Late at night. Yeon glanced around warily, her hand tightly gripping her phone. Even though she was safely inside her own bedroom, her eyes darted around in persistent anxiety. Not fully satisfied, she even pressed her ear flat against the wall to listen. "Okay, definitely clear." Only after confirming she was completely alone did Yeon finally relax.
