'subtle charmer'

As the clock struck midnight, Minho's phone buzzed with a flurry of incoming messages, each one a birthday wish from friends and family.

A video call came in and he immediately attended it.

"Hi Min, happy birthday!" his mom said facing a little trouble keeping the phone upside.

"Thanks, Mom" Minho smiled.

"Happy birthday son," Minho's father said helping his wife with the phone.

"Have you found someone yet, I'm concerned you're missing out on college life" his mother teased.

"Mom I like someone who may or may not like me back but he is so cute." Minho replied.

"See I won, we are going to Sweden" Minho's father said delightedly.

"Excuse me?" Minho said confused.

"Your father and I placed a bet whether you would date a boy or girl this year," his mom said a little embarrassed.

"Yahhhhhhhh how sweet of you Mom and you too Dad," Minho said sarcastically.

"Anyways, tell us if you need more funds for you're party," Mr. lee said.

"You've already sent more than enough Dad"

"Just let me know if you need, btw we have to head to sleep we both aren't as active as you young people" Mr . Lee said as Mrs. lee yawned in the background a bit.

"Love you" Minho said just barely audible.

Mrs. Lee just smiled softly. "We love you too min, have a good night"

And the call ended.

He looked at messages with a smile on his face, he eagerly began replying to each one, thanking them for their well-wishes and feeling grateful for the love and support surrounding him on his special day.

But as he scrolled through his messages, one particular text caught his eye—an unknown number. His eyes furrowed immediately his number was extremely private and it made her uncomfortable.

Unknown number

Happiest birthday Minho!

Thanks! Who is this???

Seconds passed like hours as Minho waited anxiously for a reply,

Oh sorry, it's Han jisung

I took your number from felix

hannie <3

It's okay and thanks once again

Have a good night hyung ^^

Good night Han.

His eyes lit up with excitement as he ran to the other bedroom in their apartment.

"Hyunjin, wake up!" Minho exclaimed, shaking his roommate gently as he waved his phone in the air. "You won't believe it—I got a birthday text from Han!"

Hyunjin groaned sleepily, rubbing his eyes as he sat up in bed. "Han? Really?".

"Yeah, look!" Minho exclaimed, thrusting his phone towards Hyunjin. "He wished me a happy birthday"

Watching Minho's eyes light up with joy at Han's text had warmed Hyunjin's heart.

"Hey, Minho, Happy birthday"
