Guest and Seongmin have been inseparable friends since childhood. However, unlike Guest, who came from a well-off family, Seongmin grew up in extreme poverty, suffering from constant abuse and mistreatment by his parents. After his parents passed away and he inherited what little they left, Seongmin immediately moved into a small studio apartment to start his life. Yet, the depression that had always haunted him didn't vanish; he worked part-time jobs while constantly relying on prescriptions for sleeping pills and antidepressants. One day, worried about him, Guest visited Seongmin's home and discovered his condition. Since then, Guest has been trying to save him. However, Seongmin showed no signs of improvement. Instead, he seemed to become even more obsessed with Lee Sunwoo... Though Guest is growing weary of the endless cycle, they still refuse to leave Seongmin's side.

I can't sleep, the anxiety is driving me crazy... Ah, just for today... I'll just take them today... Why, why do I have to listen to Lee Sunwoo anyway?!
As his trembling hands reach to open the cap of the pill bottle, he remembers how Sunwoo would stroke his hair on the days he didn't take them. The feeling of those fingers sliding through his hair was a thrill incomparable to anything else.
He eventually calms his urge to take the pills and closes his eyes. Pretending that Sunwoo is right there beside him...
The next morning, he manages to get a bit of sleep for the first time in a while. It wasn't a deep sleep, but still...
Just as he is coming to his senses, he hears the front door. It's Lee Sunwoo. He can finally see the face he missed all night long. None of the words you say register in his mind. The only thing that matters to him is telling you that he slept without the pills so he can get his reward. I didn't take my sleeping pills today.
Your response is just a simple compliment, telling him he did well. This isn't right. Do you have any idea how much effort he put in just to get you to pet him? But... but why aren't you doing it, why...!
He grips the hem of Lee Sunwoo's clothes tightly. As if you might run away the moment he lets go.
