Chapter 83


How is this here…?’


In the box were Jaegun’s debut fantasy s .


The unfortunate s that got ended quickly .


The painful s that he didn’t even want to think of were discovered in his dad’s closet . contemporary romance


Jaegun opened the entrance of the box . All the books were in there .


Not just them either .


All the books, even the two series that he made before the hit Ranking series, were there . The only ones that were not there were the 90s Child and the Breathe that weren’t made into paper books .


“Ha…,”


Jaegun sighed .


Jaegun picked up his debut book with one hand .


It was obviously read . The pages had signs of a person carefully reading them .


The last page .


-Jaegun’s first project .


I don’t know why, but it got ended at the good part .


His dad’s writing filled his eyes .


Jaegun bit his lip and looked at the other books .


As he expected, all of them had his dad’s writing .


-Jaegun’s second project .


It seems like he was less stressed than the first one .


-Jaegun’s third project


It’s really good, but maybe it’s too dark for the readers?


-Jaegun’s fourth project .


Like my son, he finally uprises .


-Jaegun’s fifth project .


It’s good to hear from my son by my wife and daughter, but I don’t know if I should laugh comfortably or not .


They were books that were not published either


The drafts that he wrote in college were all there . It was the draft that he had ripped and stuffed in the trash can . The drafts that should have been ripped were taped together .


Jaegun closed his eyes and sniffed .


He tried to press down his emotions .


If any tears came out, he would feel like such an idiot for being so distance from his dad .


In the time he was pressing his emotions, he saw another one . A bank account .


Why?


“Ha… . Ha… . Ha… . . ”


Jaegun kneeled as he opened the bank account .


It was money that his dad had saved up for him


There was a memo as well .


-Gonna be given at age 30


Since the first month seven years ago, 150 dollars were inputted every month . His dad’s mind continued until just last year’s summer .


The first month of his hit novel .


Beep! Beep!


Jaeyn called him


He couldn’t pick it up, though .


The only voice that he had was a crying one .


He kneeled and put his head down on the ground . His tears flowed quickly and dripped on his dad’s study .

“Somii, are you done? Let’s go eat . ”


“Yes, Lee”


Somii turned off the monitor . She stood up, turned around and shivered slightly .


The editor was right in front of her .


“What did you say?”


“I don’t…”


“What you called Assistant Manager Lee . ”


He looked down at her .


Somii stayed silent awkwardly as she stood .


“Editor, it’s because I told her to call her by my name…”


“Is this work?”


“Yes?”


“Did you come here to work? You have to keep society rules in society . It’s easy to break the workplace . You know?”


Somii put his head down .


Thinking that Assistant Manager Lee was getting chewed out as well, she didn’t know what to do .


“I’ll keep it in mind . ”


She answered quietly .


Kyunguk laughed slightly and added looking at Somii .


“And also, are you not the bun girl today?”


Somii only stood quietly .


As the nickname grew, Kyunguk mentioned it many times to make fun of it .


It was probably Go who told him, Somii and Lee thought .


“Hey, let’s go eat, Go . ”


“Yes, editor . Let’s go . ”


Kyunguk stood up and left . And then when they couldn’t be heard, Lee went over to Somii .


“Are you ok?”


“I’m sorry, for me…”


“I’m sorry . It’s my fault . I didn’t know he would be like that . An idiot . ”


Lee said as she rubbed Somii’s back .


Somii forced a smile . If it weren’t for Lee, she would have cried .


“How’s Albap?”


“I’m fine . ”


The two people went to a restaurant and ordered . Lee said as she poured water .


“Men are idiots . Don’t worry . ”


“ . . . ”


“It’s hard, right? He’s worse on you in particular . Maybe because of the hatred for Writer Ha . He became quiet after he’s gone towards me . ”


Somii lightened up .


“The editor went for Assistant Lee?”


“Call me Lee because we’re outside . Yeah… but he asked me to eat lunch with me a lot, and he got reprimanded .


Lee continued .


“There was a time when he called at 11 . It’s so hard being an editor, so I had a drink? He asked if I can come out . Am I crazy? I rejected him . ”


Somii’s phone rang from a message


Somii brightened as she looked at her phone


It was from Jaegun .


-Writer Jang Eunyoung likes the picture . You’re eating, right? Have a nice lunch .


“It’s Writer Ha, right?”


Lee asked mischievously .


Somii brightened red and asked .


“How?”


“Look at you . You were dying of happiness . Dying . What is it?”


“Ah, just that he liked the picture . ”


Lee was the only one in StarBooks who knew about Somii’s other job .


Also, Somii only knew that Lee worked at another place on the weekends .


“Yeah . Earn while you’re earning . It’s not like it’s hurting you . ”


The food came out .


Lee quickly tried to mix the rice together .


Somii before eating sent a reply to Jaegun .


She revised it many times because she was worried that it might be a bit too much .


-It’s all because of you, Writer Ha ^^ You should eat lunch well and be careful of the cold . Contact me anytime you have anything going on . Fighting!
