MANIAC | SEOKSOO FF ✔️

PART 07

The next day, unable to keep the incident to himself any longer, Jisoo decided to call his brother, Jeonghan. Around 7 of evening, he dialed the number, anxiously waiting as the phone rang.

“Yes... Jisoos? Causing any trouble or death???” Jeonghan’s familiar voice answered on the other end.

“Hanie..., I need to tell you something. It’s… strange,” Jisoo began, his voice barely steady. “Last night, someone followed me home. And when I got to my door, there was a gift waiting. A musical globe with a note…”

Jeonghan's tone turned concerned. “What kind of note? Are you alright?”

Jisoo hesitated, glancing nervously at the globe he’d stashed in the corner of the room. “It was from someone calling themselves a ‘secret admirer.’ It said… they’ve been watching me. That they know my routines, my fears… even my secrets Hanie...”

A tense silence lingered before Jeonghan spoke again, his voice firm. “Jisoo, this isn’t something to brush off. We need to tell the police, or at the very least, don’t stay alone at night I will make sure to not get any night shift.”

Just then, a message notification lit up Jisoo’s phone screen. The preview of the message froze him in place. 

×××××××
Careful who you talk to, My Bluebell. Secrets are meant to be kept.

Heart hammering, he opened the message fully, the words staring back at him menacingly.

×××××××
Hello again, Bluebell. I thought I told you… keep this between us. Don’t disappoint me baby. I’m always watching.

Jisoo’s voice wavered as he spoke into the phone. “Jeonghan, I… I just got a message. From them. They know I’m talking to you.”

Jeonghan’s tone hardened. “You need to leave the apartment, now. Go somewhere safe, stay with someone. Go to Seungcheol, Soonyoung or anyone. I’ll come over—”

“No!” Jisoo’s voice was a mix of panic and confusion. “If they know I’m talking to you, they might be watching right now. They might—” He stopped, feeling the weight of unseen eyes pressing down on him.

“Jisoo,” Jeonghan’s voice softened, but it held a fierce protectiveness. “You’re not dealing with this alone. I’m coming over, and we’ll figure it out together. Don’t let fear silence you.”

But even as Jeonghan spoke, Jisoo’s mind spun with the implications. His “secret admirer” was everywhere, in his texts, his home, his conversations. This was no admirer—it was a threat, one that knew every intimate detail of his life and could strike at any moment. And now, he’d drawn his brother into this dangerous game.

A chill ran down his spine as he whispered, “Okay, Jeonghan. Just… be careful.”
