Chapter 5 – Is This Canned Food .
“Ah? Suhee . ”
Suhee whose back was facing the sun laughed awkwardly . In her hands was a pack of sushi .
“I called but you didn’t answer,”
“Ah, really? I was working so I must have not seen .
“I was going to a place for work so I was passing by, I felt like you didn’t eat yet .
Suhee slurred her words and lifted the bag . Jaegun felt awkward . He could only think of the black bean noodles that Somii and he ordered .
“Ah?”
Suhee glanced downward . Pink sneakers that weren’t there before were laid orderly there . It was a small size so it was obvious that it was a girl’s .
“You have a guest at your house . ”
At that moment that she said that .
Somii appeared in the back of Jaegun . The two girls who didn’t know each other couldn’t greet or say anything so they stood there close mouthed .
Jaegun explained to both sides .
“Ah, this is my publisher’s editor Jung Somii, and Somii, this is my college friend Lee Suhee . She’s the team leader at a game company and the game scenario I’m writing is from her as well . ”
“Ah, hello, I’m Jung Somii . ”
“…Hello . ”
Unlike Somii who greeted with a full bow, Suhee just slightly nodded her head .
“Come in . ”
“Hm . ”
Suhee took off her shoes and went in .
There were two desks and two notebooks . One was Jaegun’s and one was Somii’s . Looking at the feeling of the room, it felt like they were in there for a long time .
‘Strange . ’
Suhee didn’t understand .
Jaegun was writing the game scenario that she had given him . It was a work that she had no relationship with Somii so why are they together . Unlike the editor-writer relationship, it felt to her that it was more of a girl-boy relationship .
“Sit here . ”
Jaegun took out the legs of a folding table and said .
“Actually we ordered two bowls of black bean noodles . ”
“Ah, really? Then I might have bought this for no reason . ”
“No, it’s fine . I eat sushi well . Also one bowl is probably not enough . Do you want anything? I can call and add one . ”
“No I’m fine . I already ate . ”
Suhee lied . The sushi was also for 2 because she was going to eat with Jaegun . Now she didn’t feel like she wanted to eat with a girl that she had never met before .
“How’s work?”
“Ah, It’s going well . Only need about 2 more hours until the Oh Sumin quests are done . Since I have a editor’s eyes, the progress is going great .
Jaegun smiled as he glanced towards Somii . Suhee looked at the awkwardly smiling Somii and continued .
“Are you waiting for Jaegun’s finished work?”

“No, I already got Writer Ha’s works . ”
“Then why…?”
Instead of Somii who couldn’t answer very well, Jaegun answered .
“I asked her to give me canned food . ”
“Canned food?”
“Yeah . I’m a person that writes better with an editor, so I grabbed Somii who was planning to leave after delivering a gift .
“I see . ”
Suhee nodded her head acting unemotional and straightened her legs . The bad feeling didn’t disappear but it was awkward for her to ask further so she switched the topic .
“Next week is Professor Han Hesun’s birthday, you know?”
“Ah, it’s already next week, I know . ”
Han Hesun was the professor that taught modern novels in college . Jaegun with many other student admired her . She was a great teacher that gave it all to teach the students .
When students went with their own works outside office hours, she never rejected them . She guided them word by word with passion . So that was why many students even though they graduated still visited her .
“Are you coming? It’s Saturday night . ”
“Hm, Saturday?”
“You liked her . Let’s go together . Call Jongjin, too . ”
“Ok, I know, let’s go . ”
Jaegun answered willingly . Then Somii who was next to him asked in a quiet voice .
“Saturday night?”
“Yes? Why?”
“It’s only… the writer’s meeting is on Saturday night . ”
“Ah, really?”
Jaegun was nonplussed . The meeting that he declared that he was definitely going to go was on the same day .
Suhee’s two eyes narrowed and were showing her light . But she came back to her normal calm expression and said smoothly looking at Jaegun .
“The writer’s meeting is from the publisher right? If it’s not a meeting that’s urgent then let’s go together, professor’s birthday is one day a year .
Before Jaegun could answer, Somii answered .
“The writer’s meeting doesn’t happen that often either . And StarBooks really wants Writer Ha Jaegun to attend . He’s writing very good books so the place will shine if Writer Ha goes . ”
It was Somii with a careful tone but she said everything that she wanted to say .
Suhee tilted her head to one side .
“There’s not just one or two people from the publisher . Is there a problem that Jaegun can’t attend?”
“That’s not the reason . The other writers would also definitely want to see Writer Ha . As I said, he is writing great books right now . ”
“But Jaegun should choose right? I asked first too . ”
“Oh, you didn’t know . He already agreed to go to the writer’s meeting before you came . ”
The two girls were having a conversation smiling at each other . But with their glances and their eyes, Jaegun could feel the heat from their conversation .
‘What is this? Did Somii also get a bit angry?’
Somii’s emotions coming from Rika became rougher .
The bright spring blurred and it was turning to a gloomy place about to storm thunder .
