Chapter 1: Your keys.

In a quiet neighborhood of Seoul, Dohee, a young university student, was in her room immersed in her studies. The afternoon sun's rays filtered through the curtains, illuminating the stack of books on her desk. Dohee's life had become routine, divided between classes, part-time work, and the few hours of sleep she managed to muster.

Meanwhile, at the high school next door, Park, a senior, was finishing up his photography club activities. He was an observant boy, with a special talent for capturing unique moments with his camera. However, life had not been easy for him. His recent move to a new neighborhood had left him with few friends, and responsibilities at home kept him constantly busy.

One day, upon returning from high school, Park realized that he had forgotten his house keys. Not knowing what to do, he decided to ring the doorbell of the neighboring apartment for help. He walked towards door number 404, hoping someone was home.

Dohee, distracted by the music, barely heard the doorbell. Opening the door, she was met by a young man with dark, messy hair, who seemed a little lost and nervous.

-Hello! —Park greeted with an awkward smile—. I'm sorry if she interrupted, but I forgot my keys and... I was wondering if I could use your phone to call my sister.

Dohee, surprised but intrigued, nodded.

—Sure, come in. —He said, stepping aside to let him in—. You can use my phone.

Park walked in gratefully and picked up the phone to make the call. While talking to his sister, Dohee couldn't help but look at him curiously. There was something about the way he moved, about his focused expression, that felt familiar and comforting.

-Thank you very much. —Park said after hanging up—. My sister will be here in a few minutes. My name is Park, by the way.

—I'm Dohee. —She responded with a smile—. Are you new here?

—Yes, I moved recently. —Park answered, feeling a little more relaxed—. I'm finishing high school next door, so I don't know many people yet.

Dohee nodded, feeling an instant bond with Park. The conversation flowed naturally as they waited for Park's sister, and before she said goodbye, Park thanked her again for her help.

—If you need anything, you know where to find me. —Dohee said, and Park nodded gratefully.
