Changbin leads Felix to the back room of his club, a private space that few people have ever seen. Once they're inside, Changbin turns to Felix and asks, his voice low and serious, "Tell me what happened"

Felix sucked a lump in his throat as he spoke, "Sir, the two performers got hurt and Jisung suggested to go and perform, I didn't want you to get in trouble so I decided to join as well..."

Changbin's expression remains unreadable as Felix speaks, his eyes never leaving Felix's face. After a moment of silence, he speaks, his voice cold and calculated. "Jisung suggested you perform, and you just decided to join without asking me? You know the rules, Felix."

The boy's tears welled up in his eyes, threatening to fall as he heard his name being called, instead of the usual nicknames.

Changbin's voice hardens, his frustration evident "Look at me when I'm talking to you, Felix." His powerful presence demands attention, making it difficult for Felix to disobey. "And answer me, why would you make such a decision without consulting me first?"

Felix's voice was laced with apology, his words trembling as he spoke "I'm sorry sir, I did it because San and Wooyoung were hurt and I knew that they were going to open the show. everyone came to see them, it will look bad on your part if the show was canceled..."the apologetic boy eyes were watery, and he looked so small as he spoke, his voice barely above a whisper.

Changbin's expression softens slightly, but his voice remains firm "So, you thought you'd step in and save the day, without considering the consequences?" His intense gaze bore into Felix, making him shift uncomfortably. "You should have come to me first. I would have handled it."

Felix takes a deep breath before responding, his voice steady yet laced with concern."I'm ready to handle any consequences, but I don't want them to reach you."

Changbin's eyes narrow slightly at Felix's words, a hint of admiration creeping into his tone. "You're willing to take the blame and the consequences, just to protect me?" He pauses, studying Felix's face before speaking again. "That's loyalty, Felix. But it's also foolish."

"then I'm proud to be a foolish person..."Felix mumbled incoherently, his voice thick with unshed tears. He raised his hands to rub at his eyes, streaking them with dampness as he tried to dry them. His shoulders shook with a quiet sob, and he let out a soft sniffle, the sound echoing in the tense silence between them.

Changbin's expression softens, a hint of warmth entering his eyes. "You're... something else, Felix." He pauses, considering his next words. "I can't fault your loyalty, but you must promise me that you won't make decisions like that without consulting me first. Understood?"

Felix's eyes darted around the room, unable to settle on a single point. He felt a pang of guilt for not being able to meet Changbin's gaze, but the weight of his unspoken feelings was too heavy to bear. "I'm sorry,"