Ring!
The delivery man’s ringing looked to Jaegun as a savior’s ringing . He bounced up, took his wallet, and went to the front door .
“It’s two black bean noodles right?”
“Yes, here . ”
Jaegun handed over the money and brought the noodles to the table . In the mood between Suhee and Somii, who were both looking at each other, felt very cold .
“Somii, eat . Suhee, won’t you eat a bit?”
“I’m really full . Don’t mind me and eat . ”
Until the meal was over, no one spoke, Suhee was looking outside the window sipping coffee .
‘Ah, I feel like I’m gonna have a bad stomachache . ’
He stood up after he ate the sushi and the noodles . It didn’t feel like eating too much was the only reason for a stomachache .
“Thanks for the food . Now I’ll be going . ”
Somii was getting up as she finished eating .
Jaegun couldn’t hold her any longer . To put the bowls outside as well, he brought her to the front door .
“Thanks for today . ”
“I just did my job today next to you . Thanks for the meal . I’ll see you again, sir . ”
“Bye . ”
Jaegun left Somii and went back to his room . Suhee was still looking out the window touching her coffee cup .
‘I can’t connect with Suhee . ’
For some reason, no emotion could be felt from Suhee . The thought came that maybe it was because Rika was rejecting her .
‘There’s no other way . I don’t have much time so I’ll have to write like I was writing before . ’
Jaegun sat back down and put his two hands on the notebook .
He was about to start, when he was curious about Suhee and turned around and asked .
“Are you ok? No need to go to the company?”
“I’m the team leader . There’s no need to be in the company forever . I have no meetings as well . ”
Suhee with a slight smile continued .
“I’ll help you do canned food as well . ”
“What?”
“I’ll be with you until you finish the game scenario . You said that was personality type? I’ll say again, I am in a hurry . ”
“Ah, Hm… ok . ”
“You don’t like it?”
“No, no, that’s not it”
“How long will it take?”
“Hm, about 3 more hours . ”
Rika went up to Jaegun’s knees and crouched .
Jaegun caressed Rika’s neck . His glance that he just randomly threw around was being stuck on Se Gunwoo’s old laptop .
‘…Maybe?!’
A thought passed through Jaegun’s brain like lightning .
It was the urgency to finish this scenario by today that made him not think about that .
He had thought that Se Gunwoo’s powers had just went through him with his body . But now, he had felt something new with Rika: the power to share emotions .
Therefore, he hadn’t thought of that . Maybe the power to write 10,000 words was stuck in that laptop of his?
‘Maybe the machine has that power? It’s possible . The things that happened to me all made no sense . ’
Jaegun pushed his new laptop away and turned on Se Gunwoo’s laptop . Suhee asked puzzled .
“Why change? It looks very old . ”
“It thought that maybe a laptop that feels right to the hands might be better . ’
Jaegun said and moved the file to Se Gunwoo’s laptop and opened it . And he started with Suhee watching him .
Tapapapap! Tap Taptaptap! Tapapapapapapapap!
‘This is it!’
The finger couldn’t even be seen moving across the keyboard .
He could tell by typing . It was because of the computer that he was able to type so fast . It was different from the power that came through his head .
“Incredible…! Jaegun, were you always this fast?!”
Suhee was completely baffled with her mouth opened .
It was creating something from his head not something that was already written . But it was this fast .
“Just wait a second . I might be able to finish in about an hour . ”
“O, ok . ”
Jaegun did what he said . It was about 1 hour when he finished . He stood up and said to Suhee .
“Look it over and tell me . ”
Suhee with a doubt sat in Jaegun’s chair and started reading . As she got into the book, she started to smile . With a clear meaning plus humor, everything was there .
“It’s funny . ”
Suhee said with her eyes on the screen .
“This is great . You’re great . It’s been awhile since I’ve worked beside you . How could you do something this good… I saw you differently today, Jaegun . ”
“Don’t lift me up too much . ”
“I’m not . This is good . Therefore, the urgency has been cleared . Let me send this to my email .
She got up after she sent the file to her email . Jaegun finished his work so now she had work to do .
Putting on her shoes, Suhee joked .
“You really didn’t want to be with me, right? You finished this so fast . ”
“What are you talking about . It was because you looked over me that I was able to concentrate so well . You used to look over me in college as well . ”
“You speak well as always . And thanks . Ah . ”
Suhee turned around as she was about to leave .
“You’re coming? Professor’s birthday .
“Ah, Hm . ”
“Call me, ok?”
Suhee didn’t wait for him to confirm and just ended it there . Jaegun nodded . Suhee laughed for the last time and disappeared through the hallway .
“Haa . ”
Jaegun stretched, being in the room with only Rika around . Maybe it was because of the stress, but he was completely exhausted .
‘But I can’t rest here . ’
Jaegun walked with light in his eyes . He need to check something quickly . The mug cup, the glasses and the pen all went into his hand . They were all things that were with Se Gunwoo’s laptop .
