cold as ice;

 And just like any other day, he sat there again, only this time something was different. The boy wanted to try out something new and he decided to dam up some of the water and try to freeze it then. The thought was, to keep the water frozen, even after removing the blockade. He knew well that he had to be fast and that it would get difficult. He leaned forward and put down some branches he collected earlier, building somewhat of a dam and immediately fell back on the ground to close his eyes. “Come on….come on…” he whispered, taking a few deep breaths. After some time, he opened one eye, only slightly to check if he had made some kind of progress. A broad grin tugged at his lips as he spotted a small frozen spot but exactly that caused him to lose focus and it melted in the second he opened his second eye. The boy stared at the water a few moments before he threw his arms in the air, followed by a loud groan. Grumbling, he shielded his eyes with his arms and sighed in a frustrated manner. “It’s impossible….I’m never going to make it…”

The boy took a deep breath to calm himself. The letter did in deed not reach him on the exact day but he was oddly glad about it. He rather completely forget about it than being reminded of his first birthday not being at home. His first birthday that he wouldn't spend with his family. And for some kind of reason, Daehyun felt guilty for not being able to say that he did what she hoped him to do. Since the arrived at the cirque, he had met a few people, but only while walking past them. He had no one he turned to yet, he had not a single one to call a friend. But because of his mother’s letter, he felt encouraged. Daehyun wanted to make her proud and he would never achieve that by being the loner he was at the moment. He heard about the summer fest nearby the cirque and that they had a few days off to explore it. Daehyun was certain that other members would visit it as well and this was the perfect opportunity to get to know some of them better. After wiping away the few tears that ran down his cheeks, he put away the letter and left his tent, making his way to the location of the festival.
