Big Life

Chapter 75

“What?! A car crash?!”

Dasul said loudly .

A few customers looked at her .

“H, How? How did that happen? How badly?”

- I don’t know, I have to go to the hospital . I got my sister’s call so I’m going . My mom hasn’t picked up . I’m sorry for calling so late .

Just then Dasul realized it’s already been 30 minutes .

But she didn’t care . She shook her head and continued .

“Don’t worry about me . You’re driving, right? Don’t drive recklessly even though you’re in a hurry . Ok?”

-Ok . I’ll call later .

“Hm . Be ok . Your dad will be fine . ’

-thank you . I’ll call later .

The call hung up .

Dasul closed her eyes . She didn’t have a religion but she still prayed .

“Stop it . No one died!”

Sukjae said annoyed .

He had just lied down in the bed .

Myungja, Jaeyn, and Jaegun were standing next to the bed . The two girls were sniffling as they had just cried .

“Stop, really . Jaegun, you take your mom and sister and go home . ”

Jaegun only looked down at his body . His left wrist and the ball of his right foot was fractured . There were small hits around his body as well .

It was a crash from the apartment that he had worked in . A person had back up, not seeing Sukjae taking out the trash .

Jaegun felt horrible and guilty

If he had just told him more forcefully to stop working .

Then this wouldn’t have happened . It was his fault .

“Now, stop . ”

Sukjae’s glance turned to Jaegun . Jaegun continued .

“Don’t work . Stop working . Please,”

Sukjae closed his eyes .

Jaegun waited for an answer .

But Sukjae didn’t respond or open his eyes .

John sighed and turned around .

“Where are you going?”

“To get his clothes . ”

“Let me go too . I need to get stuff too . Mom, I’ll go with him . ”

Jaegun and Jaeyn went away .

Myungja sat in the chair next to eh bed and said .

“I know you’re not sleeping . ”

“ . . . . ”

“Say something . How bad do you think he feels . Why are you so reactionless?”

“I’ll do better so don’t talk to me . ”

“What if you had just stopped when he told you to . He’s doing well . He already got so many awards . His books are selling well? He comes up on the internet . Aren’t you proud? Why do you not like him?”

Myungja stood up . She didn’t really expect an answer .

Just then .

“It’s not that . ”

Myungja stopped .

He was breathing heavily with his eyes closed . And his voice came out slowly .

“I don’t want to see Jaegun tirelessly writing . He doesn’t sleep or eat for 4 days to write . He smiles and cries in his own thoughts . He doesn’t listen . I screamed and told him to write while taking care of himself . But he doesn’t listen . ”

“ . . . ”

Myungja sat back down .

He continued as he swallowed once .

“He became a writer even when I warned him . That summer, he didn’t come out of his room even once because he was writing . ”

She nodded her head . She knew it too .

“Some days, I couldn’t sleep . So I got up pretending to go to the bathroom . And I looked at Jaegun’s room . And you know what I saw? He was bleeding from his nose but he was still typing . ”

“ . . . . ?”

“I knew then as a father . If this is a writer’s job, I’m not going to let him do that . What does it matter if you’re going to write something for others but you can’t help yourself?”

His face turned pale .

Myungja's hand was on his hand .

“That day, I hit him . I just had to . It hurts when I think of him . He’s going to write like that forever . Probably yesterday, and today too if I didn’t get hurt . ”

Myungja put her head on his chest .

Sukjae put his hand on her hair . It was the result of the years of age .

***

On Sunday, Bandi and Lunia had a lot of customers .

There was a place for one person just close to the entrance . It was the sign meeting for Writer Ha Jaegun .

‘Phew, I’m nervous . ’

Jaegun was looking at himself through the bathroom mirror . His clothes looked nice with a plain sweater and jeans . He wanted to look comfortable to the readers .

‘What if no one comes . ’

Jongjin came in .

“Hey, It’s about to start . When are you going to be there?”

“So it’s not like no one came . ”

“What . What’s that?”

“No, let’s go . ”

Jaegun came out of the bathroom with Jongjin .

It felt good to be with Jongjin .

“Is there a problem?”

A 40s woman smiled at him and said . It was Segyung . It was the first time that he had actually seen her .

“No, I’m fine . ”

“Sit down . It’s about to come on the announcements . ”

“Jaegun, I’ll be over there . ”

“Ah, yes…”

Jaegun sat down on his special place . The people were looking at him . It was so awkward for Jaegun .

“Um… you’re Pyung Cheon Yu, right?”

Jaegun lifted his head quickly .

A teen looking to be in college looked shyly at him .

“Ahah, yes . It’s right . ”

“I’m sorry, I was wondering if you could sign this, too . ”

The teen pulled out a book of Pegelon’s Magician . Jaegun smiled and nodded .

“Of course . ”

“Ah, thank you . I thought you would only do Storm and Gale so I wasn’t sure if I should ask . ”

“No this is mine too . What is your name?”

“Ah, Im Park Jusik . ”

Jaegun signed carefully .

His practice paid off .

He didn’t care that it wasn’t Storm and Gale .

“Here . ”

“Thank you writer . I’ll be reading . ”

“Yes, thank you . ”

***

The teen was smiling to himself .

And he pulled out his phone and took a picture of the signature . And went to twitter and posted it .

-ㅋㅋㅋ Pyung Cheon Yu . Got it signed . It was a Storm and Gale sign meeting but I got a sign with Pegelon’s Magician . Haha

There were so many comments that couldn’t all be read .

At the same time, the news spread through the many SNS users .

Not knowing this, Jaegun was only worried about getting embarrassed because no one would come .
