In the early morning, Hyunjin rolled out of bed and went out on his daily jog. He didn't dress up much, thinking that no one would catch sight of him. So, he tied his hair in a ponytail and put on his sports fit on his way. He went out barefaced, which wasn't something unusual for Hyunjin. His beauty outshined everyone else's no matter what he decided to put on.

The sweet smell of vanilla filled the streets of the park nearby as Hyunjin ran in the area. His bangs flapped perfectly against his forehead as a tint of glossy sweat traveled down his neck. Upon feeling hot, Hyunjin rolled up the sleeves of his jacket and continued his jog though he spotted a few people following him on the way. Unsure if it was just his imagination or a stranger "in love" he decided to shrug it off.

He continued on for a few miles before taking a seat at one of the benches he spotted along the way. Hyunjin then reached out for his bag, from where he took out a bottle of water he had prepared earlier. Once he took a few sips out of it, he heard the sound of a camera flick. Hyunjin furrowed his eyebrows and tried looking around to find the direction from which it came from.

He grew annoyed at this sudden feeling of paranoia, so he angrily shook his head. Now looking down at his feet with the water bottle in hand.

"Hyun?" He heard a person call out for him from his right

Hyunjin lifted his head, spotting Felix standing above him. He immediately forgot what he was angry about and smiled up at Felix, gesturing him to sit down next to him.

"What are you doing here?" Felix asked

"I was out for my daily jog."

"You have your dailies...?"

Hyunjin looked over Felix's direction, "You didn't know?"

Felix shook his head.

"Well, I have them every morning. I usually go out at 8 am and come back home around 9."

"You're always productive, I'm jealous. Don't you ever have moments in which you're lazy?" Felix asked

"Hm... There were times."

"Oh really, when?"

"Hiring new employees, it's too stressful."

"That's not being lazy." Felix rolled his eyes jokingly

"Damn. I really am a workaholic." Hyunjin chuckled

"I prefer you that way, it's hot." Felix said, giving Hyunjin one of his innocent smiles

"How can you say something so out of pocket and then smile like that?" Hyunjin laughed

"Good question." Felix laughed as well

And then, another camera flick.

"What the fuck?" Hyunjin exclaimed

"You heard it too?" Felix questioned

"I've been hearing it all morning, I thought it was just my paranoia. But no way can it be paranoia for two people, can it?" Hyunjin groaned

"Maybe we should get out of here?" Felix said, grabbing Hyunjin by hand as he began to run

Two camera flicks were left unheard by the two of them.

Inside Hyunjins room.

Hyunjin plopped onto his bed, hitting the mattress with his back as he looked up at the ceiling. "Why does this keep happening all the time?! Can't I have some privacy God damn it!"

"Look, Hyun. I think you need to calm down." Felix said, sitting next to Hyunjin

"How can I calm down? I'm being either photographed or followed no matter where I go. Might as well take a picture of me while I'm in the shower while they're at it. Obsessed idiots."
