Episode 2 - where Am I

“Ella! Are you not up yet? Wake up!”

A girl’s voice echoed as she pushed me out of bed.

“Yeah… okay.”

What? I blinked in confusion.

What is happening?

I sat up, panic settling in.

This isn’t a dream... it’s real.

I was really transported into a manhwa.

Still dazed, I got up and rushed to the washroom to check my reflection.

There she was—me, but not really me.

I stared at the girl in the mirror.

My hair was long, flowing, and jet black. My skin looked flawless, and my eyes—sharp, brown, and glowing. I looked beautiful, elegant, unreal.

WTF.

Why do I look like this? Why am I so… perfect?

I tried to recall the comic. Which one was it? There were so many I’d read, especially when I was bored or sad. I didn’t remember reading one with a character named Ella...

Wait. Who am I supposed to be here? And why do I look like the lead??

“This is bad…” I muttered, pacing. “If I don’t figure out which manhwa this is, I won’t know the plot. I won’t know who to trust—or how to survive.”

It felt like a test.

A story.

But one where the stakes were suddenly very real.

I got ready and headed to school—actually, I just followed the girl who kept calling me Ella.

I didn’t even know her name, but I could tell from her uniform that she was my classmate.

She finally introduced herself.

Her name was Sena.

In this world, I was apparently studying in 12th grade again—same as before.

Wait… am I really in the same class, in the same world I left? Why was I reincarnated here? What’s the twist?

→ At School

Wow… the school structure was nice—big, clean, and kind of fancy. I was given a new admission letter, and Sena told me she was in the same class as me.

So, I did what anyone in a manhwa would do: walked into the classroom, introduced myself politely, and started my “new school life.”

It all felt way too easy.

Too smooth.

WTF.

Nothing is ever this easy.

In all those fantasy worlds, something always goes wrong. Plot twists. Enemies. Drama.

Plenty of girls dream of this, right? But now… I’m the one stuck inside a BL manhwa I barely even remember reading!

I only knew a bit of the plot…

So why me?

And why this one of all stories?

Was this really happening to me?

Just a few hours ago, I was questioning reality. Now, here I was—fully enrolled in class like everything was completely normal.

“Ella, all the best!” Sena cheered, giving me a thumbs up. “I knew you could do it! I’m in another class, okay? Bye!”

And just like that, she vanished as my class began.

“Okay! Sure…” I muttered, trying to sound confident.

I stepped inside the classroom.

“Hello everyone, I’m Ella Thomas,” I said nervously. “It’s nice to meet you.”

The teacher smiled warmly.

> “Everyone, welcome Ella to our class. Please help her adjust and make her feel comfortable.”

Then she turned to me again.

> “Ella, you can sit in the middle row, just beneath the window.”

“Okay! Thank you, ma’am.”

I walked over, sat down, and looked around.

That’s when I saw something—

someone—on my left. And someone else on my right.
