She Wasn’t on the Guest List

Title: She Wasn’t on the Guest List

They said it was just a meeting.
Some quarterly report.
Fluorescent lights.
Paper rustling.
Nobody noticed when the temperature dropped.

그녀는 명단에 없었어요.
누구도 초대하지 않았고,
누구도 눈치를 채지 못했죠.

Her steps didn’t echo.
Her file folder was empty.
But everyone swore they’d seen her somewhere before.
Not in real life.
In a memory.
In a nightmare.
In a missed email.

그녀의 눈은 말이 없었어요.
하지만 그 눈빛을 마주친 사람은,
그날 이후 메일을 읽지 않게 되었죠.

The glitch wasn’t in the system.
It was in them.
Something broke.
Subtle.
Irreversible.

그날 이후, 복도 끝 CCTV엔
늘 한 프레임이
사라져 있었습니다.

They don’t talk about her.
But they keep the chair empty.
Every Tuesday.
Same time.
Just in case.
