NovelEnglishChapter 74
His footsteps were as light and happy as his mind .
His surroundings were getting prettier and brighter .
‘Phew, I still have plenty of time . ’
Jaegun turned on the engine .
He needed to meet Dasul .
She was the person that had given him the most help . He needed to meet her today .
It would be fine if he met her earlier .
He didn’t really have anything else to do either . Jaegun called her .
-Hm, yes Writer?
With Dasul’s energetic voice, Jaegun smiled . He answered back with his phone between his head and his shoulder .
“I’m open now . Do you want to meet earlier?”
-Whatever you want . I’m at the bookstore .
“Store? Why?”
-Wow, not the best reaction . If someone heard that, they would think I’m an idiot who never reads books .
“No, not like…”
-Again, Being too serious . I came to buy your book . Haha .
“Wait, Don’t buy it . I have it right now . ”
Jaegun said looking at the book . He bought it today . It had his sign and everything .
-Come quickly . I’m at the 4th exit .
“Ok . I’ll be there in 30 minutes .
The traffic was serious .

It felt like there was crash somewhere . Jaegun was waiting impatiently, tapping his hands .
“I’m gonna be late . Is there really a crash?”
He didn’t think he would make it in 30 minutes .
Just then his phone vibrated on the passenger seat .
It was from his sister Jaeyn .
Jaegun laughed . She probably called as soon as she had gotten the book that he had sent to Suwon earlier .
“How is it? Is it good?”
Jaegun asked .
But just then, the next second . His face froze in place . He could hear Jaeyn crying voice .
“What . What is it? What happened?”
-Jaegun… . How… . !
Jaegun turned pale as he heard the following words .
The cars were driving ahead in the green light .
However, Jaegun quickly turned to the 1st lane for a u-turn .

‘Hahah, I’m still gonna buy one . ’
Dasul smiled like a kid and put his phone away . With her new shoes, she headed towards the store .
‘Ah, I found it . ’
She found the book between the many books . It had the banner around it that said ‘31st Modern Teen Literary Contest Winner . ’
‘It looks good . Even though he looks cuter in real life .
Dasul smiled again when she saw his picture .
She couldn't stop the laughing when she kept seeing his face . And her fingers were turning the page .
-I offer this book to Dasul and her life .
‘ . . . ?!’
The one sentence in the blank page .
Dasul looked with a shocked face in that page .
Her eyes couldn't believe it . It was her name .
The people were moving around in the store .
There were people moving behind her . Yet, with this, Dasul felt like time stopped for ther .
‘Ha… . ’
She sighed . Her body turned numb and she felt no sense at all .
And then, her two eyes turned wet .
Her lips were slowly moving up .
“Sorry, But excuse me…”
A person said to Dasul . Just then, Dasul nodded her head and moved away .
‘I’m so mad . Where is he . ’
Dasul pushed her wet eyes with her fingers and headed towards the counter .
In her hand, she held the book that made her cry .
She ignored Jaegun who told her not to buy it and went out .
‘About 30 minutes?’
She moved to a cafe . She ordered coffee and started to read .
‘Wow, this is about me from the beginning/’
Dasul fell in the story . The feeling was amazing with her as the model for the character .
Dasul’s expression changed .
She turned surprised, happy, and sad, but the pages kept turning .
She had turned into the character Heyoung .

‘Can I live like that…’
Dasul thought as she read .
It was a feeling that she had felt . When she had gotten a scarf from Jaegun .
The character in the book was surviving by herself . She hadn’t read the ending yet, but she was surviving by herself .
Dasul bitterly smiled .
She didn’t have the confidence to go for her dream like Heyoung did . As she thought of that, she didn’t want to read anymore .
She felt her relationship with Jaegun felt awkward as well .
‘He doesn’t fit with me . ’
She knew from the beginning .
A totally different person from her .
She had avoided him since .
What did she come out her to meet him for?
Because of his personality?
He listens well?
A famous and good writer?
She had no answer . A sigh came out .
Beep!
The phone vibrated .
It was from Jaegun .
Dasul coughed and took the call .
“Hm, Writer . ”
-Dasul, I’m sorry, but I can’t go .
“Why?”
“I think my dad had just been in a car crash . ”
