Chap. 26

All your 17 years of living, you never felt so happy in your life before like this.

This morning, Key prepared you bacon and eggs. You were surprised too that he can cook very well.

Well. More than you can do though.

Although it was simple, you enjoyed the meal together with him. While he was cooking, you secretly took his picture with your newly Polaroid camera.

Seeing all of his candid pictures made you giggle. You decided to keep them in your album later.

All the time you spent with him, only laughters fill your day. Your birthday to be exact. And there was never a time when you can't feel Minho's presence. He's there.

You know he is.

After a lovely breakfast, Key took you to the park and he started to act childish like all the kids who played there. He even gestured you to come over to play the swings with him.

You shake your head rapidly as you know the swings are just for little kids. Like always, the Key you know wouldn't take no for an answer. And so, he went to you and pull you closer to the swings.

You couldn't count how many times you said no to him.

'Ah well. Why not? It's my birthday' as you thought to yourself.

You sat in one of the swings and started to sway a little. But from the corner of your eye, you saw Key swinging higher than you. Your eyes grew wider and not a minute later you found yourself started swinging higher as well.

Screaming like a lunatic, the parents who were watching their kids burst into a smile and some of them laughing slightly seeing the both of you.

The day was filled with fits of laughter with Key's jokes. You never knew that he is so funny. You heard a pop! and you know it was a message.

Clicking the message, it was from your mom.

From: Mom

Happy Birthday sweetie! I nearly forgot it's your birthday today. Anyways, your dad wish a very happy birthday but he was so busy he asked me to tell you. We'll come back in two day's time. Don't worry, we have your presents here 😉 take care sweetie, love you!

You smiled widely reading the text from your mom. Sighing inwardly, you text her back.

To: Mom

Thanks mom 😍😊 don't forget to bring my presents on your way home 😂 I miss you guys . Love you too ❤️

And.. Send.

"What's wrong, _____? You seem a little down" Key chimed.

You force a faux smile to hide your sadness. A gentle squeezing by Minho who was holding your hand made you relaxed a bit.

"I think you should apply for psychologist you know" you said, trying to change the subject.

"Why?"

"You're good at sensing someone's situation. Plus, you're very good with words and with that you can make them feel better" you stated.

Key wonders off for awhile, thinking about what you just said.

"Hm, never thought of that before. Besides, you know I'm into fashion so these kinds of things that you said didn't really..."

You give him a sincere smile and nod your head.

"I understand that"

"But when you say it like that, I kinda want to give it a try so, yeah" as he said that, a smile creep on his face.

"Wow, I wonder how you will look like wearing formal clothes, glasses up on your nose, giving your shoulder to cry on" you tease him a little.

"Don't worry, I have plenty of shirts for you to cry on later"

Then he smirked. Both of you looking at each other before bursting into fits of laughter.

You didn't realize that you and Key were in the park for almost a day. Acting like a child, Key pulled you into playing all of the things in the park. Sometimes, you and him played see-saw, stomping on the ground hard enough to give it more fun.

And sometimes, you take your time to take selfies with him with the Polaroid camera that you brought with you.

Most of the pictures were silly faces and cute pose.

All of the time you spent with him, you didn't realize there was someone watching you from afar.
