Many people came to the ceremony .
His dad and his family . As well as his friend Jongjin and Suhee .
Tewon and his wife Dongmi came as well, and Jonggu and Gyungsu from Hetae Media too .
Minho and Hyeongyung from the office gave up a day of writing to come .
“This guy actually cared about his clothes? Didn’t it get better from before?”
Jongjin whispered to Suhee beside him .
Suhee smiled and nodded .
She couldn’t get her glance off of Jaegun .
Jaegun was saying his speech up on the podium with his fancy clothes .
“This is really good, Jaegun . He looks so big even though he’s this far away . ”
“Yeah, he doesn’t feel like my friend anymore . It feels so weird . ”
“But, he’s not talking about the fantasy that he wrote?”
Suhee asked quietly .
Jongjin looked around and whispered .
“I think they wanted to keep quiet about that . Because there’s still the question of selling from the Contest side . The literary readers might feel angry . ”
“I see…”
“It will get known someday . Just not right now . I understand . ”
Suhee nodded as well .
Jaegun was concluding his speech .
“Thank you for everyone . But really, the motif for the main characters Sangjin and Heyoung deserves the most credit . The male main is one of my best friends . He came here together with me . ”
Jaegun looked towards Jongjin .
Jongjin felt emotional as he waved .
“… and someone else . She created the female main character who carried this story, so I’d like to express my thanks . She said she was busy so she couldn’t come, but I credit this book to her . Thank you . ”
From someone, the stage filled with claps of people .
Jaegun bowed his head 90 degrees .
The clapping noise didn’t know when to stop .
The cameraman took one more step .
His camera was only focused on Jaegun .
The ceremony was on the radio, the internet, and TV .

It was going up live for people with interest in literary works .
Myunghoon was one of these as well .
“That… IDIOT . He’s not saying anything…!”
His hand crumpled the empty beer can . ”
Myunghoon threw the can across the table .
And he brought another from the fridge .
“You have something . Right? You’re feeling guilty . Why can’t you say it? That you write fantasy? Are you ashamed? Of course, you should be . ”
Myunghoon muttered to himself .
He said he wouldn’t care . But he was still suddenly drinking one, two, three and more .
He turned off the TV and drank another bottle .
When he drank about half, he felt like he was going to throw up so he quickly stopped .
The beer spilled on his leg
“AHHH…!”
Myunghoon’s hands fell across the keyboard .
He had no thoughts in his blank head .
It was instinct .
-It’s the winner of Modern Teen Literary Contest . He’s actually that Pyung Cheon Yu;;;
-AH? That Ranking Series? That no meaning nonsense . I read anything but that, I really couldn’t read…
-There’s no way that should be a writer at all . To say it, fantasy shouldn’t even be writing .
-It’s nonsense for a reader who likes writing . This award to that type of writer . I’m ashamed .
-The judges should be better .
-I really feel worried about the writing of the future… .
Myunghoon wrote criticisms of Jaegun using different IDs and social media sites .
His face had a huge smile .
The drinks were greatly increasing his happiness .
‘’Can’t you say it yourself . Then I will help, as a colleague . ’
Tap! Tap! Tap1
Myunghoon didn’t know the time going past as he kept writing
His hands didn’t stop until he felt so tired .
“Ah… Ha Jaegun… Ha Jaegun…”
Myunghoon fell asleep in his chair .
His dark smile didn’t disappear after he was sleeping .

‘Ughhh…’
Jaegun was dreaming
In front of him, it was completely foggy .
Just in a while, he could finally see something .
Jaegun now knew he was on the ground, which was parallel to his body . A car’s engine sound was moving farther .
He felt a rough feeling on his nose
It was a feeling of fur . He could tell it was Rika . Rika started to lick his face everywhere .
‘Rika… rika…’
His voice didn’t come
He wanted to move but he couldn’t . His body was so heavy .
He felt someone’s hands . It was a strong and heavy hand . The hand was moving his hand across his bag’s zipper . And then, he could hear footsteps moving quickly away .
‘I didn’t get to finish… it…’
His mind started to blur . At the last moment, Jaegun reached out his hand and put it on Rika’s neck . Rika was crying at the sky .
“Jaegun, Ha Jaegun . ”
“Um… ugh…”
“Hey, Jaegun, wake up . Come one . ”
Jaegun opened his eyes quickly . He could see Jongjin’s worried face . Jaegun lifted his body quickly .
“Hey, what’s up . Nightmare?”
“…Dream?”
“Yeah, dream . Look at that cold sweat . Wipe it . ”
Jongjin gave him a towel .
Jaegun sighed and looked at his body without even looking at the towel . His body was covered in sweat .

‘Only a dream…?’
It was too realistic to be a dream .
He was on the ground for no reason with Rika . He could feel that hand in his memories .
“What is it? I’m worried . ”
Jongjin asked . Jaegun slowly turned and looked at him . Moving away, his glance was looking at the house .
‘Ah, that happened… . ’
Jaegun accepted it and took the towel . It was Suhee’s apartment .
After the ceremony .
Suhee and Jongjin and him went once more . Hyojin came in, and drinks were pouring . And they went to Suhee and the 4 friends drank till the night ended .
“Hey, Ha Jaegun . You’re still drunk?”
“No, I’m not awake . But the house is quiet?”
“Suhee and Hyojin went to the mart . To give us food . About 30 minutes? They’ll be here . ”
Jonjin tapped him .
“Go and clean up . ”
“Ha, Ok . ”
Jaegun smiled and went to the bathroom . He could hear Jongjin’s voice as he closed the door .
“There’s a toothbrush and a shaver on the sink . Use that . Suhee put it out . Towels’ in the drawer . ”
“Ok . ”
Jaegun took off his clothes . It was a track suit .
It was something that his brother wore when he came, Suhee said . Jaegun opened the shower door .
‘This is good . Maybe I should get something like this . No water comes out of the tub . ’
Jaegun cleaned himself . He used the toothbrush and the shaver .
“Are you done?”
Jongjin turned around .
Jaegun stood next to him . The view from above was beautiful .
“This is great . When will I have enough for a place like this?”
Jaegun smiled at that .
He knew Suhee’s family was rich . She never said it but he could feel it .
“About 500,000 dollars?”
“More, probably . Today’s houses are crazy . ”
“Wow . Let’s see . My wage is 30,000… Save about 20,000… give me a cigarette . Are we allowed to smoke here?”
“Stop it . ”
Jaegun turned around . He didn’t get to look around the house yesterday . He toured around the house .
‘It’s like Suhee . ’
The interior was comforting and clean .
Jaegun moved around the TV and went to the next room . It was a study .
