The sun shone brightly on Sunday morning, creating a sweet atmosphere in Jisung's bedroom and waking him up early. Upon checking the time on his phone, he began to watch random videos, stumbling upon a cat video where an orange cat pats its owner's face to wake them up. 'I wonder if Doongie does this kind of stuff', he chuckled, '...maybe Minho wakes them up first by doing this to them'. He laughed again at his thoughts and sent the funny video to Minho, 'looks like Doongie, they are so cute' he messaged him.

He put the phone aside and stared at the ceiling, remembering last night with Felix, and that got him worried about the younger who left the bar early. He decided he could try to be more with him, since they haven't hung out outside work and that's probably what Felix missed and wanted the other day. He reached for his phone and started to type.

"Hi, Felix! How are you feeling today? Do you want to hang out with me at that new park MIROH?"

Meanwhile, Felix woke up with a sour feeling in his throat and a heavy head. When Jisung's message came in, he was so happy to read such text from Jisung first thing in the morning, but next second he couldn't be happy, his heart sank at the thought that Jisung didn't like him in the same way he did 'he just want to hang out as friends... we are'. He closed his eyes and put his phone aside, then he decided to wash himself first to get his thoughts right. When he opened the bedroom door to go to the bathroom, Chan opened his door at the same time and they shared a look.

"Chan..." Felix saw him, dressed up in fancy clothes and wearing makeup, aparently leaving home early. He felt a twinge of jealousy and sadness as he realized that the situation between him and Chan was still weird 'where is he going so early?'.

Chan looked at him, froze for a second and looked down immediately "hi, Felix" he said walking past him.

"You're leaving..." Felix followed him with his eyes, almost whispering these words "...early".

Chan didn't bother to look at him, he just nodded and walked to the exit door looking down "see you later".

And like this he left. Being alone one more time, he hated it. Felix sighed and messaged Jisung.

"Ji, what time do you want to meet?"

-

Later that day, Felix went to the new park MIROH and waited for Jisung. A few minutes later, Jisung arrived and opened a huge smile when he saw Felix. He rushed to hug him, like Felix always does to him "hi, Felix!". He hoped to bring some happiness to the younger.

But Felix hesitated but hug back. Jisung backed up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Felix replied, "I'm fine, I just didn't expect a hug from you."

Jisung said, "I thought you needed to have some fun, that's why I suggested we come here."

'So is that, he saw that I wasn't okay and is trying to make me feel better' Felix blushed and said a muffled "thank you", he thanked him, realizing that Jisung was trying to cheer him up.

"So, mmh, where do you wanna go?" Felix said backing up, not quite understanding where that attitude was coming from.

"Mmh, I didn't think that far..." Jisung brought his fingers to his mouth thinking.

Jisung was trying his best to cheer up his friend, he grabbed his hand and they entered the park. He felt that the boy was opening little by little as they went to visit a lot of different toys, he could see Felix smiles and being happy.

At the end of the day, they were both tired but happy. They stopped at a bubble tea shop inside the park, and Felix ordered strawberry flavor while Jisung ordered chocolate flavor. They went to a nearby table to wait for their drinks to arrive.

After spending the whole day together, Felix and Jisung couldn't talk much while going from one toy to another. Felix was happy to spend the day with Jisung, but he couldn't shake off the thoughts in his head. He was dying to know about Jisung's feelings, he was dying drowned by his own feelings, he wanted to know Jisung's feelings for him but was afraid to ask.

Meanwhile, Jisung checked his phone, hoping for a message from Minho. 'Delivered but not seen... weird, what is he doing? Maybe he is working today as well, yeah'. Jisung raised his head and noticed a very quiet Felix "hey, are you feeling okay?" he looked at him worried.

"Ahn, mmh..." Felix can't disguise his own feelings, but he tries to smile "ah, it's nothing" "So... mmh... have you talked to him?" He asked, motioning the phone.

"Him?" Jisung blinked a few times, confused as he looked at his phone.

"Minho" Felix looked at the paper in his hands as he was folding and unfolding it.

"Aah, no, I haven't met him yet..." Jisung said, becoming nervous putting his phone back in his pocket "...but I'm really nervous, because when I think about him, he's good at so many things, he's smart, he helps me and never asks for anything in return, he has such a kind heart and he is so handsome like a prince." He laid down his head on the table defeated. "And, now I'm starting to think that I'm not good enough for him, maybe he won't like someone like me." He sighed 'maybe he would like someone like his ex'.

"Ji," Felix grabbed Jisung's hands "...you are the kindest person I know, you are so good at writing lyrics, rapping, singing, and even dancing, plus you're very handsome. There's no way he won't like you" Felix smiled at him and his heart started to beat faster than ever "I-..." He gulped and continued "you're friends you said, so, whatever you say, everything is going to be alright" he nodded "and I will always be here for you, for whatever you need, okay?". And it was at that point that he decided to back up, he could see how Jisung admires and adores Minho, so he decided that he will always cheer up for his friend, wishing all the best he could from all the love he had for him.

Jisung was speechless hearing those kind words from Felix, his cheeks tinted in a shade of pink, then suddenly they heard a call for "order 325!". They looked down at Felix's paper and said in unison "it's us!". They stood up and went to get their bubble tea.

As they were leaving the shop, Jisung suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd. "Minho?" he exclaimed in surprise.

Minho turned his head at the sound of his name. "Jisung?" he said, sounding equally surprised.

Jisung waved at him. "Hey!"

Felix also greeted him with a simple "hi."

"What are you do-," Jisung began to say, but he was interrupted by a girl who approached Minho and grabbed his arm.

"Hey, I'm back, there's such a long queue to go to the bathroom." She said, smiling at Minho as they're all looking at her. She then looked at Jisung and Felix and asked, "Who are they?"

Minho introduced them. "Oh, Yejin, they are my friends Jisung and Felix."

Jisung gulped 'the girl from the coffee shop that day', 'Yejin, his ex'. He felt a lump form in his throat. "Nice to meet you," he managed to say, trying to sound polite. "I'm Jisung."

Felix also greeted her politely. "Hi, I'm Felix."

Yejin smiled at them. "I'm Minho's girlfriend," she said, waving at them.

Jisung's heart sank as he heard those words. "Okay, we gotta go now. Bye," he said abruptly and quickly left the shop, with Felix following closely behind him.
