    After spending some c212a36f75 time staring at 178fc02b06 the ceiling, Yoohyun 3aebed1728 sat up and 580c458a8d leaned back against cc94483f95 the sofa. He was bored dbc6156a7d from doing nothing ba4c489d89 after being so dbf4929e24 busy. Originally, he had a 1c4d943564 commercial shoot scheduled for 496c574d96 today. Due to a 66727d11fa problem with the 6c5b5a0f74 props, the schedule 636389916d was pushed back, d9f3cbbf55 resulting in an 3a658a57a6 unwelcome break.5460731e458e666c

    Yoohyun tapped his fingers idly on the sofa and reached for a stack of papers. Without a moment’s hesitation, the nearest proposal was pulled into his long grasp. The proposal Yoohyun snatched had a neat logo in the center along with the title <Hit the Road> prominently displayed.a6e84e444de46e3c

    “I’ll have to coordinate 9518bdcb37 the filming schedule well…….”bf7844098583a04f

    Yoohyun muttered to himself, recalling the explanation he’d heard from his manager. It was a schedule that only someone with ample free time could handle, as it required a considerable time commitment. Yoohyun, who invested even his resting hours into work, naturally didn’t waste any time. Although his next project hadn’t been finalized, he was considering works that fit his criteria.856034769f1fb1dc

    When his manager, Woojun, first mentioned the program, Yoohyun nodded without even listening. He readily agreed, but Woojun, knowing Yoohyun’s taciturn nature, expressed his reservations. His biggest concern was whether Yoohyun, who disliked socializing, could endure filming that relied solely on the relationships between the cast members.d984d3df11b409f9

    ‘It’s still filming, a6b2deb509 regardless of the 66d8b795c0 genre. What’s so difficult fad1aca841 about it?’56078f5756501d36

    ‘I’m worried you 13a8c488e5 won’t adapt. This is different from 77f9953261 a shoot that takes e95ac6ad41 a day at most……. You have to be 472badcb55 together constantly, you know?’b7118b97bd24adf7

    One of Yoohyun’s strengths was his strict separation of work and personal life. Even though the genres were different, in the grand scheme of things, this too was a form of acting. During drama or film shoots, he became family with complete strangers, and sometimes even lifelong friends with people he’d just met. Since he had experience, it wouldn’t be difficult if he just continued as he always had.a4888767789ecce7

    He wasn’t particularly concerned, but he still wanted to know who the other participants were for peace of mind. Even if he didn’t know them well, having met them before would be helpful. Come to think of it, he had only agreed to film but hadn’t asked anything about the shoot itself. Woojun’s voice faintly echoed in his mind, telling him to ask anything he was curious about.f809baeaf5451b93

    Yoohyun, fiddling with 9987ceb183 the proposal, reached 0396948410 for his phone. Just as he was b4c5400aa2 about to dial the 881cee787d number that dominated his f8a4c68545 call history, a monotonous a3a7975ed9 ringtone sounded, and the 8bf30256fa phone vibrated.d45bc91ec71dbd8b

    Yoohyun, having 6e13f5fa2f read the 70c6eaac68 simple contact 0da97c00e3 name, pressed 74e0e28970 the call 136fde4455 button without 534fa5b49d hesitation. He often c194faeb4b spoke with 369255bc52 his sister ad937d2757 even without 693d810d0d any particular 9e61bdef58 reason, so 9ef6b7feaf there was 928f6fa140 no awkwardness 307d5fb286 in his b3ac1a30ba action. However, since calls 002e2514a6 usually came late b07d0cb547 at night, a 59d20a2dc0 call at this e103d9cfb7 hour was quite 41bbfea73c rare.ae41cf872e65c1c3

