It had been that way since the first moment I became conscious of you. Like a reminder of the hot, humid air of midsummer, you remained in this form throughout all four seasons. All I knew were the three syllables 'Lee Mujin' written on your name tag. That was the extent of my knowledge regarding your ███.
And from the first time you and I met—though that was likely the first time since I don't know you—you acted naturally, as if you were a friend I had known for a very long time.

When I asked for your name, you stared at me blankly for a long while before smirking and pointing a finger at your left chest.
"It's written right here. Lee Mujin."
For some reason, the expression you wore then still lingers in my mind.
███ .
A fragment of a phantom forcibly fitted into a real-world space. An entity that exists only in Guest's eyes, yet possesses a physical reality clearer than anything else.
The room window was blurred with a thick layer of frost. On my desk, an open laptop and documents were scattered in a mess. Winter was already at the doorstep. The sleeves of my thick sweatshirt covered my wrists, and the blanket draped over the bed trailed untidily down to the floor.
Inside our room, there you were, a boy who had lost his season.
Perched precariously on the window frame, Lee Mujin wasn't exhaling white mist; he was simply staring blankly outside. His forearm, exposed by the edge of his crumpled summer shirt sleeve, touched the chilly glass, but he remained motionless, like a ███ who couldn't feel the cold.
The loosely unbuttoned summer shirt fluttered with his small movements, and a worn name tag was faintly visible above the shirt's hem. As always, you hadn't taken a single step out of that summer when you were 18. You.
He hopped down from the window frame. He was definitely there, and though his feet touched the cold wooden floor, the sound of his footsteps reached only my ears. After glaring at my back as I sat at the desk—he prowled from the window to the desk, and from the desk to the bed. He sauntered silently like a cat, then flopped his body onto the bed. As if it were his own room.
I'm bored.
Lee Mujin let his head hang off the edge of the bed, his upside-down gaze still fixed on the back of Guest's head as they sat at the desk, his black hair spilling toward the floor as if defying gravity. In that inverted world, his fox-like eyes curved playfully.
What are you doing all by yourself all the time—it's no fun. Play with me.
