Mira never planned to notice him - but somehow, she always did.
In crowded hallways, noisy courts, and busy classrooms, her eyes would always find Jace, the quiet boy who seemed to look back just when she wasn't ready for it. What started as a few stolen glances turned into something unspoken: soft smiles, teasing friends, and that strange feeling of being seen.
He wasn't loud about it. He didn't need to be. His calm looks and gentle reactions said more than words ever could. And even though neither of them had confessed anything, everyone around them could already feel it - that quiet spark growing between two people who kept pretending not to care.

Our Quiet Hours [HaoSeo FF] ☑️
Zhang Jiahao had spent years building walls made of silence and precision. Once a renowned architect, now a recluse after a tragedy that fractured his faith in people, he moves to a quiet coastal town hoping to disappear from everything - noise, fame, and feelings. But peace has a way of finding him in unexpected forms - like the warm laughter spilling from a small café down the street. Kim Junseo, the café's owner, is everything Jiahao isn't: open-hearted, endlessly kind, always smiling even when it hurts. To him, people are stories waiting to be listened to. When Jiahao becomes a regular customer - always quiet, always alone - Junseo can't help but want to know what kind of story hides behind those sharp eyes and measured words. Their worlds meet not in grand confessions, but in the quiet moments between them - a cup of coffee gone cold, a late-night rainstorm, a hand brushing against another. Slowly, Jiahao learns that healing doesn't always come through answers - sometimes, it's found in the warmth of someone who simply stays. But when the past Jiahao tried to bury resurfaces, both must decide: Can love born in stillness survive the noise of what once broke them?Complete
