𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞 has always preferred staying unnoticed.
At Crescent International School, she's known but never really seen. Quiet, reserved, and effortlessly brilliant, Mari keeps her world small: a few close friends, perfect grades, and a life carefully kept under control.
𝐖𝐨𝐨𝐣𝐢𝐧 is the complete opposite.
Star of the basketball team. Effortlessly popular. The kind of boy people can't ignore, even if they try.
Their lives were never supposed to cross.
Until one moment changes everything.
When Woojin's grades threaten to get him kicked off the team, and Mari finds herself needing a way to keep unwanted attention at bay, they strike a deal:

He'll pretend to be her boyfriend.
It's simple. Temporary. Harmless.
At least, that's what they tell themselves.
But between late-night study sessions, lingering glances, and a relationship that starts to feel a little too real, the line between pretending and truth begins to blur.
Because falling in love was never part of the agreement.
And breaking the rules might cost them more than they're willing to lose.
