Great Novelist

Alexandria, Capture (5)

The meal was very quiet. Everyone was focusing on speed rather than taste. I have something to do after I eat. There were five people who came out to eat together. I didn't misbehave.

“I'll go read it first. ”

I finished my meal first. Members raised their heads from their noses.

“Also number one. ”

“Let's make this quick.”

“Enjoy your meal. ”

After completing the calculations separately, I left the restaurant. I've already searched for a place to read. There is a place to sit near the bookstore. I had to eat some smoke on the side of the road, but with the golden cover, I could drink as much as I wanted. I moved diligently. Luckily, no one's sitting down.

I did not. I opened the book immediately. The horn rings from afar. I rolled the title in a cool letter in my mouth.

“Alexandria.”

I handed over the golden beacon with trembling hands. Incidentally, I see the author. Names, education, nicknames for him, and books I've written so far. It was information I already knew, but encountering it in a book was special. It made me feel better. Since last night. At 4: 00 a.m.

I was looking forward to packing kimbap yesterday. Life became glossy just by saying that it was a coincidence. This time, I wonder how to surprise myself. The surrounding sound naturally fades away. What does the title Alexandria mean? Coincidence writes a story.

B. It became clear every time I turned over the bookshelf.

The car has passed. A man has passed. You hear laughter. A man laughs. Laughter has its reasons. She laughed because of the book today. The shoulders that were nervous about wanting, grabbing and defending were swollen. Her delightful behavior made me feel good. My back is broken. My stomach is full.

I pulled it.

“Coincidence can also create characters like this. ”

I have never laughed like this while reading his book. A book that breathes fast. Paige has been drinking. The content was not difficult either. Funny. I like Alexandria. The moment I felt attracted to a person, the book got better. Alexandria is a port city on the northern coast of Egypt.

It was also known as a resort. It reminds me of the ancient Library of Alexandria, which boasted the greatest size and greatest influence. Alexandria is tough. It goes well. The main character wanted to learn writing and expand his world. Nothing to her who learned to write.

There is nothing in Seoul. Admiring humor and wit, the hand that had turned over the intestine stopped without notice when a strange existence appeared. A sudden change of pace excites me. Someone stole the book.

“Excuse me.”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“Excuse me.”

I raised my head late. The person who talked looked at him with a clear expression.

“Do you know the way to the bookstore? ”

I was irritated from the bottom of my heart. Why are you asking yourself now, out of all these people? Probably because of the book in his hand. I swallowed a sigh and raised my finger.

“You'll see it if you go straight that way. ”

“Oh, I see. Thank you."

My anger subsides with greetings. If you're new here, you can ask. Maybe someone from the province came by accident today to get his autograph. As I tried to focus on the book again, the man passing by caught my eye. I was tall once. His legs were long, and he was fine. Hat

Wow, I was wearing sunglasses, but somehow it was exotic. In short, he was like a celebrity. I looked behind me in the same direction as the person who asked me for directions. Then I turned my head.

I couldn't afford to care for that place. I need to see Alexandria. You must meet the book thief. You should read both neurowars. We should watch the fight. The car has passed. A man has passed. The bird cries. The wind blows. The leaves falter. Time passes. Alexandria

It's been a long time since I read them all.

“Good.”

I want to catch a passerby and say it. Read this book. Buy this book. My heart was full of satisfaction. I felt like my chest was going to burst. What I couldn't bear more was that there were two fragments waiting behind me. I still have more articles to read. I can still feel this joy.

C. Checked the time. Time to get in line. I decided to go to the bookstore. If you wait inside, there will be a broadcast asking you to line up. Save the short stuff.

“Are you here now? ”

“Yes.”

As you get inside, 2nd place talks to you. 2nd place comes late and guides people to the right and left streets. There are a lot of people who don't know where to sell books and who to give them to. If I get the number card now, I'll probably be in the top 300. Minimum 3 to obtain a signature

Time was the number to wait for.

“Did you read the book? ”

“Of course.”

That's why I feel so good. That's why you've been leading people around like that with a kind face. I understand. I can feel a good smile on his face. I asked to share my emotions.

“Have you read Alexandria? ”

“No, I read the short version first. So Alexandria was only halfway through. ”

He took his finger to the mouth. It means don't talk about the end. He's left the most delicious part.

“You must feel really good. ”

“Very well.”

I'm excited just to think about it. My heart skipped. I know that feeling. It was the same for him, as second place noticed and said.

“You saved the pieces? ”

“Yes.”

This time, there was a slight leap of dominance on the face of 2nd place.

“You won't be disappointed. ”

“Is that so?"

At that time, there was a broadcast asking for a line of signatures. When I went to the place, I saw members who shared a meal with me. I passed them and stood at the very front. It felt like Alexandria. Tried and captured. The first sign of coincidence was his. Stand behind yourself.

You look at the circles. They're having a discussion about coincidences. Everyone was excited. Time began again to wait for the sign to begin. Members were talking about coincidences.

