"If it's a nightmare, you should wake up."

Wi Seol-ah’s words kept circling in my mind.

‘Wake up from a nightmare…’

It wasn’t as if a sudden epiphany struck me, but something about that idea felt significant. I could tell, instinctively, that there was something to be gained from her words.

Noticing my unusual expression, Wi Seol-ah tilted her head, clearly curious.

As I mulled over her statement, a thought flickered through my mind.

‘Ah?’

A possible solution crossed my mind, not revolutionary by any means, but it was something I had inexplicably failed to attempt over the past month.
