I've tried to switch up the plot of this story just a little bit. Initially, I wanted the main lead to find out about his crush's depression because of a drastic change in his behaviour, him resorting to wearing long sleeves and wristbands to school and beginning to pick at the skin around his fingernails, dig his fingernails into his palm or even bite his lower lip too hard to the point where he draws blood all whilst seeming to be deep in thought about something unknown to the rest of the characters.
However, I realized that in today's society, it isn't that simple. Even the people who show a calm and collected demeanour may be hurting on the inside. To you, they might be the happiest person you've met. But, to them, it might be a whole other story. For that purpose, I've decided to keep the lead as a positive character, thus making it harder for the other characters to tell what's actually going on behind the curtains.
In a way, this is also a piece of advice to you. Please, just because a person looks happy to you, don't assume that they are. Don't let that stop you from asking them if they're okay and checking on them every five minutes, even if it will annoy them.
That being said, if you ever need anyone to talk to, know that you have your friends. If not them, then you have your parents. If not them, you have your siblings. Not them either, then you can always message me. If for some reason I'm not online, then please hang in there. It will get better. I know most of you might get sick from hearing that on a regular basis, but it's nothing but the truth. It will get better, it always does. Maybe not now, but it will. Keep your head up.
On a final note, think about it. Think about how this story would go; the male lead having 30 days to convince his crush not to commit suicide. Then think about the ending. What would you do if I killed off his crush? Undoubtedly, you'd be extremely upset. That's how most people you hold dear to you would feel if you decided to take your own life.
This story was also originally supposed to be a Woosan fanfiction. However, I came to a conclusion that I wanted non-kpop fans or non-ateez fans to be able to read this book as well.
ALSO a lot of you said this book reminded you of another book on Wattpad titled 'In 27 Days', I wanted to let you know that I've never heard of or read that book in my entire life before. I came up with this plot by myself and had no intention of 'copying' the other book.
I hope this story, though touching a very sensitive topic, brings hope to at least a small group of you. Please read to the very end.
