A certain hotel.
Ernie Daniel finished washing up.
He held his phone, scrolling through Twitter, and upon seeing the video posted by Joan Edwin, his face grew as dark as ink, as if about to drip with ink.
Then, seeing Blake Fuller's figure in his own variety show "Start from Zero," he realized he had been completely unaware they'd hooked up.
"Fuck! Paparazzi! Scheming man!"
His rugged face filled with displeasure, he pulled out his phone and dialed Joan Edwin's number.
"Beep beep beep——"
It wasn't long before the call was answered.
Ernie kicked a foot against the bedside table, grinding his teeth as he demanded, "Joan Edwin, when did they get together? Why didn't you tell me if you knew?"
Joan Edwin took out examination papers and a ballpoint pen from his backpack.
The phone was on speaker on the table, allowing him to answer casually while he did his homework.