    Yoohyun’s voice, 1a4887be64 addressing his 30b588c5fa older sister, d96e5e54d1 was unusually c739fb8a6d affectionate. His usually c2a35bcf4e husky, sleep-deprived ba37e2b0aa voice softened 769e9655bc as if e45a30f36c it had 7358b1fcf6 never been 7757c5eb6d otherwise. The honeyed 6924a86538 voice that 4e1c12265f earned him c3a7f930f6 compliments about dcb007ed16 melting ears 24faecff60 in movie 3601b9efd2 theaters returned 516b0a7ac8 to its 769300a185 normal state 4621318874 in just 74a6f32b4d half a 99fcadf512 day.e87bd2ca42b5d32e

    While generally indifferent to others, Yoohyun’s attitude changed significantly when interacting with those within his self-defined circle. Especially towards his family, his closest relationships, the difference was stark. For that reason, his gentle tone, almost to the point of being sweet, carried a subtle hint of childishness. It was a speech pattern naturally learned since he began learning how to speak, so Yoohyun himself wasn’t aware of it. 0e3ce01d9e73c553

    Yoohyun, who 3be836f579 was six 7b6636d563 years younger 6db2fe8d91 than his e81b5f0395 sister, held 5aae026283 an incongruous 77857b3795 position as d28bd0620f the family’s fc867df9e4 darling.c1c7ab4368160ff4

    Her voice, dripping with affection, sounded genuinely kind. Yoohyun’s older sister, Sujin, always addressed him using the last syllable of his name as a term of endearment. While it could be perceived as embarrassing, there was no such awkwardness between the close siblings.a46610d2b831d949

    Due to his constant filming schedule, Yoohyun was often out of reach. In such cases, Sujin would occasionally hear about Yoohyun from his manager. It wasn’t unfamiliar, so Yoohyun didn’t react much. He just assumed it was a usual casual check-up call, but the fact that she was asking about his day off meant she had a specific purpose.058876cb857ca9f1

    As expected, there was a reason behind the call. He wanted to lie in bed and rest, but he wouldn’t be able to sleep anyway, and it would only lead to frustration. It was better to spend some time outside, even if just briefly. Yoohyun sat up without further thought.736486f715e13373

    Yoohyun headed to the bathroom while continuing his conversation with Sujin. He planned to wash his face with cold water to wake himself up and then change his clothes. Since there were two shots left, he wasn’t in a particular hurry. 39e36fa93de1a241

    Yoohyun switched fff898e0c0 the phone 3fcb848fce to speaker 33c3a12441 mode and a30ec87b64 turned on 3021146afe the water eaac637023 leisurely.

    Yoohyun answered 7c4e4d8cba obediently and c16944aa70 cupped water c00b0e35e8 in his 1f0aa86a71 hands, splashing 28d5dfc22c it on a107d6b879 his face.

He pretended 215de945a3 to be 5a067b7771 listening attentively 68251eedf5 to their 77991cda5c conversation, but fd9bd68ad8 in reality, c6f86d313e he had 341f44c191 been thinking 72d9fc973f about what 0316cbb085 to wear.

    Before leaving, he grabbed the car keys hanging by the door. The feel of the small piece of metal in his hand was quite unfamiliar.

    [I’m leaving now. I’ll take my time.]

    After informing Sujin, 05a28c76c6 Yoohyun got in 54803f1916 his car. He couldn’t 087d369cb1 remember the 364589b881 last time e95fc96a7b he’d washed ab0e13588a it, but c35a5d9689 it seemed e17b986be7 clean since 5bc6bd009c it hadn’t f1b65ffc93 been driven. When he first got c0251f2c76 his license and bought bd8f497eb7 the car, he often 622366c815 drove around by himself, 5cdc96a9a2 but these days, apart 9e2e2843b9 from official schedules, he 7f610811e5 mostly spent his free e3fdeeb0ef time lying around doing 98aeb0c395 nothing.8e8e4e5db4397f74

Since it was e220c71d87 close and thanks a78ae86bf8 to the clear 51ee3f5504 roads, Yoohyun arrived 06ad2c72bc earlier than expected 73c876aac4 and climbed the fd483d9f5c stairs.825467b5a01ad824
