"We want to see ourselves in your eyes only."
── ??☆?? ──
Anvi Mathew, a final-year engineering student with big dreams and high aspirations for her future, is not just a diligent student but also an unapologetically silly and passionate fangirl of...
And even though my stomach twisted with nerves, I couldn't help but smile to myself.
What the hell is happening right now?
Whatever it was... I kind of didn't want it to be anything else other than real.
Enhypen is my friends' group for the Nicco Park.
....*....
The van door slid open, and a burst of warm, sunlit chatter welcomed us. Nicco Park's entrance buzzed with energy—families with kids tugging on their parents' hands, couples laughing over paper cones of ice cream, and surprisingly, a lot of foreigners gathered around the ticket area. It was a relief. The usual anxiety of blending in with the crowd was dulled slightly, knowing that Enhypen might go unnoticed today.

Sunghoon pulled his cap low, and Ni-ki adjusted his mask while stretching like a cat who'd been stuck too long in a box. The rest of the boys naturally moved into small clusters—Jake and Heeseung quietly consulting the signage, Jungwon and Sunoo taking in the vibe with wide eyes. And, Jay directing something to the driver before the car went away and he joined Heeseung and Jake in the discussion.
I hovered in the middle, caught somewhere between belonging and watching them from the outside. And yet, they made space for me like I was one of them.
If they are warming up to me, then I should not make them feel awkward. If I treat them as my friends, might be the last string of hesitance would be vanished between us. And, I have to make sure that the whole day, they should not get exposed by anyone.
I pulled out my phone and then when I was about to text my mother, Sunoo and Jungwon stood in front of me.
Sunooooo...He is so cute in his white t-shirt. Literally, I want to squish him so bad.
My Teddy!
And, beside him, Jungwon...oh gosh...I must admit they are TALL!
Literally, Tall...I didn't think as a 5 foot 2 inches, I would look like a lilli-put in front of them. I had imagined myself but now, in reality, it's kind of feeling like I am their child.
And...Jungwon showed concern for me today. Unlike that day.
He literally asked in panic if I got hurt or not.
My Jungwon.
"What are you doing?" Sunoo asked, his expression was a mixture of confusion and curiosity and I smiled at his innocent face when I showed my screen to them -- WhatsApp app opened. Jungwon took a closer look and then read out the written word.
Mumma❤️
I nodded, "Just texting my mother that I will have to attend some extra classes with two professors personally to clear some doubts for the projects and then I would go to the mall so, it would take me a while to go back home."
