Chapter 6 – You Can’t Relax #2
“Why do only bad things happen to people around me? Is it just your mood?”
Me, looking blankly at the sky, muttering so.
Sehwa, who was next to me, puts her hand on my shoulder with a confused expression.
Yeah, don’t say anything and comfort me.
Right now, I was playing a distraught self on a hill in serene Seoul.
It was because the imaginary person who had told Sehwa during the school opening party was in critical condition.
The girl who believed in me passed over the hollardang, and this is the result.
Here, we had a consolation meeting only for the two of us.
After staring at the sky in silence for a while, I turned my head to Sehwa.
Tears are about to come out, but I can barely hold it in,
A face that tries to show a resolute appearance.
Sehwa must have felt sorry for my face now.
I said in a hoarse voice.
“Thank you for coming.”
“Of course you should come.”
“It’s late, let’s go down.”
At my words, Sehwa slowly shakes her head.
“Let’s stay a little longer.”
“I feel a little better now. It’s really okay.”
“When I go back, you should be home alone. So listen to me.”
With complicated eyes, I slowly placed my hand on Saehwa’s hand that was placed on her shoulder.
Then Sehwa shivered very slightly.
But I didn’t see any reaction to withdraw my hand.
Rather, it just smiles saying that everything is fine.
Sehwa’s actions now are driven by sympathy.
But it is clear that he also has a crush on me.
OK, that’s enough.
Now, let’s go show Yoo Seung-hyun at work.
I put my hand down and said to Sehwa.
“Suddenly, I am very drunk.”
Sehwa picked and laughed.
As if she had an idea, she raised a finger and pointed to the sky.
“It’s raining tonight. Do you want to go eat makgeolli with pajeon?”
“Is it raining?”
“Yes.”
Pajeon makgeolli… Certainly, there’s nothing like eating on a rainy day.
But not today
I will show you Yoo Seung-hyun.
“Let’s not do that, let’s go to the bar where your boyfriend, Yoo Seung-hyun, works.”
“Um… I want to do that too… But they told me not to come to the place where I work.”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I didn’t get in the way? Do you know where it is?”
“Yes. It’s near my house It said it was a bar in front of the Gold Perfume Hotel on Handae Street…”
Gold Perfume Hotel is the place I took over.
Handaegori was the name of Hankuk University and the commercial district in the neighborhood.
By the way, what about the pub in front of it? Why did you lie and say you work in such a place?
This is only good for me
“Yoo Seung-hyun also wanted to thank me. Let’s go this time.”
“That’s true, but… I really want to set up a separate place to meet.”
This isn’t easy… Somehow…
I was contemplating how to overcome the situation, and I was delighted in the words of Sehwa.
“Instead, I think it’s okay to have a face today. To be honest, I haven’t met Seunghyun very often lately, so I miss him.”
“Is that enough?”
“Yes. I work without weekends. Keep chatting, but…”
You can’t just see the face in person.
That’s why you were able to quickly become friends with me.
I grinned.
“Then let’s do this, sneak in and come out if you seem busy. Drinking in front of busy people can make you feel bad. I’m working hard, but do you guys leisurely drink? I would like to think something like this.”
An arc line is drawn in Sehwa’s eyes.
Do you really like this care?
It was also the same as thinking that I was glad that I, who was sad, was smiling.
But what to do, Sehwa?
I’ve never been sad today
**
The bar was very busy.
I added a little lie to the point where I couldn’t even step foot.
However, the bar staff kept their eyes on Sae-hwa and answered her questions faithfully even though she had to serve several times.
Why? It’s so pretty, there’s no other reason.
“There is no employee named Yoo Seung-hyun.”
“No? You came in about a month ago… Did you quit?”
“I worked here for a year, but there was never a new employee named Yoo Seung-hyun.”
“Is that so?”
Embarrassed, Sehwa looks up at me.
Then the staff’s gaze turns to me.
Look at that hostile face.
I ignored him completely and shrugged at Sehwa.
“I think I came to the wrong place… You said you were working at a bar in front of Gold Perfume, right? Didn’t you tell me the name?”
