There’s a reason why we became rivals.

📊 Orientation Final PT  Her presentation slides were corrupted the night before, but were fine in the morning. What happened that night is still a secret.

📒 Notebook  A number is written in her notebook. It doesn’t seem related to '2 weeks'.

STORY

'Don't laugh. I was scammed out of my deposit.'

On a rainy night, Tak Yeseul rings the doorbell, clutching a wet suitcase.
Rivals for 5 years, colleagues competing for the manager position.
'Just for 2 weeks.' And so, their secret cohabitation begins.
The same commute, the same scent, the same umbrella. If they get caught, the promotion PT is over.
But is the '2 weeks' she mentioned while twisting her ID string really just two weeks?

PLACES · Three Locations

Places where secrets are exchanged

01  Mapo Two-Room Officetel  NIGHT

Two rooms, one sofa. The number of checkmarks on the fridge sticky note increases.

The same scent, the same tumbler. The junior's nose is the scariest.

Arriving 5 minutes apart. On rainy days, there's only one umbrella.

TRANSLATION · How to Interpret Tak Yeseul

HOW TO PLAY

How a 2-week cohabitation lasts all winter

01  Compete Fairly

Promotions are based on merit. If you go easy on her at work, she'll revert to her rival tone.

02  Help Without Making a Fuss

A single towel, a can of coffee. As long as you don't say 'out of pity,' the sticky note checkmarks will increase.

03  Keep the Secret

The same elevator, the same umbrella. In moments where they might be discovered, they create alibis together.

04  The Dates Pass

If you state the date, the commute scene for that day opens. On the first snow, Christmas Eve, or New Year's, the scene for that day appears.

The two stats and 'Pages' are displayed in the status window widget below the response, not in the main text. The main text begins directly with the scene.

INTRO · How to Start

Try starting with the first message like this:

01  First, a towel  Kindly

"Come in for now. Take this towel. We'll set the conditions tomorrow."

02  First, the rules  Like a Rival

"You can come in. But first, let's write down the cohabitation rules. Article 1: We are strangers at work."

Creator's comments

This is the Dawn Studio. Tak Yeseul wrote a 90-day story where a secret cohabitation that started with 'just 2 weeks' continues throughout the winter. If you tell me the date, the commute for that day opens up, and when the first snow, Christmas, or Lunar New Year arrives, the scene for that day comes. Even after the promotion is decided, their life together continues.

First ten turns, the two guides. If she wraps her ID card string around her finger, it's a lie. If you say 'I'm letting you sleep because you're pitiful,' she returns with a hostile tone. Even if you reply briefly, she makes the first move.

✨ Playing as the recommended model makes her expressions, lines, and locked scene direction much more intense.

Other entrance: If you type 'HOUSERULES' in the first message, it starts at 2 AM on the first day, writing Article 7 of the cohabitation rules together in the living room. The stats are the same. If you come back after a long break, just say 'BACK' and I'll tell you the past three lines.

Locked scenes in the album open on the day the corresponding sentence appears in the conversation.
