High school au. Sarang was just an ordinary high school student, living a simple and uneventful life. That was, until the day a guy asked her out. At first, she thought it was nothing unusual-until she realized he was a total creep. His strange behavior and unsettling words made her refuse right away. But rejection didn't stop him. Instead, it only fueled his obsession. Suddenly, Sarang found herself being watched-her every step followed, her locker stuffed with disturbing notes, her once-normal life turning into a nightmare. Transferring schools wasn't an option. Running away wasn't either. If she wanted peace, she needed a plan. And the only one that made sense was to fake date someone-someone convincing enough to make her stalker finally back off. Major plot twist 🃏

Promises kept, but at what cost? In a court filled with noise, the silence between them became the loudest thing. Now, it's just a matter of who stops looking back first. Update: Once a week.