“Yes.”
“Then let’s go somewhere else. There are two other places besides here…”
If it’s a bar in front of Gold Perfume, this is the level.
The other two pubs were a bit far apart.
Sehwa seems to know that too, and rolls with anxiety in her eyes.
“Okay…”
What if you’re already confused?
I might pass out in a little while.
Leaving behind the jealous staff’s eyes, I broke through the crowds of Handae Street and went around two more bars with Saehwa.
And of course, Sehwa couldn’t find Yoo Seung-hyun.
“What is it…? Maybe another hotel? I think I misunderstood the name of the hotel…”
You’re still perplexed.
You don’t think Yoo Seung-hyun lied?
Well… It’s worth it because you’ll have firm faith.
I asked.
“Why don’t you give me a call?”
“I just tried it, but it didn’t work.”
You must be busy running errands.
In fact, it was just a courtesy to ask him to make a phone call.
I know where he is now.
Right now Yoo Seung-hyun is at a convenience store a few blocks from here.
Anyway, the effect of the tracking monster was outstanding.
I was able to know Yoo Seung-hyun’s location as well as Yuria’s location.
I haven’t found Sylvia yet, but I’ll find out soon.
“Um… Then let’s just go somewhere and have a drink. Let’s say goodbye to Yoo Seung-hyun later.”
At my words, Sae-hwa drooped her long eyelashes.
Really pretty, pretty
“Okay.”
“The stall on the road in front of Gold Perfume sells noodles. Do you want to eat something simple there?”
“Noodles are good… But when did you see a food stall?”
“I keep an eye on my surroundings.”
“That’s right. Shall we go?”
So we moved to a small food stall on the side of the road in front of the hotel.
There, I ordered anchovy noodles and soju, and I was fed up watching Sehwa rubbing wooden chopsticks cutely.
“It hasn’t even come out yet…”
“It’s been a while since I’ve been looking forward to noodles.”
“They sell noodles even at school.”
“It doesn’t taste good.”
“That’s right.”
After having a casual conversation, the generous and benevolent aunt puts down the noodles.
Saehwa and I, who said thank you at the same time without anyone saying anything, filled each other’s soju glasses with soju.
I kept a close eye on Yoo Seung-hyun’s position as I clinked glasses with her.
Now he was hanging out at the front door of the hotel.
Looking sideways at the Gold Perfume Hotel while sipping some soju, I see a lady and a customer arguing.
You must have been a true guest, the answer comes out just by looking at it.
And Yoo Seung-hyun is trying to stop the two of them.
Good angle, good composition, good distance.
I have to let you know now.
Pouring soju into my mouth in an instant, I pointed at the hotel with my finger to Saehwa.
“Let’s have a love fight over there.”
Love fight.
It’s a fight that gives you raw pleasure, the best thing to watch next to the thrill of punching.
Sehwa looks at the direction my finger is pointing with a curious expression.
Then, after tilting his head for a moment, his expression hardened.
‘I saw it.’
Yoo Seung-hyeon protects the young lady, and the true guest makes a fuss with the two.
It was a perfect picture.
I laughed at Yoo Seung-hyun inside and asked with a puzzled expression.
“What’s the matter?”
Then Sehwa’s hand trembled slightly, and she stood up from her seat.
“Wait… Wait, I’ll go there for a while. There is something I want to check.”
After saying that, she left the stall without even listening to my answer.
I’ll watch over you from afar too.
Eat some noodles first.
Having amplified my sight and hearing, I watched Sehwa approach Yoo Seunghyun with a relaxed mind.
As the distance gets closer and closer, Yoo Seung-hyun also finds Se-hwa.
As his expression slowly hardened, he couldn’t hide his embarrassment when Sehwa came close to him.
Hey… Look at that face, it’s so amazing!
Depending on the day, soju is sweet, sweet.
**
Sehwa realized at once that Yoo Seung-hyun lied.
So, the two started arguing in earnest.
In fact, rather than quarreling, Sehwa was all about shooting Yoo Seung-hyeon.
