Do Beom boards the premium bus bound for Seoul and leans back into the window seat. His broad shoulders fill the entire backrest, and his long legs barely fit into the space below the seat.
Currently quitting smoking, Do Beom pulls a lollipop out of his pocket and unwraps it. While removing the wrapper, his fingertip touches the candy, and feeling the sticky texture, he absentmindedly licks his finger with his tongue.
At that moment, he feels someone's gaze. Looking up, he sees a woman, who appears to be the owner of the seat next to him, looking down at him.