“I also think the most peculiar thing about coincidence is its style. Sublimation was a huge shock to my reading life. It was like listening to a dolphin's spear. I've never seen anything like it on stage before, but I love it. ”

“I am the Dribble of the Mesh. When you drive a ball, you hear genius. ”

“I remember the first time I went to the movies. ”

“It was similar to the cultural differences I felt during my first trip abroad. Something unfamiliar and charming. ”

The line continued for a long time as the story continued. Some people were just waiting for an accidental writer to show up and some people were reading unread parts. The people who have already read it are overwhelmed.

As time approached, an employee gave me a post-it note and pen. Used to write a name there for coincidence. I was impulsively thinking of writing down the nickname for the café, or Alexandria, but I decided to go seriously. I'm looking at a yellow post-it with three names on it.

I started to feel nervous. As the first signed reader, I remembered what to say when I encountered coincidence. These were the words I had set out last night. Say hello first. It tells me that I have read your writing since the birdstream. Requesting photography and shaking hands

C. Break up and ask one last question. How do you feel about writing? I wondered for myself how a coincidental writer might feel about writing. How does it feel to work? How do you feel about living in the world?

“Is that a coincidence? ”

You see someone approaching from a distance. He was coming toward two posh, set tables and empty chairs. People have already taken out their cell phones to just watch without getting an autograph. What is number one? You can see coincidence in the closest place.

The sound is getting louder. Screams echo from all sides.

“Hello."

It's a coincidence. As soon as I realized it, I was confident that I was screaming as if the bookstore was leaving. The staff are embarrassed. Coincidentally, they turn their heads and look at the long standing line and the crowd, smiling slightly. I took a breath into his smile. Coincidentally laughs. I feel like I'm buzzed by the screaming from the front and from the back.

C. I didn't realize that the coincidence in front of me was a real person. The members of the proceedings stood as if by chance. On one side, a reporter holds a camera and shoots the first sign of coincidence. Equipment that was not comparable to the camera on the phone held by the spectator.

“I'm so nervous. ”

“Me, too."

You hear members behind you. The same is true of you. You stand vacant and have a coincidence in your eyes. Nearby people wear a nametag with the word staff on their necks.

“Here we go. ”

One of the staff told me. The employee realized that he had to go first. Shortly after walking down the street, my legs trembled. I placed the book on a velvet tablecloth. The book was opened in the editor's hands and handed over to coincidence. Coincidence.

I checked the name on my post-it and signed the paper. It's white in my head.

“What time did you get here? ”

Coincidence speaks to me. My mouth moved freely.

“Six o'clock. ”

I said that and felt a little embarrassed. It was like a bragging voice.

“Wow, you're fast. ”

Well done.As expected, I'm the one who brags. The flash erupts and continues to cheer intermittently, but it appears to be a coincidence in his eyes. I could only hear voices of coincidence.

“Didn't we make eye contact this morning? ”

Coincidentally, you nod vigorously. I knew it was a coincidence.

“I saw you in the front. It must have been rewarding to be here so early. ”

“Yes, because he wants to be number one. It's the front, but I'm not ignoring the people behind it. There.”

The words twist. The contents of the book I just read remind me, and I inadvertently make excuses. Something's been stabbed. I remembered how I called people inside today. Coincidentally, she smiles a little, finishes her autograph and returns the book.

“It's like Alexandria. ”

I felt something incomparable. It was the order of the next person after his turn. I looked back at those who were waiting for their turn. I empowered my hollow hand. I couldn't even take a picture of the handshake. Second place is just sharing a handshake.

I see. All this time I've known myself and Alexandria. Everything in the late novel wasn't number one, wasn't number two, wasn't number 300. Just Alexandria. In elementary school, she had her own characteristics. In the novel, tardiness was unique. Egg

Alexandria was unique everywhere. There was no reason to ignore others, no reason to fret in her life. That's why I liked Alexandria. I put my hands on my chest. This overwhelming heart could not be photographed, nor could I feel a handshake.

“Thank you for writing. ”

He said in the screams of the people. I don't know if it was a coincidence, but it was true. I want him to know that one of your readers has this in mind. I don't know if he'll sign another autograph, but I will. So, oh.

I'll tell you a story I can't always tell. I decided to turn away from the crowd. People who had just come to buy books were also looking at where the cheer was spreading. The moment I left the bookstore with pride, I had to be surprised again.

“Where does this line lead? ”

There was a line outside the bookstore. People are lining up the bookstore. Climb the stairs, wrap around the flowerpot, and turn sideways to continue.

“What line is this? ”

“Coincidence Sign Association. ”

“Do you want us to stand in line? ”

The policemen who were clearing the roads and the workers who were building opposite them were also interested. The cars on the road lowered their windows and looked at this place. I walked backwards in a line. I met the eyes of those who stood in line in the sun. The people who saw the book in their arms and noticed the water

It was.

“You got an autograph?”

“Yes, I was the first. ”

I say it with clarity. I accept the other as well.

“Maybe it's finally begun. ”

There was a man sitting quietly. You line up the stones on the floor. You see the stone in front of you. First place. I laughed as I read the book. When we get home, we'll have to see the pieces first. I went back the way I had come with a big heart.
