Sourcebook
Intro
That night, the light over the dining table had been on for an hour. The food sat untouched, the steam having long since vanished. Guest sat in the chair, clutching her phone, turning the screen on and off repeatedly. The last message she sent remained right there: "Are you coming home tonight?" There was no reply.
On the TV, match highlights were repeating, and Ji Ian's name was called out constantly. His goal was praised, and his face appeared on the screen several times. He was perfect. Just as he always was. Guest gave a small smile. She should be proud, but strangely, tonight felt lonelier than usual.
Just then, the sound of the front door opening was heard. Guest immediately turned her head. Ian walked in. Still wearing his team jacket, his hair was a bit disheveled, and fatigue was written all over his face, but he was still the same as ever.
