Flashback:

Heeseung was a 8 year old boy. His little sister Nari was 6 years a old and his older brother Hyuk was 15 years old.

Heeseung and Nari was playing outside. Hyuk was talking to one of his friends laughing and making jokes. The Mom was in the house making the lunch for them and Hyuk friends.

While Heeseung and Na-ri were playing with a bouncing ball.

Heeseung and Na-ri was laughing and giggling playing with the ball.

Heeseung and Na-ri passes the ball back in forth until the bouncing ball rolls into the street.

"I'll go get it Na-ri you stay here" Heeseung said with a smile. But Na-ri stops him whining and pouting and begin to say.

"No I'm big girl I'll do it" Na-ri said with a smile. Heeseung being the unaware kid nods smiling back at his sister letting his sister do it since he didn't want to upset her.

Na-ri steps in the street to grab the ball and looked at her brother Heeseung and smile.

"SEE HEESEUNG I TOLD YOU I CAN DO IT" Na-ri said with a yell.

"OK NA-RI COME BACK" Heeseung said smiling as he yelled.

Hyuk looked over for a sec and see Na-ri in the street his eyes grew as he saw a car coming full speed. Heeseung saw as well. One thing Heeseung and Hyuk did was yell out.

"NA-RI WATCH OUT" they yelled trying to run after her but was too late.

Na-ri turns where the car that was coming towards her full speed. The car then hits her with a big thud of her body laying down with blood traveling on the streets not stopping making a big pile of blood.

Heeseung and Hyuk was shock leaving tears pours out of their eyes going towards Na-ri. Hyuk screams out to his friends to go tell his mother.

Hyuk friends runs to go tell their Mom. The Mom  comes out with a heartbroken heart seeing her dead child lay down with full of blood. She runs towards Nari body crying trying to shake her to wake up.

Dad comes home pulling in his drive way getting out his car. Seeing that his family are crying and his daughter laying in the street with lost of blood and her dead on the ground. He shed tears of seeing his favorite daughter on the ground.

Till that day Dad blamed his wife and his sons from that accident.

Heeseung and Hyuk carried that trauma with them blaming themselves that it's their fault. And they wouldn't turned out as the family they had become.

Their Mom and little sister will still be alive if it wasn't for them they thought.

Flashback ended

Heeseung pov:

Heeseung wakes up from a tragic dream alone in his apartment. He starts panting, holding his chest while shaking and huffing underneath his breath.

To calm himself down, he takes big breaths many times until he calms down.

Heeseung steps out of bed and goes to the kitchen to make breakfast. Until he gets a phone call from Jay.

Heeseung widened his eyes. Why was Jay calling him this early Heeseung thought. Heeseung answers and tries to keep cool.

"Is there something wrong, Jay" Heeseung said. Jay cleared his throat and spoke.

"Uhh, you see," Jay said nervously on the phone call. Which makes Heeseung confused by the sudden change in Jay's voice.

Silence traveled the air until Jungwon couldn't handle the silence anymore and was brave enough to say something.

"We want to go on a date with you," Jungwon said. Jay was surprised. Heeseung couldn't believe his ears as he dropped the spatula after cooking eggs.

Heeseung wasn't sure if he heard that right because, from what he heard, the word we was announced, catching him totally off guard.

"Can you repeat that" Heeseung said it with a giddy smile. "D-a-t-e with you," Jungwon said, spelling out date with giggles leaving his mouth.

"We will pick you up at 3:16 pm; don't be late," Jay said, laughing at the two and hanging up.

Heeseung felt so giddy, which caused him to smile and slide down the sink counter,
holding his phone over his chest.

He couldn't believe this was happening to him. His two crushes asked him on the date. Wait, does that mean they like him? Was this what Jake meant? Tomorrow will be his lucky day.

He shook his head and thought, No, it can't be. To him, it was a friendly date.

Heeseung felt so stupid to feel so happy while being delusional and thinking he had a chance.

Heeseung finished what he was doing and started eating his breakfast by himself.

He also realized that his therapist would be calling him in a minute. Once the phone rings for his therapist, he answers.

"Hi there, Heeseung, how did you start off the day" the therapist said. Heeseung smiled at her, happy that she called.

"I started making me breakfast, and suddenly I received a call from my two crushes that wanted to go on the date. "Well, at least I thought it that way," Heeseung said as his smile dropped.

"Why do you say that" the therapist said. "Because I think it's a friendly date," Heeseung said with a sigh. "Well, Heeseung, how did they say it to you?" the therapist said.

"They said we want to go on a date with you," Heeseung said. The therapist blinked more than once. "Heeseung, sweetie, let's not overthink; okay, let's find out for yourself when you go," the therapist said with a smile.

"And afterwards, tell me what happened, and I will be happy to listen and hear how you feel," the therapist said with a smile. Heeseung nodded and smiled back.

"You got this, sweetheart. It's time for me to go now. Remember to find out. Don't overthink it yet," the therapist said as she smiled and waved, hoping things would turn out well.

This was also the opportunity for Heeseung to find happiness and someone who could take care of his anxiety from trauma.

She wishes the best for him because she doesn't want him to suffer trying to make his friends happy but not himself.

Heeseung nodded once again with a smile and waved goodbye as well, then proceeded to hang up.
