Chapter 249 – Episode 249

Song A-young, shedding tears, left work early.
She said she didn’t have any students today anyway. As for webtoons, she says, she still has very few students when it comes to web novels.
Well, I don’t know the picture.

Anyone can write if they know how to use a keyboard.

‘Well, even if she doesn’t, Song A-young isn’t the type to be an instructor smoothly.’

She knows because she was taught one-on-one. As for Song A-young, I really like her personality. When you meet her, she smiles and is kind to everyone.
Looking at that alone, one might misunderstand that she was friendly, but in reality, it was just a desperate act.
In her mind, she was a woman who was so upset that she wanted to go home quickly.

‘Because she knows that she is that kind of person, she may have pushed Aebom harder.’

When you look back.

Should Song A-young start glaring at her instructor in earnest, after all she had just said?

Because she doesn’t like to look at things in a funny or light manner.

Song A-young, who had truly felt what her ultimate medicine was through Abom, tried to relieve her own worries, and at that moment, I was at the entrance to her academy.

‘Hyeonwoo sssss’ …’

At this time, she felt a little goosebumps.
People can’t be careful about everything.

I thought that if the puzzle fit together so well, she might be suspicious. Song A-young did not think this situation was strange at all.

I was so happy just to have me right next to me that I didn’t know what to do.

She found that a little creepy.

‘This is the difference between heaven and earth between someone who knows everything and someone who sees it without knowing anything.’

It’s not for nothing that they say that you see what you know.

I thought I could understand why most people bungee jump without a rope down a cliff without even thinking about failure.

Anyway, it was so smooth that I ended up having drinks with Song A-young.

[Today’s Chicken]

Did I drink alcohol for about 3 hours without even touching the chicken?

Her complexion is just fine, and the woman with her puffy eyes slaps her palm on the table and makes a clucking sound with her tongue.

“It felt like Aebom was saying that to me.”

I answered before Song Ayoung could say the next word.

“You want me to continue being a writer?”

“That’s right, that’s it. Yes? How did Hyunwoo know that? Anyway, and. What if something like today happened! If only someone else had done it…”

It was the same this time too.

“I just thought it was crazy. “You mean you could accept it because it was Hanae Bom?”

“Answer! Clap!”

Song A-young, who made a clapping sound with her mouth, opens her eyes wide as she claps the air with her hands.

“That’s strange. Our Hyunwoo, what can I say! I think I know everything. Is that it? Have you ever gained the ability to predict the future? Hehe, this is a cliché that often appears in fantasy novels.”

I laughed out loud.

“If I had that ability, I would have bought the lottery ticket first.”

“Aha! That’s right. Then how do you know?”

“That’s because I’m already hearing the same thing for the 8th time. “If this is enough, even I, a bad person, can memorize it.”

“Oh my, I said it 8 times!”

Song A-young laughs.

“But what should I do if I want to say it again, even if it hurts my mouth to say it like that?”

“…”

“It’s so amazing.”

Admiration. Awe. Powerlessness, etc.

Song A-young speaks in a voice filled with many emotions.

“It’s so amazing. A woman like me can only create such characters in novels. What kind of person can do that in real life? Even female protagonists in dramas can’t do that.”

“That’s right.”

What is Song A-young feeling right now? I knew her better than anyone else.

Because it’s something I feel when I’m always next to her.

“It’s amazing, really amazing.”

“It’s amazing.”

While continuing to express our admiration, we raised our glasses again as if we had made a promise. Song A-young’s story continued for quite a long time.

Of course.

Not even for a day or two. The things I had been suffering from for years were finally released today. There was no way the things contained within it were light.

“I’m actually retiring like this. I was also thinking about returning to farming.”

“…”

“I can’t even think about it. Hehe, what if time passes? I thought it would get better. But the funny thing is, as time goes by, I become more and more unable to do it. Now, just looking at the pure white background of the newly created manuscript in front of the keyboard makes my head turn white.”

Song A-young spoke, tapping her own head a few times with her trembling arms, as if she had some sort of mental problem.

“Huh? How did I write? How did you write it? “What kind of mindset did I have when I wrote it?”

If anyone saw it, they would think it was a communication.

“Oh, oh, you don’t remember a thing? Amazing. I guess an eraser came in and out of my head!”

「Glance」

People around her looked at Song A-young and gave her a few glances. I wasn’t embarrassed or embarrassed at all.

I just felt sorry.

I felt so heartbroken for no reason. I wonder how much pain she must have suffered to speak like this.

“Even a web novel academy instructor. In fact, I directly asked the academy director to hire me because I don’t have to pay even the minimum hourly wage.”

“Really?”

“Yes. I thought that if I taught students, I would naturally regain my old senses and mindset. Hehe.”

I laughed softly as I poured beer into her empty glass.

“But, it did come true. In the end, Han Ae-bom enlightened me properly today.”

“Yes. That’s right. The timing was also creepy, because I was thinking that Aebom was my last student.”

I nodded.

“Life is like that sometimes. Strangely, there were times like that.”

“That’s right. It’s fascinating.”

