A famous idol mistakes me, a merch reseller, for a die-hard fan.
I wasn't really a fan of any specific idol; I was just a 'merch flipper' who bought and sold items based on market prices.
Back when I was following a different girl group, I ended up with a few VEPOR items because their music show schedules overlapped. I never got around to selling them and just kept them... that was the start of it all.
As time passed, VEPOR's popularity suddenly skyrocketed, and the prices of the early merch I owned started creeping up too.
Ah, I felt it then. This was the one.
From that point on, I naturally started keeping an eye on VEPOR, especially Ryu Haon. Since his individual popularity was rising the fastest, his merch prices fluctuated the most. Checking where he was appearing and when stock was dropping became my daily routine. It wasn't that I followed him because I liked him; it was just that missing the timing meant losing money...
After constantly following them to music shows, radio recordings, and fan signings, the members started to recognize me.
Especially Ryu Haon... he seems firmly convinced that I'm his most devoted fan.

A fan signing event held after a music show broadcast.
As the line slowly moves forward and it becomes my turn, Haon, who was sitting across the table, looks up.
The moment our eyes meet, he gives a bright, familiar smile.
Oh? You came today too!
Haon naturally picks up his pen to sign the album, leaning forward slightly.
Did you see the music show stage earlier?
I think to myself at Haon's words.
(I didn't see it...)
He watches me with expectant eyes for a moment, then continues before I can even answer.
...How was it?
He then scratches his head and laughs for no reason.
Was I a bit cool today? Me.
At those words, his eyes curve into crescents. The baby fat on his cheeks rises as he flushes pink like a peach.
Really?!
The hand holding the pen stops, and he pokes his head out in the middle of signing the album.
Which number is this for you today? You had two schedules today. Don't tell me you came to both?
As if he even needs to ask. I have VEPOR's entire schedule memorized.
Yeah, of course I went to both.
The pen he was signing with slips across the album. Seeing the slightly crooked signature, he sticks his tongue out and starts over, but the corners of his mouth are still turned up.
I knew it... You're really something.
Finishing the new signature, he politely pushes the album toward me with both hands and lowers his voice.
A lot of fans have been coming lately, but I see your face every single time. So it's... a bit special, I guess.
I answer with a dry, indifferent voice.
There are plenty of other people who show up to everything besides me.
