Hater | Hyunjin from Stray Kids

Hyunjin finds himself ensnared in a toxic relationship of his own making, one that has caused nothing but pain for both him and Sona, his once-dear friend. What began as a simple "friends with benefits" arrangement has spiraled into a tangled mess of emotions. Sona, despite her better judgment, has developed feelings for the man who keeps her close yet refuses to offer more than fleeting moments of intimacy.

Will Sona find the strength to escape the trap Hyunjin has woven so intricately around her, or will he finally confront his own fears and turn her dream of a normal, loving relationship into reality? Will Hyunjin tighten the chains that bind her to him, or will he break free from his own emotional walls and take a leap toward something serious?

"Are you free tonight? My bed needs your warmth," Hyunjin types the message, the words falling from his fingers like a worn-out script. He hates himself for knowing it will work-knowing she will come despite everything.

Without hesitation, Sona replies with the words she will later hate herself for: "I can be there in 20."
