NOVEL NEXT chapter 46
[3463342] It’s a dumb post but if Seo-eul filmed Best Friend X Swap with that fcker it would be so f**ing funny.
I know it’s impossible too, f***.
But they’re so obviously the motif and they’re gritting their teeth trying not to show up, it pisses me off. I want to see them doing the swap missions together, messing around like idiots, but Seo-eul would be the only one doing anything seriously and that fcker would probably just flip the bird the whole time. F**.

· Would that ever happen?
⤷2 For real, it would be two weeks where only Seo-eul suffers like hell.
⤷I genuinely cannot imagine what they’d even do together;
⤷First of all, one side does one mission, one tantrum, one lawsuit.
⤷“Scrap metal.”
⤷Disbanded.
· People do not even refer to Seo Sa-heon by full consonants anymore.
⤷LMAOOOOOO
⤷One person gets their full name, the other gets a single consonant.
⤷And even that’s too much for him right now, right?
⤷Delete the dumb post, go go.
⤷Are you scared you’ll get sued just for saying his name?
⤷It’s not “just saying his name,” you idiot, haha

· I’m genuinely curious — why doesn’t that f*cker have a fan café?
⤷He does.
⤷No he doesn’t.
⤷He does, it just explodes so often it looks like he doesn’t have one.
⤷Whoa.
· ;; What kind of behavior makes a fan café explode so often it looks like it doesn’t exist?
⤷Why do you think? Because the place is a cyber psychiatric ward.
⤷LOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLL
⤷LMAOOOOOOOOO
⤷Laugh all you want, it’s not even a joke.
⤷Feature: but now without doctors or nurses.
⤷If life feels hard, go visit. Your issues don’t even qualify as mental illness compared to theirs.
· What is Lee Seo-eul doing these days?
⤷No news.
⤷What do you mean what is he doing? The only person who knows what Lee Seo-eul is doing is Lee Seo-eul.
⤷LOLOL f***.
⤷But yeah, it is weird. After his last movie he has absolutely zero future work lined up? No schedule at all? Isn’t he the type who never communicates but works like an ox?
⤷He’s also human. Let him rest.
⤷F***, people are worried he’ll disappear again like last time.
· LOOOLL I’m dying, the original poster was trying to talk about Best Friend X Swap but nobody is taking the bait.
⤷Uuup weok ptooeh
⤷You bastards.
· You still believe those two are friends? lol
⤷? Their entire elementary, middle, and high school history together was verified ages ago, what do you mean.
⤷That district is an escalator school system, so what?
⤷Ah okay, I see whose fan you are.
⤷LOLOL
⤷LMAOOOOOOOO
⤷??: “It’s photoshopped lol”
⤷(Link) Yeah your beloved oppa is in fact Seo Sa-heon’s classmate :)
[Scrap] Currently hot rumor testimony (repost)
[Anonymous] No, the two of them really are best friends.
People just keep quiet about it, but everyone who knows them knows.
They went to the same schools the whole time, and whenever Lee Seo-eul came to school, he was always stuck to Seo Sa-heon and I heard their families are close too.
My friends and I were actually more shocked that Seo Sa-heon debuted in the entertainment industry. We really thought he’d never, ever go down that path.
The reason is exactly what you think. He was like that as a normal guy too. His psycho-meter reading was accurate.
Before this turns into “prove it,” here’s my yearbook photo.
(Poof)

· F***... so that sneak-shot wasn’t a crappy cut-out photoshop after all.
⤷LMAOOOOOOO
⤷LOOOOLLLLL
⤷The sound of all Lee Seo-eul fans’ chests collapsing at once.
⤷Ah LOLOL seriously why are you like this to us;
⤷Please let this post also be photoshopped....
⤷Would it be?
· Wow, so Lee Seo-eul did go to school... since there are practically zero sightings this is all so new.
⤷For real, he barely came. Only showed up enough to check his attendance requirement.
⤷What was he like at school?
⤷For real, he was insanely kind. If you asked for an autograph he’d give you one, he remembered every classmate’s name even though he barely showed up... he was so famous that kids would try to act friendly or pick fights just to get his attention, and he took all of it calmly. I never saw him frown once in six years.
⤷Huh? Six years?
⤷For real, yeah. We went to the same middle school too. Want me to prove that too?
⤷No... please stop proving anything...
· LOLOL What about Seo Sa-heon, he had a ton of rumors.
⤷For real, he was super popular as a student too. Tons of stories but he wasn’t a bully or anything. If you didn’t provoke him he was quiet. His personality is way softer now — he used to be sharper, talked less.
⤷That’s “softer”? If he talked any less than now he’d communicate with his peers by telepathy.
⤷For real, he just had zero interest in other people. Not even the guys hanging around him? He really only talked to Lee Seo-eul. That was actually the first time I saw him smile.
⤷? Why is this suddenly turning me on?

