Before Hyejin could get down, Felix started running. She had never seen someone this dedicated to a game of tag. Before she knew it, she was holding her breath. Why am I acting so different these days... it's just Felix. It's not like I l- Hyejin smacked her head. What am I even thinking? Felix already stopped running and saw her slap her head. Seungmin was no longer behind them.
He pushed his hair back. "I have so many questions... but I'm not gonna question that."

Hyejin's face flushed red. "Okay." Hyejin got off and started walking ahead of him, limping a few times.
Felix saw Changbin from the corner of his eye. "Felix. Can I talk to you?" Felix glanced at Hyejin, who was pretty far ahead now.
"What is it,"
"My sister is planning to confess on her birthday."
Felix looked on the ground. "I'm not gonna do it anymore."
Changbin looked directly at his eye. "What do you mean?"
"I'm not going to make her like me or anything like that."
"What? She doesn't like you?"
Felix shrugged. "I just don't want to do this."
"You.. you couldn't have possibly fell for her?" Changbin looked at Felix and Felix didn't say a word. Changbin started laughing. "Lee Felix. You've changed."
"I never said I liked her." Felix said back.
Changbin had a serious face back on. "Why don't you want to do this? It's so easy."
"I don't care about getting revenge on Woojin. I don't care about Chaeyeon, either. I'll deal with it myself. Just stop getting everyone involved."
"I will leave, then. I'll leave the group. I'll leave Stray Kids. I never wanted to do this but you left me with no choice. If one person leaves, the whole group will fall apart." Felix glowered at him. "Before her birthday." Changbin said, and left Felix by himself.

Hyejin heard running and loud footsteps. Felix? She felt a smack on her shoulder. "You're it." Seungmin smirked. His target was me. "Stay away from us, please." He whispered in her ear. "Our group is falling apart because of certain people." Hyejin looked at him; his eyes were dull and sad, like he was tired of everything.
"Seungmin! Did you get anyone?" Hyunjin called. Seungmin moved, so Hyunjin could see Hyejin.
