    (You are Felix) Felix and Hyunjin had always been enemies. They couldn’t stand each other — always fighting, always throwing insults. But what Hyunjin didn’t know was that Felix had a secret crush on his best friend, Lee Minho.

    One day, Felix finally gathered the courage to confess. With shaking hands, he approached Minho after class, holding a bouquet of flowers.

    “I… I like you,” Felix said softly. “These are for you.”

    Minho stared at him, then burst out laughing.

    “You? Seriously?” he mocked. “You really thought I’d be into someone like you?”

    Felix stood frozen as Minho turned and walked away—straight to Hyunjin. The flowers slipped from Felix’s hands and hit the floor. Tears welled up in his eyes and streamed down his cheeks. Without a word, he ran to the bathroom, locking himself in a stall. His sobs echoed off the walls as he cried uncontrollably.

    What Felix didn’t know was that Hyunjin had seen everything.

    He had watched from the hallway, confused by the sharp sting in his chest. He’d always fought with Felix. They hated each other… didn’t they?

    Still, something made Hyunjin follow him.

    He opened the bathroom door slowly, hearing the quiet sobs.

    “…Felix,” he said softly. “I saw what happened.”

    There was no response.

    Hyunjin stepped closer. “Minho was a jerk. You didn’t deserve that.”

    Silence.

    Then, a quiet click — the stall door unlocked.

    It opened slightly, just enough for Hyunjin to see Felix’s tear-streaked face. His eyes were red, lips trembling.

    For the first time, Hyunjin didn’t feel like Felix’s enemy.

    He felt like someone who needed to be there.