Song A-young, who was expressing her admiration, burst out laughing and then opened her mouth.

“Me. I know it’s not good to say things like this in front of others. Mr. Woo, I think we should definitely do it or not. These days, there is so much talk about what not to do! So, I guess that’s why I became a writer!”

I nodded.

Song A-young opens her mouth.

“Today, when Ms. Aebom said she came to show off to me, she thought to herself, ‘What am I doing? I thought so. “She secretly thought she was ugly.”

I nodded her head again.
These days, it is also reported through various media that if you bring up such negative stories, you will only lose yourself.

These days, everyone is trying to only say good things.

But, I guess it can be done to some extent.

It would be best if you could solve it on your own, but some people can’t do that.

Like Song A-young or me.

“1 million views in episode 12? Kiya, it was dizzying. How did you get such good grades? Is it really because I taught it too well? It’s not? That can’t be possible?”

“…”

“And then I thought to myself, ‘I’m going to break down in the next episode.’ I’m going to collapse on my own under the pressure of so much attention. Otherwise, if you receive malicious comments, you probably won’t be able to write as comfortably as you do now, right? And, even if it’s not strong. In a corner of my mind, maybe…”

“…”

Song A-young let out an intermittent laugh like the crazy bitch she is.

“Instead of saying goodbye like that, you cursed inside. Before I even felt disillusioned with myself, Mr. Aebom hit the nail on the head, right? Hee, hee. At that time, I really thought my heart stopped. I’ve never been so scared in my life. Cold sweat runs down my back and a tingling sensation of static electricity rises. Ha.”

It seems like that.

Because Song A-young couldn’t even breathe, I was worried that she might collapse.

“But because she was that scared, I think she was even more able to face the things she had been ignoring.”

“…”

“What about malicious comments? What is the pressure of being a popular writer? “You guys are scarier than Aebom, dude?!”

We burst into laughter side by side.

“I think no matter what you throw at me, it won’t be scarier than Mr. Aebom. On the contrary, it gave me courage. The courage to try one more time.”

Han Ae-bom’s prescription for extreme medicine was successful.

However.

“Well, so. Sniff, er, er… I can write again… Right? “Huh?”

There was no way that cutting out a wound that had been festering for several years at once would not have any aftereffects.

I don’t know how I got the courage to try again.

It’s as if post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is etched into your body. As soon as she decided to write, Song A-young’s body began to tremble as if there had been an earthquake.

“This is strange… Yes? Well, it’s not like I’m planning to write a particularly popular work. Even though I’m just trying to write what I want to write. Why, why again…”

I definitely realized this when I saw Song A-young in tears and embarrassment.

The reason why Han Ae-bom dragged me along. As for the reason why she gave me the mission to comfort her at the end…

Since he cut out her wounds, he wants me to cover them up.

‘It’s really creepy that they calculated all of this.’

She knew how things would turn out from the moment she envisioned them.
Is the phrase ‘even if you jump, the palm of your hand like a Buddha’ used in situations like this?

‘It feels a bit strange.’

She vaguely knew what Aebom was thinking of as a way to comfort her, and she knew what she expected from me.

However, in my opinion, this was the best.

“Ayoung, would you like to get vaccinated too?”

“… Yes?”

I scratched my cheek while looking at Song A-young tilting her head.

“It’s a little embarrassing, because this time I personally went to visit the guy who was maliciously harassing Mr. Aebom.”

“Yes?! Well, is that possible? No, you’re not that scared of meeting him in person, are you? I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do it. It’s too dangerous! If you look at the news these days, you can see that there are murders happening on the streets. Please be careful.”

Normally it would be difficult, but it was a moment when the quest really helped. Besides, I was no longer an ordinary human being, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

“Well, it just so happened, hehe.”

“… So, what happened?”

Even though he was worried, he was also curious.

Looking at Song A-young with her eyes wide open and her upper body slightly leaning forward, I briefly explained what happened at that time.
Then, Song A-young opens her mouth.

“No, how could that…” … Hyunwoo was also a great person.”

“Oh, if you think about it that way, Ayoung is also a popular writer.”

“Ugh, it’s embarrassing, so please don’t say that.”

“I’m embarrassed too?”

“Are you really not that scared? Going to strangers at random times, like that…”

“Not at all.”

I couldn’t think of a good reason, so I just gave it a rough guess.

“You’re a man.”

“Ah!”

However, it seemed like the reason given was something that struck Song A-young’s heart once again.

“That’s right, Hyunwoo… It’s a man. That’s pretty good too…”

She is Song A-young, who is drunk and can’t manage her facial expressions properly. She muttered with her face full of jealousy and envy.
“For some reason, when Ms. Aebom said that she had been vaccinated, the corners of her mouth seemed to turn up a lot.”

Seeing her cute jealousy, the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
“So, Mr. Ayoung, would you like to get hit on too? The vaccination I give you. “If she gets hit just once, she will become so confident that she won’t be afraid of any malicious comments.”

“The vaccination that Hyunwoo gave me, right…”

Song A-young muttered softly, and her pupils fluttered.
