Asteriê | Lee Felix [✓]

005

The next day, Felix didn't talk much, somehow it made me feel uncomfortable. Sure, he is loud and annoying as hell, but him being quite is not better at all.

I tried to act as if i don't get affected by his action, but i couldn't pay any attention to the class. I was thinking about the way to talk to him, to clear things.

The bell rang, it was lunch time. I'm not in the mood to eat so i ran to the rooftop instead. I stared at the empty bright sky, and suddennly my mother's words came back to me

"...there's something that holds you from being happy"

Is it because of Felix? Why him?

Suddenly the door behind me opened, revealing Jisung with a box of orange juice in his hand

"Oh hey, didn't know you would be up here.. Alone?" he said

"Well, maybe i just needed sometime on my own" i smiled

"Something's bothering you aye? I know we just met yesterday but, you know, you cant talk if you want"

Silence

"Ahh, it's okay you don't have to-"

"Would you believe me if i told you my story?" i cut him off

"Well yeah, as long as your story didn't contain any aliens taking over the universe riding their unicorns" i chuckled at his words

"No, you crackhead" i paused, "Do you believe in myth?"

"Yeah, some of them"

"You know Asteria? She's the star nymph"

"Like the guardians of the star?"

"Well, yeah, sort of, she's the daughter of the sun-god Helios and a water nymph, it made her to be a nymph too, but because of her father, she became a star nymph instead of a water nymph" i took a breath, anticipating his reaction

"I-i'm the descendant of Asteria"

"W-wait? What?" his eyes were as big as a golf ball, i swear it could come off any second "What's with that face? Haha, careful, you don't want to lose your eyes" i hit his arms

"Woah, i mean, that's awesome, you're like the guardian of the stars, do you have any super powers?" he's being giddy, just like a little kid

"No, not super powers, but every night the star will show my feeling"

"THAT'S AWESOME! Did Hyunjin got that too? What could be bad about it?"

"No, Hyunjin is a male, he didn't inherited the nymph gene, and the bad thing is ..."

"... It's hard for us to fall in love"

...

After the school ends, i went to Stray Kids's dance studio. I can't find Hyunjin, Jisung, nor Changbin so i decided to walk there on my own.

No one has arrived there yet, it's been a long time since the last time i danced. I use to do ballet and contemporary dance, the nymph-genes really help me in dancing.

I turned the music player on and start to dance. Nobody's watching, one quick-dace wouldn't hurt anyone right? I let my body move to the rhythm, It feels like i can finally forget about my problems for a while.

Just as i finished my dance, a boy stood in front of the door clapping his hands, trying to keep his face straight but his eyes showed awe

"You should dance more, it's beautiful"
