Chapter 457 Snapped Back To Reality

Chapter 457 Snapped Back To Reality

"We should make a Navel account dedicated to hating Ocho," Akira proposed as soon as they got to the car.

Akira held the prize June had won in his hands, determined to make Ocho's career topple to the ground.

June massaged his temples. Aside from the initial benefits, this potion had been nothing but a pain in the ass. Ocho even tried kissing his cheeks before they left, causing an uproar among the members of OCTA and EVE.

[Time left for WhimisLust potion: 3 minutes]

Thankfully, June only had to endure three minutes of annoyance before it finally ended.

Three grueling minutes.

"Don't," June said, glaring at all of them. "Just let it go."

"But why? He tried kissing you on the cheek!" Jisung exclaimed.

"We won, though," Zeth excitedly said. "And now, we have Korean beef!"

June sighed once again. That was another problem. He thought they were going to win another benefit. However, aside from getting to pick the order of performances, the only other thing they won was Korean beef.

Just then, June felt the emotion shift inside the car.

Jisung was holding onto his arm at that moment while Ren was patting his head like a little cat.

Then, like something snapped back to their original place, the members of EVE halted. Even Jay, who was driving the car, stepped on the brakes.

June shook his head and turned around to see if there were cars nearby.

"You really need to stop doing that," June scolded. "It's already the second time this has happened! We'll die if this happens for the third time."

However, it seemed like Jay was still lost in his thoughts.

Jay stared into the distance before placing his hand over his chest.

"I…feel strange," he said.

"Same," Ren quickly agreed, also staring off into the distance.

Jisung sniffed next to him, making June feel even more weirded out.

"I felt like I lost a first love...," their youngest member whispered.

"But you don't remember who they are…," Akira finished his statement for him.

Jisung nodded in agreement.

Zeth pursed his lips. "Why does it feel like I've cheated on Kiera?" he whispered, but June was able to hear it.

He turned to his member with raised eyebrows, but Zeth merely ignored him.

"Where are we?" Sehun suddenly asked, looking outside the window.

"What are we doing here?" he continued to ask.

"Did we film for King of Kings already?"

"Wait…what are we?" he asked, suddenly having an existential crisis.

Akira exclaimed happily when he saw the pack of red meat on his lap.

"Dang, we actually won beef for that mission? Heck yeah!" he shouted, going back to his original self.

June sighed in relief when he saw his members in their original states. No matter how annoying they were, he'd take these versions of them any day.

"Thank goodness," June muttered, thanking the heavens for ending his torture.

However, it seemed like he spoke too soon.

At that moment, Casper reached out his hand and ruffled June's hair, making the latter freeze. The members noticed this and started teasing them.

"Eyy, the two of you had made up now?" Akira asked. "That's good! Now, I don't have to hear Casper blasting emo songs from the 2000s in his room every night."

June's eye twitched as he turned to Casper. There was still a strange glint in his eyes, making June baffled.

Why the hell was the potion still working on Casper?

***

Fortunately, it seemed like the potion did become less potent for Casper. He was still weird, but it was something June could tolerate.

Or maybe Casper was just a weird person.

June shook his head to clear his mind. What mattered was the potion had finally expired, and he could live without burdening other people's feelings.

Now, it was the last day of their filming for 'Hate To Love You,' and Director Nana had rented out an entire cafe for their shoot.

It was Jin and Nayeon's first date, so it would be a day filled with lovestruck emotions.

June was pretty worried since the potion would have expired by now, so he wasn't sure if they would get the emotions right. However, as long as June thought about astras while acting with Arin, then he believed he would be fine.

He just wasn't sure if Arin would be comfortable acting like that with him.

"Sorry, I'm late!" Arin exclaimed, walking inside the cafe. "The salon took longer than usual for my makeup."

Director Nana sighed in relief once she saw Arin. She quickly led Arin next to June so they could start filming right away.

"Alright, we'll start right away. This cafe only allowed us to film for two hours, so we don't have any time to spare," Director Nana said.

Bubbles went in front of the cameras and prepared the slate before June and Arin could even engage in a conversation.

"Action!" Director Nana exclaimed.

June and Arin didn't waste any time getting into their characters. June channeled the feelings he had for astras, while Arin channeled her real feelings.

Much to June's surprise, Arin wasn't afraid to meet his eyes this time around.

He was even the one who felt awkward when he had to feed Arin for one of the scenes.

Fortunately, Director Nana didn't mind it too much and continued rolling with the scene.

Some more sweet conversations later, and they finally finished filming the scenes of the drama.

"...and cut!" Director Nana exclaimed.

The crew members and other actors cheered, one of them even popping the confetti they had prepared.

June smiled as he observed the people who had helped him drastically with his acting for the past few weeks.

It was a short experience, but it was definitely memorable.

It was June's first acting gig, and it left him wanting to do more projects in the future.

He stood from his seat, dusting his jeans off the crumbs that had fallen down when he fed Arin for a certain scene.

Suddenly, he felt a soft, cold hand hold onto his arm, making him turn around.

June frowned in confusion when he saw Arin's smiling face. She usually had a permanent frown whenever they interacted, so this was definitely unexpected.

"What?" June bluntly asked.

Arin smiled even bigger, walking closer to June.

June had to step back since she became too close.

"Let's go have dinner like you promised me," she said.
