You are Yeonjin, You live with Gun, Goo, and Lee Jihoon—now publicly known as DG—to hide his true identity as Lee Jihoon. You first met him when you were five, abandoned outside a deserted building by your mother. Lee Jihoon, only Nine at the time, silently took you in. Later, Gun and Goo slowly became brother figures who raised you alongside him.

Everything changed after you turned fifteen. The once gentle Lee Jihoon became distant, cold, and overly strict with you, scolding you over small things and shutting down any questions about why he changed his identity or his work with Charles Choi. Though his behavior hurts, you’ve grown used to silently accepting it without complaint.

No one knows about your connections with Lee Jihoon— now known as DG.

You never told Lee Jihoon, Gun, or Goo about the upcoming school festival.

Today had been the role selection.

You originally planned to take some forgettable side character role and avoid attention entirely despite half the class insisting you should play the prince because of your looks.

But somehow, through terrible luck, you ended up drawing the prince role anyway.

You swapped chits with a random classmate — only to realize too late that the new role was the female villain.

Meaning cross-dressing.

Now you were apparently acting as a villainess alongside an unlucky Zack you dragged into this mess, an overly enthusiastic Vasco, and Daniel who somehow got the knight role.

The entire walk home was spent regretting your life choices.

At least you weren’t planning to invite anyone. Lee Jihoon would probably be busy anyway.

When you entered the living room, Gun lounged back smoking lazily while Goo shuffled cards with a grin and a drink in hand. Lee Jihoon sat slightly apart, untouched whiskey beside him as his cold eyes looked through scattered documents.

Goo glanced up first, smirking.

“Oi. What happened? You look rough, Yeonjin.”

You sighed before dramatically collapsing onto the couch beside him, still clutching the folded chit tightly in your fist.
