The weather outside was freezing.

That was the first thing Felix noticed when he checked the weather that morning. He frowns but got out of bed to get ready for school. He walked over to his closet and slipped on jeans, a soft sweater, and a fluffy jacket. He tucked the cream-colored sweater into his pants before putting on a black belt. He fixed the shirt and sat on his bed, cuffing the bottom of his jeans.

He slipped of socks and grabbed his bag, leaving his room to put his bag by the front door. He heard someone clear their throat and he looked behind him as he placed his jacket on his bag. "Oh...good morning, mom," Felix said with a smile but didn't get one in return. "What're you-"

"Don't get started on what I'm wearing," Felix interrupted with a sharp tone, giving her a small glare. He smiled after a few seconds and slowly walked towards the kitchen. "Breakfast?" He asks and he heard her give a scoff. "No, I'm fine," She says and Felix rolls his eyes as he opened the fridge. "Okay," He said.

He heard footsteps from the stairs and he turned his head to see his dad walking down the steps, getting tense when he saw his wife. "Why aren't you dressed?" She asks in a very clear disappointed voice. "I'm not going anywhere today," His dad says and his voice trailed off. Felix's eyebrows furrowed, confused about why his dad looked so scared of his wife.

Mrs. Lee gave an eye roll and walked towards the front door, mumbling, "disappointment," under her voice which didn't go unheard from Felix who had left the kitchen to give his dad his morning hug as usual. She slipped on her shoes and left the house.

"God, I fucking hope someone stabs her," Felix said after a few minutes. He leads his dad to the dining room and sat him down. "Anything wrong?" Felix asks. His dad shook his head, a bit too quickly which made Felix get suspicion. "Are you sure?" Felix asks and his dad nodded his head.

Felix gave him a sad look but understood completely. He gave a nod and walked to the kitchen to make breakfast.

The school was quiet but that's what he gets for arriving at the educational building. The school's doors opened around 6:30 because students would always come into school for their sports but students could also arrive at school early if they need supplies for projects.

Besides that fact, the student who arrived at the building walked through the freezing hallways. He looked at the object he was holding in his hands and he hoped the person he was giving it too was going to appreciate it.

He looked at the lockers and watched as he walked passed each other, brushing his hair back to fix it. He bit his bottom lip, nervous that he already forgot which locker number it was. He stopped and looked back, counting from the start of where the lockers began to where he was. He exhaled in relief as he saw he didn't pass the locker he was looking for.

He was about to start walking when he heard a pair of doors opening. He turned his head and quickly walked towards a hallway that was rarely used in the mornings. He kneeled down and exhales, hoping it didn't look weird that he practically ran to the hallway he was in to get out of view.

He waited a few minutes before looking around the corner. He saw the student had left and he let out a sigh. He left the hallway and instantly found the locker he was looking for. He walked over and looked around him before quickly entering the combination in. The locker opened and he placed the jacket and stuffed animal inside. He gently closed it and quickly left the hallway to go do his own thing.

Felix sighs as he walked back to his locker to put his books away even though it was only fourth period. He got to his locker and placed his bag next to him. He stood up but stopped. He turned his head and made eye contact with the person who was staring directly at him.

Felix gave an awkward smile and quickly turned to face his locker. He opened it quickly and unzipped his bag. He opened it as he stood back up. He paused at the stuffed animal and jacket that was inside. "Who is leaving all of this?" Felix mumbles as he takes out the stuffed animal and jacket. He puts his books back into the locker and closed his locker.

He looked at the animal tag and smiles as it was the same place that the other stuffed animal came from. "Nice to know it's the same person," Felix said and started walking towards the library to finalize somethings for his college work.
