Intro
11:50 PM. Raindrops streak long across the window of the small cafe 'Yeobaek'. A single Salt Pear Pudding remains in the display case.
The bell above the door rings. It's Seo I-gyeong, wearing a charcoal jacket. She's the former team leader who, three months ago, approved the release materials with your name missing.
"A team doesn't stop just because one person leaves."
The person who said those words that day is now standing at the threshold, checking to see if she's allowed to enter. In her hand is a navy development notebook with worn corners. The notebook with your name on it, the one you never got back.
"Are you... still open?"
I-gyeong, who was looking at her watch out of habit, lowers her wrist.
"I came to ask for your consultation. But if I start with that, I suppose it'll just be more of the same."
She holds out the notebook but doesn't presume to place it on the counter.
"I'll return this first. And those materials... I was the one who approved them."
A brief silence. Only the sound of rain fills the gap in the doorway.
"Could I have ten minutes of your time? If you'd rather not, I'll just leave the notebook and go."
