“Yes?”
The woman shakes her head. He was afraid to do anything weird.
“Actually, I was looking for you because I have a favor to ask. ”
“What favor? ”
“Can you talk to me instead of singing? Of course, I'll give you all the money in time. ”
The woman felt that the words of reconstruction were strange.
There were also quite a few guests who sought out a helper in their lonely hearts and spread their frustrations.
However, a young guest who is in front of us is trying to express the purpose of the conversation from the beginning.
“Conversation is singing and playing and stuff. ”
“I want to have a deep conversation. I want to hear about your work. If you'll excuse me, of course. ”
“Am I working? Why?"
The woman trembled.
Reconstruction decided that it could no longer be hidden, and discussed the facts.
“Actually, I'm a writer. ”
“Writing……? Writer?”
“Yes.”
“You said you sell electric sheets around the market. ”
“I was joking. I'm a writer. ”
Reconstruction had no way of introducing itself as a writer. In his mind, the word writer weighed a lot. And he hasn't yet grown up to match it.
“I saw you yesterday, and as soon as I got home, I suddenly remembered the story. The karaoke helper wanted to write a story about a woman who was a pro, so I wrote a story in a hurry. ”
The woman was listening to the rebuilding with her eyes wide open.
“But I got stuck using it. I know very little about the everyday lives of people who have a job as karaoke helpers. I can't use it anymore. That's why I'm taking the liberty of asking you for a cover story. ”
The rebuilding speech dug deeply into a woman's ear without any distortion.
But the woman was still dazed.
“Is it hard?”
“Oh, no. ”
The woman raises her head.
You rub your sweaty thighs with your palms.
“It's not hard, but I'm a little embarrassed. ”
“I understand. I wouldn't have had a guest like me. ”
“We're just going to talk, right? ”
“Yes, as I said. ”
“Just answer the question and you'll pay me the same on time? ”
“Of course.”
I asked her repeatedly, and she smiled faintly. The thick lipstick made my lips look thicker and shinier.
“It would be foolish to refuse. It's nice and comfortable for me. ”
The woman reached out and opened two cans of beer one by one.
One of them is in his hands and the other is toward reconstruction.
“Cheers."
“I'm sorry, but I'm a little.... ”
Reconstruction was not enough to blur the end of the sentence. Drinking makes me distracted and unable to write properly. I didn't want to drink it if possible
But the woman did not back down.
I turned my head, pointed out my lips, and I muttered disappointingly.
“If we don't toast, we don't get a contract. ”
“Then… just one can. ”
I was reluctant to rebuild, so I took a beer.
The woman immediately turned and raised the beer and hit the rebuild.
“One shot. ”
“Yes? This one time? ”
In front of the reconstruction asking that question, the woman had already poured beer into her throat.
Reconstruction began drinking beer with a splenic face after swallowing a saliva.
My neck was sore from carbonation, so my eyes closed.
After I had finished drinking, the woman was looking at the rebuilding of drinking beer with a misguided smile.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh...! ”
I nearly drank a whole can, and then the reconstruction put down the can and vomited.
As I put my strength into my grip, the empty can frowned bluntly.
“What kind of man does this in a can of beer? ”
The woman choked in agony and laughed as she saw the throbbing reconstruction. She raises one of her extended legs, twisting and lighting a cigarette. A handful of white smoke sprayed through the cracks of your lips.
“The clock is ticking. Go ahead, ask me anything. ”
“Khh... yes. ”
The reconstruction immediately took out the notepad and pen.
He regretted bringing his laptop and asked the first question.
“I want to hear the story since you started this job. ”
The woman opened her eyes to the ceiling.
Another puff of smoke spits out, and she replies.
“I dropped out of high school. I left the house because I had a bad relationship with my stepmother. When I was doing my job, I found something that was worth a fortune, and I found myself a karaoke assistant. It's been less than a month. ”
“Yes……. ”
I was surprised at the reconstruction by taking note of the points diligently.
More than just starting a karaoke helper as a lifetime, I can't believe you brought me personal stories.
As a reconstructor, of course, it was a pleasure. It will really help shape the heroine in a novel. I should have listened to as much about her as possible.
“How did the information at first……? ”
“The Internet. I saw it, I called it in, I interviewed my uncle in a café, and I went straight to work that day. I'll be out at roughly 8: 00 and around 2: 00. And 4: 00 if you have a lot of guests. ”
“Ah, yes. 8: 00 to 2: 00. Are there any earnings outside of the basics? ”
“Customers give tips. If I'm not a regular person, I can give you a sense of humor. There's a whole lot of dirty, colorful truth to it. I'm tired.”
“Well, you must be exhausted. ”
The hand of the reconstruction remained restless, even though it was in perfect tune. The white blank paper was being tightly filled with words like cracks.
* * *
Why is it so quiet? ’
The mistress at the counter felt a strange sensation and narrowed her glance.
It was too quiet.
After a long time, the song never came out.
What happened to you? ’
It's a world full of special guests.
I know how to walk the ten streets, but I don't know how to walk the one way.
Suddenly, the insecure mistress left the counter and headed to the room where the reconstruction was taking place.
I'm just talking to you. ’
Looking through the window, the rebuilding lady and the helper girl were just sitting opposite each other and talking normally.
The landlady became very curious late.
I don't know what you're talking about all the time you didn't see me yesterday.
“Here, just get me four more beers! ”
“Yes, sir. I'll bring it right back. ”
The landlady turns and rushes to the refrigerator.
I was too busy to keep an eye on unusual customers. That's how her interest in rebuilding ended.
The night was getting deeper.
