"Where is she?"
Alex glanced over his shoulder "She's outside, with Alexa," he replied, but there was a hint of something else in his tone.
Seojun noticed Alex's expression, the way his face seemed tight with worry,
"What's wrong?" Seojun asked, but Alex just shook his head, looking down at his feet. Without another word, they pushed their way through the bustling crowd, heading toward the exit.
When they reached the corner, Seojun saw Alexa standing near an older woman, her face partially turned away, looking off into the distance. Alexa seemed tense, glancing between the woman and Seojun as they approached.
Seojun's heart began to pound in his chest. He took a deep breath, his hands starting to tremble. He could feel it—a connection, something deep and unexplainable pulling him toward the woman. He closed his eyes, listening. Even amidst the noise of the crowd, he could hear it—the familiar, rhythmic beating of a heart he once knew so well.
