Cold Hands, Warm Heart ✧ Minsung ✧

Jisung's mind was filled with doubts.

After his conversation with Felix, he found it unbearable to face the younger man. He called in sick for the week and spent his days at Stay Coffee, somehow his whole body and mind was lost just wanting to find his answers in that place.

But his thoughts were consumed by the blocked contact on his phone. Should he press the button and reach out to Minho? Was he ready to hear what he might have to say? Did Minho truly want to be with him? Jisung was lost in a sea of doubts and it was tearing him apart.

As he sat in the coffee shop, he held a white card with a phone number written on it tightly in his hands. He couldn't bring himself to make a decision and the weight of his indecision was crushing him.

-

Felix went to work and he was not surprised when he found out that Hongjoong was there covering for Jisung all week." Oh, he is sick?"

"Yeah, the boss called me. We'll be partners for this week!" Hongjoong said excitedly, happy to be working with his younger colleague.

Felix smiled weakly. "Yeah, cool," he said, and went to change into his uniform.

Throughout the day, Hongjoong noticed that Felix was not in the mood and he became concerned. He noticed as the younger had been staring at his phone all week with a worried face and heavy sighs, debating whether or not he should contact someone.

The elder coworker tried to lift the mood, bringing Felix his favorite brownies the following day to try to make him happy. He is not the type who talks things with anyone, Hongjoong sensed that something was wrong with both Felix and Jisung, and although he didn't push them to talk, he was there to support them.

"Wow! Thank you, Joong," Felix said, smiling with his eyes like crescent moons.

Hongjoong's smile grew sweeter. "It's good to see you smiling again."

"Oh" Felix's smile faltered. "I'm sorry... I'm not in the best mood, sorry to burden you. And we were working together this week..."

"Hey, I just want to see you happy, like the sunshine you've always been to everyone," Hongjoong replied.

"Hey, I just want to see you happy, like the sunshine you've always been to everyone"

"Thanks," Felix said appreciatively.

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening caught their attention. "Hello," someone said.

"Hi," Felix greeted Seonghwa, who had come to the coffee shop.

"Hi, baby!" Hongjoong greeted his boyfriend with a hug, and Seonghwa leaned in for a kiss, making his boyfriend blush.

"We're closing the store. We'll be ready in five, right Felix?" Hongjoong nervously let go and went to clean the coffee shop quickly.

"Yes!" Felix laughed, feeling grateful for his supportive coworkers.

As they drove, Seonghwa and Hongjoong continued to chat, leaving Felix to his thoughts. But after a while, Seonghwa turned to him and asked, "Hey Felix, do you want to talk about it?" Hongjoong gave him a killer glare "what?" He mouthed to Hongjoong in silence.

"Talk about what?" Felix asked, pretending to be clueless.

"Ohhh, we know something's been bothering you. And if you want to talk about it, we're here to listen." Seonghwa said gently.
