Felix POV-

Felix's alarm blared, rudely interrupting the peaceful silence of his room. He fumbled to silence it, the blaring sound cutting through the haze of sleep. With a groan, he rolled out of bed, feeling the familiar heaviness of morning tiredness.

The sun peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. Felix stretched and shuffled towards the bathroom. The cool splash of water on his face helped shake off the last remnants of sleep, and he started his day with his usual routine—showering, dressing in his favorite jeans and hoodie, and heading downstairs.

In the kitchen, his sister Rachel was already seated at the breakfast table, her long brown hair pulled into a casual ponytail. She was engrossed in her phone, scrolling through social media while nibbling on a slice of toast.

"Morning, Felix!" Rachel called out cheerfully as he entered. 

"Good morning," Felix replied with a yawn, eyes barely open. 

Rachel laughed, shaking her head. "You should really set you're alarm earlier."Felix grabbed a bowl of cereal while shrugging and joined Rachel at the table. 

After breakfast, Felix grabbed his backpack and keys, giving Rachel a quick hug before heading out the door. The crisp morning air was refreshing as he walked across campus, the familiar sight of students hurrying to their classes and the low hum of conversation filling the air.

His first class was a lecture on modern literature. The professor, Dr. Choi, was known for his engaging lectures, and today's topic was particularly intriguing: the evolution of narrative techniques. Felix listened intently, taking notes and participating in the discussion. He enjoyed these moments of intellectual stimulation, finding solace in the predictability of his academic routine.

The class ended, and Felix met up with his friends  Jisung, Seungmin, and Jeongin at the campus cafe. The cafe was full of activity, with students gathered around tables, discussing their classes or simply catching up. Felix and his friends found a large table near the window, their usual spot.

"Hey, Felix!" Olivia his little sister who was previously at the friends house, greeted him with a warm smile. "How's your day going so far?"

"Pretty good," Felix replied as he sat down. "Just finished a lecture on the art of music. It was actually quite interesting."

The conversation flowed easily as they chatted about their classes, upcoming assignments, and weekend plans. Jisung and Seungmin were planning a movie night, while Jeongin had just started a new part-time job and was sharing some amusing gossip from his first few days.

After lunch, Felix headed to the library for a study session. The library was quiet, and he found a cozy corner where he could focus on his assignments. Hours slipped by as he worked diligently, the rhythm of his typing providing a comforting background noise.

As the sun began to set, Felix packed up his things and headed back to his apartment. The familiar routine of his evening awaited him: dinner, a bit of relaxation, and preparing for the next day. Rachel was out for the evening and Olivia was at another sleep over with some friends, so Felix had the apartment to himself.

He made a simple dinner and settled down on the couch with a book. The quiet of the apartment was soothing, and he found solace in the calm after a busy day. As he read, he couldn't help but reflect on how smoothly everything was going. Life was predictable, but in a comforting way, but sometimes he wished for a more exiting life.

When it was time for bed, Felix turned off the lights and crawled under the covers, feeling the day's weariness catch up with him. He drifted off to sleep, content with the normalcy of his life, unaware that his routine was about to be disrupted.
