Chapter 1 – Perhaps

  Lee Si-woo.

  A name that's quite ordinary, if you can even call it that.

  A name that appears so often in novels that it feels like I've seen it somewhere before.

  And, it's also my name.

  Of course, it's not that I have any compints about it.

  It's the name my parents gave me, so how could I have any compints?

  It's just something I think about sometimes, that's all.

  Perhaps, this pce I'm standing in right now isn't real life, but a novel.

  Perhaps, the people I'm looking at and the scenery around me are nothing more than someone's fabricated thoughts.

  I knew I wouldn't have anything to say if someone asked me if I still hadn't gotten over my chuunibyou phase at 20 years old.

  Even I think it's the kind of thought only a young kid would have.

  But, even so.

  Today, I couldn't help but think simir thoughts again.

  "Lee Si-woo! Did you oversleep again because you were pying games?!"

  [Si-woo woke up te again today… I wonder if he's feeling unwell?]

  Perhaps, this absurd situation is happening only because I'm a character in a novel.

  "...Sorry, I'm a bit te today."

  "If you're sorry, then try to be quicker next time. It's not like I've only been waiting for you for a day or two."

  "..."

  "Do you understand? Answer me."

  "Yes."

  "Good, that's enough."

  [I hope he isn't hurt by the way I spoke to him. I'm sorry, Si-woo-ya.]

  There's no other expnation for why this typical rom-com light novel-like situation is happening only to me.

  "I'll be more careful next time."

  "Hmph, you're good at giving the right answers. Make sure you keep your promise."

  "Yeah, I'm sorry."

  [Si-woo apologized to me. Actually, I wasn't really that angry…]

  [What should I do? Should I tell him I'm not angry?]

  It was difficult to decide if this was a good thing or not, but…

  At some point, I started being able to see my childhood friend's inner thoughts.
