"NO! I don't want to see you anymore!" 5-year-old Sunghoon yelled at Jaeyoon.

Jaeyoon could feel his eyes sting as they began filling with tears.

"Sunghoon..."

"Just... Stay away from me..." Sunghoon said as he ran away...

1 week earlier...

When 5-year-old Jaeyoon got home on Thursday, all he could think about was Sunghoon.

He couldn't stop thinking about the way his hand felt when his fingers had been tangled in Sunghoon's. There was this tingling sensation that made him want to keep on holding Sunghoon's hand forever. 

He almost couldn't bring himself to let go - the only reason he had was that Sunghoon had looked into his eyes and promised to meet him again on Saturday.

And now, Jaeyoon felt kind of annoyed that there was a whole day between Thursday and Saturday. All he wanted to do was see Sunghoon again.

He sighed as he sat at the kitchen table where his mom was cooking dinner.

"What's wrong, honey?" Jaeyoon's mom asked when she saw a long look on her son's face.

"Why is there a whole day between today and Saturday?" Jaeyoon said looking at his mom with sad puppy eyes.

Jaeyoon's mom raised an eyebrow in confusion but couldn't help but smile at the cuteness of her son.

"I guess something special is happening on Saturday?" she said as she poured a glass of apple juice for her son.

Jaeyoon took the glass from his mother as he sighed and said, "Sunghoon promised he'd see me on Saturday."

Although the boy had been sad and sighing just a few moments earlier, his eyes sparkled and his lips curled as he had said Sunghoon's name. 

Jaeyoon's mom noticed this change and began to ask about Sunghooon.

"Sunghoon, huh? Who is this Sunghoon?"

"Well, I only met him for 30 minutes or so, but he is the best person ever"

"The best person ever, huh? What about me?"

"You're my mom! You don't count."

Jaeyoon's mom laughed, "Okay, what makes him the best person ever?"

Jaeyoon sighed a sigh of content as he replied, "He just is..."

"Even better than Heeseung?"

Jaeyoon tilted his head as he compared Sunghoon and Heeseung in his head.

"Heeseung hyung is awesome, but Sunghoon is...."