When a third person suddenly gets involved, the embarrassed guest leaves the seat.
Then, the young lady with a relieved expression suddenly stopped in front of Yoo Seung-hyun and said this.
“Who are you to give a fuck to my uncle?”
Uh? You’re stuffing firewood into a burning house, aren’t you?
If it wasn’t for you, Sehwa would have calmed down with Yoo Seung-hyun’s persuasion.
I’ll tell Marcella and get you some bonuses.
In any case, the lady’s behavior made Sae-hwa even more angry.
In the end, Yoo Seung-hyeon teased the young lady and sent her down to the basement.
Then Sehwa screamed loudly.
“Uncle? When did you become an uncle again? Are you raising a nephew? And what the hell was that action just now! Do you have time to take care of him? Are you very confident?”
Yoo Seung-hyun is in trouble.
“No… Uncle is the word I use when calling the staff here… And Sehwa, I’m sorry to work in a place like this, but I couldn’t help it if I wanted to make a lot of money…”
“Is that important now? I guess you didn’t care that you lied to me?”
“It’s not like that… First of all, go to a quiet place separately and be serious…”
“Let’s have a serious talk? You can just do it with her!”
After saying that, Sehwa turns around and walks toward the food stall.
Yoo Seung-hyun, of course, tried to catch Se-hwa.
Well, take it or not.
I just need to watch until the quarrel is over, and then give the upset Sae-hwa a hug…
“Uncle! Call the manager! There’s a fight in the basement! It’s not even a fuss with the unnies grabbing each other’s hair!”
A pretty lady called Yoo Seung-hyun with an urgent expression.
Then, Yoo Seung-hyun hesitantly looks at Se-hwa and the lady in turn.
And the choice he made…
“Sehwa, I’m sorry! I’ll be right there, so wait for me!”
It was to catch Sehwa with words and go down to the basement.
Yes, since you can’t get fired here, which pays a lot, you should listen to me first.
Good attitude
Anyway, what kind of windfall is this?
No… It’s obviously not luck, it’s Marcella’s arrangement.
It is clear that she did it because she knew that I was trying to discredit Sehwa today.
Also, you are the best assistant.
When I go back, I won’t even lick my toes, I’ll just give you a compliment.
“Ha… I’m really dumbfounded…”
Sehwa looks at Yoo Seung-hyeon and puts on a spirited expression.
Are you upset? Will the sky fall?
Oh, isn’t that about it?
Anyway, to think that someone who has only been telling the truth is lying, and to make such a choice, let alone catch the girlfriend he has been dating for a long time.
You will get some heat.
While the two of them were fighting, I, who had already paid the bill, was out on the street with a puzzled look on my face.
Sehwa, who found me like that, approached me vigorously and asked.
“Saw?”
“Unintentionally… I’m sorry.”
“No need to be sorry, let’s just go.”
“Uh… Where…?”
“Anywhere. I need to let go of my anger now. Let’s go back to the hill we were on before.”
I nodded and carefully raised one hand.
Plastic bag with whitish broth and assorted colorful vegetables.
Seeing that, Sehwa asked.
“What is it?”
“Noodles… I packed it because it was a waste…”
At those words, Sehwa put on a dumbfounded expression.
She looked at me alternately with the noodles in her hand, then smiled as if she couldn’t stop it.
I asked with an immature face.
“Should I buy a disposable bowl…? Would you like to eat there?”
“Really… What are you so stupid for… Yes, do it. I have to stop by the convenience store on the way. It’s all blown up, so it won’t taste good.”
“Then shall we buy a new one?”
“No thanks? Let’s go.”
Her tone and expression returned to normal.
It was here that I noticed what kind of feelings Sehwa had towards me.
I have a place in her heart.
Of course, the size is too small, but it could just be a mind sitting in the unconscious, but it is there anyway.
After today, that feeling will grow even bigger.
I thought as I followed Saehwa as she left the spot, shrugging my shoulders like a guilty person.
‘The preparations are over.’
Only transformation remains.
Amdusias, wait a moment.
Let me let you run freely
