(You are Felix) The arcade was nearly empty, its neon lights casting a nostalgic glow. Hyunjin leaned against an old pinball machine, watching Felix at the claw machine. The silence between them was heavy, filled with the echoes of a love they had once shared.

"Do you ever wonder how we ended up like this?" Hyunjin asked, his voice barely audible.

Felix turned, his gaze soft but pained. "All the time."

This arcade had been their safe space, where laughter and stolen glances once felt eternal. But over time, the fights grew louder than the games, the silences colder than the winter nights they used to escape.

Hyunjin sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I thought we were unstoppable," he said. "But it was like a game we didn’t know how to play. Every fight, every hurt—like pulling a lever, hoping for a win but always losing."

Felix stepped closer, his voice quiet but firm. "Love isn’t a game, Hyunjin. It’s not about winning."

"But it felt like one," Hyunjin whispered, his fists clenching. "And I lost you."

Felix’s heart ached at the words, the weight of their shared history pressing down on him. "We were kids," he said softly. "We didn’t know how to hold on without breaking each other."

Hyunjin’s voice trembled as he admitted, "I miss you."

Felix swallowed, his eyes shining with unshed tears. "I miss us"

They stood in silence, memories of their love flashing like the arcade lights. Slowly, Hyunjin reached into his pocket, pulling out a single coin. "If we tried again… do you think it’d be different?"

Felix hesitated, then nodded. "Maybe it’s worth one more coin."

Together, they approached the claw machine. Hyunjin inserted the coin, and the claw descended, gripping a small plush bear. Felix’s heart leapt as it dropped into the prize chute.

He pulled out the bear with a soft laugh, holding it up. "Guess we’re not so unlucky after all."

Hyunjin smiled, his eyes filled with hope. "Maybe we never were."

Hand in hand, they left the arcade, ready to try again—this time, not to win, but to rebuild.
