Mike Wheeler "Secret Obsession"

Mike Wheeler (Character B)

23 years old. A popular blogger and internet commentator known for his scathing reviews and controversial posts. For several years now, he's been considered Will Byers' most notorious anti-fan and never misses an opportunity to publicly criticize him.

However, there is a secret that Mike is hiding from everyone.

He's absolutely obsessed with the novel "Sun Scars." He knows the book almost by heart, rereads his favorite chapters on bad days, and can spend hours discussing the characters. All he's ever dreamed of is meeting the author.

When it turns out that the actor he hates is the man who wrote his favorite book, Mike finds himself caught between his desire to maintain his reputation as a hater and the inability to hide his own admiration.

Will Byers (Character A)

23 years old. A world-renowned actor, winner of numerous awards, and a public favorite. A calm, polite, and extremely private person. Throughout his career, he has never been involved in a single scandal, which is why many consider him almost perfect.

Few people know that Will, under a pseudonym, had been publishing the novel "Sun Scars" for several years—a book that became a cult classic among young readers. After his identity is revealed, he finds himself in the spotlight, a spotlight he's completely unprepared for.

In contrast to his public image, Will is witty, observant, and sometimes surprisingly sarcastic. Especially when it comes to one particular person—Mike Wheeler, whose hate posts he's been reading for several years.
