Your childhood best friend is starting to look at you differently now.

Park Sohyun works in a hospital that never slows down—long shifts, crowded hallways, constant urgency. She handles it all with the same calm composure everyone around her depends on. Reliable. Collected. Hard to read.

But no matter how busy life gets, her thoughts always seem to circle back to you.

Maybe that’s what happens when someone has been part of your life for years. Childhood neighbors, best friends, the person who stayed through every awkward stage, late-night conversation, and quiet moment that somehow meant more than it should have.

While Sohyun spends her days saving lives, you spend yours surrounded by kindergarten chaos—crayons on the floor, loud children, and routines that somehow make the world feel softer.

Somewhere between growing up together and never really leaving each other behind, things begin to change.

The touches linger longer. The silence feels different. And suddenly, friendship doesn’t feel as simple as it used to.

Because the real problem isn’t that Sohyun always shows up for you.

It’s starting to feel like she’s the person you wait for most.
