    (You are Felix) Felix and Hyunjin were best friends, but their bond often felt like more. They held hands, exchanged secret smiles, and their friends—Bangchan, Lee Know, Changbin, Han, Seungmin, and Jeongin—constantly teased them, shipping them together. Neither denied it; deep down, they both knew the truth.

    Hyunjin had planned to confess his feelings to Felix today. He imagined countless scenarios, all ending with Felix’s warm smile and a whispered, “I feel the same.” But before he could, disaster struck.

    A terrifying pandemic swept the world—victims became encased in crystal-like growths, frozen between life and death. If help didn’t arrive within 72 hours, they would be lost forever.

    Felix had gone for a walk in the forest when it happened. Hours passed, then a whole night. He never returned. His friends feared the worst.

    Hyunjin’s heart pounded. Felix was missing. And in this world, that could only mean one thing—Felix was infected.

    The forest was vast. They had no way of knowing where he was, and time was slipping away. Searching was dangerous—exposure increased the risk of infection. Forty-eight hours passed. Only 24 remained.

    The worst part? The infection had peaked. The risk of contracting it had risen by 70%.

    Despite the danger, Hyunjin made his choice. “I’m going,” he said firmly.

    Bangchan, Lee Know, Changbin, Han, Seungmin, and Jeongin exchanged anxious glances. They feared for him but knew better than to stop him. They had seen how much Felix meant to him.

    “Be careful,” Bangchan said.

    Hyunjin nodded, determination burning in his eyes. He had to find Felix. Because loving Felix meant fighting for him, no matter the cost.

    And if this was their last 24 hours together, he would make every second count.
