Look, I was searching until late yesterday and found this old bookmark:


Don't you find it pretty?

Well, it's definitely old.
Ugh.
People who don't read really have no sense of anything.
I do read, tho?
Fanfiction doesn't count.
What are you, a cop?
Anyway, I wanted to make a bookmark just like this one.
Since I lost my old one.
Uh? The kitten one? What happened? It was so cute :⁠-⁠\
I dropped it while organizing my books, and someone's dog tore it all up.
Oh, right. Then it's all forgiven.
No, it isn't???
I liked that bookmark???
And didn't you say you were going to make a new one? Then everything's fine. Forgive and let go. It will do your heart good.

If you lived with Shota and his dogs, you would have a different mindset.
Are you inviting me to live with you?
I literally didn't say anything like that.
I like to read between the lines.
There's nothing between the lines.
But you know you'd love to live with me ;⁠)
...That wouldn't be possible.
And you know why.
Jongseob, I don't understand your fatality.
I am just being realistic.
Do you really think love is enough in our situation?
I'm not that naive to think that.
But I am stubborn. And because I know you very well, I know that you also stubbornly want to close the distance between us.
We just need to work harder.
Only you would think we have enough power to cross dimensions.
Our messages got through, didn't they?
I just know you're smiling big at the screen right now.
I am not.
C'mon, you can't know that.
I want to believe in you.
Then believe it.
It won't do any harm.
I doubt that.
But I think it's better than just accepting that I'll never be able to know what you're like.
If you're so curious, I could describe myself...
Nah.
When we discover a way to break through matter, I will see you as you are.
That's the spirit!
Are you still smiling?
Shut up.
Yes, I am.
I like someone who thinks they can do the impossible.
*Ahem*
Okay, okay. It's entirely possible. Sorry to contradict you again.
But can we change the subject?
I kind of want to show you some other bookmarks.
That's fine for me :⁠-⁠)
What is the level of decay of the next one?
You—
