"As if it's on my palm,
I controlled my universe;
Even people's minds
Seemed so obvious, yeah,"

The first night of the festival drew on, and fortunately, after the short rain that happened in the morning, no other inconveniences happened.

Finally, all the students were spread out on the school field, and while Zenith was performing on the stage infront, basically almost everyone else was busy with their own things.

Namely, Heejin, who stood just right next to the field entrance, was busy handing out information fliers to the students entering the venue. As the school council's P.I.O., of course, it was always her job to help students with the information they needed to go around the school. So, as much as she hated just standing at the entrance and handing out fliers, she had to do it. Besides, who else is gonna do it if not her?

Out of nowhere, a male student suddenly runs past her, bumping into her shoulder and causing her to drop her fliers.

"Hey, you-" Heejin tries to shout after the student, but she had only taken a second to react when the student had already disappeared from sight. "Ugh," Heejin ends up groaning to herself as she squats down to pick up the fallen fliers.

And then, a hand appears beside hers, picking up the fliers just as she is doing the same. Heejin's brows rise, and she looks up to see Taehyun kneeled down and his eyes on the ground. A look of surprise forms on her face next, but eventually, she continues picking up the fliers.

"You're late. Aren't you supposed to be performing with Zenith right now?" Heejin asks the boy as she keeps her eyes focused on the ground.

"Well... not really?" Taehyun replies. "Heeseung said I could come later, though, as long as I come on time. He gave me a schedule, too." They finish picking up the fliers, and after standing up, Taehyun hands Heejin those he had picked up. "So... this is what you do during school festivals?"

Heejin shrugs. "Yeah, pretty much. It sucks, but at least I'm not the one making the fliers. That would be the journalism club." She then turns to the stage, and speaks as her eyes wander towards the band performing. "It's also just a one time thing, anyway. As soon as I'm finished, I'm free to roam. You, however," she turns to Taehyun, and a playful nudge comes his way as she smiles at him, "Did Heeseung tell you you'd be performing constantly throughout the festival?"

Taehyun's brows rise, indicating that he is clueless to that information, and Heejin sighs in response.

"Yeah, I guessed so. Heeseung almost always doesn't reveal everything to avoid questions," Heejin states, before her expression shifts as she continues, "or he probably didn't plan to make you perform all through out the festival. You should ask him as soon as you get to the stage."

Taehyun hums in response, before he looks towards the stage as well. There, he makes eye contact with Kai, the drummer, and with that, the latter waves at him enthusiastically.

"You should probably be going now," Heejin speaks, making the boy turn back to her again.

"O-oh, yeah..." Taehyun responds quietly as he takes a step towards the stage. Not long after that, however, he stops. And Heejin looks at him curiously.

"Hmm?"

Taehyun turns back to her, and to Heejin's surprise, he smiles and points at his cheek. Her eyes widen, and the boy chuckles before he speaks. "Just one. Just like you always do."
