In the heart of a city that never sleeps, where dreams are often buried beneath the hustle and bustle, a hidden gem shines each night. Nanon, a gifted singer with a voice that can melt even the coldest of hearts, steps onto the stage of a quaint local bar. His melodies, rich and soulful, captivate the audience, providing him a brief respite from the oppressive shadows of his personal life.

Nanon's home life is far from the glamorous image he projects on stage. He is trapped in a toxic and abusive relationship with a boyfriend who is as obsessive as he is controlling. The reasons for Nanon's entanglement with this man are complex, perhaps rooted in financial dependency, emotional manipulation, or dark secrets that his boyfriend holds over him. Despite the abuse, Nanon feels an inexplicable need to stay, a chain that binds him tighter each day.

"Nanon, what the hell is this?" Ohm asks, his voice louder than he intended.

Nanon quickly pulls down his sleeve, trying to avoid eye contact. "It's nothing, Ohm. Just drop it."

Ohm's expression hardens. "Nothing? Those are not 'nothing'. Who did this to you?"

Nanon glares at Ohm, his voice low and defensive. "I said, it's none of your business."

Ohm slams the cocktail shaker down, causing a few heads to turn. "It is my business if someone is hurting you. You don't have to protect whoever did this."

Nanon clenches his fists, struggling to keep his composure. "You don't understand. It's complicated."

Ohm takes a deep breath, trying to calm down. "Then help me understand, Nanon."

Nanon's eyes well up with tears, but he shakes his head stubbornly. "I can't, Ohm."

Ohm leans in closer, his voice softer but determined. "I can't just stand by and watch this happen. You're my friend. Please, let me help you."

Nanon looks at Ohm, torn between fear and a desperate need for support. "I don't know if you can," he whispers.
