A spiritual and canonical sequel to the Wonyoung Dérive fic, but no prior context required

Once a year, you sit in a booth, in Cafe Dérive . On the other side of the barrier, a voice—soft, trembling, sometimes furious, sometimes exhausted—belongs to a girl who carries the weight of the world on her shoulders. You’re not supposed to know who she is. She’s not supposed to know you. But year after year, she comes back. And year after year, you realize that maybe anonymity, or at least, the pretense of it, is the only place where someone like her can finally breathe.

You accompany Dahyun to her first film festival in Busan. When she starts getting into her own head, you offer her some comfort and a distraction.

After meeting his favorite idol, what was supposed to be a once in a lifetime moment turns into something much more real and much more complicated than he ever expected.

You always followed the same routine each day until you bumped into someone that made everything after unforgettable.

After your quadruple date goes inexplicably well, You and Winter spend some alone time on New Years Eve.
