"Why are you trying to distance yourself from me, love?"

She does not get it, and it's understandable at some point. Suddenly you just started to get distant with her. She doesn't know you're trying to make the plot happen.

In this movie, you and Irene are best friends. That's until the main character appears and both of you get head over heels for him. The betrayal game starts between you two because of the attention of the protagonist.

But since you, a cinephile who made a negative review of the movie transmigrated into the background of the movie itself, the things changed drastically.

In this instance, you in front of her, you can't think properly of how to explain it; you can't just tell her she must fall in love with the protagonist and start hating you out of nowhere. You just stay silent.

"I asked you a question," Irene steps closer to you, her arms crossed over her chest, her head tilted slightly to a side.

Irene is the typical character that's known for being a 'bad girl', but deep down she just put that act to protect herself from the world. She spent her entire life with you by her side, and now, you distancing yourself from her without an explanation? A big no.

She couldn't care less about that protagonist of the plot. She wants you only.