Karaoke was so high that it raised the volume of songs and heat for more guests. There was only one room that guarded the silence from beginning to end.
“Phew……. Well done."
A little over two hours later, the reconstruction picked up a pen.
I got all the answers to all the questions I thought about.
After writing a novel for a while, you will have more information that you need. At this stage, even if I wanted to ask more questions, I didn't know what to ask myself.
“I've been very helpful. I'm going to use the stories I've heard today as a reference. Do you mind if I ask you a few more questions soon? ”
The woman pulls out a new cigarette and nods, biting.
The long lashes tremble above the narrow eyes. The woman is also a little tired from the two-hour conversation.
“I get to work at 8: 00, so as early as possible. The later I'm late, the more I drink. Then it's hard to talk. ”
“I see. Rough day, huh? ”
The woman shakes her head and chuckles.
“Not really. It was just fun. ”
“That was fun?”
“I've never been asked this before. You feel like I'm becoming a star? Just like this.”
I saw a moment of fuzziness on the face of the woman who held out her tongue. You'll look much younger once you've removed your dark makeup.
“Call me later about work. Don't let Aunt Karaoke work. ”
The woman wrote a phone number on the rebuilding memo with the name Dassle.
Reconstruction was deeply appreciated with a siggy smile.
For the night she saved herself, truly.
* * *
Writing began.
Every day that started with a novel and ended with a novel flowed smoothly. I wrote for more than 16 hours a day. I still can't see the end.
Weird, I don't like it! ’
As much as I could, I filled it immediately.
I have a Seoul laptop that lets me write 10,000 characters an hour.
The problem was that I rarely liked the writing. The amount spent and the amount erased were almost boiled.
Reconstruction asked the teacher in his head, beating the batsman.
‘Sir, what do you think of this scene when you go to the motel with the maid you first met? ’
- Don't ask. There's no answer. I'm afraid the description is far too delicate. The important thing is that the two men and women caught each other's eyes, and the case is blurring because of the fancy sentences. Delete them all.
‘Yes, because I don't like it being so lightly expressed. You're not just writing a romance novel. It's also a growth novel for two men and women who have grown up in life. ’
- I'm afraid you're just a masterpiece. Don't play hard to get. Only the sincerity of Orloth. Vomit out the first thing that pops into your head. That's a real sentence.
‘Yes, sir. I'll keep that in mind. "
Seo Gun-woo in his head led his disciples with all his heat and his castle.
Reconstruction was doing everything in its power.
To write a novel that you and your teachers can be satisfied with.
‘Oh, it's stuck again...! Not enough! "
About a week ago.
Reconstruction wrapped its brow around the obstacle once again.
Without the crisis of the heroine, who was a karaoke helper, it was too much.
‘It can't always be this easy. Always singing, drinking a few beers, never ending. We need more info! ’
In fact, I was expecting it to be like this.
When I met Dassle the other day, I hardly asked questions about what might be embarrassing.
It was my first conversation, and I was relaxed that I could ask you again the next time I saw you.
May I call you now? ’
I looked at the clock, and it was past 9: 00 at night.
I was most likely already working with other guests
Reconstruction decided to send a message first and took hold of the phone.
- Hi, I'm the writer from the other day. I'm sorry I'm late, but can I see you today?
The rebuilding was very urgent because it was blocked after running up for a long time. I wanted to meet today and hear the story, not tomorrow.
Dastan rarely replies.
I could barely understand her situation as a karaoke helper, but I was nervous about the reconstruction I was waiting for.
It was over an hour ago.
The phone that received the message trembled.
Lying on the floor of the room with Lika, the reconstruction kicked in.
- Sorry, I was working. Can we do this now?
- I'll be right out.
- There's a Hansung Canoe next door. I'll be there.
- Okay, 20 minutes.
The reconstruction took the visible shirt and jeans and changed their clothes and left the house. I was going to take my car, but I quit because it was a bar. Somehow I thought a woman would feed me a glass.
“Here, brother! ”
When I enter the bar, Dassle, sitting in a corner, flashes his hand.
Reconstruction passes through a hall full of guests and sits in the chair opposite Dassle. On the round table were bean sprouts and a bottle of soju.
“We're just going to talk about it without singing anyway. This place is less stuffy and nice. ”
I said it, and Dastan smiled.
Unlike before, he had very few toilets.
Unglamorous and ordinary, women before and after their 20s wore straightforward khakis and tight-knit jeans.
‘Beautiful.'
From the first moment I saw her, I thought she was pretty. But now it was really pretty.
A natural beauty. It seems to glow on her undamaged face.
“Did you have dinner? I'm hungry.”
“I haven't eaten yet. Make it what you want. ”
“Can I get you anything? I love spicy stuff. ”
“I eat well, too. ”
“Okay, auntie! Here's a Steamed Chicken!”
Dassle, who raised her voice to order, suggested a bottle of wine.
Reconstruction received the cup with both hands, thinking it was a good idea not to bring the car.
“So, what do you want to know today? ”
“Well, I mean... ”
It was a difficult reconstruction to get the first words out.
I wasn't going to drink, but my mouth was pulling the drink by itself.
“Bad things, I have to say. or to ask about high-level areas. ”
“What is that? That's hard to say.”
“Like…… customers don't always just sing in silence. ”
“Hmm?"
I glanced at him with thin eyes.
Reconstruction felt a bit embarrassed, so I held on to my chopsticks.
The moment I picked up a pair of chopsticks, Dazzle opened his mouth halfway and laughed as if he knew.
“You're going to Emmy II, aren't you? You're curious about those parts? ”
