In a cozy neighborhood under the shade of tall trees, Beomgyu's small steps brought him closer to where Yeonjun played with a soccer ball. Yeonjun, busy with his game, didn't notice the little four-year-old approaching until Beomgyu stood right in front of him, holding out a delicate daisy.

Yeonjun's surprise turned into a big smile as he knelt down to meet Beomgyu's gaze. "Wow, a flower for me?" he exclaimed softly, taking the gift gently and placing it behind his ear. The bright petals stood out against his dark hair.

Beomgyu giggled with joy, his laughter filling the air like a bubbling brook. "You look like a prince now!" he exclaimed happily, admiring his gift.

Yeonjun chuckled, touched by Beomgyu's innocent gesture. "Thank you, little buddy," he replied warmly, patting Beomgyu's head gently. "You've made me a flower prince."

They shared a precious moment under the gentle sunlight, the soccer ball momentarily forgotten as they exchanged smiles that hinted at the beginning of a special friendship.

In the quiet sanctuary of the school library, Beomgyu sat with furrowed brows, his pencil poised over a math worksheet that seemed more daunting than usual. Sensing his friend's frustration, Yeonjun quietly set aside his own book and slid over to Beomgyu's side.

"What's giving you trouble, Gyu?" Yeonjun asked in a soft voice, his eyes scanning the numbers and equations on the page.

Beomgyu sighed, pushing the paper towards Yeonjun. "It's this multiplication problem. I keep getting stuck."

Yeonjun leaned closer, his presence reassuring as he studied the problem. With a gentle smile, he pointed to the key steps. "Look, you just multiply these two numbers here. Let me show you."

As Yeonjun patiently walked Beomgyu through the steps, his explanations were clear and concise, breaking down the problem into manageable parts. Beomgyu listened intently, nodding as understanding dawned on his face.

"You're the best at this, Junie," Beomgyu said gratefully, his eyes bright with newfound clarity. "Thanks for helping me." Showing his gratitude by kissing his hyungs cheek.

Yeonjun tousled Beomgyu's hair affectionately. "Anytime, Gyu. We're in this together, remember? Friends help each other out."

On the morning of Yeonjun's eighth birthday, Beomgyu woke up with a sense of eager anticipation. He had been looking forward to this day for weeks, excited to surprise his best friend with a special gift. Armed with a homemade card adorned with glitter and stickers, and a bag of Yeonjun's favorite chocolates, Beomgyu headed to Yeonjun's house, where colorful decorations adorned the yard, setting a festive mood.

Mrs. Choi, Yeonjun's mother, greeted Beomgyu warmly at the door. "Good morning, Beomgyu! Yeonjun has been waiting for you," she said with a smile, accepting the card and chocolates from him.

"Happy birthday to Yeonjun!" Beomgyu exclaimed with a shy grin.

"Thank you, Beomgyu. Yeonjun will love your gifts. He's playing with his friends in the backyard," Mrs. Choi replied kindly, leading Beomgyu through the house to where the laughter of children could be heard.

Yeonjun turned around at the sound of footsteps, his face lighting up at the sight of Beomgyu. "Gyu!" he exclaimed happily. "You're here!"

Beomgyu proudly presented his gifts. "Happy birthday, Junie!" he said, handing over the card and chocolates.