⤷?
⤷????
⤷Wow.
⤷Ah what the hell, what’s the truth? If it’s “two weeks of recovery” that’s school violence f***.
⤷He seriously hit someone?
⤷For real, hey lolol you’re that psycho, right? Wow you’re still doing this? You were the one who swung a knife out of nowhere, you crazy bastard. The whole school was overturned because of you.
⤷???????????
⤷Knifing? Seriously?

⤷For real, go to a hospital.

Beep, beep–.
At the familiar alarm sound, Seo-eul reflexively reached out a hand.
He was still half-asleep, fumbling around, but found nothing. Only smoothing the poor sheet with his fingers. He gave up and instead tugged the sleep mask off his eyes. The sting of light seeping into the once-dark vision made him blink several times. Only then did he spot his phone, half buried under the pillow.
Ah, how did I even fall asleep….
“Mm….”
He hurriedly swiped to turn off the alarm, letting out a short groan.
He knew very well that lazing around for ten more minutes, twenty more minutes was exactly the habit that ruined his whole day… yet it was never easy to stop.
He scrubbed the corner of his eye against the pillow to clear his mind, ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ then slowly lifted his upper body. The blanket slid down from his shoulders in a soft rush. The cold touched his skin immediately, but it was not as bone-deep chilly as yesterday.
When he kneaded the stiff back of his neck with his palm, the thick inner lining of a hood brushed against the back of his hand. And in that instant, Seo-eul remembered his last memory.
‘When did you pack this?’
Last night, the moment their roommate assignment was decided and they stepped into the room at the end of the hall, the first thing Seo Sa-heon did was pull his own hoodie over Seo-eul’s head. Seo-eul, ambushed before he could even fix his messed-up hair, asked in confusion. It was a piece of clothing he definitely hadn’t packed when he packed Sa-heon’s suitcase for him.
‘I packed it before we left. I brought a few others too.’
‘Hey, it’s summer….’
‘I know. I brought them to dress you. In case you tried to dump me on someone else again like earlier.’
Mm, of course he heard all of it. Ever since that “switch partners” talk, Seo-eul had suspected it, and apparently Sa-heon had been awake the whole time. Sorting through the static in his hair, Seo-eul lowered his eyes. Given the way things had been going, he expected Sa-heon to throw a fit about being abandoned or neglected. But what came instead was a voice tinged with laughter.
‘That’s why I’ll try harder, then.’
‘…What?’
‘Why. You said the one who wants it more puts in the effort. If I want to stay roommates with you, I’d better behave prettily, right?’
Before Seo-eul could say anything to that, he was pushed forward by the back. Sa-heon shoved him straight into the bathroom right outside the room, telling him to wash up first. Seo-eul just stared at the closed door, dazed. What just happened? And also, how was he supposed to wash? He had not even unlocked his suitcase yet. Just as he turned, remembering that, he saw that all his toiletries — the ones that should have been in his suitcase — were neatly arranged on one corner of the sink.
What… when did he even organize this.
He was baffled, but he still needed to wash, so he grabbed the toothbrush.
After washing his face and returning to the room, he saw Seo Sa-heon sitting on the bed. Sa-heon was looking at something on his phone, didn’t even lift his head, and just gestured at him. Wondering what that meant, Seo-eul stepped closer — and immediately, Sa-heon pushed the blanket down and told him to lie down. Seo-eul froze, assuming he was supposed to use the opposite bed, but Sa-heon didn’t wait. He grabbed his wrist and pulled him into the bed in seconds.
‘Sleep here. It’s less cold.’
‘Huh.’
I have seen this scene somewhere. His brows knitted as the familiar morning memory surfaced. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Sa-heon chuckled and pulled the blanket up to Seo-eul’s nose.
‘Good job, Lee Seo-eul.’
‘…….’
‘You’re exhausted from worrying about other people all day. I organized your stuff already, so close your eyes and sleep. I’ll turn off the lights.’
If your eyes are still wide open after washing up, you’ll get scolded.
After saying that, he brushed Seo-eul’s forehead with his thumb and stood up.
He was not a five-year-old child — why was he getting scolded for not falling asleep fast enough? Seo-eul was still bewildered when the door closed. He was tired, yes, but not exactly sleepy. He let out a sigh and closed his eyes. If Sa-heon said it like that, the least he could do was pretend to fall asleep….
But surprisingly, he remembered nothing after that.
