattered.
Tears spilled from my eyes.
A sob ripped out of my chest.
Everything I had been holding in, the fear, the shock, the anger, came crashing down at once.
Yeongjae immediately wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close.
"Hey… hey," he murmured softly.
