"Let's go home, Yeonjun. Someone's waiting for you outside this dream."
"Can't we stay here... a bit longer? Soobin?"
"No... You need to wake up- we need to."
"I wish I could sleep a little longer and never wake up..."...

We all have our ideal of something, whether it’s our ideal life, ideal person, and ideal world. Choi Yeonjun has it as well; an ideal world.
An ideal world he thinks where he belongs. An ideal world where he thinks he should be, an ideal world without violence, sickness, a hopeful one, colorful, lively and a place where he is happy.
But is it really right for him to stay inside his make-up, ideal world?
Choi Soobin obviously is against it. He might be living in the both worlds, walking across different subconscious from time to time but he knows that a person shouldn’t be living inside a dream.
Yeonjun saw how the stranger, Soobin just stared at him without any expression. He doesn’t know if Soobin see him as a pitiful or he’s still insulting him because his face is just looking at him blankly.
“H-hey! Where are you going?” Yeonjun yelled when he saw Soobin walking away and went out through the door. He followed him but Soobin suddenly disappeared. “Hey! Where are you!?”
Yeonjun made himself teleported into the city street and there are a lot of people as usual. He looks around but the man isn’t by the sight anymore. He’s now annoyed because there are so much people and they are blocking him from looking for Soobin.
“Hey! Where are you? And who really are you!?” he shouted in annoyance. “How dare you come inside my dream and demand me to come back? Huh!? How dare you mock me when I said I wanted to stay here? Why? Who are you!?”
Suddenly the people disappeared, everything stops moving aside from him then pants after shouting and saw Soobin not that far from him. “Who really are you? D-did you just… did you just control them?”
“How did you stay here for five years when you can’t even control them? This is why there’s no brain-activity because you’re practically dead in here,” Soobin stated.
Yeonjun frowns, “What the heck are you talking about?”
“You stayed here and build this ideal world of yours when they don’t even give you attention? What are you doing in here?” Soobin asks. “Ideal world in a dream is no use if they can’t even interact to you, Yeonjun. Grip yourself and you should find your way home now,” he added.
Yeonjun looks away and bit his lower lip. “I can’t… I don’t know how.”
“What the,” Soobin scoffs.
“If I can I already did! If I know how to go back I’m not in a freaking coma right now! I wanted to go back too! Because I feel alone too in here. I can be what I am here but the people in here can’t see me at all. I created a world for my own sake, for my own satisfaction but I just can’t control them and so I want to go back! But,” he pauses when he felt a lump in his throat.
