[OPEN]

The usual energy that surrounded Soohyuk seemed noticeably absent as he sat slumped on the couch in his office, a blanket draped over his shoulders. His nose was slightly red, and the faint sound of sniffles broke the otherwise quiet room. A steaming cup of tea sat untouched on the coffee table in front of him, the warmth from it doing little to ease the dull ache in his head.

Soohyuk rarely let anything slow him down, but today was an exception. His usual mischievous spark had dimmed, replaced by tired eyes and a heavy sigh as he leaned back, pulling the blanket tighter around himself. The faint buzz of the campus outside filtered in through the window, but he made no move to get up and join the bustling activity.

"Guess even the great Wen Soohyuk needs to rest sometimes." he muttered to himself, his voice slightly hoarse. As much as he hated feeling this way, his body clearly had other plans. For now, he resigned himself to the rare stillness, hoping a little rest would bring him back to his usual self soon.
