"Do you think he will ever accept you who is lacking a lot of things?", One of the actor on stage said, folding his arm and raising one eyebrow. It was a play everyone had interested on because of the casts. Not only good looking but they had nice voices. So, no matter how boring the play was, everyone still focused on them.

"How foolish of you! Of course, I would still accept her the at she is but how can you as a father not accept her?!", Another actor came in, his brows creased and his hand balled into fists. It was a simple play about a young rich man who fell in love with a young bakery owner who had hearing disability. Their relationship was not approved by the young lady's father who treated her no better than a child beggar.

"I think I'm going to fall asleep", Hyunjin said, yawning beside Jisung who agreed with him. They came to the festival and the first thing they did was to check the theater club. They didn't know it was going to be so...not amusing.

—sniff.

The both of them turned their head , Jeongin was crying while watching the play and Felix's eyes were watering. The both of them were hugging Seungmin's arms who was sitting in between them.

Hyunjin and Jisung looked at each other, "they're crying?", This boring play was making them cry?!

Seungmin moved his head and sighed. "If you guys want to go just go", he could keep two child in control and the both of them could go on a date. The both of them nodded, thanking Seungmin who was truly my to appease Jeongin's anger towards the father in the play.

"But..", Seungmin's stern voice made the two of them sat back. "The both of you better tell us because it's not fun being kept in dark", Seungmin was hinting at their relationship. Jisung hummed, pointing at the exit, "we can leave now?"

With Seungmin agreement, the both of them leave the play. They both sighed as soon as they exit the hall. "That was terrifically boring!", Jisung said, pulling Hyunjin to a picture booth where Donghyuck was giving free photographs for couples.

"Jisung! Hyunjin!", He waved at them.

"Do you guys want pictures?", Jisung smiled, taking Hyunjin's hands. "But it will be free right?"

Donghyuck frowned. "How can it be free? It's only free for couples-", he stopped talking when he saw Hyunjin's and Jisung's entangled hands. He gasped and looked up, anticipating for any of them to say anything about it. He pointed at the both of them and Hyunjin wasn't sure if he should say it. He didn't want Jisung to be uncomfortable.

Jisung pulled their hands up and smiled, "we're dating",  Hyunjin's eyebrows twitched. Jisung just told Donghyuck proudly about it. Donghyuck clapped his hands, "I knew it. I thought if you guys don't get together, the world would crumble.", He exaggerated. Hyunjin and Jisung had been together for a long time, it was natural for them to be together in the end.

Donghyuck waved at them to enter the big picture frame. "It's free. It's free", he repeated, excited to take a picture of the new couple.

The picture turned out good. Each of them kept one picture. "Right, can you guys come to the hall at 3?"

"Why?", The play should end in a few minutes, they had arranged another activity at the hall... though, they weren't informed of what it was.

"There's going to be a game station there. You can get prizes if you win", It was a Festival after all. Which festival doesn't have games?

Jisung and Hyunjin walked hand in hand around the campus. There was a small concert, many bands they didn't know performed. They were probably the campus bands.

Jisung's POV

He held my hand but he refused to look at me in the eyes. I started to wonder if he really was satisfied with just this. Didn't he want me to return his feeling. I was quite certain about it but he seemed to be an idiot who wouldn't realize my feeling.

Was this karma? For what I did to him?

Even if it was like that! This wasn't right!

He was more invested into the band who was performing rather than me. I looked up at the stage and observed each band member. Some of them was good looking but it didn't mean he can look at them like that.

I pinched his waist, "why did you do that?", He asked, rubbing his waist. How dare he ask me that. "I don't like you looking at them"

"Why?", Did he ask me because he was clueless or was he just dumb?

I pointed at myself, "I'm here aren't I?",  I'm saying, you should look at me if you're on a date with me.

Wait, this wasn't right either. I sounded like a...jealous person. "Are you...", I turned around "I'm not!"  At this rate we will be late for the game at the hall.

I moved forward and Hyunjin followed after me. He voluntarily held my hand unlike previously I was the one who asked him. I didn't even try to hide my flushed face, I knew even if he saw it he will be dumb enough to say it's because of the weather.

We final arrived at the game hall. There was many Mini games around the hall but there was a small event in the middle of the hall which attracted my attention.

That damned Donghyuck, he told us to come here because they were holding a couple only event. "Ok! Everyone come here! Any couple or friends can join our game today!"  But...it was exciting.

"You want to join?", Hyunjin noticed my enthusiasm and asked me to join. Well, I was excited but not enough for me to join it but his eyes told me he really wanted to join it. "Fine".

A date was a date. Now that we're here and our friends weren't here, what was the point of not having fun on a date, right? I held his hand tightly and dragged him to the middle of the room.

"The winner will get a camera and a pair of couple shirts!"

"The first game is!! Couple poses!", What kind of bullshit? "The pose doesn't matter but one person must not touch the floor for 1 minute! After one minute end, the one carrying must stand on one foot until 5 couples are left!"

I looked at Hyunjin. I refused to be the one carried. Over my dead body will I let him carry me. Even if he was taller than me, I refuse!

"Jisung if you carry me... isn't that a bit", I refuse!

"Why?! Is it weird?! I'm a man too!"

-

I regretted saying that after 1 minute ended. Why didn't I think that he could just carry me on his back like I'm doing now instead of doing carry in bridal style.

I have to stay on one foot until someone other than us fall with him on my back, this heavy brat wouldn't stop breathing against my ear. How was I supposed to focus on the strength on my foot?

Some other couples already started crumbling beside me. Can't they fall early? I'm dying here and I want the prizes. The camera sounded really tempting!

The host finally blew the whistle, I survived!

He climbed down from my back and laughed at me. "Are you fine?", I slapped his hand away. "I'm fine!"

"Are you sure? Because you're sweating-"

" I'm fine!", I said sternly one more time. I'm not fine actually. I stood for 5 minutes with him on my back, I'm not fine!

"They're starting the next game. Stop asking me useless questions", I tugged his shirt and waited for the host to say the next game.
