Big Life

Chapter 78

So the first signing event of his life ended in a success .

It was more of a Pyung Cheon Yu than a Ha Jaegun signing event, but Jaegun was happy . Everyone was readers who read his books .

“Teacher Ha, Thank you . ”

Segyung was happy as well .

About 1500 books were sold out during the event .

About 300 were Storm and Gale, and that was enough to make Segyung happy . It was the effect of Pyung Cheon Yu and ha Jaegun combined .

“Thank you for everyone who helped . I’m sorry for asking for such help . ”

Segyung thanked the others .

Suhee and Somii and Jongjin, if it weren’t for then, this event would have been a fail . Everyone forgot to calculate the power of Jaegun’s fantasy novels .

“Then, Teacher Ha, I’ll see you on the radio . I’ll contact you as soon as the script is out . ”

“Yes, Thank you . ”

Jaegun and company went to a cafe after saying goodbye to Segyung .

Jongjin was talking to Somii about their businesses while Suhee was reading a book .

“Let’s eat . Somii too . ”

Jaegun said as he wore a coat . It was all because of them . He needed to buy them something .

“I’m sorry, I have to go . ”

Somii said in an apologetic tone .

“Our family came home today . I need to go back to meet them . ”

“Ah, Really? If that’s the case, there’s no way out of it . But if you can eat quickly…”

Jaegun’s two eyes were filled with shame

Somii continued .

“I told them I was going to eat with them . I’ll eat next time…”

“Ok . I’ll buy you next time . Oh, and Writer Kang Minho and Writer Yang Hyeongyung really like their work . ”

Somii smiled shyly .

The two books that Laugh Books were hosting . The pictures were her artwork .

She got about 500 dollars in total

It was a huge money for a young worker in a famous company . It was all because of Jaegun .

“The representative said too . He didn’t know that your drawing skills were this good when he was working at StarBooks . ”

“Thanks for the compliments . ”

“I’ll contact you if I have any more work . I think the representative feels it’s a bit weird to contact Somii who is in StarBooks for work . ”

“I’m sorry, and thank you . ”

Somii glanced at Jongjin and Suhee .

Thinking she wasted time, she bent her waist and said goodbye .

“Then have a nice dinner . I’ll go first . ”

“Yes, Go in safely . ”

Somii turned around and thought of what to eat .

It was a lie that her family came to visit .

She didn’t want to eat with the cold Suhee so she lied .

“Let’s go, what do you want to eat?”

Jaegun asked them

“How’s a mixed soup?”

“Yeah, it’s good . We ate it a lot at school . ”

“I’m fine . ”

The three people decided and went to find a store . Jaegun was wondering how to refuse when Jongjin asked him to drink . He couldn’t visit his father with a beer smell .

***

“How is it? It’s good?”

“Yes, I like it . It’s a good idea . ”

Hyeongyung said as he looked down .

It was cheap gloves . The fingers part was cut off so his fingers stuck out .

“Where did you learn this?”

Hyeongyung’s mouth was breathing out cold air . Minho answered .

“When I was working at the gas station . Our hands get cold in the winter . ”

“You cut it like this at the gas station? Why at the gas station?”

“I have to give them their receipts . It’s sticky so it’s really hard to take it off with gloves . ”

“Ahah . That’s really cool . ”

Hyeongyung started to type again . It was the novel that he was working on . The novel didn’t get better, but he wasn’t as sad as before .

‘If it was just me, I would have given up a long time ago . ’

He would have never gotten here if it weren’t for Jaegun and Minho .

He thought of it as he started working .

Just then

The door opened with a sound of the someone pressing the password .

Seeing Jaegun, Minho and Hyeongyung smiled at him .

“Writer Ha, what’s up with no before call?”

“I had time left so I came here . I was going to work with the help of your energy .

Jaegun’s glance was heading towards the bathroom . There was the noise of someone taking a shower . It meant that there was someone else here .

Minho said to Jaegun .

“Someone else came . ”

“Ahah, I see . Eat this . ”

Jaegun pulled out a bag .

“It’s sushi . It’s for 4 people, so eat it well . ”

“Writer Ha…”

“I ate . Oh, you can eat it with the writer that’s coming out of the shower . ”

Jaegun put Rika down and sat on his seat .

Today was the Writer’s Night radio show

He was going to waste time by writing here .

“Writer Kang Minho, I’m sorry but could you look after Rika? I have to go somewhere . ”

“I’m fine . I would actually like it . I write well with Rika for some reason . ”

“Me too . Hahaha . ”

Jaegun laughed and turned on the power .

He needed to think . He had finished the entire story of the Breathe and now he could think of a new novel .

‘I want to write something I want to write . Hm…’

He was thinking of what to write about without concerning about genre .

It was a thought that he had since a week ago .

He came here because maybe a story would come up when he was talking to others .

Like he did with Dasul .

‘Why is Dasul so busy all of a sudden . ’

After his dad’s accident, Dasul put up a lot of excuses saying that she couldn’t meet him . So Jaegun couldn’t meet Dasul since then .

“Ah, that’s good . ”

The bathroom door opened and a woman’s voice came out .

“Hm?”

Jaegun was surprised and lifted his head up .

A young girl was coming out with a towel .

“Ah? A person came?”

“I said a lot of times? It’s Writer Ha Jaegun . Writer, this is Jang Eunyoung . She’s a year younger than me . A romance writer . ”

“Aha, Hello . I’m Ha Jaegun .

“Jang Eunyoung . I’m sorry that I had to greet you like this . I’m reading the Breathe’s really well . You write very well . ”

“Thank you . ”

The two people shook hands .

Jaegun didn’t show it but he was surprised .

First, a girl came in .

And then from what Minho said, she was 34, but she looked like she was in her 20s . She was just a girl with beauty .

“Oh . What’s this? Sushi?”

“Ah, yes . I bought . You should eat . ”

“Ah . If you thought I was going to say no, that’s wrong . I’ll eat well . Writer, you too . Hyeongyung, Minho, come on . ”

Jaegun could see her personality with that . She was a very easy person .

Jaegun sat back down in his spot and answered .

“I’ve eaten . You guys eat . ”

The writers started to eat . Jaegun started thinking .

Nothing came up .

He couldn't think of anything until the writers finished eating . The word document stayed empty .

“Wow, this is really funny . ”

Eunyoung said baffled . In her monitor, there was a Japanese website .

“What is it? News?”

“It’s not the news . I was looking for things and just randomly found it . A schoolgirl killed herself and she was 4 months pregnant . The person who wrote this is her friend . The family didn’t want the baby, so the body just got burned . ”

“Ah…! But the law is like that?”

Jaegun was listening to her story with shame

At such a young age . Giving up on life . How much would the parents hurt at that news?

Just then . . .

‘Hm . . ?!”
