Have you ever had an experience where you became totally engrossed in something?
I'm not just talking about thinking 'Hehehe boys' but being so deeply engrossed that you got caught reading it by your parents. There must be something like that, right? Right?
If it's a movie, looking up to see what was the actor's name. If it's a game, who was voice-acting. If it's a webtoon, making fanfics.
Going a bit further, buying related merchandise could be another example. Like bodypi-
Cough
I mean...
I can confidently say that I've never been found doing such things. Until now.
I was just in my bedroom, reading some of the already read chapters of a webnovel that I was a huge fan of and giggling because of some of the funny comments posted.
It was early morning but I hadn't noticed because I accidentally stayed up all night rereading while listening to some music so unfortunately I was not able to hear the door to my room opening.
-"kekekeke"
-"Good child?"
Ah!
I quickly relaxed my face and accidentally threw my phone on the floor in order to hide what I was reading before starting to act nonchalant.
-"Papa! I told you to knock before you enter!"
-"I have done that but all I got in response was muffled giggle so I just thought you were watching reruns of that spongebill show."
Currently standing at the entrance of my room was a middle-aged man that was currently wearing a snug apron with various chibi blue dragons drawn on it with what looked like markers.
My Papa, Yong.(Blue Dragon Mascot)
He is the owner of a very successful chain of amusement parks known throughout all of South Korea, with even some branches overseas and a part of a very influential 'Noble' family known for their children's entertainment items.
-"I don't watch that show anymore Papa! That show is only for little kid and I am now 17!"
That was a lie, please forgive me SpongeBill.
-"You mean 18, I hope you didn't forget that today is your birthday so get out of bed, freshen up and come downstairs and have breakfast."
The door was then gently shut closed, followed by almost completely sound footsteps going down the marble floor.
Oh right today's my birthday, I totally forgot.
Well I might as well look and see what the time is an-
Good Heavens.
It's already 12 pm!?
Also my phone is flooded with notifications. Let's look at some of them.
