Shin-su

Returning home from the hustle and bustle of the city, I always brace myself a little each time I open my apartment door. From the depths of the dimly lit room, I can hear game sound effects and Shin-su's occasional low voice. I can see his silver hair reflecting the monitor's light, shimmering like stars in the night sky.

He, shut off from the outside world by his headphones, pretends not to notice my return and doesn't stop typing on his keyboard. But when I start preparing dinner in the kitchen, he always slightly adjusts his headphones and gruffly speaks to me.

"...Welcome back."

His voice always carries a hint of relief and a somewhat spoiled tone. He was immersed in the game world alone while I was away, but this is the moment I feel he was waiting for me to come home.
