Never judge a book by it's cover

Last week was a gloomy one for Jaemin.
He tried his best to make his cousin's mind.
And the other thing is Renjun, he acts like a zombie.
After clearing the mess up, Jaemin sat down on his cozy bed and curled up.
He let a deep sigh escape his lungs.
'I still can't figure out their relationship...'
Jaemin thinks.
He would know, if he could read Jeno's mind or something, like he reads the story. But unfortunately he can't.
'Jisung-ie hides something from me. I'm sure about it. But I can't ask him right away... Or... Should I just not worry about these things? For some reason it keeps bothering me. The blame goes to that damn book!' Jaemin covered his whole body with his blanket.
.........................................................................
'SH!T, THIS DAMN BOOK. AM I ADDICTED?'
Jaemin was reading the book in the next second. He wanted to fall asleep. But here he is, reading the book which caused everything to him.

Jaemin is now in a new place, he has never been.
It's dark inside but he can tell that he's on a bed.

Jaemin could see a red dimmed light. His eyes are settling down to the dark.
"AIGO! IT SCARED ME" Jaemin shouted.
He was startled by a shadow figure standing by a door.
"It's Jeno" Jaemin whispered to himself.

"Yes, it's me."
"I know, I was scared for a se-"
Jaemin became more startled.
"OH MY GOD HOW THE HECK DID YOU HEAR ME?!"
"I sometimes can see and hear you, no need to act surprised anymore" His low voice spoke.
Jaemin's throat became dry.
"Yo- you can't touch me, right?" Jaemin asked.
"How can I know? I've never touched you before, new reader!" JeNo frowned.
This is a different side of Jeno, that Jaemin didn't see.
"Um... Okay... Fine...eh-"
"Where's Renjun?"
"Huh?"
"You're ears are working right?"
"Oh, ah- yeah .... He, he is-"
'omg I don't know... I never clearly asked Renjun where he lives now.
"Don't tell me you're dumb too, you already talked."
"No- no no no. I'm not. Actually I don't know how these things happen. I don't know where should I begi-"
"JUST ANSWER MY QUESTION" Jeno looks scary to Jaemin.
"Okay, okay... What's your problem? I'm trying to explain myself"
"I don't give a fvck about who you are. I know that you're a new reader of this book and that's it. The only thing I care about is Renjun"
"CALM DOWN! He is in the real world, but I don't know how he got there, why or when" Jaemin gradually lowered his voice.
"Get out of here"
"What-?"
"Go away you idiot. What are you doing in my room? You have no permission to be here"
"What?! But I didn't come here on purpose... You big brain!"
JeNo stared at Jaemin deadly. Jaemin felt his gaze lacering him.
"And also I don't know this world. I have no idea about where to go or how, Specially in the midnight" Jaemin continued.
"can't you see that I DON'T CARE?" JeNo grabbed Jaemin and pushed him away from his room.
Jaemin couldn't defend the strong boy.
He fell on the ground, which was a hallway.

He saw the dim light from the room disappear in a sudden.
Jaemin felt the wind of JeNo slamming the door in front of his face without even caring.

"tch-"
Jaemin rolled his eyes.
'This is what they say by don't judge a book by it's cover'
'Anyway... I got to know that I should be careful. The characters can see me sometimes and also I can be invisible sometimes. Has JeNo seen me before too? That's a question...
But the most questionable question is where and how should I go? What's this place... I can't identify a thing at all.'
According to Jaemin's memory, JeNo's door was unique. Either it's an apartment or a hotel.
But why's this place so dark, weird and red? The only thing Jaemin could think about is...
"This fvcking author is playing with me. Are you happy now? You put background effects perfectly!" Jaemin started to blame.... To the thin air
"Oh gosh! I'm hungry."
