Jisung: Oh my gosh, we're finally done! Our shift is over~

Felix: That's a relief, I was getting so tired.

Jisung: Don't worry, there's usually not this many people here. For some reason, today's just crowded.

Felix: Oh, alright. I'll see you tomorrow!

Jisung: Wait, let's exchange phone numbers.

Felix: Sure!

I hand him my phone and he adds his contact.

He hands it back to me with a smile.

Jisung: Bye Lixie!

I wave to him and head back home.

Mom: Felix, how was the job? Did everything go well?

Felix: Yup, I'm getting my pay at the end of the week.

Mom: Oh, how much?

Felix: Well... definitely not enough to pay for the surgery.

Mom: Felix, I told you not to worry about that. I'll figure something out, alright? You go sleep for now.

Felix: Ok, goodnight~

I go to my room and lay down on the bed.

As soon as I close my eyes and open them seconds later, I'm met with the beautiful forest.

I look and sigh when I see that Changbin isn't here.

It's normal though, I always come here first.

I walk over to a large rock and sit on it, the spot I usually wait for Changbin at.

Changbin...

When I say his name, or if I even think about him, butterflies form in my stomach.

I'm not dumb, I know what that means.

Actually, I am dumb- for liking someone who doesn't exist.

If this is all in my head, maybe I can just get rid of him by pushing him out of my thoughts?

Getting rid of him will also get rid of my feelings.

Hopefully.

I close my eyes and try to think about anything other than Changbin.

Food... pizza...

Changbin's head is shaped kind of like pizza...

Homework... school...

I wish Changbin went to my school...

Water... milk...

If I drank more milk when I was younger, would I be as tall as Changbin?

Ugh, this isn't working...

Speaking of working, does Changbin work out? His biceps are huge...

Felix: Oh my gosh, I need to stop.

?: Stop what?

I turn around and see Changbin standing, with his hands in his pockets.

Felix: Nothing, I was just... thinking out loud...

Changbin: That's cute. Anyway, come over here. I have something to ask you.

...

DID HE JUST CALL ME CUTE?!

No- he called my thinking out loud cute.

But I was the one doing it.

But that doesn't mean he was talking about me-

Changbin: Lix, are you okay? You're spacing out.

Felix: Huh? Yeah, I'm okay. Sorry, what were you saying?

Changbin: Why did you peck my cheek before I left yesterday?

Oh shit.

I was so into thinking about how to stop liking Changbin that I completely forgot about doing that.

What am I going to say to him now?
